Bruce Feldman's Top 5 Heisman Trophy candidates after Week 5

Posted Oct 2, 2016
5. Mitch Trubisky, North Carolina, QB: I thought about finding room for Deshaun Watson and Christian McCaffrey, but it's time to give some love to Trubisky, who was superb in the Tar Heels’ win at Florida State. Actually, he's been superb all season with a 13-0 TD-INT ratio, while completing 76 percent of his passes. He’s also run for four touchdowns. (FOX Sports)
