Bo Jackson Heisman Talk Spurs Auburn But Championship Risk
Barring injury or collapse, Auburn's Bo Jackson is favored to win the Heisman Trophy. Yet history shows a Heisman winner can coincide with a national title drought, as Pitt did in 1976 with Tony Dorsett and Nebraska's Rozier in 1984. Auburn sits 4-1 and ranked eighth after a 59-27 win over Florida State, while BYU and Iowa also figure as contenders. Meanwhile, Nick Johnson pursues a Lone Star Bowl plan to add a one game playoff, seeking NCAA support for 1987. Missouri aims to halt a five game skid and avoid an 0-6 start after a tough run.
