As Texas Tech Passes Texas in Polls, Harrell Passes McCoy

One play could determine who walks up to the podium to accept the Heisman Trophy in New York City on Dec. 13. Graham Harrell’s 28-yard touchdown pass to Michael Crabtree against Texas with one second remaining not only put both Texas Tech stars in the thick of the race, but it also prevented Texas quarterback Colt McCoy from holding onto his spot as the Heisman clubhouse leader.

Much football remains, but that pass (possibly college football’s play of the year) has made the race for the stiff armed statuette more interesting. [SI]
