NEW YORK (AP) --- Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love, Indiana quarterback
Fernando Mendoza, Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia and Ohio State quarterback
Julian Sayin are the finalists for the Heisman Trophy for the top player in
college football.
The Heisman Trophy Trust announced the finalists Monday night, who are invited
to New York for the award presentation Saturday night.
Love is fourth in the Bowl Subdivision in yards rushing (1,372), fifth in
per-game average (114.33) and third with 18 rushing touchdowns for the
ninth-ranked Fighting Irish, who missed on a College Football Playoff bid and
opted not to play in a bowl game.
Mendoza has guided the Hoosiers to a No. 1 ranking and the top line of the
12-team CFP bracket, throwing for 2,980 yards and a national-best 33 touchdown
passes while also running for six scores.
Pavia has thrown for a school-record 3,192 yards and 27 touchdowns, and is the
first Heisman finalist for the No. 13 Commodores.
Sayin led the Buckeyes to a No. 1 ranking for most of the season, throwing for
3,329 yards while tying for second nationally with 31 TD passes.
