re: Nix vs Daniels

Well, he played the whole game against a vastly inferior opponent just to pad his stats. Is that on him or the head coach? What if he'd suffered a career ending injury in the last five minutes of the game? Would you be bragging now?

Both are more than deserving. Hats off to both guys for continuing to improve and get to this level. No one could have guessed they would be two of the last three standing for the Heisman before the 2022 season began.

Like Bo Nix.

He left the game in the 3rd quarter, you fricking imbecile.

Bo Nix didn’t play the full game against ASU. Hell, their last TD was from their backup QB Thompson.

1 first half fumble vs. more passing yards, more completions (on fewer attempts), more rushing yards, more TDs, higher QBR…

Like I said, may want to check again

Coonass is developing a theory wherein Heisman recipients are judged on their career, not each individual season.

Individual Heisman voters use whatever criteria they want. It's sad that anyone could be too dumb to get that, but hey, good luck in life.

He had 5 TD’s at half. He would still be the best QB in the country.

Who would you want on your fantasy team?

Bo Nix for sure. Not only is he a better football player than Daniels, he can take a man size hit and not puss out of a game because of it.

Hell, my dog got an acceptance letter from LSU the other day. I just threw it in the trash.

Who had the turnover that resulted in their team losing. I think Jd! He fumbles on ole miss 23 yard line who couldn’t stop the blind that day on defense. Y’all punted 1 time all game y’all score that drive y’all win 56-55. Both Q’s had 5 Td’s but bitch boy can’t hold onto the ball. King Dart 0 turnovers. That’s outplayed to me if you watch football.

Clutch guys win the Heisman. This is why Daniels will lose.

He's better than Daniels

He is good.

But it's hard to deny watching Daniels play that he isn't one of the best athletes ever to play D1 QB.

3000+ yds passing and 1000+ yds rushing with a .200+ rating, that's a Heisman in any year.

Nix is deserving as well in almost any year.

It's going to come down to a few things.
Do voters bias themselves, as in past years, to preference the best player on the best team? If so, Nix gets their vote.

Do they dive deeper to account for SOS and seek to find the most "outstanding" player most important to their team? If so, Daniels gets their vote.

Exposure and hype matter. Which school/conference starts to promote their contenders? Oregon getting an extra high-profile game on CCG weekend will be hard to overcome if Nix keeps pace and gets even with Udub. LSU must roll out a campaign to give him the shot he deserves.

The odds are tight right now, and it's a two-horse race.

Regional voting will be interesting. Daniels is likely absorbing a lot of #3 picks in Pac country due to Penix and Nix, which would be costly, as there isn't a justifiable #2 pick for Southern voters to counter with or an equal amount of voters regionally.

Midwest cleaned up some, with McCarthy possibly playing his way out of serious consideration. What the Midwest and NE do with Harrison, Jr compared to Nix or Daniels will be monumental.

Big 12 country is wide open. Daniels needs to win it there.

If both Nix and Daniels stay healthy and keep serve with production, it will likely be one of the closest Heismans in a long time.

I hope JD5 pulls it off. The kid is special. Both are deserving, but Daniels, to me, is the best choice. He shouldn't be held accountable for a defense that has killed any chance the team may have had to be successful, but, unfortunately, he likely will be.
