The two early leaders for the 2023 Heisman Trophy combined for nine touchdowns on Saturday night after most of the country had gone to sleep.

Caleb Williams, the 2022 Heisman winner, accounted for five touchdowns in USC’s 42-28 road win at Arizona State while Washington QB Michael Penix threw for four touchdowns in the Huskies’ 59-32 thrashing of Cal at home.

Williams, meanwhile, is at risk of having his greatness being taken for granted. He’s continued to produce highlight after highlight in 2023. He was 20-of-31 passing for 322 yards and three scores against the Sun Devils and also added two rushing touchdowns. Rocco Becht had his best game in an ISU uniform against Oklahoma State with 348 passing yards and three touchdowns. Becht was named the starter out of fall camp after last year’s starter Hunter Dekkers was accused of betting on Iowa State games as a member of the Cyclones in 2021.

With an off week upcoming in Week 5 before home games against defending Big 12 champions Kansas State and No. 24 Kansas, the Cowboys need to pick things up in a hurry. Otherwise, they're in real danger of posting their first losing season since Gundy’s first year in 2005.Iowa’s offensive futility hit a new low on Saturday night in State College.
