Hesiman Watch 

Post#1 » by studcrackers » Mon Sep 29, 2014 5:13 am

so we're about a third of the way through the season and I'd figure since we're getting a decent amount of traffic (all things considered) for this board, i figured id make a Heisman thread for here.

im probably forgetting smoebody, so feel free to chime in if i did, but who do you feel is leading the Heisman Race thus far? the candidates I have are, in no particular order are:

Amari Cooper

Todd Gurley

Marcus Mariota

Melvin Gordon

Kenny Hill

who do you think is in the lead thus far?

I'm a bit of a homer, but I say Cooper. Not since Justin Blackmon has a wideout dominated like he has and nobody thus far has really separated themselves from the pack

Dak Prescott has vaulted himself into the conversation. Between this game vs the aggies and the very impressive road win at lsu he's probably at the top of the list for qbs

Watson should get some love but won't win this year at least.

I think Gurley will win it.

Winston- scratch
Gurley- scratch
Hill (TAM)- scratch
Hill (BYU)- scratch

The front runners, as of now, and in no particular order:

Prescott
Mariotta
Gordon
Cooper
Abdullah

there is still time for others just outside the radar:

Carden (ECU)
Marshall
Golson

Anyone else?

tevin coleman is probably a long shot but he's having a great year, and he's really adding to it today

I think Prescott deserves serious consideration. If MSU keeps winning he'll be a real strong candidate.

Abdullah has that Heisman moment from McNeese State but Sparty beat the hell out of him.

A little OT but I now vote for just about every award except the Heisman and O'Brien awards so if you feel passionately about a candidate for Biletnikoff, Bednarik, Tyler Rose (best player in/from TX), Rimington, Mackey, Lombardi go ahead and sell me. Although it's going to be hard to sell me on anyone but Amari Cooper for the Biletnikoff.

I think Kevin White from West Virginia deserves some Biletnikoff consideration. He is absolutely torching secondaries in the Big 12. I know it's an underachieving conference, but that kid has been lighting it up all year long.
