Justin Fields is closing fast in the Heisman race.

The Ohio State quarterback vaulted into second
place in this week’s USA TODAY Network survey.

Alabama quarterback Mac Jones continues to
hold the lead with a majority of first-place men-
tions. But with the Crimson Tide in an open date
and Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence unable to play
because of COVID-19 protocols, Fields made a big
move thanks to another ultra-efficient passing day
in the Buckeyes’ win against Rutgers. Through
three games, Fields has thrown as many TD
passes, 11, as incompletions. He was listed second
by over half of the 22 survey participants who
work for USA TODAY Network properties and have
official Heisman votes.

Lawrence, who won’t return to action until Clemson’s next game Nov. 21 against Florida State, is now in a close battle for third with two other prolific passers, Flori- da’s Kyle Trask and Zach Wilson of BYU.

Jones’ teammate, running back Najee Harris, who shares the national lead with 14 rushing TDs, remains on the radar. In all, nine players appeared on ballots this week. Iowa State running back Breece Hall and Liberty quarterback Malik Willis were named for the first time this season. — Eddie Timanus Player, school, position, year 1st 2nd 3rd Pts

MAIORANA/USA TODAY SPORTS
Ohio State quarterback Fields impressing trophy voters as Jones leads Notre Dame’s 47-40 win against
Clemson sends the Fighting Irish ris-
ing in the projected College Football
Playoff rankings and creates a plausi-
ble scenario in which two teams from
the Atlantic Coast Conference end up
in the national semifinals.

Let’s begin with Notre Dame. Beat-
ing the Tigers puts the Irish at the front
of the line in the ACC and creates
enough wiggle room to lose once and
still get into the playoff, especially if
that loss comes to Clemson.

There will very likely be a rematch
between the two teams in the ACC
championship game. By winning the
second matchup, Clemson would en-
ter the postseason as a one-loss Power
Five champion with enough of a recent
track record to sail into the semifinals.

But the Irish would also be in pos-
session of a strong case for the top four
under this condition: Notre Dame wins
out the rest of the way and loses only to
the Tigers.

Another pathway to the playoff with
one loss – let’s say it comes at North
Carolina on Nov. 27 – would require
beating Clemson twice in one season.

If obviously possible, the rematch
would see the Tigers closer to full
strength, with Trevor Lawrence back
at quarterback and James Skalski and
Tyler Davis back on defense.

For the first time in the history of
the postseason format, the ACC might
occupy the spotlight in determining
the makeup of the playoff.

Here’s how the top four would look
today, followed by the four teams just
on the outside:

1. Alabama: No longer the winner-
take-all matchup some might’ve ex-
pected in the preseason, Alabama’s
scheduled game against LSU this week
is instead a pairing of the nation’s No. 2
offense against the No. 116 defense.

2. Notre Dame: Prior to Saturday
night, Notre Dame’s last win against a
No. 1 opponent came against Florida
State in 1993. The Irish followed that
with a shocking 41-39 loss to Boston
College. Up next for the Irish: BC.

3. Ohio State: In 20 games with
Ryan Day as the permanent head
coach, the Buckeyes have scored 72
touchdowns on 93 trips to the red
zone, a 77.4% touchdown rate.

4. Clemson: When was the last time
Clemson allowed 500 yards of offense to
an ACC opponent? Louisville in 2016.

The last time Clemson allowed at least
200 yards rushing and 300 passing?
Against Georgia to open the ’13 season.

Lurking

5. Texas A&M:The Aggies’ 7.36 yards
per play in Saturday’s 48-3 win against
South Carolina was the program’s high-
est per-play average against a South-
eastern Conference opponent under
Jimbo Fisher.

6. Florida: Kyle Trask played his way
into Heisman Trophy contention after
throwing for four TDs in the big win
against Georgia, making him the first
quarterback in SEC history to toss at
least four scores in five games in a row.

7. Cincinnati: The Bearcats limited
Houston to 282 yards of offense and 3.3
yards per carry in the latest dominant
performance from one of the nation’s
best defenses.

8. Indiana: A combined 2-61 since
1968 against Penn State and Michigan,
the Hoosiers are 2-0 against those blue
bloods in 2020 and on the verge of the
program’s most successful finish since
1967.

At this point, there’s no team worthy
of moving ahead of Clemson and into
the top four. Along with the fact that it
took two overtimes, a factor to consider
when weighing how the Tigers will be
viewed for the playoff is how the selec-
tion committee will weigh the missing
pieces during Saturday’s loss.

Will the committee give Clemson
credit for nearly winning without Law-
rence under center? Maybe, though the
fact that D.J. Uiagalelei set a single-
game record for passing yards against
Notre Dame does damage to that case.

The losses on defense were far more
important. Down pieces up front, mul-
tiple linebackers and hurting for proven
depth, Clemson’s typically outstanding
unit was eventually worn down by Ian
Book and the Notre Dame offense.

Brigham Young will also test the
committee. Beating Boise State handily
helps the Cougars’ case, but the com-
mittee won’t be too impressed by the
team’s overall strength of schedule. In
the end, however, BYU’s high quality of
play could be too much to ignore.
