What if OU produces another heisman here? I know its early, and Im not predicting it. I mean a third different, some might say undersized qbs, to win it. Pretty fucking remarkable if he is in the conversation at end of the season.
It would be amazing, for sure. I'm not expecting it, though.

I didn't really see a question in your post other that 'what if OU produces another Heisman QB' .. and that's not really a question see how wtf are OU fans supposed to say.
It would be an unprecedented occurance ro have three different qbs, in this time frame, and does it possibly mean more? Im asking them, not you dipshit. Its kind of a big deal, or potentially.
If I was an OU fan, I'd be pretty fucking happy with their recent history. Even though Clemson and Bama seem likely to win it all most years, OU is 3rd.

3rd is cool. Heismans are cool. All those awards are very cool.

But we're OU.........somehow we've become convinced as fans that we're entitled to something that looks like a National Championship and every fucking year is like kicking back in the drivers seat and unbuttoning those pants and whipping the wedding tackle out but that gals lips never quite make it to the clam hammer. NC BLUE BALLS FOR 20 GODDAMN YEARS.

OU football: The evolution of Jalen Hurts from ‘thrower’ to ‘passer’ — a knee, an inch and a little Lincoln Riley

How Jalen Hurts stacks up against Heisman favorites at QB

Oklahoma Sooners quarterback Jalen Hurts continued to show he’s got no chill when it comes to assessing himself or how outsiders have lauded his play through three games.

“We don’t listen to that rat poison now,” he told ESPN. “We want to focus on what we need to focus on, improve on the things we can improve on and try to build as a team.”

From the quote, you might wonder if OU lost its contest with UCLA on Saturday night at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif. Quite the opposite.

Hurts and the Sooners blasted the Bruins 48-14 and rolled up more than 600 yards of offense for the third straight game. Hurts accounted for 439 yards from scrimmage with 289 yards passing on 15 of 20 completions and three touchdowns and adding 150 yards rushing with a touchdown against the Bruins.

Through a quarter of the season, he has firmly placed himself in the conversation to win the Heisman Memorial Trophy. Take a look at the stats.

Following Week 3 of the 2019 season, he leads or is tied with Heisman quarterback favorites Joe Burrow, Sam Ehlinger, Tua Tagovailoa, Trevor Lawrence and Justin Fields in total yards and touchdowns.

Hurts: 1,253 yards, 13 TDs

Burrow: 1,162 yards, 12 TDs

Ehlinger: 1,077 yards, 12 TDs

Lawrence: 886 yards, 8 TDs

Fields: 771 yards,13 TDs

Tagovailoa passed for 444 yards with five touchdowns on 28 of 36 passing in Alabama’s 47-23 win against South Carolina. Burrow passed for 373 yards with two touchdowns and an interception on 21 of 24 passing in LSU’s 65-14 throttling of Northwestern State.

Ehlinger passed for 279 yards on 23 of 27 passing in Texas’41-13 win against Rice. Lawrence passed for 395 yards on 22 of 39 passing with three touchdowns and two interceptions in Clemson’s 41-6 rout of Syracuse. Fields passed for 199 yards with three touchdowns on 14 of 24 passing in Ohio State’s 51-10 win against Indiana.

Hurts led the group of four quarterbacks in passer efficiency rating for Week 3 too.

Hurts: 245.9 vs. UCLA

Tagovailoa: 227.2 vs. South Carolina

Ehlinger: 208.7 vs. Rice

Fields: 169.2 vs. Indiana

Lawrence: 156.6 vs. Syracuse

As The Athletic’s Bruce Feldman pointed out, Hurts has scored more touchdowns than 111 FBS teams and amassed more rushing yards than 45. He averages 14.4 yards per passing attempt and has thrown fewer incompletions (12) than he has scored touchdowns (13).

“I think he’s a special player,” Chip Kelly said. “As good as I’ve ever had the opportunity to coach against. I put Jalen Hurts, Kyler Murray, … and Andrew Luck are probably the three quarterbacks I coached against.”

All this, and Hurts has yet to play a full game for Oklahoma.
