Take this statement from one whose offense (if you want to call it that) has ranked at or near dead last of all FBS schools….I’d take him in a heartbeat. 🙂
"A Heisman-worthy performance from Bo," Lanning said. "We got a special one on our sidelines."
Nix's numbers told one side of the story -- he completed 74% of his throws, averaged 13.3 yards per pass attempt and posted a 96.1 QBR. But the way he paced Oregon's offense -- from drives punctuated by explosive plays to methodical ones -- displayed how dynamic the Ducks' attack can be on their way to their ninth win.
Nix leads the nation in completion percentage at 77.7% and has 3,135 passing yards and 29 touchdown passes, matching his total from last season. The fifth-year senior was a -150 favorite to win the Heisman at ESPN BET as of early Sunday morning.
