Colorado and LSU both 3-2
Sanders- 1781 yards, 74% completion 15 TD 2 INT
Daniels- 1710 yards 73% completion 16 TD 2 INT

Those stats are pretty similar to me. But, I don't know. Apparently you have to be on a good team to be in consideration for the award

Daniels is in the conversation. Just need to win out.
He was in it last year after beating Bama but then we lost to A&M

Our schedule is also astronomically harder than colorados

I think you and I both know why

Because ESPN has been gagging on Prime and Colorado since the beginning of the year.

Why do you think Daniels isnt in the discussion?
Unless odds have changed, he’s still around +1800 which puts him at 7th best.
Where’s Sanders?

It’s called the Prime effect

You are getting a hard lesson in who really runs the sport, the media.
Colorado is a Tier 3 program that would get passed over if it went unbeaten or was knocking on the Top 4 with any other coach not named "Prime".

Both are currently fringe contenders

Who cares?
We cant beat Ole Miss.

Because Colorado is overachieving and LSU is underachieving. Nothing more than this.

Bc Daniel’s doesn’t flex his wrist enough

Heisman is as much of a player popularity award as it is performance related.
Right now, it's a really just a 2-man race between Penix and Caleb Williams. I think Brock Bowers is still a sleeper if Georgia can keep him rolling. The best player on the best team pretty much always gets an invite.
Crazy how far Daniels's odds dropped after the loss even though he put up crazy numbers on the road at Ole Miss. Looks like he's 2nd in total yards: 1710 passing + 292 rushing = 2002 yards total.
Total Offense:
Penix: 2008 (1999 + 9); 16 Total TDs
Daniels: 2002 (1710 + 292); 19 Total TDs
Sanders: 1738 (1781 - 43); 17 Total TDs
Williams: 1686 (1686 + 83); 24 Total TDs
Gabriel: 1688 (1593 + 95); 19 Total TDs
Bo Nix: 1546 (1546 + 87); 16 Total TDs
Going to shop around and put another small bet on Daniels Heisman at +4000 (pre-season +2000). +4000 on BetRivers, +3500 on FanDuel.
eta: And as others have pointed out. Sanders is not in the Heisman discussion according to Vegas.

1. He’s not.
2. Media slobbish on the Colorado knob

What are you basing your outrage on? Here are the odds from MGM. Daniels' odds are significantly higher than Sanders.

Look I don’t think either should be in the discussion but JD is a much better QB than Sanders and on a better team by a long shot.
If Sanders is in the discussion and JD isn’t the only reason is because the media wants to push Colorado and Deion as much as possible.
