Spencer Sanders on the Cusp of the Heisman Conversation

If Heisman ballots were going out this week…my ballot to go to New York woud be 1 Caleb Williams, USC 2 CJ Stroud, Ohio State, 3 Bryce Williams, and 4 Spencer Sanders, O-State.

His team is 4-0 primarily because of him is ranked No. 7 nationally. He is the best ball player on Mike Gundy’s team and he is their best running back as well even though he plays the quarterback position.

Mike Gundy seem to have finally figured it out….his best ball carrier (Spencer) needs at a minimum 15 rushing attepts every game. With Jaylen Warren now playing for the Pittsbursg Steelers….Spencer Sanders has to be the man within reason. I would think anything over twenty rushes a game might be a bit much.

It’s early in the fourth tier Big 12, but with O State’s 36-25 win at Waco the Cowboys appear to be the team to beat in the fourth of fifth tier Big 12 for one simple reason…that being, Spencer Sanders is the best ball player in the league.

O State’s defense defense was as horrfiic as OU’s in their season opener versus, Central Michigan, but from that point forward the Cowboys have improved incrementally every week.

In the defenseless, baffy Big 12 if you can hold a team to 25 points a game and have Spencer Sanders with his talented quartet of receivers…I would think the Pokes have a very solid chance of advancing to the Big 12 Chanpionship Game.

In my lifetime….in 1976 Terry Miller finished second in the Heisman voting and in 1988, of course Barry Sanders won the Heisman. I don’t think with a glamour QB like Caleb in Los Angeles that Spencer Sanders can win the Heisman, but I think for certain he should have a chance of getting to New York.

Hope he makes it.

Go for it kid, I’m playing Gloria for both you and General Booty this Saturday. I like your chances just a bit better.
