The Heisman Trophy conversation seems to be a two-horse race between Oregon’s Marcus Mariota and Mississippi State’s Dak Prescott. But you can put Ohio State’s J.T. Barrett right beside those two after his latest monster performance in No. 8 Ohio State’s 31-24 win against No. 25 Minnesota. Forget the human element. Barrett can’t be stopped by anybody right now, not even Mother Nature. He made that clear with an 86-yard touchdown run in the first quarter in which he outran two Minnesota safeties to the end zone....

Jacksonville held a double-digit advantage in the fourth quarter like it did in that title game, but this time, the Jags built on their lead with big plays to squash another potential Tom Brady comeback. They used much of the same formula that worked in their playoff matchup, with Blake Bortles passing effectively and the defense manning up to force a high-powered offense into long, sustained drives. The result in 2018 was a 31-20 win, not a heartbreaking, 24-20 loss....
