Travis Hunter continues to impress as a two-way player, excelling in both offensive and defensive roles. He may have already delivered his Heisman moment by forcing a critical fumble at the goal line, securing an incredible overtime victory for Colorado against Baylor.
In his subsequent game, Hunter logged nine receptions for 89 yards and one touchdown, alongside an interception in a standout defensive performance. Acknowledging his exceptional season, Hunter celebrated with the Heisman pose during the match.
Ashton Jeanty of Boise State has made a strong argument for the Heisman as well, accumulating 845 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns on just 82 carries. Jeanty’s highlight reel continues to grow, as he averages an astonishing 10.3 yards per carry.
Meanwhile, Miami narrowly escaped a potential last-second defeat against Virginia Tech thanks to a controversial Hail Mary pass, maintaining their unbeaten streak. Much of this success is credited to senior quarterback Cam Ward, who has consistently thrown for over 300 yards and at least three touchdowns in every game.
Though he hasn’t had a standout performance yet, freshman quarterback Nico Lamaleava from Tennessee has shown glimpses of brilliance with his agility and impressive deep ball accuracy.
On the defensive end, Jihaad Campbell is establishing himself as one of the premier linebackers in College Football, currently boasting 19 solo tackles and one interception.
