VanFulpen's Heisman Poll

1. QB Denard Robinson, Michigan – Against Indiana this past Saturday he was Michigan offense and Indiana didn’t have any answers for him. He rushed for 217 yards and 2 touchdowns and threw for 277 yards and 3 touchdowns. So far this season he has 905 yards rushing and 8 touchdowns and 1,008 yards passing and 7 touchdowns. This week Michigan takes on Michigan State and will be another test for him against one of the better overall linebackers in Greg Jones from Michigan State.


2. QB Terrelle Pryor, Ohio State – He didn’t have great stats against Illinois and also got hurt and miss a little bit of time, but came back in the game and had 104 yards rushing and 76 yards passing and 2 touchdowns. This season he has 1,015 yard passing and 12 touchdowns and 373 yards rushing and 3 touchdowns. This week Ohio State takes on Indiana which they should win the game and keep pushing towards the National Championship game.


3. QB Kellen Moore, Boise State – Moore this week threw 3 touchdowns passes and 196 yards passing and this season has 1,069 yard passing and 11 touchdowns. Boise State should keep on winning and Moore should put up good numbers but don’t know if it will be enough for him to win the Heisman this season.


4. QB Ryan Mallett, Arkansas – Mallett and Arkansas was off this week and hopeful they have gotten something corrected and they play Texas A&M this week. This season Mallett has thrown for 1,438 yards and 10 touchdowns.


5. RB LaMichael James, Oregon – James had a huge day rushing against Stanford on Saturday and lead the Ducks to a victory, in that game he rushed for 257 yards and 3 touchdowns. Overall this season he has rushed for 712 yards and 7 touchdowns.

VanFulpen’s Heisman Poll

1. QB Terrelle Pryor, Ohio State – Against Eastern Michigan Pryor accounted for six touchdowns -- four passing, one rushing and one receiving. On the season he has 939 yard passing and 10 touchdowns and 269 yards rushing and 3 touchdowns. He is on the #2 overall team in the country and is the leader of that team which is the reason he is number one on my Heisman poll.


2. QB Denard Robinson, Michigan – Robinson got hurt against Bowling Green and only played about 10 minutes in the game, but did end up rushing for 129 yards and 2 touchdowns. The questions are how bad is he really hurt and what will he do against Big Ten competition.


3. QB Kellen Moore, Boise State – Moore threw for 288 yards and 3 touchdowns against Oregon State 873 yards and 8 touchdowns on the season. He should put up good numbers and Boise State will be a huge favorite in all their remaining games.


4. QB Ryan Mallett, Arkansas – Mallett looked like the Heisman favorite in the first half against Alabama when Arkansas was leading, but in the second half Mallett made some bad throws and threw 3 interceptions total in the game and cost Arkansas a shot at the upset.


5. QB Andrew Luck, Stanford – Luck didn’t have a great game in the win over Notre Dame, throwing his first two interceptions of the season but they got the win and now move on to play Oregon. This season Luck has 912 yards passing and 11 touchdowns and 163 yards rushing along with 1 rushing touchdown.

VanFulpen's Heisman Watch

1. QB Ryan Mallett, Arkansas – Mallett won on the road against Georgia with a game winning touchdown passes and threw for 380 yards and 3 touchdowns. Has a huge game this week against Alabama and if he has a great game and pull off the upset should be in the driver seat for the Heisman.

2. QB Denard Robinson, Michigan – Robinson played UMass and did win the game and put up good number, but it was UMass and for a while it looked like Michigan could have been on upset alert.

3. QB Terrelle Pryor, Ohio State – Pryor and Ohio State did beat Ohio, but Pryor threw 2 interceptions and it was never a game where Pryor needed to make any Heisman type moments.

4. QB Kellen Moore, Boise State – Moore threw for 370 yards and 2 touchdowns and crushed Wyoming, but a huge test for Boise State as well as Moore awaits this week against Oregon State.

5. QB Landry Jones, Oklahoma – Jones threw for 254 yards and 1 touchdown against Air Force but didn’t look all that impressive as he did the week before, his Hesiman hopes are fading but has a huge game in two weeks against Texas in which his Hesiman stock could rise fast depending on how he plays.
