    Heisman Race


    1. Saquan Barkley - Off a bye week, is expected to do big things this coming up week against Michigan
    2. JT Barrett - Was a mad man this weekend.  Had 7 out of the 8 td's his team scored.  Barrett has had a remarkable career.  So far responsible for 136 touchdowns during his tenure.  If they win out, and he continues to play this way, hand this man the Heisman       .Image result for jt barrett
    3. Bryce Love - Leads the nation in rushing in a landslide.  He is an explosive runner.  His downside is his team may not get the big wins/recognition.  Had 17 carries 147 yards 2 touchdowns in week 7.
    4. Mason Rudolph - Is 2nd in the nation in passing yards.  Threw for 459 yards 3 tds this past weekend.  To stay in this race his team has to WIN
    5. Jalen Hurts - Has played very consistent, has the best team, and has thrown only 1 int this season.  Although his numbers are not amazingly huge, it's gonna be hard to leave Hurts out of the race if his team keeps winning
