Trell's Race for the Heisman Week 6 Edition

Image
1. Marcus Mariota (IDLE) Mariota was on a bye week Saturday but his play throughout Oregon's first four games is more than enough to keep the junior quarterback the front runner for the Heisman.  Marcus leads the nation in completion percentage (74%) and quarterback rating (218.0). Huge conference game coming up for the Ducks as an undefeated Arizona team comes to Eugene. Consistent play in conference games provide a resume booster when its time for Heisman voting. Expect Mariota to continue putting up big numbers. 2. Kenny Hill (21/41 386 yards 4 TD) Kenny Hill had his first "Heisman Moment" this week versus Arkansas. Hill completed two passes in the final 2:29 to tie the game and a touchdown pass in the first play of overtime to win. The sophomore Hill is top five in passing yards, touchdowns and quarterback rating. The Aggies will travel to #12 Mississippi State. A couple Heisman moments in this game could make "Kenny Trill" the new Heisman front...

Trell's Race for the Heisman Week 5 Edition

1. Marcus Mariota (21/25 329 yards 5 TD | 58 rush yards) Mariota completed 84 percent of his passes and 5 touchdowns to beat a pesky Washington State team. Three of Mariota's five touchdowns came in a closely contested second half. The Ducks QB has attempted 96 passes and 13 touchdowns without throwing an interception. Not only is Marcus Mariota the front runner for the Heisman, he looks to be the number 1 pick in the next NFL draft. 2. Kenny Hill (16/22 2 TD | 57 rush yards ) Kenny Hill continues to impress me with his poise and play making ability. Despite throwing his 1st interception of the season vs SMU, Hill continues to lead the SEC in passing yards. After Saturday's match up against Arkansas, Texas A&M will face three ranked SEC West  opponents in a row. That stretch will determine if Kenny Hill is Heisman material or just took advantage of a sub par non conference schedule. 3.  Todd Gurley (6 carries 73 yards) Gurley had a short day against Tro...

Trell's Race for the Heisman Week 4 Edition

1. Jameis Winston ( IDLE ) - Winston and the Seminoles had the week off and is preparing for #22 Clemson. A "Jameis Winston like" game versus the Tigers in Tallahassee will secure his spot as the Heisman frontrunner. 2. Marcus Mariota ( 19/23 221 yards 2 TD | 71 rush yards 2 TD ) Mariota filled the stat sheet up in a 48-14 rout over Wyoming. 292 total yards from scrimmage and 4 total touchdowns is a good momentum boost going into the Ducks first road game of the season versus Washington State. 3. Kenny Hill ( 20-31 300 yards 4 TD ) Hill has thrown 117 pass attempts without an interception to start the season. Second four touchdown game in as many weeks.  Texas A&M travels to Dallas to play the SMU Mustangs. Expect "video game like" numbers from Hill this week. 4. Everett Golson (25-40 259 yards 3 total TD)  After missing last season, its seems like Golson has not missed a step. The Notre Dame quarterback QB rating is 26 points   higher than hi...
