Moore and the Heisman

[bonefish1]

I originally brought this up after the NU game. I think we can honestly start the hype train for Moore. I mean, why the hell not? How often to you get a candidate, AND I honestly believe he belongs in the discussion. Other than having a couple of KO/Punt returns for TD, the kid has had more of an impact on games than any other player. Hell, he doesn't even need to get the ball to impact the game.
Go watch Knox's 2 long TD runs and watch how the D shifts simply because Moore goes one way or the other, it's amazing.

While I agree with you about all of Moore's attributes, especially with the defense following him on certain routes which open up DJK or the TEs, Tua is winning the Heisman this year. I can't see anyone else coming close at this point. If Moore continues what he's doing, I can see him being in the discussion for a finalist.

He will be on the watchlist next year. Barring an injury, Chi is correct. The award is Tua's

Dude is destroying everyone he plays. He has earned it so far.

Looks like ESPN experts make their ballots on Tuesdays. Last week Tua had 9/10 votes for 1st, with Haskins getting the other one. Tua should get all 10 now even though statistically Haskins had a ton of numbers. Another player that got votes last week was Memphis' RB who only had 15 yards against Missouri. Not sure if there was an injury.

It’s turned in to the best player on the best team...award has lost some significance imo. No reason why Bryce Love shouldn’t have won it last year.
