I saw someone saying the top 4 Heisman candidates right now are Tua Tagavailoa, Kyler Murray, Will Grier and Dwayne Haskins. I'm not sure if there are any obvious other candidates left out of that. But so far, who do you think deserves the Heisman?

Murray has been a monster, tua has been robbed by a coach not letting him pad stats in blowouts.

Really can’t argue with either choice.

Tua has been better when on the field, but Murray has the counting numbers.

I agree! Grier too, his stats are comparable with the others and he's done it in only 4 games instead of everyone else's 5. Although like you said, the total quarters that Tua has played likely amounts to well less than even 4 games.

Honestly, as much as I've pointed out how Alabama hasn't been tested yet, it's even worse for Oklahoma. Who is their best win? None of their opponents are even remotely close to being ranked while at least A&M is getting a few votes. 4 of the 5 teams Murray have faced are ranked 80th or lower in defensive efficiency metrics.

Haskins has faced two defenses ranked in the top 30. Murray, Tua, and Grier have faced 0 combined.

I think this sums it up nicely.

Fair point. I admit I look at the West Virginia offense the same way I look at the Washington st offense.

Tua in an absolute runaway. Not even close. 75% completion rate while averaging 14 yards per attempt. 14 tds and 0 int and he only plays half the game.

66th, 70th, 101st, 109th, 126th

These are the defensive efficiency rankings of his 5 opponents this year

Will Grier is West Virginina. I vote for him.

But Cole McDonald is better than everyone.

One of the most accurate QBs (standing in the pocket, on the run, under pressure) that I've seen in a long time.

If I had to have any player on my team, it'd be Tua. His stats aren't there, but the kid is the most gifted player in the nation.

1. Tua
2. Murray
3. Grier

Big gap after the top 3, then Haskins, McSorley and Laviska Shenault.
