The early ACC predictions for the 2021 college football season feature Clemson atop the league once again. The Tigers should be a heavy preseason favorite to claim the league title, with North.
The Heisman Trophy, first awarded in 1935 under a different name, was given to the top college football player in America on Saturday night in New York City. LSU quarterback Joe Burrow, the overwhelming favorite to win, became the first Tigers star to win the award since Billy Cannon in 1959.
- DeVonta Smith ended a three-decade drought for wide receivers when he won the Heisman Trophy in 2020. Smith was also just the third non-quarterback to win the honor since 2000.
- Another year wiser, the quarterback is slated to be the frontrunner for the Heisman trophy. Rattler will try and lead them to the promised land, an event that has eluded them since the days of the BCS. Sooners Wire takes a look at the schedule to provide a way-too-early game by game breakdown and prediction for the 2021 season.
- Let's just say the 2019 Early Top Ten Heisman Trophy Prediction piece had issues. No one – NO ONE – saw Joe Burrow coming. And no, no one had DeVonta Smith in mix for the 2020 Heisman. However, we at least had Trevor Lawrence, Kyle Trask, and random Alabama quarterback in last year's preseason mix. Predicting the 2021 Heisman race?
