GrantNKY Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Who are your Heisman favorites based on the first 5 weeks of the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantNKY Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 If you get the chance to watch a Stanford game this year, you need to watch Bryce Love. If Stanford can finish the year out strong with some big wins then Love deserves to be in the conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantNKY Posted October 1, 2017 Author Share Posted October 1, 2017 It's still Barkleys to lose though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldrambler Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 1. Barklay - Penn St. 2. L. Jackson - UL 3. J. Hurst - Bama 4. B. Mayfield - OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jalen Hurts is no where near the Heisman conversation right now. He can play himself up there for sure, but he's not there yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugatti Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Joel Klatt was pointing out biases in the whole process last week. Barkley really started to vault up everyone's list after the Purdue victory and most were citing his numbers as to why he should be a lock to make it to NYC. Christian McCaffrey easily had 5 games better than Barkley last season (down season by McCaffrey's standards) and the dude was left in Palo Alto.

RoyalWildcat Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 1. Barklay- Penn St. 2. Hurts- Bama 3. Mayfield- Oklahoma It's between those 3, I don't think Jackson is in the running this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

East Coast bias playing strong with this one. Just please go watch Bryce Love and tell me he isn't in the conversation. He has been every bit as impressive as Barkley if not more so. I don't care what anyone says Love is in the conversation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian McCaffrey should have won the Heisman 2 years ago and should've been in NY last year. If he had played for an East Coast power both of those things would have happened.

GrantNKY Posted October 4, 2017 Author Share Posted October 4, 2017 Will someone illuminate me on what Jalen Hurts has done to be in the Heisman conversation? He hasn't beaten anyone except FSU and he didn't play well at all against FSU. Let's hold off a bit on this guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldrambler Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Jalen Hurts is no where near the Heisman conversation right now. He can play himself up there for sure, but he's not there yet. that's your opinion, I have mine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantNKY Posted October 4, 2017 Author Share Posted October 4, 2017 Best offensive player on the best team. He'll be there. Care to explain why a guy from a crappy Stanford team makes your list? Because he is one of the best players in the sport. Jalen Hurts isn't right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrantNKY Posted October 4, 2017 Author Share Posted October 4, 2017 If you want to go the whole best player on best team route, why not go Kelly Bryant? His numbers are better than Hurts and he's actually played teams with a pulse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
