🏆 Southern California quarterback Caleb Williams received 544 first-place votes and won the Heisman Trophy on Saturday night, making USC the first school to take home college football’s most prestigious player of the year award eight times.

Ohio State's C.J. Stroud was third in the voting after coming in fourth last season. Georgia quarterback Stetson finished fourth. The top-ranked Bulldogs will face Stroud and the fourth-ranked Buckeyes in the College Football Playoff on Dec. 31. Williams and No. 8 USC fell short of the Pac-12 championship and a spot in the playoff, but it was still a rebirth for a college football blue blood that has had only short spurts of success over the last decade.
