I’d put Will Grier up there as well. He will have the stats
This might end up being worse than 2017 where was tryin to find someone even close to Baker. Only way I can see Tua losing out is if he just shyts the bed against us and LSU. It couldnt just be one game. Will will have the stats but the defense typically blows out when WVU has a contested road to the offs. They gotta play at TT who has to feel good rn, then @ resurgent UT, vs TCU, @ OkSt, and vs OU.

now conversely, if they DO manage that, he'll have probably 5-6 ranked wins and better individual stats than Tua (with one less game played unfortunately)

I don’t see how you can say he’s far and away better than Haskins. Haskins has basically played in the second half only once himself and still putting up the numbers.

I just havent respected OSU's schedule to this point really. OSU is terrible, Rutgers is Arkansas level, we just seen how good TCU is and Tulane. Id be remiss to not bring up UA's very easy schedule either but A&M stifled a talented Clemson team and then got devastated against them. Haskins looks like a very sound passer but if he does this against a scrappy PSU team, then the schedule argument points in his favor

Bama has played a similar schedule so far like you said, so that isn’t a factor. TCU’s defense is better than any Bama/Tua has faced. And the second half of one game last year doesn’t put you in the far away front runner seat for the Heisman this season (if so, let’s not forget Haskins went into the little house and beat a top 3 defense himself). Like i said, they’ve essentially played even this year statistically, and the schedule is the same for the most part. Can’t see how he’d be far and away ahead of Haskins. If you have him as a leader no problem, that’s arguable. But Haskins is right there, and if (when) he clowns against Pedo, he should be in the lead for sure.
