JAMES WHITE
SENIOR, RB, WISCONSIN
HEISMAN CREDENTIALS
James White is looking to make history for #4 Wisconsin by bringing the team back-to-back Heisman trophies, and he certainly has the credentials to do so. Over the course of the regular season, White carried the ball 260 times for 1,819 yards (1st in the NCAA) and 25 touchdowns (1st in the NCAA) for an average of 6.9 yards per carry (1st in the NCAA), and also had 21 receptions for 314 yards and another five scores. Wisconsin's offense ranked 2nd in the country, finished the season with a 10-2 (7-2) record, and will end the year in the Allstate Sugar Bowl against #8 Oklahoma.

CONNOR WOOD
JUNIOR, QB, TEXAS
HEISMAN CREDENTIALS
Texas has wrapped up yet another incredible season with their first PAC-16 conference title, and stand as one of just two unbeaten teams left in the nation with the BCS National Championship game looming in the horizon. Much of their success can be attributed to junior quarterback Connor Wood, who in his first year as starter led the nation's top-ranked passing attack, and gave the offense an average of 37.6 points per game (2nd in the NCAA). Wood completed 55% (10th in the NCAA) of his 403 passes for 3,160 yards (1st in the NCAA), 40 touchdowns (1st in the NCAA), and only 11 interceptions.

AARON MURRAY
SENIOR, QB, GEORGIA
HEISMAN CREDENTIALS
Aaron Murray may not have led the nation in yards or touchdowns, but he was extremely effective under center for the Bulldogs in 2013. His 161.5 QB rating was the best in the nation as he completed 56% (5th in the NCAA) of his 317 passes for 2,854 yards (5th in the NCAA), 31 touchdowns (2nd in the NCAA), and just five interceptions, the fewest amount for any quarterback who attempted more than 250 passes on the season. Georgia finished the year with the nation's top-ranked overall offense, and averaged a league-best 39.8 points per game. They ended the regular season with an 8-4 (5-4) record, and will meet Iowa in the Progressive Gator Bowl.

MARQUISE GOODWIN
SENIOR, WR, TEXAS
HEISMAN CREDENTIALS
Connor Wood's favorite target was senior Marquise Goodwin, who more than doubled his production from last year. Goodwin had 68 receptions (12th in the NCAA) for 1,080 yards (5th in the NCAA) and 18 touchdowns (1st in the NCAA) with only two dropped passes on the year. He also contributed in the return game, where he racked up 1,076 yards on kick and punt returns.

JARVIS BYRD
SENIOR, CB, NC STATE
HEISMAN CREDENTIALS
NC State finished the regular season with a 9-3 (7-3) record, then dismantled Maryland 33-10 to win the ACC conference title and earn a spot in the Discover Orange Bowl against #5 USF. Statistically, the Wolfpack struggled in most areas, but their +17 turnover differential was the best in the nation.
