Football fans believe that a new front-runner for the 2023 Heisman Trophy has emerged.

USC quarterback Caleb Williams is the reigning Heisman Trophy winner and spent much of the 2023 season in the running. Washington’s Michael Penix Jr., LSU’s Jayden Daniels and Ohio State’s Marvin Harrison Jr. are among the other candidates with compelling cases of their own.

But many fans are calling Oregon QB Bo Nix the new front-runner after his excellent outing against Arizona State on Saturday. Nix completed 24 of 29 pass attempts for 404 yards, six touchdowns and no interceptions.

Bo Nix may have just STOLE the Heisman with his performance against Arizona State today.

And he basically played just ONE HALF.

• 24/29 (83%)
• 404 passing yards
• 6 passing TD’s
• 0 INT’s

Nix was on pace for over 800 yards passing and 12 TD’s in a SINGLE GAME.

With the game out of reach for Arizona State, Ducks head coach Dan Lanning pulled Nix early in the second half. The Ducks cruised to a 49-13 win over Arizona State to improve to 10-1 with one regular season game remaining.

Oregon will host the No. 11 ranked Oregon State Beavers next Saturday. The Beavers are coming off a 22-20 loss to Washington.
