Is Oklahoma QB Kyler Murray the Big 12's best Heisman Trophy candidate?

Chuck Carlton, Big 12 beat writer for SportsDayDFW.com and The Dallas Morning News, answered questions about the league during a live chat recently. Here are some of the highlights:

Question: Is Kyler Murray officially the Big 12's best shot at producing a Heisman Trophy winner this season?

Carlton: He's awfully, awfully good. Again, the Heisman right now is Tua Tagovailoa's to lose. But Murray is the Big 12's best hope, unless Will Grier goes on a tear after the loss at Iowa State. The West Virginia QB will have a chance to put himself back in the hunt, with games against Texas and Oklahoma, plus possibly the Big 12 title game.
