Oklahoma football: Kyler Murray inching upward as Heisman vote draws near

The Heisman Trophy watch for 2018 has realistically narrowed down to four top contenders, and one of those is Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray. It has become largely a quarterback competition, with that being the position of the players drawing the most attention with just a couple weeks before the Heisman voting ends.

The player considered to be the presumptive front runner in this season’s Heisman chase is Alabama sophomore quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Murray is believed to be the closest contender at this stage of the season, but West Virginia’s Will Greier and Gardner Minshew of Washington State are also in the mix.
