Heisman watch

Troy Smith

Senior quarterback, Ohio State

Mr. Efficient added some flash to his Heisman résumé when he raced in for a 21-yard touchdown run against Minnesota last week.


Brady Quinn

Senior quarterback, Notre Dame

As his numbers continue to add up, more voters are forgetting his three interceptions against Michigan.


Steve Slaton

Sophomore running back, West Virginia

Not playing since Oct. 20 has hurt his chances. Playing alongside another Heisman candidate, quarterback Pat White, has hurt more.
