Oklahoma QB Baker Mayfield received the 2017 Heisman Trophy on Saturday night in New York. The balloting showed two SEC players in the top 10, with Auburn RB Kerryon Johnson placing ninth and Georgia LB Roquan Smith coming in 10th. With Johnson as the SEC's leading vote-getter for the 2017 season, here are some numbers on Auburn's Heisman history:

0 First-place votes were received by Auburn RB Kerryon Johnson in the 2017 Heisman Trophy balloting. With his ninth-place finish, Johnson is the first Auburn player known to have a top-10 finish in the Heisman voting without receiving a first-place vote. Johnson received 14 second-place and 17 third-place votes in the balloting to total 45 points.

1 Auburn player has finished among the top vote-getters in the Heisman Trophy balloting twice. QB Pat Sullivan placed sixth in the 1970 Heisman race before winning the award in 1971.

1 Auburn player has finished fourth in the Heisman Trophy balloting -- FB Ed Dyas in 1960.

1 Auburn player has finished 10th in the Heisman Trophy balloting -- RB Rudi Johnson in 2000.

2 Auburn players have finished seventh in the Heisman Trophy balloting -- QB Jimmy Sidle in 1963 and QB Jason Campbell in 2004.

3 Auburn players have won the Heisman Trophy -- QB Pat Sullivan in 1971, RB Bo Jackson in 1985 and QB Cam Newton in 2010. Four schools have had more Heisman Trophy winners than Auburn -- Notre Dame, Ohio State and Southern Cal with seven apiece and Oklahoma with six, including Baker Mayfield, the 2017 winner.

3 SEC Player of the Year winners have finished ninth in the Heisman Trophy balloting, including Auburn RB Kerryon Johnson, who finished ninth this year and was the SEC Offensive Player of the Year for the 2017 season. In 1977, LSU RB Charles Alexander was the SEC Player of the Year. In 2007, LSU DT Glenn Dorsey was the SEC Defensive Player of the Year. Both Alexander and Dorsey finished ninth in the Heisman balloting in those seasons.

3 More first-place votes were cast for 2017 Heisman Trophy winner Baker Mayfield than 2010 Heisman Trophy winner Cam Newton received. The Oklahoma QB's 732 first-place votes pushed the Auburn QB to sixth on the Heisman's list for first-place votes received in one balloting. Southern Cal's O.J. Simpson, the 1968 winner, received 855 first-place votes, Ohio State's Troy Smith received 801 in 2006, Oregon's Marcus Mariota received 788 in 2014 and Florida State's Charlie Ward received 740 in 1993.

4 Times the highest-placed SEC player in the Heisman Trophy balloting has finished ninth, including this year with Auburn RB Kerryon Johnson, and in each case, an SEC player also finished 10th. This year, Georgia LB Roquan Smith finished immediately behind Johnson. That also happened in 1965, with Florida's Steve Spurrier ninth and Alabama's Steve Sloan 10th; 1977, with LSU's Charles Alexander ninth and Florida's Wes Chandler 10th; and 1987, with Florida's Emmitt Smith ninth and Alabama's Bobby Humphrey 10th.

5 Auburn players have finished sixth in the Heisman balloting -- E Jim "Red" Phillips in 1957, RB Tucker Frederickson in 1964, QB Pat Sullivan in 1970, RB Brent Fullwood in 1986 and RB Tre Mason in 2013.

8 Times an Auburn player is known to have been the SEC's highest finisher in the Heisman balloting, including this year, when Auburn RB Kerryon Johnson came in ninth. In addition to the three winners from Auburn -- QB Pat Sullivan in 1971, RB Bo Jackson in 1985 and QB Cam Newton in 2010 -- the Tigers' other SEC leaders were RB Tucker Frederickson, who finished sixth in 1964; RB Brent Fullwood, who finished sixth in 1986; RB Rudi Johnson, who finished 10th in 2000; and QB Jason Campbell, who finished seventh in 2004. An Auburn player might have been the SEC's highest Heisman finisher in other years, too, because 12 of the 83 released voting totals for the trophy do not include a player from the conference among the leaders.

9 SEC players have finished ninth in the Heisman Trophy balloting, including Auburn RB Kerryon Johnson this year. The conference's other ninth-place finishers have been Florida QB Steve Spurrier in 1965, Tennessee LB Steve Kiner in 1969, LSU RB Charles Alexander in 1977, Alabama QB Walter Lewis in 1983, Florida RB Emmitt Smith in 1987, Alabama DE Eric Curry in 1992, Kentucky QB Tim Couch in 1997 and LSU DT Glenn Dorsey in 2007.

45 More points were totaled by Auburn RB Bo Jackson than by Iowa QB Chuck Long in the 1985 balloting -- the second-smallest margin of victory in Heisman history. The smallest margin of victory came in 2009, when Alabama's Mark Ingram finished 28 points ahead of Stanford's Toby Gerhart.

78.8 Percent of the Heisman voters in 2010 made Auburn QB Cam Newton their first-place choice, the highest rate for an SEC winner. The smallest percentage of first-place votes for an SEC winner came in 2009, when Alabama RB Mark Ingram was the first-place choice of 24.5 percent of the voters.

404 Points are the most collected by an Auburn player in the Heisman balloting without winning the trophy. RB Tre Mason reached that total in 2013, when he finished sixth. Mason received 31 first-place votes, 121 second-place votes and 69 third-place votes that year. First-place votes are worth three points, second-place votes are worth two points and third-place votes are worth three points.

842 Points was the gap between Heisman winner John Huarte and sixth-place finisher Tucker Frederickson in the 1964 Heisman voting, the smallest margin for an Auburn player who did not win the trophy. The Notre Dame QB collected 1,026 points. Between Huarte and Frederickson were Tulsa QB Jerry Rhome, Illinois C Dick Butkus, Michigan QB Bob Timberlake and Notre Dame WR Jack Snow in second through fifth, respectively.

2,263 Points were garnered by Auburn QB Cam Newton in the 2010 Heisman Trophy balloting, the most accumulated by an SEC player. Newton set an SEC high mark with 729 first-place votes in winning the 2010 Heisman.
