The PAC Twelver: 12 thoughts about the week on the West Coast

Related Topics: Bryce Love

First: Bryce Love is the clear-cut favorite for the Heisman Trophy at this early stage of the season, coming off PAC-12 Player of the Week honors for his efforts in the 58-34 win against UCLA (30 rushes / 263 yards / 8.8 ypc / 1 TD). Love has rushed 73 times for 787 yards in the four games Stanford has played, an average of 10.8 yards per carry, and 5 touchdowns. Yes, on average, that is a first down every time he touches the football. As I have written before, his only negative thus far is the fact that he did not get the ball nearly enough against USC and SDSU, which contributed to two losses.
