What Peterson Needs To Do

Check out this story from The Oklahoman that talks about what Adrian Peterson needs to do to win the Heisman.

It’s all over the place for the most part, but it touches upon some of the things I’ve written in regards to Peterson’s chances.

Like many Heisman stories, it views Peterson’s candidacy in a vacuum. In reality, the race will come down to how he and the other three remaining candidates perform in key games and how they will measure up in relation to each other at season’s end.

Blair Kerkhoff of the Kansas City Star does make one salient observation:

“I’ve got to think if Adrian goes over 2,000 yards, OU could lose two or three games and he’d be right in the thick of things.”

That’s exactly right.
