HEISMAN NOTES .. 

DRIVER SEAT .. Fernando wins the champ game and he wins the heisman easy .. like eaaaaasy ..

Beyond Fernando this gets real iffy but here's a guess as to who holds the cards and the keys and a guess as to which order they might fall in .. 

CO-PILOT .. Pavia being easily the biggest name and human highlight reel and best most fun story and player in CFB might actually be in the driver seat if Vandy sweeps the remaining schedule and DP pitches 2 heisman worthy games vs Kentucky and @Tennessee en route to a playoff selection .. There's a reason he's back down to 10-1 when he has no champ game to play in .. and that reason is obvious .. #DIEGO-ESTA-MI-NEGRO .. 

Beyond that its super duper iffy .. 

NEXT UP .. Julian Sayin just romps RUTGERS, MICH and INDY in the B10 champ game .. he's in no uncertain terms playing BURROW BALL this year just as good as it gets.. BUT ... frankly nobody knows Julian Sayin LOL!!! ....  OSU just beating everyone so bad never really created a heisman moment or much interest on this guy in any H2 of any game ... maybe vs Texas however nobody even knew his name then lol .. he is 100% the best QB in CFB, best performance this year by far .. but .. Heisman's have to be foraged thru the crucible of CFB .. you don't get diamonds without any pressure and Sayin has been under exactly ZERO PSI this year .. There's a Zillion highlights I'm sure but I can't recall a particular great play he made .. I don't even know what he looks like .. and neither do you!!! .. that realllly helps Diego's chances because if it was Sayin's 2nd year starting or if it was Dante Moore or Carson Loser who were sweepin their conf under the rug like OSU has they'd be easily the shoe in and it would come down to them or Mendoza IMO .. 

WILDCARD .. Jer Smith .. 3 massive games to end the season needed .. I don't care if his cumulative stats aren't there allll the way because again right now is when Heisman's are made .. He's the best player in CFB and all the talking heads agreed on this pre-ssn .. AND .. it would be just ohhh-soooo very easy to prove themselves right about that should J-SMITH drop an A-BOMB OF PURE ELECTRICITY down the stretch and it can def happen .. Especially if they BOMB Michigan to take that series back in a big way and of course the B10 champ game gunna be MAX HYPED UP this year w OSU / INDY .. announcers can basically call it live on air if he shows up unstoppable ... Obvi that means Sayin will also be in the mix but the clincher for this is that J-SMITH is 'THAT DUDE' and everyone knows it .. while J-SAY for right now really is 'Just a Dude' .. Calling him 4th because lot gotta happen but frankly he miiiight be able to best Pavia going Heisman in the last 2 games if we see a legit string of PURE HARDWARE performances .. 

WILDCARD .. Haynes King .. Holy smokes I mean besides Pavia there is just NOBODY that deserves to attend the Heisman more than this dude .. 30-1 he's gotta beat Pitt, Beat UGA, win the ACC .. and obvi be the guy doing everything as he has all year .. Seems like the parlay to check all those boxes and hit the requirements to make the trip is closer to 50 or 75-1 because just any slip up and he's out .. but yeah holy smokes he'll be a tough out I'd say Fernando beating OSU would be his only road block .. so yeah add that box to check too .. 

Hey Bridge, thanks for the detailed breakdown of how things have changed in the CFB world and I really enjoyed reading the pool stuff as well. You know it's a weird season when the AUTO PLAYER is winning haha GL this week buddy

OP, would love to peruse your Early takes on massive SEC tolt witjh undefeated A&M visiting a 3 loss Longhorn squad in Austin Friday night??

Enjoy  your threads

SEASON WINS RECAP

8-5 so far ...  projection 11-7 .. 61% is def lower than we expected and certainly lower than we're used to .. Alas 13-5 feels like insanely lucky .. 12-6 feels like we need to get kinda lucky and I'd be very happy closing it out there with 66% .. 

2 LEAN WIN .. UAB should wrap up this weekend .. ARMY amazingly still kinda has a hail mary shot .. but we saw this coming with the spot @UTSA next week which is a revenge game on the road and one UTSA will need for a bowl game .. fully expect to get it done there .. hard to predict Army / Navy but I like our chances there too .. 

1 LEAN LOSS ..  FRIGGIN MARSHALL.. the pre-ssn read on the Sun Belt was the entire conf was set up to staaank with VERY low ret pro on so many teams and I think the lesson here is when you know the conf stinks just stay out of the 'Under' plays .. Coastal is another DOG CRAP team that sorta reinvented itself this year on the backs of this Crap Conference .. BIG contenders like Texas State and ULL turned out to be SUPER TRASH .. we even had Marsh lose to friggin Mizzouri State and still might lose this before the finale .. The saving grace here maybe that App State, while they surrendered to JMU last week taking it up the KEESTER for a full 60 mins .. This is a rivalry game at home and I'm not at all convinced Marsh should even be favored .. Old dom nice win but not convinced these guys are anything better than lucky to be in this 'make a bowl' spot .. Possible Marsh loses last two but yeah it feels like a couple coin flips and were like 25% at best to flip this one .. sheesh .. 

2 TOSSUPS .. TENN .. Really depends how Florida shows up and if they can make a game of it here .. they should .. big rivalry .. at home .. but man o man just a down n out team .. I think Tenn is favored vs the gators and should be at home vs Vandy but I still kinda slight lean that one of those teams step up .. one things for sure .. Vandy's commin .. MIZZOU .. @OU feels like a lock loss ..I would just note that this Mizzoo squad is showing up to this old B12 rivalry .. the tough part is the QB is still green but he's def an up n coming gamer .. Hardy w 300 yds last game .. we might him to jump back into the Heisman race with another 3 Balloon day .. prob is nobody's had a good day running vs the sooners and feels like Mizz will need to win like 9-6 or something .. hard to imagine .. - Finale @Arkansas is no sure thing Razorbacks are on a straight up WIN HUNTING MISSION and they'll carry that mojo into the finale .. I know this is a "rivalry" sorta but frankly I could see Mizzoo blow the rest of their load vs OU and the B2B road spot ends up being a killer .. We loved this team this yr but had major probs from the jump w the backup QB being injured week 1 along with their SUPER ACE SNIPER Kicker .. their current kicker was very iffy early on and we knew this team would be in some close ones this yr .. Pribula was a disappointment in his big games .. Hardy's stats were also in the big critical games .. I think its close to 50/50 very outside shot to beat OU and maybe favored vs Ark by a FG but my sense is it'll be a true tossup .. siiiiigh .. 

@Bridge1

 I took UNC under 7.5 wins and GT to win the ACC down at the Hard rock in FL prior to the season. Fingers are crossed…
