TROY SMITH (OHIO STATES)-WINS HEISMAN TROPHY 2006

The Buckeyes were No. 1 from start to finish and their star quarterback had no real challenger in winning the Heisman Trophy. Smith was a runaway winner Saturday night as the best player in college football, just two years after nearly derailing his career by taking money from a booster. The senior quarterback moved to the front of the Heisman race in September with a flawless performance against Texas and finished off a perfect regular season by throwing four touchdown passes against Michigan. "Normally, I'm pretty cool in pressure situations, but my heart is pounding really fast now," said Smith, who had big hugs for his mother, sister and coach Jim Tressel before taking the podium for his speech.
