	Bowl Championship Series - Weinke wins 2000 Heisman Trophy
		Weinke, who spent six years playing minor league baseball before returning to school in 1997, finished off a record-setting season by leading the Seminoles into an Orange Bowl matchup against No. 1 Oklahoma with a chance for a second straight national championship.
		Weinke had 369 first-place votes and 1,628 points; Heupel, who led the Sooners to the title game against the Seminoles by passing for 3,392 yards and 20 touchdowns, had 286 first-place votes and 1,552 points.
		Over the past six weeks, Weinke's age became a Heisman issue even though voters are simply asked to cast their ballot for the "Outstanding Football Player of the United States." Some voters indicated they would leave Weinke's name off the ballot because the quarterback's age gave him an unfair advantage over his younger rivals.

		Weinke started 15 games at quarterback last season as a rookie last season, but has started only one this year in place of the injured Rodney Peete and last week was demoted to third string behind Peete and Randy Fasani.
		Weinke said he has not approached Fox or offensive coordinator Dan Henning during the season to discuss his personal concerns because he doesn't want to distract the team.

	The Johns Hopkins News-Letter
		The most talked-about aspect of Chris Weinke is his age, 28, which will make him the oldest recipient of the Heisman trophy if he indeed wins it this year.
		Standing in Chris Weinke's way is Josh Heupel, the star quarterback who led Oklahoma to an undefeated season with just one game left to play, the Orange Bowl.
		The clear favorite is Chris Weinke, although very strong cases can be made for all the candidates, especially Heupel, with his undefeated season, and Brees, who seems to be the sentimental favorite.

	Sports: Weinke's injury not serious
		Quarterback Chris Weinke learned Friday that his left foot is sprained and not broken, a diagnosis that keeps Florida State's march toward a possible second straight national champion in perfect step.
		Haney said he expects Weinke, a Heisman Trophy front-runner who injured the midfoot during Thursday night's 59-7 victory at Maryland so severely that he couldn't put weight on it, to be able to play against No. 10 Miami Oct. 7 at the Orange Bowl.
		Against Georgia Tech a few weeks ago, Outzen relieved Weinke for a series early in the first half and threw an interception on an out route that was returned for a touchdown, a play hauntingly familiar to a pivotal play against Tennessee.

		(Weinke had spinal fusion surgery before his junior season and spent much of last year hobbled by a painful foot sprain.) The NFL, views all prospects suspiciously, but Weinke appears to have transcended ordinary levels of skepticism.
		After Weinke gets suitably motivated by Singletary and the on-line "experts," he heads to the dome to work with former UCLA receiver (and quote machine) Freddie Mitchell.
