Last Week: 372 yards passing 3 TDs 1 INT, 67 yards rushing 2 TDs vs Missouri (59-29) Next Game: Bowl Game
Comments: Remember a couple of years ago when Cam Newton ran wild in the SEC and broke the SEC single game yardage record? Remember he won the Heisman running away? Well with this recent game, Johnny Manziel just broke Newton's single season yardage record. Pretty amazing for anybody, let alone a freshman. With his 439 yard output against Missouri it could have cemented his candidacy for the Heisman Trophy. A&M not playing this week does hurt him a little, but with nobody else on this list besides Klein playing next week. It shouldn't hurt him too much. We could have another anti climatic Heisman Race.
Last Week: Bye Next Week: vs Texas
Comments: Losing against Baylor and then having a bye week right after it can't help Klein's chances at winning the award. Especially since Johnny Maziel has just taken off. That's too bad because Klein has had an outstanding year and helped carry the Wildcats to the verge of the National Championship game. But unlike the rest of the guys in the Heisman Race, Klein is the only one with a game left on the schedule and if he has a huge game against Texas, he could make giving out this award a lot tougher on voters.
Last Week: 5 tackles 1 INT at USC (22-13)
Next Game: BCS Championship Game
Next Game: BCS Championship Game
Comments: Te'o has been a force for the Notre Dame defense all season long. Te'o's 5 tackles put him over 100 tackles on the season (and for the third straight season). Te'o also registered his 7th INT for the seasons which is quite the feat for a linebacker. He also benefit's from Notre Dame being #1 and going to the BCS National Championship. Something that only he can claim.
Last Week: 189 yards passing 1 TD, 57 yards rushing vs Michigan (26-21) Next Game: Season Completed
Comments: Braxton Miller didn't have a huge game against rival Michigan in his final game of the season, but he did help the Buckeye's get the win and finish with a perfect 12-0 record. But even with the average game, it's hard to ignore the impact he has had on this undefeated team. On a team that didn't have many impact players, it was Miller who carried the load game in and game out. He used both his arm and feet to rack up the yards and get points on the board.
Last Week: 5 receptions for 75 yards O TDs vs Notre Dame (13-22) Next Game: Bowl Game
Comments: Marquise Lee didn't have a big game against Notre Dame's elite defense, but Lee also was dealing with a backup QB and not Matt Barkley. Still with constant double teams and added focus against him, Lee was able to get 75 yards and make an impact. It's also hard to ignore the season that Lee has had. He's totaled up 1,680 yard receiving and 14 TDs. Pretty amazing no matter the situation. Lee won't win the Heisman, but he is clearly one of the top 5 players this year and should be in New York for the Heisman Ceremony.
