Jabrill Peppers would cast Heisman vote for Deshaun Watson
Heisman Trophy finalist Jabrill Peppers of Michigan doesn't have a vote for college football's biggest individual honor, but if he did, he wouldn't even put his own name at the top of the ballot.
He would instead give it to Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson over Louisville QB Lamar Jackson, Peppers told The Dan Patrick Show on Thursday, in part because Watson led the Tigers to a win over Jackson's Cardinals in October.
"Since (Watson) won that game (against Louisville), I would probably give him my vote," Peppers said. "Whenever you have two Heisman finalists facing one another -- it was a very, very good game -- but at the end of the day, Deshaun Watson still came away with the victory. That's who I'd definitely give my vote to, even though you can't knock what Lamar Jackson has done."

Even though the Heisman Trophy presentation will be the big focus in college football this weekend, the FCS Playoffs are worth keeping an eye on as well. No. 1 seed North Dakota State, the five-time defending national champs, have an intriguing matchup against No. 8 seed South Dakota State.
