The Colorado football team still has a few regular season games left for Hunter to make his case for the Heisman, and right now, he has put himself in a terrific spot to come home with the trophy. He will obviously get a lot of opportunities to continue to make his case down the stretch as he is almost always on the field for the Buffaloes.

Heisman voters often prefer to see the player they will be voting for, so teams that play high-profile, primetime games typically get more attention. It’s especially important for Heisman candidates to get TV exposure in October and November when the race is being decided.
