Week 10 Heisman Watch

In a shocking turn of events, both of the top two players in last week's Heisman watch tumble after disappointing performances on Saturday. Many players have capitalized on this tumble including our new leader. We have only one player on the watch-list: Greg Ward Jr. of Houston. We also have two players who dropped off: Josh Doctson (who suffered a wrist injury) and Paxton Lynch (who lost to Navy by 25). Let's get started.

10. DeShone Kizer, Notre Dame (Last Week: NR)- Kizer is Notre Dame's third player to make the Heisman watch this season, making it the only school (along with Ohio State) to have that many players in the top ten. (The only other teams with multiple players are Baylor and TCU). Kizer accounted for six touchdowns in ND's 42-30 win over Pitt.

9. Baker Mayfield, Oklahoma (Last Week: NR)- Mayfield resurfaces on our top ten list after throwing for 342 yards and three touchdowns. Furthermore, thanks to TCU's loss, Oklahoma is still in playoff contention.

8. Dalvin Cook, Florida State (Last Week: 9)- The Seminoles picked up their second loss of the season, but Cook was still impressive. He ran for 194 yards and one touchdown on 21 carries against Clemson.

7. Trevone Boykin, TCU (Last Week: 2)- Unfortunately for Boykin, you can't throw four interceptions and lose by 20 points and expect to remain a Heisman front-runner. He will get a chance to redeem himself next week against Kansas.

6. Christian McCaffrey, Stanford (Last Week: 7)- #11 Stanford rolled through Colorado, with McCaffrey running for 147 yards while also adding 35 return yards and 15 receiving yards. At this rate, McCaffrey could earn himself a ticket to New York.

5. Corey Coleman, Baylor (Last Week: 6)- Baylor stayed perfect this week by beating Bill Snyder and Kansas State. Coleman caught 11 passes for 216 yards and two touchdowns. Thanks to Doctson's injury, Coleman is the only receiver in the nation with a chance at winning the Heisman.

4. Ezekiel Elliot, Ohio State (Last Week: 4)- Ohio State is still undefeated and very much in the playoff conversation. Elliot rushed for 114 yards and one touchdown in OSU's 28-14 win over Minnesota.

3. Leonard Fournette, LSU (Last Week: 1)- Fournette could do absolutely nothing against the Crimson Tide defense on Sunday. The star back ran for only 31 yards and one score on 19 carries, by far his worst outing of the season.

2. Derrick Henry, Alabama (Last Week: 5)- Fournette's counterpart on the other sideline meanwhile, had a fantastic game. On 38 carries, Henry ran for 210 yards and three scores to keep 'Bama's playoff dreams alive.

1. Deshaun Watson, Clemson (Last Week: 3)- The QB of the #1 team in the country sits atop our Heisman standings. He threw for 297 yards and one score while also rushing for 107 yards as Clemson clinched a spot in the ACC title game.
