Heisman watch

-

Tua Tagovailoa became the first Alabama quarterbac­k to throw for at least 400 yards and five touchdowns in a game last week at South Carolina. Next up is a Southern Mississipp­i defense that allowed 80 total points in its last two games and allowed 528 total yards to Troy.

Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence has thrown five intercepti­ons — two last week at Syracuse — after he was picked off just four times in 2018. The Tigers are 41-point favorites against a Charlotte team that ranks fifth nationally against the pass (123 ypg) but has only faced an average of 21 pass attempts per game.
