Toby I am not sure about, but Luck had far more exposure.
For two straight years Luck was discussed as the likely #1 NFL draft pick and started 2011 as the Voldemort favorite. He was heavily covered and didn't lose out because he was over-looked.
Mostly, nobody (broadly speaking across the country) was paying much attention to McCaffrey until the und game. That game got a lot of viewership, and McCaffrey wasn't particularly spectacular; though the attention und paid to him helped Hogan kill them through the air. The CCG also got lots of attention, though more afterwards than during because the other two games at the same time had higher rated teams. There's been a brobdingnagian rise in McCaffrey coverage and praise starting around Sunday - which was rather late for votes due Monday.
