00:00On the Heisman side, which is always interesting, Ewers is now the favorite.
00:09So they had Dylan Gabriel up there before the season.
00:11He's now slipped to nine to one.
00:13Ewers, Cam Ward, Carson Beck, Dylan Gabriel, Jackson, Dart, Action, Jackson, Dart, which
00:20is my guy, Cam, that's who I have.
00:22There's Nico from Tennessee at 11, Jalen Milrow, Will Howard, Asha Jetty and Miller Moss, who
00:28I actually have a nice number at.
00:30He's down to 22 to one, Cam.
00:31I believe I have 35 or 40 on Miller Moss.
00:34So I got a good one on Miller Moss.
00:36And I got a good number on Ewers, and now he's the favorite.
00:38I feel good.
00:39But my Avery Johnson, quarterback of Kansas State, he's probably dropping.
00:43I got him at like 30, and the way that team barely came back, he needs a miracle.
00:47But I like where I stand with Ewers.
00:51It's hard, Cam, because unfortunately this award is not what it used to be.
00:55And I know I do this diatribe from time to time whenever we put the Heisman odds up.
01:00For a guy like him at Kansas State, they need to go undefeated and win the Big 12 and be
01:06in the playoff for him to even be involved in the conversation.
01:11That's just how this award has been built now.
01:15It's almost been built into an MVP award as opposed to the most outstanding college player.
01:22They've gone away from giving it to that.
01:25It's more you, 95% of the time, have to be a quarterback.
01:28Your team has to be in the playoff.
01:30You have to be in the running for a national championship.
01:32It's no longer who's had the best statistical eye-popping season on the field.
01:38It's you need the team stuff attached to it as well.
01:41So taking someone from Kansas State on your knee, Cam, but you need that team to win the
01:45Big 12 and get in the playoff.
01:47You're right, Carver.
01:48You want to stick to guys like Texas, Georgia.
01:51You said it.
01:52Teams that can actually run the table.
01:54It makes a lot of sense.
01:55I just really like this kid, but yeah, in retrospect, it wasn't really too smart.
02:00Those things aren't impossible, Cam.
02:01It's not impossible that Kansas State doesn't.
02:05Now that's going to be a tough conference, I think, to run the table in because there's
02:07so many evenly matched teams in the Big 12.
02:11I find it hard that somebody's going to get out of that alive and unscathed without a
02:16loss, but getting involved in the playoff will put them in the conversation.
02:20That's at least what you want to have.
