As you can see below, he has Ole Miss QB Matt Corral at No. 2 on the list, followed by Alabama QB Mac Jones at No. 3:

Both quarterbacks have had great starts to the season. Jones led the Crimson Tide to a big win over Texas A&M, while Corral led the Rebels to a thrilling win over Kentucky in overtime.
Can they keep playing well this weekend? We’ll see if they make Herbie’s list next week as well.
