Heisman Watch

Finally there's a few more fresh faces on my Heisman watch list. We'll see if these guys can last a while. There seems to be a good mix of position players. It's not ALL about the quarterbacks....

Here's this week's Heisman watch.


1. Colt McCoy - Texas QB

Last Week vs. Missouri
Passing
29-32 337 yards 2 tds
Rushing
11 23 yards 2 tds

Season Totals
Passing
160-197 1894 yards 19 tds 3 ints
Rushing
70 371 yards 6 tds

This is one constant on my list. Colt McCoy provided another example as to why even Timmy Tebow thinks he is the front runner for the Heisman. Granted, Missouri players probably don't even know how to spell defense, let alone play it. There's still no way a QB should go 29 for 32 against them! The road just keeps getting tougher for McCoy as he gets prepared to take on the Oklahoma St. Cowboys this weekend.



2. Sam Bradford - Oklahoma QB

Last Week vs. Kansas
36-53 468 yards 3 tds

Season Totals
170-238 2520 yards 26 tds 5 ints

Bradford set all kinds of records against the Kansas Jayhawks' "defense" on Saturday. Sammy probably still has to hope for McCoy to lose for him to become the front runner once again. The way things are looking, I'm not so sure that will happen. At least Bradford will still get an invite to the NYC.



3. Graham Harrell - Texas Tech QB

Last Week vs. Texas A&M
44-56 450 yards 3 tds 2 ints

Season Totals
222-318 2761 yards 23 tds 5 ints

Harrell slipped a bit from last week mostly in part to his two interceptions. It's hard to maintain your spot on the Heisman watch when guys behind you are having near perfect games. The fact that the picks came against a not so good Aggie team also hurt him. Harrell will have a big shot to prove himself in a few weeks when Tech takes on the Longhorns.



4. Jarrett Dillard - Rice WR

Last Week vs. Southern Miss
7 141 yards 3 tds

Season Totals
53 815 yards 14 tds

Dillard is the second Rice player to grace this least so far this season. He joins QB Chase Clement as the two Owls to make this extremely prestigious list. The NCAA career receiving touchdown leader is at it again this season. Clement to Dillard is among the elite duos in the country. It's a shame more people don't get to witness this tandem.




5. Dez Bryant - Oklahoma St. WR

Last Week vs. Baylor
11 212 yards 2 tds

Season Totals
45 809 yards 11 tds

Dez Bryant completely leapfrogged a bunch of nobodies to make his first appearance on this list. Bryant is quickly proving that Jeremy Maclin is no longer the most dangerous receiver in the Big XII. If it weren't for the WWL completely ignoring OK St. for whatever reason, this guy would be a household name by now. We'll see if the pressure of making CFB 365's Heisman watch will be too great for him to handle this week.



The Next Five:

1. Percy Harvin Florida WR
2. Donald Brown Connecticut RB
3. Javon Ringer Michigan St. RB
4. Chase Daniel Missouri QB
5. Matt Grothe South Florida QB
