How the Heisman winner are determined each year:
The nation are split into six electoral sections, Northeast, Mid-Atlantic, South, Midwest, Southwest,
and Far West. The winner is selected by a panel made up of 870 media representatives from the print, Radio
and sports shows, 55 Heisman winners and one fan ballot for a total of 926 electors. The ballots are received and tabulated by the independent accounting firm Deloitte & Touche LLP.
Every past Heisman winner casts a vote as well. Each elector casts a ballot showing his top three choices.
The elector's top choice receives three points, the second receives two and the third receives one. The player
who receives the highest number of points across all three choices is the winner.
Heisman Trophy History
In 1935, the Downtown Athletic Club established the DAC Trophy, to be awarded to the best football player from
a college east of the Mississippi River.
John W. Heisman, who had become the club's athletic director after a long, successful career as a college coach,
died on Oct. 3, 1936. The award was then renamed the Heisman Memorial Trophy and has since been given to the
nation's outstanding college player.
