There are two ways of looking at that. Notre Dame and Ohio State have 7. USC won 7, but forfeited one due to controversy, leaving them on 6. So they could be said to be third. The third highest total is for the Oklahoma Sooners, who have 5.

Who picks the Heisman Trophy winner?

The fifty states of the U.S. are split into six regions, and six regional representatives are selected to appoint voters in their states (the regions include the Far West, the Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, Northeast, South, and Southwest). Each region has 145 media votes, for a total of 870 votes. In addition, all previous Heisman winners may vote, and one final vote is counted through public balloting. Although voters still attending college can not vote until said player's collegiate career is over. The Heisman ballots contain a 3-2-1 point system, in which each ballot ranks the voter's top three players and awards them three points for a first-place vote, two points for a second-place vote, and one point for a third-place vote. The points are tabulated, and the player with the highest total of points across all ballots wins the Heisman Trophy.
