Vick's away so Crouch gets some play

ESPN.com

While Nebraska's Eric Crouch earned more first place votes after his five touchdown performance against Iowa, Virginia Tech's Michael Vick is still the leader in ESPN.com's Heisman Poll.

Vick, who was on a bye last Saturday, earned three first place votes and leads with 34 points. Crouch, who was 10 of 13 for 159 yards and 5 TDs and added 93 yards rushing, is second after snagging four first place votes and 31 points.

Florida State's Chris Weinke, who received the other two first place votes, slips to third after completing 19 of 30 for 221 yards, one TD and three interceptions against Louisville. Purdue's Drew Brees, who threw for 409 yards and two TDs against Minnesota, is fourth with 12 points and TCU's LaDainian Tomlinson, who rushed for 140 yards and two TDs, is fifth.

The Heisman Poll features nine ESPN coaches, analysts and writers, and will appear weekly during the season. Panelists are asked to vote for their top five and players are awarded five points for a first-place vote, four for second and so on down the line.
