Florida State RB Dalvin Cook's Heisman Trophy case as strong as any
"Dalvin [Cook] doesn't take a back seat to anybody," said Seminoles coach Jimbo Fisher. Mark Wallheiser/AP PhotoTALLAHASSEE, Fla. -- Ryan Hoefeld has opened holes for Dalvin Cook and tried clogging them up on Leonard Fournette.
The Florida State center is from New Orleans and played against LSU's running back and the Heisman Trophy front runner.
"I'm obviously going to go with my guy," Hoefeld said smiling when asked which player is better.
"… They're both explosive backs, both love the game, both compete, both humble. They both have a lot of the same attributes."
Heading into Week 8, both Cook and Fournette are among the top four on the ESPN Heisman Watch Experts' Poll.
