College football's politicking season is underway, with Clemson head coach making the case for Trevor Lawrence to win the 2020 Heisman Trophy.
Speaking after the Tigers' 34-10 win over Notre Dame in the ACC Championship Game, Swinney told reporters it "would be a crying shame" if his star quarterback didn't win the sport's most prestigious award.
"If you watch college football and you don't know that this is the best player in the country, I don't know what you are looking at," Swinney added.
Per FanDuel SportsBook, Alabama teammates Mac Jones (-160, bet $160 to win $100) and Devonta Smith (+200) are the current betting favorites to win the Heisman.
