Each editor picked their top three choices with the top candidate receiving five points, the second choice receiving three points, and the final choice receiving one point.

Check out the preseason version of the Heisman Poll.

Florida QB Anthony Richardson was the biggest riser going from No. 10 in the preseason poll to the top five after his performance against the Utah Utes. Stetson Bennett of Georgia is among the newcomers this week after his performance against Oregon over the weekend.

We break down how each of our 10 candidates fared in the poll, ties are listed in alphabetical order.
