Louisville football’s Lamar Jackson has a chance of winning the Heisman, but can he win with a team that didn’t win the National Championship?

Louisville football’s Lamar Jackson is clearly the favorite to win the Heisman Trophy this season after having an incredible year. Jackson has been the clear front-runner for every week and has handled the pressure in a solid manner.

However, there are some people out there who believe that he shouldn’t win the trophy because of the lack of success from the Louisville football team.

We decided to go back and take a look at the last ten Heisman winners and see how their teams finished their Heisman seasons:

2015: Derrick Henry | Running Back | Alabama (14-1)

Derrick Henry was an absolute beast for the Crimson Tide last season, as he led them all the way to the National Championship over Clemson. He was drafted by the Tennessee Titans and has done a great job backing up All-Pro running back Demarco Murray.

The Crimson Tide dominated their 2015 schedule last season. Their only loss of the year came against Ole Miss in September, where they only lost by six points.

It was very clear that Henry was the best player in the country and that wasn’t just because he was on the best team in the country.
