With just two weekends remaining before the big announcement, college football’s most outstanding players have time for one final push to prove they’re worthy of the sport’s top honor.
Wisconsin's Montee Ball doesn't get as much Heisman press as some of the others in the running, but he's having a great season for the Badgers, with 1,466 yards and 25 TDs
The home stretch kicks off at noon EST on Friday, when Houston’s Case Keenum plays his final college game at Tulsa. Keenum, a Davey O’Brien Award finalist, is first in total offense, passing yards, passing touchdowns, and touchdown to interception ratio, and second in pass efficiency. He doesn’t have too much more he can do to prove his worth to the Heisman voters: the sixth-year senior has already set five NCAA records this season, for career passing yardage, career touchdown throws, career completions, total yards of offense, and points.
