Oklahoma QB Kyler Murray beat Alabama QB Tua Tagovailoa in the Heisman Trophy race Saturday night.

Once the votes were tallied, it was one of the closest races in Heisman history.

Perhaps the most interesting aspect of all of it is that Oklahoma and Alabama play in the College Football Playoff, and the Tide’s defense has a huge opportunity to make a big statement.

Murray had one of the best seasons in history for any quarterback, as did Tagovailoa. Either signal caller was certainly worthy of the award.

Following the news, Alabama players voiced their displeasure with Murray winning over Tagovailoa:
