"That's right."

Leading off

It's depth-chart Wednesday. As we do every week, here are the links to the teams playing this week followed by any significant notes. Washington is on bye this week, so we'll update the Huskies next week. The other 11 teams are in action. UCLA is the only team that doesn't do a weekly depth chart. Enjoy!

Notes

  • At Arizona, despite being listed the first four weeks as a potential starter at strong linebacker, Makani Kema-Kaleiwahea is officially off the depth chart after announcing his transfer. He didn't record a tackle in the first four games (depth charts are so awesome!).

  • At Cal, Y receiver Stephen Anderson has dropped the "or" next to his name with Darius Powe.

  • At Colorado, Jimmie Gilbert moves into the starting spot at right defensive end.

  • At Oregon, it looks like there are two scenarios for whether Jake Fisher returns this week. It's either Fisher at LT, or Tyrell Crosby. If Crosby moves, Matt Pierson moves from left to right tackle. In special teams, Thomas Tyner is listed as the first kick returner and Charles Nelson is listed first at punt returns.

  • At Oregon State, Siale Hautau moves in at left tackle for the injured Jalen Grimble (see story below). And it looks like Trevor Romaine is back to full-time kicking status.

  • At Washington State, Sulaiman Hameed moves up to start at strong safety, while Darius Lemora moves to free safety.

Heisman chatter

The Heisman Pundit has released its weekly straw poll. As always, it is made up of 10 anonymous Heisman voters. And despite a bye week, Oregon quarterback Marcus Mariota hasn't slipped a bit. Here are the results of this week's poll. Mariota received seven of the 10 first place votes.

  1. Marcus Mariota, QB, Oregon -- 23 (7)

  2. Todd Gurley, RB, Georgia -- 18 (3)

  3. Kenny Hill, QB, Texas A&M -- 7

  4. Amari Cooper, WR, Alabama -- 5

  5. Ameer Abdullah, RB, Nebraska -- 4

  6. Melvin Gordon, RB, Wisconsin -- 2

  7. Jameis Winston, QB, Florida State -- 1

Chip Patterson of CBS also weighs in on Mariota and notes that Brett Hundley climbed back into the conversation with his performance against ASU.
