Kirk Herbstreit used part of his segment on College GameDay picking the Texas A&M at LSU game to make a pitch for Jayden Daniels for the Heisman Trophy.
“So you look at Jayden Daniels, not only is he gonna win the Heisman this year, I think he’s gonna go to the NFL,” Herbstreit said. “Not only is he going to win with 3 losses, he’s gonna go into his world and become a guy because he can throw it, he can buy time to throw, he can buy time and run. Yeah, I think he’s a very, very special player.”
Daniels has seen a jolt of Heisman publicity in recent days and weeks, including billboards in Big Ten and Pac-12 footprints.
Daniels has also surged in betting markets as he and Oregon’s Bo Nix have set themselves apart in the Heisman race down the stretch.
