5. QB Braxton Miller, Ohio StateStatistics: 56.9% completions, 1,753 pass yards, 14 TD, 6 INT; 1,166 rush yards, 13 TDMiller has largely flown under the radar with the Buckeyes serving a two-year postseason ban for infractions under former head coach Jim Tressel. Miller is also suffering due to a somewhat down year for the Big Ten, as usually strong teams like Wisconsin and Michigan State haven't played as well as in recent years. Right now, Miller is my likely front-runner for next year's Heisman.4. QB A.J. McCarron, AlabamaStatistics: 66.7% completions, 1,849 pass yards, 19 TD, 0 INTThere are other quarterbacks who have bigger numbers in both passing touchdowns and yards, but McCarron takes great care of the football, and his last-minute touchdown drive against LSU in Death Valley will go down in Crimson Tide lore.3.

Scott Ready For Bigger Role
With Jared Sullinger on the roster last season, Ohio State basketball coach Thad Matta did all that he could to surround the Buckeyes' philosophy around the All-American big man.
