Hendon Hooker for Heisman? Fans champion Tennessee QB as frontrunner after amazing performance vs. Alabama

Hendon Hooker just had the game of his life. Tennessee just had the game of its decade.
The Vols are undefeated, snapping a 15-game losing streak to Alabama off the leg of Chase McGrath. Everyone on Tennessee’s roster may never have to buy a drink in Knoxville again, but Hooker may lead the pack.
Hooker finished with 5 touchdowns and 381 yards on 21-30 completions. All 5 of his touchdowns on the afternoon were to Jalin Hyatt.
He and CJ Stroud seemed locked in for the Heisman race ahead of this game. Now, is it crazy to say it’s Hooker’s to lose?
Fans weighed in Saturday afternoon following the win.
I think Hendon Hooker is more NFL ready than Young and Stroud

Hard to see how anyone other than Hendon Hooker is being eyed for the Heisman right now.
