    Tua has so far been the best player in college football on the best team. Theres your Heisman winner dummy.

    Agreed Tua started moving the ball via air. Other qb was too one dependent on running the game and not able to throw worth beans. Tua would have much better stats if he played every down this year. Plus just one int. Case closed . gl all

I like greer but he hasnt had a better season than either of those two. I think possibly facing oklahoma twice would help his case, if they win then he is put on a pedestal especially if he plays well which he would have to do to win twice. grier is on a worse team than both of them and I like looking at guys like him more still a hard decision if they beat ou twice you might have to have him at the ceremony.
    this is all so true. i keep expecting ONE of his deep balls to be off target and they are all just sweet. i have never seen a college player throw such an accurate deep ball with ease. granted i didn't watch mahomes as i am not into video game football in the big 12.

    Kyler Murray said Monday that even though he thinks he could play in the NFL, he's still preparing to move on with his baseball career and give up football after this season.

    "As of now, that's the plan," Murray said.

    This summer, Murray was the ninth overall pick of the Oakland Athletics in the MLB Draft. He agreed to a deal with the A's that included a $4.66 million signing bonus.

    I was in vegas a few months before the season started and bet a few hundred dollars on Tua for heisman at +900. I asked them what the limit was and they said 10k. Most casinos had him at around +900. Put down the few hundred dollars I had in my wallet, went to the bank to pull out 10k and came back. Every casino had him at +300/+400 and he was the favorite in 10 minutes of time of me being at the bank. Has anyone seen a line move that much? The heisman line was up for a few weeks at that time and there was no way my few hundred dollars could of moved the line that much. Or did a whale hit that line the same time as me?

This looks like the perfect set up for these two teams to eliminate themselves from the Playoffs and for each QB to eliminate the other from winning the Heisman.
    I like Grier also but it's going to Tua by a mile:
    abcislands- odds
    10951 TUA TAGOVAILOA (ALABAMA) -1000
    10952 DWAYNE HASKINS (OHIO STATE) +2500

    10954 SHEA PATTERSON (MICHIGAN) +5000
    10955 TRAVIS ETIENNE (CLEMSON) +5000
    10956 WILL GRIER (WEST VIRGINIA) +1000
    My hope is Grier getting an invite to the Heisman ceremony. $22 to win $88

    oklahoma big game and alabama loss to georgia make kyler highly possible...... i know Tua has played good teams but has he played a stifling defense yet? (no idea whether georgia qualifies) i think it's still a possibility

    LSU and Miss State both have good defenses. Miss State's D line is a pretty darn good one. Beat both teams by over 20 points.

    Actually, Bama has beaten every team so far this year by more than 20 points. That's 12 teams by more than 20 points.

    i thought him and tua showed a lot of class and came off as really good kids. they were both deserving imo. the above post on the other hand shows no class at all. just makes you sound like a bitter crybaby who doesn't know a lot about this game. 9 teams scored 10 or more on bama this season. none of them were half as good as this ou team on o. several were very poor offensive teams, and one was the citadel. they may well lose by double digits, but they are laying some points down.

    Great college QB. Deserves the award.

    Not your typical NFL QB. He should go to MLB.

    I wonder if you could name five players on each team without looking...

    OU will definitely score more than 20 in this game.

First 12
