Heisman moments? Social media raves over Mac Jones' sensational Iron Bowl
Fans and media members like to talk about a player’s “Heisman moment.” Does a Heisman game count as multiple Heisman moments?
Alabama QB Mac Jones may have had his Heisman game in Saturday’s Iron Bowl. Jones was on fire in Alabama’s blowout win over Auburn, going 18-of-26 passing for 302 yards and 5 touchdowns.
On social media, there was a lot of talk about Jones boosting his Heisman campaign with some ready to give him the stiff-arm trophy.
Here’s what they’re saying:

You don't get a better Heisman Moment as a pocket passer than Mac Jones audible into a TD pass to Metchie where the QB drops a dime out of the heavens like that. Perfection. #IronBowl @JOXRoundtable

I can make an argument that Mac Jones is the best QB in CFB right now… Should 100% win Heisman https://t.co/uR8QjtRzpi

Mac Jones proving to be the no doubt Heisman and honestly I can’t even tell you who is second.

I’m sorry but if Mac Jones isn’t the clear Heisman front runner then there just doesn’t need to be a Heisman trophy anymore

The way things are trending, it will likely come down with an SEC Championship duel against Kyle Trask in the final weekend before the votes are in.
Zach Wilson for Heisman. Give Jones the receivers Wilson has and he’s just a decent quarterback with an accurate side arm.
Have you looked at BYU’s schedule?
Navy, Troy, Louisiana Tech, UTSA, Houston, Texas St, Western Kentucky, North Alabama, San Diego St. The only decent win was against an unranked Boise St.
Unranked and without their starting QB.
Comical.
I love Auburn fans take when it comes to Bama…. It’s like they open their mouth and stupid $hit falls out…
I know we lost but come on no way BYU’s qb gets the heisman. Its Mac and Trask.
Be careful, green with envy eye sludge is blinding you to reality. It’s appropriate that the two biggest groups of whiners about Bama’s greatness share the same mascot species ie wittle tiggers. You know, fans whose teams manage to have an elite season once every blue moon.
Must’ve been hard typing that completely unbiased comment through your teary eyes after that beat down. Expect nothing less from Auburn.
Track is leading Heisman watch over Mac 56-50. Should be almost even on the next vote next week. Beating a ranked Auburn in the Iron Bowl should trump Kentucky.
Bottom line-the sec championship game will determine the heisman trophy winner.
These two are neck and neck and it’s a two horse race
Oh really?????? Kyle Trask says hello and begs to differ… he has like what, 10 more TD passes than Jones????
Oh you know it. Nobody can have a Heisman moment but Trask.. Obviously the Heisman always goes to the player with the most TDs I don’t know why we are even thinking Mac has a chance… Obviously Florida is the best thing even and their impressive win over the powerhouse UK blows anything Mac and Bama has done out of the water….
Bama has a running game. RB Najee Harris and Brian Robinson scoring TD’s takes away from Mac total. Mac is 3-0 vs ranked SEC teams vs Trask 1-1.
Yes really. Mac leads Trask (and leads the nation) in Total QBR…oh and by-the-way, the last 3 Heisman QBs led the nation in Total QBR.
Jones leads in every other statistical category. QBR, completion %, yards per completion, etc. He has also led his team to more TDs which might be why he leads Trask in the most important stat, wins.
Bama has two trophies in mind and that’s the SEC and National Championship. All else is just gravy.
Jones should have moved ahead today.
Also I don’t think Mac has played a full game so far. Takes away from his numbers
