re: Heisman Race Deep Dive: Daniels vs Nix vs Penix

Strong case for Daniels. I also believe the three losses were to top-10 teams, at least through this past weekend. Caleb Williams won the Heisman last season when USC had three losses, one after the award ceremony, but had 15 times as many first-place votes as Georgia's Stetson Bennett, who led the undefeated Bulldogs to their second national title. In LSU's losses, Daniels accounted for 410 yards against Florida State, 513 against Ole Miss and 382 in three quarters against Alabama. LSU leads the nation in total offense and yards per play. Daniels isn't responsible for the poor play of the Tiger defense. By the way, Daniels' passing efficiency rating of 202.1 just moved him past Joe Burrow's 202.0 in 2019.
