As crazy as it might sound to say after week one, I totally understand Young being at the top of the list after just one game and he deserves to be there.
Alabama’s dual-threat quarterback torched Miami, and he looked damn near unstoppable while doing it. I mean, he looked like a created player in a video game.

If you can go undefeated in the regular season and be the QB leading the team along the way with gaudy stats, then you’re going to be in great position to win the Heisman.
After what we saw Saturday out of Alabama, is there anyone who thinks they won’t go undefeated during the regular season?
I’m very convinced Alabama and Young will cruise through the SEC, and his Heisman chances will be through the roof if that happens.
