How the Heisman Trophy winners timeline game works

College football's most famous individual award supplies the cards: Heisman Trophy winners, with school and position printed below each name. You're sorting them by the year each won the award. One winner starts on the timeline with the year in view. For every new card, pick a gap among the winners already placed. Get the spot right and the year turns up; a wrong one still sends the player to his true slot but costs you one of three lives.

The trophy's whole history is here, from its earliest winners to recent college stars, with halfbacks, ends, quarterbacks and running backs all in the mix. Schools with several winners spread across the deck add to the confusion. Players who became NFL stars are easier to place; those who never made it as pros are where you'll lose lives.

Want a longer game? On the deck tree you can tick this deck alongside any other one measured in release years and dates, and they shuffle into a single timeline together.
