My order of finish…

6. Arch Manning, Texas sophomore. Lost to Ohio State, UGA, & Florida. Had stats comparable to the top five Heisman candidates.

5. Julian Sayin, Ohio State. Only top QB with no rushing yards. Finished with the most passing yards and second highest QBR. Led the nation with a 78.4% completion percentage.

4. Haynes King, Georgia Tech. Led all QBs in rushing yards and rush TDs. Only Pavia gained more yards.

3. Gunner Stockton, UGA. Was one dropped pass from being undefeated. Avenged UGA’s only loss by beating Bama for the SEC Championship. Faced second toughest strength of record.

2. Diego Pavia, Vanderbilt. Gained the most yards passing + rushing. Led Commodores to a 10-2 record in the SEC.

WINNER: Fernando Mandoza, Indiana. Led Hoosiers to the only undefeated season in college football. Beat #1 Ohio State in the Big10 Championship Game. Faced the toughest strength of record. Threw for the most TD’s (33) and ran for 6 more.
