Heisman Watch Week 7 and Comments on the Top 25

We're nearing the point in time where people will actually start focusing in on this and the soon-to-be-release BCS standings. The Heisman race is gradually starting to take more shape. This week's updates feature some significant changes.

(1) Chase Daniel, QB, Missouri, Sr.
(2) Sam Bradford, QB, Oklahoma, Soph.
(3) Charles Scott, RB, LSU, Jr.
(4) Tim Tebow, QB, Florida, Jr.
(5) Graham Harrell, QB, Texas Tech, Sr.

Jeremy Maclin and Colt McCoy are the next two players on this list, and are still in serious contention at this point in the season. Tebow falls hard on poor team performances and much lower production as compared to last year at this point. Chase Daniel is leading the most potent offense in all of college football, and Sam Bradford is at the helm of the nation's best team. Charles Scott moves up without playing, but this weekend's matchup with Florida looms large for both Scott, Tebow, and both teams. We've also got the Red River Shootout coming this Saturday, so we should see some BIG movements on the Heisman rankings and the Top 25 this week.

And while we're on the subject of the Top 25, I think the rankings are slightly off at this point. Alabama has beaten two teams that were highly regarded coming into the season, but neither of those two teams has played a good game so far this year. So, here's my version of the top 10.

(1) Oklahoma
(2) LSU
(3) Missouri
(4) Alabama
(5) Texas
(6) Penn State
(7) USC
(8) Texas Tech
(9) Florida
(10) Vanderbilt

Yes, I'm leaving Georgia out of this. Simply put, the Bulldogs have looked approximately like Auburn to this point in the year. And with the schedule they have, its entirely possible they will lose four or five games. On the other hand, I might be an idiot, and they might win all the rest and roll into the national title game with a loss....
