He earned it in the Auburn game.
It was a good game, but not because the quarterback was outstanding—rather it was seeing just how deep a hole Alabama could dig itself into before remembering that it needs to win another championship.
If he had been Heisman material, in my opinion, he’d been able to be taking two or three knees in the final minute and a half, rather than having to work hard to go into multiple overtimes.
Not so much Bryce Young against Auburn as it was the offensive line, and the defensive line, both of which were beaten as often as not against Auburn. And then against Georgia, it looked like we had entirely new, dominating lines on both sides of the ball.
