Heisman Trophy watch

With Heisman Trophy voting coming to a close on Monday, it's time to take a look at the leading candidates. There aren't a ton of top-notch candidates, but voters will probably most impress with Texas A&M freshman sensation Johnny "Football" Manziel and Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o. After that it is really anyone's guess.

Ohio State sophomore quarterback Braxton Miller won’t get the votes because the Buckeyes are banned from a bowl. It might not be fair, but that’s the way it goes. USC sophomore WR Marqise Lee, West Virginia senior  WR Tavon Austin and Oregon senior RB Kenjon Barner are other contenders...If not for West Virginia's second-half flop, Geno Smith (3,597 yp, 37 TDs, 5 INT) would be amongst the top four contenders. Truth be told, the senior QB may get some votes regardless. He's thrown four or more TDs in a game five times, including an eight touchdown performance in a 70-63 win over Baylor.
