Heisman - Week 13

1) Graham Harrell (previously #1) – QB Texas Tech (Season: 4,438 yds, 39 TD, 5 INT, 6 rush TD)

361 yds and 3 TD in a crushing loss to Oklahoma. This is the problem with college football as it is now. Texas, Texas Tech and Oklahoma are all 1-1 against each other. All of their Heisman candidates are having great years, but who do you put #1 on the ballot? And who gets to play in the national championship game? Let’s just have a four, six or eight team playoff and get it over with.
Next: vs. Baylor

2) Colt McCoy (2) – QB Texas (Season: 3,134 yds, 30 TD, 7 INT, 527 rush yds, 8 rush TD)

Off last week, but can you move to #1 on this list after not playing? I don’t think so.
Next: vs. Texas A&M

3) Sam Bradford (3) – QB Oklahoma (Season: 3,710 yds, 42 TD, 6 INT, 4 rush TD)

304 yds and 4 TD in the biggest game of the year vs. Texas Tech.
Next: at Oklahoma St.

4) Tim Tebow (4) – QB Florida (Season: 2,114 yds, 22 TD, 2 INT, 427 rush yds, 11 TD)

201 yds, 3 TD, in not quite a full half against the Citadel. If Tebow is playing for a national championship come January 2009, the Heisman is going to have four legit contenders, especially if none of the Big 12 teams make it.
Next: at Florida St.

Dropped out:
Michael Crabtree (5) – WR Texas Tech (Season 84 receptions, 1,072 yds, 18 TD)
A disappointing 6 catches for 62 yds and essentially an elimination from the Heisman race.
Next: vs. Baylor
