Heisman Watch - Has Troy Smith wrapped it up?

Troy Smith impressed everyone with his win over Michigan, and has pretty much wrapped up the Heisman. But is the race truly over?
Darren McFadden, a sophmore out of Arkansas, leads the SEC in rushing yards, and is considered by many as the best running back to come out of the SEC since Bo Jackson.
Brady Quinn at Notre Dame, to have a chance, needs an impressive win against USC to pull within reach of Smith.
Steve Slaton from West Virginia, and Colt Brennan (the QB from Hawaii) are both very impressive, but will not probably warrant a consideration.
The most talented player in the race is Calvin Johnson from Georgia Tech, but the Heisman is more than just the most talented player, it goes to the player that has the most impact on their team. Troy Smith is that player.
Besides, as well as McFadden is doing, he's a sophmore, and has two more years to seal his bid as a Heisman winner.
But you never know. Things happen. Troy Smith could suddenly get beaten badly and embarrass his team.
Stranger things have happened.
But I think Troy Smith has it, whether the fans of other teams like it or not.
