This guy is good and he's fun to watch play.

Deep down you know he wants to stick it to Texas

This is all just hype for the October 18th game in Austin. Stupid sportswriter is beating the drum already. Why can't newspapers find a better class of writers about sports? They all seem to s uck.

I didnt know he was the front runner, I thought it was Tebow, Wells, and Knowshown

I think it goes to Knowshon this year...he's EXPLOSIVE!

If he puts up numbers in the SEC, he's got it

xxx84xxx | 07/22/08, 10:43 AM

He will put up those numbers, oh yes, he will.

Colt McCoy was Vince Young's replacement? Why? This Daniels guy is the best pocket passer in football.

Deep South Sider | 07/22/08, 11:53 AM

Frontrunner? When I hear Heisman talk I hear Tebow, Moreno, and Wells. Daniel is good but not frontrunner good.

Personally, I think it's Tebow's to lose. I know a lot of people don't like the guy but in that offense he's going to get his numbers.

J. HOVA: BROOKLYN'S OWN | 07/22/08, 12:00 PM

I like the guy.

Deep South Sider | 07/22/08, 01:53 PM

I'd take Daniel over Tebow any day.

Really? Tebow is tough, probably one of the better QB's in the game. I'm not a fan personally, but to do what he did the SEC of all places, thats impressive, and he seems to have his head on straight, what more can you ask of your QB?

This guy lost twice in one season to OU and freshman QB Sam Bradford, He is over-rated.

There is really no comparison between Tebow and Daniel at the moment. The one plays in the toughest conference in the nation, the other in, well, something less than that. Although passing stats are similar, for Tebow to have racked up the stats that he did is impressive. Don't get me wrong: Daniel is a fine QB, but, at this point, before the season, Tebow is better. Things may change.

That's funny, I thought that Mizzou lost to OU. Little did I know that it was only Chase Daniel!

Also, I think an argument can certainly be made for Chase being a Heisman front runner. As impressive as Wells and Moreno were last year, Daniel was moreso. Assuming both stay healthy, I think this is a two horse race between him and Tebow.

cowace2 | 07/22/08, 04:02 PM

This is a small point, I know, but Mizzou did thrash an SEC team in the Cotton Bowl. I believe it was the same SEC team that beat LSU. To say the SEC is better than the Big 12 is meaningless. The conferences are both good, with neither having an obvious advantage.

joedeluca | 07/22/08, 04:11 PM

I expect that he Big 12 QB's will outshine those SEC QB's this year totally. Graham Harrell, Chase Daniel, Colt McCoy (will bounce back), Sam Bradford and Reesing will all make things happen this year!!!!!!

Tx_Longhorn_Phan | 07/22/08, 04:20 PM

Just an FYI - Sophomore Jeremy Maclin is Mizzou's best offensive player and will go very high in the draft when he comes out. If the Heisman were washed of politics, I'd put my money on Maclin.

joedeluca | 07/22/08, 04:20 PM

All good points. I still ride with Tebow though. Until Urban finds a running back, Tebow is going to get the call to run that ball into the end zone from 5 to 10 yards out. He can very easily put up another 50 plus TD season, and if Florida has a better season overall (lets say SEC Champion and BCS bowl) then he has to win the Heisman again.
