Last Week: 286 yards passing 2 TDs 3 INTs, 39 yards rushing 1 TD at Baylor (24-52) Next Week: Bye
Comments: It was an all around bad day for everybody involved with the KState football program. Not only did their perfect season and shot at a National Title hopes go up in flames, but Collin Klein had a clunker of a game. Now he didn't lose his lead in the race, and is still the favorite to win the award. But the gap between him and the rest of the field is a lot narrower now. Luckily for him there really isn't anybody knocking at the door. But he'll need to finish the season strong or somebody could find their way into the discussion for the award.
Last Week: 267 yards passing 3 TDs 1 INT, 100 yards rushing 2 TDs vs Sam Houston State (47-28) Next Week: vs Missouri Comments: Another quality game for Manziel and the Aggies as they trounced FCS Sam Houston State. Manziel was his normal having 367 combined yards and 4 TDs. This was a great showing especially with KState QB Collin Klein struggles against Baylor. This performance closes the gap between the two, but is it enough to get him some votes? Not being able to play in the conference championship game hurts. But you also have to wonder if him being a freshman will hurt his chances too? Remember when Tim Tebow got the award as a sophomore and people having a problem with it? Who knows, but it's hard not to argue with Manziel's season and impact.
Last Week: 66 yards rushing 0 TDs, 13 yards receiving 0 TDs vs Stanford (14-17) Next Week: at Oregon State
Comments: This is two straight weeks of clunkers for Barner. After an impressive 321 yard rushing day against USC, he's kinda fallin off. He only had 63 yards against Cal and now in their loss to Stanford, Barner was unable to do anything and finished with only 79 total yards of offense. Ouch! His Heisman chances were remote, but it's beginning to look like he's out of the running. But you could say that about anybody besides Collin Klein and Johnny Manziel. Barner just has to hope that he has two monster games left and Klein and Manziel have a couple of clunkers. But that doesn't look likely. But he should still get an invite to New York.
Last Week: 6 tackles vs Wake Forrest (38-0)
Next Week: at USC
Next Week: at USC
Comments: It wasn't a spectucular game against Wake Forrest, but that was expected as Notre Dame was clearly the better team. Te'o finished with 6 tackles but didn't play much into the 4th quarter. Te'o's final game to impress is this upcoming weekend agaisnt USC. But with USC being down a big game won't have the same impact it did a couple of weeks ago. Te'o's chances of winning the Heisman are slim at best, even with being on the #1 ranked team in the BCS. But as a defender and not having a "dominant" season it was going to be hard to get enough votes. Even in this down year.
Last Week: 97 yards passing 0 TDs, 48 yards 0 TDs at Wisconsin (21-14) Next Week: vs Michigan
Comments: Much like the guys ahead of him, Miller didn't have an impressive Saturday. Against a good Wisconsin team, Miller only had 145 total yards and 0 TDs. Not what we are use to seeing out of Miller this year. But the Buckeyes got the win and that's all that matters. Now Miller looks to the Michigan game to end the season. Much like Barner and Te'o, Miller's chances of winng the award is long gone, but a good showing aganist the Wolverines and Miller should find himself in New York for the ceremony. This could also give him some momentum for next year as he should be one of the favorites.
