Derrick Henry takes a moment to snap a picture of Mark Ingram’s Heisman portrait
It’s a safe bet that a running back will win the Heisman tonight.
Alabama RB Derrick Henry is the frontrunner with Stanford RB Christian McCaffrey making a late push after a historic performance against USC in the Pac-12 title game last Saturday. The last time a running back won the award was in 2009, which was coincidentally the first and only time an Alabama player has won the award.
Ahead of his big day, Alabama’s official Instagram account put out a photo of Henry pausing for a moment to take his own picture of Ingram’s Heisman portrait.
The 2015 Heisman Trophy Presentation begins at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN.
