One football player from the state of Oregon has won the Heisman Trophy. His name is Terry Baker and he joined John Canzano on The Bald Faced Truth to talk about winning the trophy and Civil War week.

The Civil War isn't the only big story here in the Northwest in regards to college football. The Heisman Trophy race is also heating up and Terry spoke with John and gave his thoughts on the battle.

"It's not who gets out of the gate the fastest it's who finishes at the finish line at front. These last couple of games are just very important of how these candidates finish, they can fade in a hurry, a injury can do it a couple of bad games will do it and you just hold your breath."

Terry and John talked about what the Civil War meant to the players and the fans.

"They were a lot like any other game, maybe a little bigger being the last game of the season and all that but I've never had this deep felt hate for Oregon that some Beavers do. Some of the kids I played high school football with and good friends of mine were playing for Oregon the very time I was playing against them."

Terry and John also spoke about the rivalry between the Beavers and Huskies and how recruiting has changed in college football over the years.
