As objective as you can possibly be, let's have everyone give their Top 4 H trophy candidates right now, and why.  I'll start:

1. Baker Mayfield - The dude is a dynamo, incredibly tough, and a relentless competitor.  Even in ISU loss, he was great.
2. Bryce Love - He's just doing thing literally nobody else can do and has produced against everyone to date.
3. Saquon Barkley - Though he is the most multi-talented RB at his size that I've seen in a long time, his production isn't there.
4. J.T. Barrett - Has like 21 TDs and 1 INT. Loss to Mayfield's OU makes him longer shot than Love to win, IMO.

Some are talking up Frosh RB Jonathan Taylor of Wisconsin now, but True Frosh don't win the    , and I question the competition Wisconsin has faced.

Note: If Love continues to put up his insane 10 YPC through a whole season, and even gets near Barry Sanders' singe season yardage record - a major measuring stick for greatness among football fans - he would be my #1, and I think he would win the trophy.

And why not Lamar Jackson? His stats are on par or better than last year when he won it at first glance.

I agree with you here, but Louisville just lost to BC...at home. They are a shaky 4-3, so unless they run the table I have to think he's out of the running.
