Young: FACT. With a major caveat. Honestly, I could have answered this either way for a number of reasons — Miller Moss has played one full game, USC is getting its first look at a Big Ten schedule, there are real offensive line questions — but the biggest reason to say fiction here would be USC’s schedule. The Trojans’ have a front-loaded gauntlet that includes LSU (in Las Vegas), reigning national champion Michigan on the road, Wisconsin, a road game at Minnesota and then Penn State. Moss could put up great stats in those games, but if the Trojans are 3-3 (including a home game with Utah State) he is not going to be a Heisman contender regardless of numbers. So why am I saying fact despite that? Well, it would be foolish to outright dismiss any Lincoln Riley QB as a Heisman contender considering he’s coached three winners and a runner-up.
