Pat Forde discussed a hypothetical Voldemort ballot -- he SWEARS it's hypothetical -- and has McCaffrey third, behind Henry and Watson.  He also completely discounts McCaffrey's return yardage.

It's pretty aggravating that people are just looking for reasons to discount him. I also really, really hate that whole "let's look at the defense ranks and average them, because that's meaningful" thing. Why do people think that tells you anything? Not only does the shape of the distribution matter, but because of the wide variety in offenses in CFB you don't really learn anything about quality that way. It's just lazy.
