Heisman Watch List

 

Just more Heisman fodder...

 

2. Ndamukong Suh, Nebraska, DT, Sr.

Last week: 6 tackles, 5 solo; 1 tackle for loss; 1 sack; 1 forced fumble; 1 interception; 1 pass broken up in a 27-12 victory at No. 24 Missouri

 

Season: 32 tackles, 15 solo; 7 tackles for loss; 3 sacks; 1 interception, 7 passes broken up; 1 forced fumble

 

Heisman-o-meter: The Huskers' dominant attack man almost cracked the list after an amazing performance in the loss to Virginia Tech on Sept. 19. After an arguably better effort against Missouri last Thursday, Suh not only cracks the list but crashes the top two. The Tigers could not block this 300-pound tackle with a relentless motor (his sack and strip of Blaine Gabbert was key in the win), and he produced a stat line that you don't see from defensive linemen. Without question the most mind boggling Suh fact is that he is tied for sixth in the country at passes defended (1.6 per game), a list dominated by defensive backs; no other lineman ranks in the top 97.

 

Up next: Saturday vs. Texas Tech
