The 5 Biggest Winners and Losers of Week 12: The Vols, LSU, and BYU fall

This weekend gave us another massive weekend of College Football with a massive game between Georgia and Tennessee, some upsets and upset scares, and some massive individual performances. We continue to approach Conference Championships and the College Football Playoff yet, nothing is clear as this season has been a rollercoaster. After a wild week 12, here are the five biggest winners and losers of a jam packed weekend.

Winner - Travis Hunter and Ashton Jeanty's Heisman Campaigns

The Heisman has been an Award given to the Quarterback on the best team as of late but, this year that won't be the case. The Heisman Trophy race is seemingly down to two great candidates in Colorado's WR and Cornerback Travis Hunter and Boise State's Running Back Ashton Jeanty.

Travis Hunter got to start the day off and he did it in impressive fashion starting with an interception which he finished off by hitting the Heisman Pose.

As the Buffaloes tried to build on their lead, Deion Sanders went for a 4th and 8 at midfield which was a crazy decision but, when Travis Hunter can make plays like this maybe it isn't so crazy.

Hunter finished the game with five catches for 55 yards, 5 yards rushing and a touchdown, and 3 tackles with an interception on defense.

Many figured that Travis Hunter may have pulled away in the race but Ashton Jeanty said not so fast late on Saturday Night. The running back picked up 159 yards on 32 carries scoring three touchdowns in the Broncos 42-21 win. On the season, Jeanty has rushed for 1,734 yards and 23 touchdowns averaging 7.7 yards per carry and has the Broncos right in the conversation for the College Football Playoff.

Loser - Tennessee Volunteers

The Tennessee Volunteers entered the game with a chance to knock Georgia out of the College Football Playoff race. This year Tennessee entered the game with what was seen as the better defense for the first time under Josh Heupel and they got to go against Carson Beck who struggled mightily against Ole Miss.

The Volunteers jumped out to a 10-0 lead but from that point on it was all Bulldogs as Georgia was in control the rest of the night. Carson Beck picked the Vols apart and if his receivers caught a few of their drops Georgia would've rolled to victory. The biggest concern if you're a Tennessee fan has to be the offense especially as Nico Iamaleava hasn't played all that well this season. In his four games against Georgia, Josh Heupel is 0-4 and hasn't scored 20 points in any of the games.

The Vols are still very much alive in the College Football Playoff race but, the early season loss to Arkansas will keep them from playing in the SEC Championship Game.
