Gunner Stockton was nowhere to be found in the preseason conversations around Heisman favorites. Beyond the Arch Manning Road Show, there was LaNorris Sellers at South Carolina and DJ Lagway at Florida getting more hype than the quarterback from Tiger, GA.
But now Georgia is into their SEC schedule and enough games have taken place to start giving consideration to Stockton. So far he has outperformed all three of those quarterbacks and should be getting mentioned in the Heisman conversation. This past weekend really showed the difference by comparison.
When Texas fans are caught booing their star player, then there's cause for concern with Manning being a Heisman favorite.
