Heisman hopefuls can't win the trophy in Week 12, but they sure can lose it.
Just ask Ezekiel Elliot. The Ohio State running back entered the week with an opportunity to challenge odds-on favorite Derrick Henry for the title. Instead, whether he'll be invited to the ceremony might wind up being an interesting storyline.
That's the nature of this season's Heisman race. Between injuries, upsets and flat out baffling drops in production (looking at you, Leonard Fournette), there's really no telling week-to-week who will stay in this battle of attrition.
Week 12 brought a little clarity to the race as a few candidates failed to make the statement they needed to catch the runaway train that is Henry.
