Watching Heisman race as season nears halfway mark
Things to Watch Week Heal
In this Aug. 30, 2014, file photo, Mississippi State quarterback Dak Prescott (15) waves to the fans after defeating Southern Mississippi 49-0 in an NCAA college football game in Starkville, Miss. The Heisman Trophy race, much like the playoff chase, took a detour last weekend. The presumptive favorite, Marcus Mariota of Oregon, was unable to prevent his team from being upset. Prescott emerged as a legitimate contender for Mississippi State and a couple of guys who were trending in September - Kenny Hill of Texas A&M and Ameer Abdullah of Nebraska - cooled off.
