4th one from the top FFS !

I was looking at LAST names, dude! Yes, I have heard the name "Archie Manning" before. He might be part of a famous family? What do you think?

So far he’s been a disaster for UT.
I’m surprised you haven’t heard.
UT creamed Texas El Paso 27-10 last Saturday. Manning had 10 incompletions in a row with one interception at one stage .

I'm going to go out on a limb and say it's not going to be LSU. Over rated as hell. In fact it won't be an SEC team. It will be the big 10 champ.

Two weeks from now when the ducks visit Penn State we should have some clarity about who's who this year.

I wonder how his receivers are handling this fiasco. They're open and he can't get the effing ball to them.

But...... but......... but his last name is MANNING.

I couldn't find one, so if this is a duplicate, hopefully @Damocles can merge them. It's 9/13 and I'm watching the Washington State Cougars get destroyed by UNT! The Huskies suck this year, they lost Penix Jr., a 2024 Heisman candidate to the NFL.

So - who do you think will win it all this year? It's early, but we've seen all teams play as of today. So I'm going to start a poll.

I haven't found a duplicate.

I think he has a good chance of winning the Heisman if he completes 45 -50% of his passes.

Texas plays Texas this week! (Austin v. El Paso). If they keep giving the Longhorns this weak schedule, of course they'll maintain their standing!

Huh? They played last week.

You're right. They play Sam Houston. Not a tough opponent, either.

That's not going very far.

Most teams in the top 10 are overrated IMO. Ohio State's win over Texas doesn't look impressive. They did slightly better than UTEP, at home no less.
Penn State has played... nobody.
Miami has the best resume.
Oregon struggled against Wisconsin who got clobbered by Alabama.
FSU looks pretty impressive w/ that win over Alabama.
Georgia shoulda lost to Tenn.
At this point in the season I'd have to rank Miami at No. 1
FSU #2. After that... nobody looks particularly impressive.
Although Oklahoma looks like they have a good offense, LSU and Texas, good defenses but Texas' QB stinks.
Nobody really stands out at this point, IMO.

With at lest 3.5 yds./completion at minimum of course. a

Uh oh, friend! Looks like you made a pick! Miami! I'm still going with Oregon - may the best man (me) win!
