Seriously? Way too many losses, and had to play against good defenses, making his stats lower.

I hope you all agree that dak is probably the best qb in the SEC I hope he gets drafted round 1 or 2

The Heisman now goes to the best player on high ranked teams. Not the best player.

Dak isn't the best player either. He's really good, but if we're gonna pick a player from a 3 loss team, give me Fournette all day.

He had more yards by himself than any other entire SEC team this week. Random stat.

If he played on a better team with a better record he would be.

The Heisman is largely a popularity contest and PR campaign.

Which is why it's a very over-rated award.

Dak is ridiculously good but given my choice I'd probably take Chad Kelly. Those are the two best qb's in the league.

He's in the discussion now to be in New York, but unfortunately State isn't relevant enough this season.

The losses don't help, but the bigger reason is that he's perceived as consistently falling short in high profile games.

It probably isn't fair because aside from his 3 pick game against Bama in 2014, he has played well but there is no avoiding the fact that Mississippi State has lost pretty much every national spotlight game played during his career.

As others have said, this is a beauty contest and if you want to win it, you just have to win some of those games.
