Oh, oh I'm late again.
Let's get started! ...and here are my candidates:
5. QB Max Hall -BYU-
Tough day for Max Hall, who threw two interceptions against Utah State. On the other hand his 303 passing yards and 2 touchdowns were just enough to lift BYU to a victory.
4. RB Donald Brown -UConn-
Brown rushed for 169 yards and one touchdown in the loss to North Carolina. He broke the 1000-yards-rushing mark in just 6 games and he averages 6 yards per carry, but still he receives only little respect from the major sports analysts.
3. QB Sam Bradford -Oklahoma-
He threw for two touchdown and rushed for another in a solid win against Baylor. Bradford will face a very good Texas defense in week 7. Let's see if he can impress against a strong Big12 opponent.
2. QB Graham Harrell -Texas Tech-
Another great performance by Harrell. He threw for 454 yards and tossed the ball over the goalline six times. Right now Harrell averages 405 yards passing and over 3 touchdowns per game. If Graham Harrell can lead his team to victories against Texas and Oklahoma, please give him the trophy!
1. QB Chase Daniels -Mizzou-
No signs of slowing down! He lead Mizzou to the first victory against Nebraska in three decades. He is playing almost flawless, no interceptions in four games. Keep on going, Chase!
Week seven already started and the Heisman Race will be back before week eight ends!

Still undefeated - Which college team will win it all?
Week six is in the books and we have 15 undefeated teams in the FBS (formerly known as Division IA. Mathematically only 10 teams can finish 1X-0, but the chances are slim. Only a handful teams will survive.
Which squads? Let's see:
1. Missouri
2. Oklahoma State
3. Oklahoma
4. Texas
5. Texas Tech
Mathematically not more than two (only Missouri and Oklahoma) of those teams can end the season without a loss. I favor Texas or Missouri to win it all, but I won't be surprised if all teams suffer at least one defeat during the rest of the season.
6. Penn State
I think Penn State is playing its best football in years and if I had to bet on one team to go undefeated it would be the Nittany Lions. They have to play Ohio State, Wisconsin and Michigan State in the next weeks, but I think Penn State will survive these threats.
7. Northwestern
Northwestern hasn't played ranked teams, yet. They will face the tough opponents in the 2nd half of the season starting with Michigan State. No, I don't think Northwestern will win against Michigan State and Purdue and Ohio State and Illinois and...
8. Tulsa
Tulsa dominated their opponents this season averaging over 56 points per game. But I think Tulsa will stumble against UTEP or Houston or even against SMU!
9. Utah
10. BYU
If both teams beat TCU and stay undefeated, we will see a great season finale when BYU faces Utah. Right now I believe BYU will have the edge in this game.
11. Ball State
Dante Love went down but Ball State kept on winning. If they can win against a tough playing Western Michigan, they will likely go undefeated.
12. Vanderbilt
I really like the Commodores this season, but they have to play a tough SEC schedule. Georgia, Florida and Kentucky won't hand out a "W" without a fight. I think there is only one SEC team with a good chance to remain undefeated and unfortunately it's not Vanderbilt.
13. Alabama
14. LSU
Yes, it's Alabama! This is the best team in the SEC right now and I believe they can end the season with a perfect record. No, LSU won't spoil it for Alabama. The Crimson Tide will likely win the SEC and will play in the National Championship Game.
15. Boise State
Boise State is playing well this year. With Hawaii rebuilding there are only Nevada and Fresno State left to stop Boise State from reaching perfection. But I think the Broncos will celebrate on the blue turf in the end!
I pick Penn State, Alabama, Boise State and Missouri to remain unbeaten. What's your pick?
