In a small sampling of college football media, 27 of 33 Heisman Trophy voters say they would consider Jameis Winston for the award even if the sexual assault case involving the Florida State quarterback is unresolved before they vote. Winston has not been charged, and prosecutors said Tuesday they likely will need about two more weeks to decide whether to bring charges on the nearly year-old complaint. Winston has led No. 2 Florida State to an unbeaten record and is considered the favorite. The AP emailed 92 media members who cover college football, including all 60 of its Top 25 college football poll voters, this question Wednesday: ''If there is no resolution in the criminal investigation involving Jameis Winston before the deadline for Heisman Trophy voting, would you drop him from consideration because of the current allegations against him?
