Heisman Watch list
1) Bryce Love, HB, Stanford, Sr., 5-10, 202 = After Christian McCaffery left people thought that
the Cardinals would stumble a bit, but Love proved them wrong. He broke the school
record for yards in a game against UCLA, then broke it again against Arizona
State. Injuries slowed down the end of his season but he still amassed 2,118
yards with 19 Tds. He’s got a strong OLine in front of him, and a Coach that
likes to throw in Tight Ends who not only can catch but can block as well. If
Love can stay healthy for the whole season it wouldn’t be a shock if all single
season NCAA football rushing records are within his reach.
2) Jonathan Taylor, HB, Wisconsin, So, 5-11, 214 = What a difference a year makes, this time last year
Taylor was a Freshman who had just changed his commit from some Div.-II school
after being shocked with an offer to Wisconsin. Then the truth freshman beat
out all comers and 1,977 yards, and 13 tds later with a 6.6 yard average he’s
now the toast of Madison, Wisconsin. With the monster Offensive line in front
of him that some say is the best in the land, the sky is the limit for this
kid.
3) Will Grier, QB, West Virginia, Sr., 6-2, 215 = All Set to take the mantle as the next stud QB from
the Big 12. The only question is can he stay healthy, and can he put up enough
points to get his team into the Top 6-8 at least. He’s got the talent, the
WR’s, and the OLine to protect him. The Mountaineers might be the most dangerous
team nobody is looking at.
4) Jarred Stidham, Auburn, Jr., 6-3, 214 = Stidham is showing the leadership, and arm that had
him as a top 5 QB talent in High school. Went to Baylor then JUCO all the way
to Auburn. He could end up being not only the best QB in the Country, but the
Heisman trophy winner. Especially if they can jump up and upset Alabama. Last
year he had a shoulder injury that lasted most of the season and he still put
up 3,158 and 18 Tds. He’s got all his WR’s back. Only time will tell if he can
sprinkle some magic on the Tigers season.
5) Trace McSorley, QB,
Penn State, Sr., 6-0, 200 = The
Nittany Lions are now his team. Saquon Barkley is now a NY Giant, so all eyes
will be on him. If he can have a season like last year and avoid those bumps in
the road they had last year then he should firmly be in the hunt. He’s not that
big, not that strong, not that this, not that that. What he is, is a play
maker. He reminds me a lot of the old school quarterbacks who ran around people
and make crazy throws that won big games. Penn State will have to be in the
hunt for not only the Big 10, but the final four for him to really have a
chance.
6) Shea Patterson, QB, Michigan, Jr., 6-2, 203 = A former number two overall HS QB prospect who has
had a tough time. First he signs with Ole Miss and starts to look like what he
was projected to be only for a Coaching scandal to destroy that program. Now
he’s at Michigan, and if Jim Harbaugh is the QB Guru he’s been labeled to be
then this is the perfect fit for him. Now this is my long-shot in the Heisman
as he’s been sitting out his transfer year here. But I just have a feeling that
he might not only turn his career around but might have Michigan back in the
title hunt. Nothing gets you in the Heisman race like taking a big name
National power into a National Title race. This kid has the arm, and legs to
put up big numbers, only time will tell if he can fully integrate into the
Harbaugh system.
7) Kyler Murray, QB,
Oklahoma, Jr., 5-11, 190 = Much like
the last Heisman winner from the Sooners, Murray isn’t all that big, and isn’t
all that much to look at. He was drafted 9th overall by the Oakland
A’s in pro baseball, and has said he won’t turn pro yet because he wants to
spend his time concentrating on football. He hasn’t played much yet sitting
behind Baker Mayfield after transferring from Texas A&M (Where his Dad
played QB). I have only seen a little bit of it, an ability to make big plays
much like Mayfield. If he can transfer that into a whole season then the race
might be over. He reminds me a lot of Lamar Jackson with some Baker sprinkled
on. He’s got a good arm, with crazy feet who can stop on a dime and take off
for the end zone like a sprinter. If Murray can bring it the way Mayfield did
he’s got a real chance.
Those who would have a chance with some luck and a
Monster record breaking season
1) Ed Oliver, DT, Houston, Jr., 6-3, 290 -
Outland Trophy winner as a sophomore. 1st team AA as a true
freshman. He will have to really make some noise.
2) Nick Bosa, DE, Ohio State, Jr., 6-4, 263
- Just like his brother he causes teams to adjust their game plan around him as
he terrorizes their QB. Will have to have a lot of turnovers in big games. Will
need to take over those big games on TV.
3) Gary Johnson, LB, Texas, Sr., 6-0, 225 - Didn’t start until the 9th game of the
season after being a 1st AA in JUCO. Not many LB’s can claim to be
the fastest man on the field, but he can with his some say sub 4.3 speed. He
will have to get some great Td returns to even be mentioned.
4) Andraez “Greedy” Williams, LSU, So, 6-2, 185- As a freshman last year he took over the mantle as the next great
Tiger cornerback. 6 interceptions and people are starting to fear his side. If
he can have another great season along with some returns for tds he might have
a Charles Woodson chance. He will need to set up a no-fly zone this season the
way he ran one in high school.
