Trevor Lawrence is probably still the frontrunner, but if you can throw for 623 yards and win against LSU in Baton Rouge, you'll be putting up huge numbers all year against everyone.
If we go 7-3 or better, KJ is surely a finalist.

If he throws for 380 yards against Arkansas next week, which is certainly doable, he'll have 1,000 yards in 2 games. Think about that.
If he keeps up this pace, he'll win it.
To win the heisman in the sec, you have to beat bama.
Yep. Unfortunately the Heisman is not for the best player in college football anymore. Hasn't been for a while. It's a popularity contest between the big schools.Quote:

He's a first round QB playing in the air raid with a good OL.
He’s legit, but we all know he won’t win it. Bama is still Bama. But A&M and Auburn looked like horse shit yest. And people can say all they want about oh well it was their first game and their only gonna get better. Yea well, so will we...

Tebow won it when Florida lost 3 or 4 games, right?Quote:

They are not the win all lose all when it comes to that reward.
Hell, the QB from Louisville won it and he wasn?t even the best QB in his conference. (It was Deshaun Watson)
Yes, these are the last 13 winners, along with the team's record as of the day they won.Quote:

Yes, most of the time, it goes to a player on a Playoff team, but 4 times in the last 13, it's gone to a player from a team not in the conversation. It's definitely not out of the question that KJ could win it if we go 8-2 or even 7-3.
Last 3 sec qbs that won it beat BamaQuote:
