Johnny Manziel is living the dream these days.

He led Texas A&M to a 10-2 record and will play in the Cotton Bowl next month. The dynamic quarterback became the talk of college football over the course of the season, and on Saturday he became the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy.

And, he's dating a Texas A&M student who does some modeling.

It's good to be Johnny Football.

Call him Johnny Heisman.

Better yet, call him Johnny History.

Johnny Manziel, the fleet-of-foot quarterback from Texas A&M became the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy, besting Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o and Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein.

"This is a moment I've dreamed about since I was a kid," Manziel said. "Running around the backyard pretending I was Doug Flutie throwing Hail Marys to my dad."

(Associated Press)If Army's losing streak against Navy didn't end this year, then when will it?

Senior Army quarterback Trent Steelman sat heartbroken on the bench after the Black Knights fumbled with a little more than a minute to go, giving away their last chance to beat Navy. He sobbed on the bench and kept sobbing through the traditional singing of the alma maters, as teammates and even Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo tried to console him.

We all got to see Steelman's raw realization he would never beat Navy, and it was also apparent he understood how close Army came to breaking its long losing streak to its rival.

This Army team was supposed to have a chance breaking the streak, with Steelman and a good supporting cast. The Black Knights didn't play that well during the season, going 2-9 before Saturday, but did play well against Navy. They had lost 10 in a row to Navy, the longest streak in the rivalry's history, and most of those games weren't close. But here the Black Knights were, leading in the fourth quarter. Later, they were driving in the final minutes with a chance to win.

Most of Army's previous 10 losses in a row to Navy were blowouts. This one was just cruel.

It's always interesting to think what a coach is like during his first meeting with a new team. This is his first impression with the group of players whose performance for him will ultimately mean his success or failure.

Tennessee let us see at least a little bit of Butch Jones' first meeting with Tennessee, and it was very enlightening.

(USA Today Sports Images)Most of the coaching carousel moves we've seen so far have generally made sense. Bret Bielema going from Wisconsin to Arkansas was surprising, but at least it could be rationalized.

The news that Tommy Tuberville had left Texas Tech to replace Butch Jones at Cincinnati was the first real head-scratcher of the coaching moves we've seen the last couple weeks. This one is tough to figure out.

(USA Today Sports Images)Willie Taggart played at Western Kentucky, and came back to the school to be its head coach. It must have been bittersweet when he took the job to coach South Florida.

Western Kentucky probably has conflicted feelings as well. Happy for Taggart, who led the Hilltoppers to their first-ever bowl berth this season, but disappointed to lose him. Taggart was perfect to build Western Kentucky's program, which joined the FBS in 2009, to a competitive team in the Sun Belt. This season he called a trick play on a two-point conversion in overtime to beat Kentucky, then gave WKU fans a quote for the ages when he said, "I will tell you this: The WKU red is the new blue in Kentucky now, baby! How 'bout that?"

But, South Florida is close to home for Taggart, as well.

Three rather well-known Heisman winners in their high school days. (Seth Poppel / Yearbook Library)

In their day, they were the most famous college football players in the land. Before their day, they were high schoolers, just like you used to be. Recognize the three famous cats in the photos above? (If you don't get the middle one, you might need to read a sports page now and then.)

These three are part of Snakkle.com's Heisman winners yearbook photo collection. Others in the group include Jay Berwanger, the very first Heisman winner way back in 1935; Eric Crouch (2001); Jim Plunkett (1970); and many others from Heisman legend.

He attended Science High School in Johnson City, Tenn. before winning a Heisman with the Florida Gators in 1966. He now coaches South Carolina. Tim Tebow played for Nease High School in Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla. before winning his own Heisman for Florida in 2007. He is currently the most famous

(USA Today Sports Images)Only one time from the start of the college football season to the end of the calendar year does FBS schedule just one game on a Saturday.

Army vs. Navy has a special place in the college football landscape.

Plenty of college football fans will ignore the game this Saturday, for the obvious reasons. The game features two teams that haven't been among the elite in college football for decades. Navy has been a consistent bowl team at least, and is going to back to another with its seven wins already this year. Army collected just two wins all year, and lost to Stony Brook. The two teams won't play a game that is received well by anyone who likes passing football. The two teams have completed just 130 passes combined so far this season.

Yet, those who love this rivalry game - and there are many, judging by the 5.5 million, more than all but five of CBS' 18 nationally televised regular-season games last year, according to SportsMediaWatch.com - it's a great annual event.
