Baylor First Heisman Winner Robert Griffin III

first  heisman winner
Baylor's Robert Griffin Third, Superman, when he won the Heisman Trophy he was wearing socks to prove it.

Who knows? They may even help him outluck Andrew good luck.

RG3 junior quarterback called the preseason on Saturday night to beat the favorite from Stanford University, became the first Baylor to take home the most famous trophy in college football players.

Right before his name, Griffin took a deep breath. When it was announced that he broke into a smile, his face, his long braided hair framed. Followed by hugs all around, his coaches, his parents, his sister and his fiancee.

He spent a few big stage, and let out a laugh when he got there, a joke about Superman socks - and the back of the cape - into his acceptance speech, he dressed.

"It is incredibly reliable," he said. "It is incredible, because in the moment, we are surprised when great things happen, but it's credible, because things did not happen without the great work."

Griffin this season Heisman talk, the marginal team talent and the edge of exciting players, but as luck has been touted on the 1st NFL draft pick.

Draft day is likely still a goodly portion of luck, but Griffin diverted, Waco, Texas, the Heisman has never done better than to vote a fourth player - and a school 48 years ago.

Griffin received 405 first-place votes and 1687 points. "Everyone associated with the Baylor have reason to celebrate tonight," he said.

Good Luck received 247 first-place votes and 1,407 points, becoming the fourth player's Heisman runner-up two seasons in a row and the first since 2006, Arkansas running back Darren - McFadden and `07 .

Luck also congratulated Griffin

, "Luck said," This is deserved by Robert Griffin. "It is difficult to break."

Alabama running back Trent Richardson 138 first-place votes and 978 points in the third. Wisconsin running back Montee Ball (348 points) Fourth, the other finalists, Louisiana State University, corner Tyrann Matthew (327) was fifth.

Griffin's speech was his game well.

He said: "If I were in the crowd laughed it much easier to make my speech," he said later at a news conference, showing off his familiar "S" in front of the blue and red socks.

Griffin is a super hero and cartoon characters, and a big fan of socks. His favorite socks: sponge.

But make no mistake, even though he is expected to win, he said: "My heart is beating really, really hard, I can feel it in my chest, as they say."

Griffin is simply spectacular highlight - left his signature moment eight seconds a long-term, cross-touchdown pass to beat Oklahoma - he put up stunning numbers, completing his passes 72% of 3,998 yards and 36 touchdown passes in a nation-leading 192.3 efficiency rating.

More importantly, he lifted Baylor (9-3) national attention and the greatest season in school history one. Bears win 15 ranked first nine games, the first time in 25 years to defeat Jie, the first time ever on November 4-0.

This is the first after winning the Big 12 season, a total of 15 games in April. Over the past three games? Oklahoma, Texas Tech University and Texas.

Luck from the current leader, in January, he was surprised to return to Stanford University for a season, rather than jumping to the NFL, became a millionaire. He did not disappoint, to receive 3,170 yards, 35 touchdown passes, completion percentage and 70% of the 167.5 rating.

Griffin is better than he used a similar formula: a brilliant leader and exciting conference opponents to play its powerful shadow, a private school in a program of oppression.

Good luck to catch up with one hand a sensation back in what turned out to the University of California, Los Angeles blowout victory. Nice.

Griffin received 15 yards in traffic, down in the opening 50-48 Baylor victory for TCU's game-winning drive to convert a key third. Better.

6-foot 2-inch, 220-pound sprinter's speed - he is 400 meters hurdles in the United States - some early Heisman buzz, but faded in October for the Baylor lost three or four. Griffin continued to pile video game numbers, but not enough to compensate for Bear "leaking national defense.

He completed a free-kick shot on November 19, when Baylor 45-38 victory over Oklahoma's Heisman charts. Griffin by 479 yards and four touchdowns on the Jie, including 34 games, caused a sensation, the game winner in the closing seconds, Terence - Williams.

He said his case, the last tournament on Saturday, capping and 320 yards passing and two TD passes and two touchdown runs in the 48-24 victory against Texas this season. At the same time, luck, and Richardson is idle, more than its normal season.

"It seems to write the perfect script, we go out and win this award," Griffin said.

At this point, it became apparent quarterback Don Trull in 1963's fourth place finish will no longer be standards.

, "Griffin said:" We have done a great job re-creation process.

He is known as alum two U.S. Army sergeant near Fort Hood's Bay, a town located in Central Texas son.

"My father, he gave me everything, he did not, and some," he said. "They say her mother's love is one of them, I can prove it."

This is a Baylor recruiting coup, land Griffin High School, although it is a package deal of things.

Griffin guilty of Houston and coach Art Briles, but when Baylor hired Briles, Griffin and coaches followed by a switch not even play in the bowl game since 1994 since the program.

"Our offense is quarterback friendly and there is no doubt," Briles said. "We know that Robert is a complete quarterback for us to find out the location."

Him as a 18-year-old freshman started 11 games in 2008 and 2009 season, three games knee ligament tear. He returned last year as good as new, with new-found commitment and love of football. He threw 3,501 yards, with a 7-6 record, since 1994, the first bowl appearance and LED Baylor.

This season, his passing has improved, he is still a dangerous runner (644 yards and nine touchdowns). He has left no doubt that he is a pro prospect, although he has a game - Alamo to Washington on December 29 in San Antonio Cup - to show his stuff.

An aspiring lawyer who is the Lord's degree in communications work, he has 46 school records and worship bear's fans pray for his coming back for more.
