GSN Heisman Watch will become a weekly segment following all the action of College Football’s Heisman candidates. GSN will focus on the Top 5 candidates, while listing some Dark Horses too.

5. Tony Pike, Cincinatti

Pike has a surprising season so far, and has quickly rose on the Heisman board. He had a mediocre game yesterday, going for 273 yards and 2 TD’s. His chances to win the hardware are not very likely ( as of now ), but his sudden emergence is making him much more appealing to NFL scouts.

4. Case Keenum, Houston

Most of you probably have not heard of Keenum yet due to the fact that he plays in a mid major conference. But you can’t overlook his monster numbers that he has been consistently putting up this season. He threw for 536 yards and 5 TD’s against UTEP.

3. Jimmy Claussen, Notre Dame

This kid can straight up air it out, and he has been clutch in recent weeks. Yesterday, Claussen led Notre Dame to a late comeback victory in overtime over Washington. He racked up 422 yards and 2 TD’s, while completing 72% of his passes.

2. Colt McCoy, Texas

The Longhorns were off this week, but McCoy has been dominant thus far. Throwing for 1,145 yards and 9 TD’s puts McCoy at GSN’s #2 Heisman candidate, and just behind…

1. Tim Tebow, Florida

The stats may not be their ( 643 yards, 11 Total TD’s, 64.7%), but Tebow is still the most electrifying talent in the nation. His toughness can never be doubted after playing sick last week, and when he suits up against LSU next week, he will be coming off a concussion. Tebow will remain at #1 until he really messes up, which I don’t see happening.
