Texas' D'Onta Foreman on Heisman race: 'I have the numbers to be there'

Texas running back D'Onta Foreman said he doesn't focus on what outsiders say about him.

But that doesn't mean he's not listening. The junior said he appreciates when he hears his name in the Heisman Trophy conversation. And he believes he should get an invite to the annual ceremony New York.

"I'm excited for the people that do have me in the race," Foreman said. "And for the people that don't, that just adds to my fuel."

Foreman's Heisman stock has exploded over the past few weeks after monster performances against Baylor and Texas Tech — he racked up 250 and 341 yards, respectively.
