Cameron Newton has become the face of college football quarterbacks this season as he has led his Auburn Tigers to eight straight wins so far, and he is at the top of most college football experts' Heisman watch lists.
Newton has a total of 13 touchdown completions and 14 touchdowns so far this season, and he will look to add to those stats today against Ole Miss.
Last year's Heisman winner Alabama's Mark Ingram even said that he would give his vote to Newton, and there is no arguing this Auburn quarterback's impact with the Tigers.
But who else is in the running for college football's greatest prize?
According to the ESPN Experts' Poll, the rest of the top five Heisman contenders are as follows:
2. LaMichael James, Oregon: The Oregon Ducks wouldn't have the best offense in college football without this sophomore running back, and James is responsible for 12 of the No. 2 team's touchdowns.
3. Kellen Moore, Boise State: This junior quarterback has played a key role in the Broncos' longest consecutive winning streak in college football with his 82 career touchdown completions.
4. Andrew Luck, Stanford: The Standford Cardinal has remained at the top of the Pac 10 conference (with their only loss to Oregon) with the help of this junior quarterback.
5. Justin Blackmon, Oklahoma State: This week, we could see Blackmon fall out of the Heisman running as he was suspended from today's game after a DUI.
