Duggan was announced as a Heisman finalist along with Stetson Bennett of Georgia, C.J. Stroud of Ohio State and Caleb Williams of Southern California.
In tears, Max Duggan discusses TCU loss and Playoff chances
Conspicuously absent from the list of finalists is Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker, who was the leader of the nation’s No. 1 offense before his season ended Nov. 19 because of a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee.From backup QB to Heisman contender, Max Duggan is leading TCU on a historic season.
"I think if you watch this game today, I think it’s pretty clear that he’s certainly deserving to, if not win the Heisman Trophy, to certainly be in the conversation," first-year TCU coach Sonny Dykes said. "His performance has been gritty week after week after week. The guy is one of the best players in college football. I think it’s pretty obvious."
"I don’t even know what to think right now," Bennett said. "We have a lot of good players who make me look good. It’s special. This honor is all about my teammates and this team. I wouldn’t be here if we didn’t have the team that we have. This honor is for them." Of Georgia’s three all-time wins over a No. 1-ranked team, Bennett was quarterback for two of them. He was at the controls for the Bulldogs’ win over Alabama in the national championship game last January, and he passed for two TDs and ran for another in a 27-13 win over Tennessee last month.
But he struggled against Northwestern, the worst team in the Big Ten, and he couldn’t rally the Buckeyes in the second half of their most recent game, a 45-23 home loss to Michigan.
