The top ten has altered, with a few more running backs jumping into the top ten, while some players have dropped out of the rankings after struggling this weekend.
The biggest mover this week has to be Michigan's quarterback, Denard Robinson. Perhaps the most exciting player in the nation, Robinson lit up the Notre Dame defense for over 500 total yards of offense, including the longest run ever in Notre Dame's home stadium.
Right behind Robinson (in terms of biggest mover) is freshman running back Marcus Lattimore. The South Carolina halfback lit up the Georgia Bulldogs, running for 182 yards and two touchdowns, giving him 236 yards and four touchdowns on the season.
Another new face to the Heisman rankings is Oklahoma State's Kendall Hunter. The senior running back has quietly ran for 414 yards this season and six touchdowns, including four touchdowns against Washington State. If he continues this pace, Hunter will continue to climb the Heisman polls nationwide.
Looking at the list, you'll notice one name that was left off: QB Jacory Harris. Not only did the Hurricanes lose to Ohio State, but Harris threw four interceptions and just one touchdown. If he wanted to win the hardware this year, he would have had to pull out the victory over the Buckeyes in order to gain national recognition.
