In case you were wondering, this is how I voted in this week’s poll:

  1. Andrew Luck – Stanford QB – Luck starts the season on top in my poll. He could be playing every Sunday if he wanted to but he decided to come back. He didn’t disappoint in his first game a blowout win over San Jose. He finished the night with 171 passing yards and two touchdown passes. Even though it’s only week one, the Heisman is probably his to lose.
  2. Kellen Moore – Boise State QB – Back for another year is the slinging lefty from Boise State. He got off to a slow start against the Georgia Bulldogs but it didn’t take him long to turn it on. He helped his squad to the win by passing for 261 yards and three touchdowns. The only bad part of his night was an interception.
  3. Landry Jones – Oklahoma QB – I had Landry Jones on my radar after watching him in the Fiesta Bowl against my UConn Huskies. The junior quarterback had a great game against Tulsa throwing for 375 yards and one touchdown. He could easily be No. 2 here in my rankings but Moore got the edge because of his experience. I’m guessing he makes a race of it with Luck though as the season goes on.
