YOU READ THAT RIGHT!
Only for the last few weeks has Missouri been eligible to vote for, and just a few weeks later they cracked the top 25. Sure, there were 24 other teams who made the top 25, but Missouri is on the list. So YAY!
So, who’s at the top?

Alabama, again.
Alabama makes the top spot for the third straight week, but I found the most interesting movement to be LSU, who bounced into the second spot after beating Florida at home on Saturday. Clemson probably won’t be challenged the rest of the year until the College Football playoff, so they seem locked into a top four spot.
This weeks question revolved around the Heisman, who is your top pick?
- Joe Burrow (LSU) - 35.2%
- Jalen Hurts (Oklahoma) - 24.4%
- Jonathan Taylor (Wisconsin) - 21.3%
- Tua Tagovailoa (Alabama) - 10.9%
- Justin Fields (Ohio State) - 6.2%
- Trevor Lawrence (Clemson) - 2%
I went with Burrow. LSU has great skill position players, but they’ve long missed a guy to make it all run, and he is making that program run right now. I get the attraction to Hurts, but Oklahoma has had two QBs in a row win the Heisman, which tells me a little more about the system than the player.
FanPulse submission applications are still open. Meaning you vote for Missouri as HIGH as you want to vote them. I personally voted them 12th (ahead of Boise, bc that win at FSU isn’t holding up so well) If you want to vote for the Tigers, you can still sign up: Click HERE to sign up!
So with the Tigers in the top 25, we have less to complain about other than they’re still too low. Mizzou fans did the right thing and had them at 18th.
Here is how the votes went:

Sure. I really think 20-40 is just going to be really tough all year long. Here’s how our SEC brethren voted us: Alabama 18, Auburn 19, Florida 18, Georgia 18, Kentucky 18, LSU 18, Ole Miss 17, Tennessee 18, Texas A&M 18, Vanderbilt 18. South Carolina, Mississippi State, and Arkansas don’t have enough voters to be tallied.
Fan Confidence time... we’re back at 100%, good job everybody. We’re all feeling good.

So let’s gauge interest here on the Heisman vote (I think Kelly Bryant deserves to be on this list more than Trevor Lawrence, but that’s just me).
