5. Hendon Hooker

Senior, Tennessee

  • Week 13 Stats: N/A
  • Season Stats: 3,135 Yards, 27 TDs, 2 INT, 89.6 QBR, 69.6 Comp %

The Heisman race is officially down to two names. Caleb Williams and CJ Stroud. Caleb Williams holds an edge above Stroud due to his impressive rivalry win this past week. Blake Corum was luckily able to play against the Buckeyes but only managed to get two carries. Drake Maye and Hendon Hooker had impressive seasons that shouldn’t go unnoticed, but they will both fall short of the Heisman this season.

Caleb Williams also takes over the lead for the Davey O’Brien award. There is no question that Caleb Williams has been the best QB this season, and he should be crowned the winner. Drake Maye and Max Duggan swap places due to Maye having better stats.

— The ThunderCast ?⚡️? (@ThunderCast_Pod) November 27, 2022

No changes in the top five this week. Chase Brown has extended his lead over Blake Corum and should win this award has he performs better with a worse offensive line. Abandikana has been extremely impressive but will, unfortunately, fall short, and Mohamed Ibrahim deserves love for the season he is having after tearing his ACL last year.
