The Heisman race is tight; the stage is set for a great finish. Defending Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel and Florida State redshirt sophomore Jameis Winston are generally regarded as the top two contenders through 12 weeks of the season, with Oregons Marcus Mariota and the late-charging Bryce Petty of Baylor still within reach of college sports most coveted individual trophy. Manziels remaining schedule features fellow SEC heavyweights LSU and Missouri; two big opportunities for Texas A&M to work their way back into the BCS Bowl conversation and Manziel to make a favourable late season impression on Heisman voters. Winstons schedule is certainly a little lighter. The Seminoles end the regular season with matchups against Idaho and a disappointing Florida squad on Rivalry Weekend, and shouldnt expect much of a boost in the ACC Championship game with the No. 25 Duke Blue Devils the current favourites to challenge them for the Conference. Mariota meanwhile will face two decent but unspectacular Pac-12 rivals to finish out the regular season, but will benefit from the Conference championship game they are now back in the drivers seat to host, with it likely being a rematch against UCLA. The redshirt sophomore QB was pedestrian in his first meeting with the Bruins – a 42-14 drubbing earlier this season – and will need to be significantly better to make a finish line push for the Heisman. And as for Petty, the Bears finish with one big test and two middling ones as they look to clinch the Big 12. The Conference is awarded without a championship but Petty, the late-season riser in this race, could really make some noise if he helps keep Baylor undefeated and in the BCS Championship race after games against Oklahoma State, TCU, and Texas.

The fourth-quarter melee was set off by New York centre Nick Mangolds low hit on New Englands Aqib Talib after an interception that sealed the Patriots 13-10 victory. Jets right guard Willie Colon led the way with $34,125 in fines -- $26,250 for contact with an official, and $7,875 for punching an opponent. Colon said Thursday he planned to appeal the fine, saying it "was way more than I expected." Jets left tackle DBrickashaw Ferguson was fined $15,000 for punching a Patriots player, while New Englands Michael Buchanan, Alfonzo Dennard and Vince Wilfork were docked $7,875 each for throwing punches. Mangold was not fined, and Talib said earlier this week that he didnt think the hit was dirty. Patriots defensive end Chandler Jones was also fined $15,750 for hitting Jets quarterback Geno Smith in the head and neck area. Tennessees Jackie Battle was fined $21,000, becoming the first running back docked for lowering the crown of his helmet into an opponent. He hit Houstons Danieal Manning -- violating a new rule in effect this season -- on a play during the Texans 30-24 overtime victory last Sunday, but was not penalized on the field. According to the rule, Article 8, its a foul if "a runner or tackler initiates forcible contact by delivering a blow with the top/crown of his helmet against an opponent when both players are clearly outside the tackle box." "I didnt expect it," Battle said, adding that he was appealing. "I thought it was a perfectly legal play. Ive been running like that my whole career, so I didnt think theyd get me for it. It came yesterday. I couldnt even eat lunch. "It made me sick." The NFL also fined Washington safety Brandon Meriweather $42,000 earlier this week for driving hiss helmet into the chin of Green Bay running back Eddie Lacy, who suffered a concussion.dddddddddddd Meriweather later left the game after giving himself a concussion on a helmet-to-helmet hit on Packers running back James Starks. Other big fines announced earlier in the week included Titans safety Bernard Pollard and Texans cornerback Kareem Jackson each being docked $42,000 for hits. Pollard, who said he is appealing, left Andre Johnson with a concussion after he helped knock him out of bounds near the goal line late in regulation. Jackson left his feet and hit Titans receiver Kendall Wright in the head. Jackson was flagged for unnecessary roughness. Tampa Bays Dashon Goldson had his one-game suspension lifted earlier this week for hitting New Orleans Darren Sproles in the head, but was fined $100,000. The Buccaneers had two others fined this week, though: $21,000 each to safety Ahmad Black and defensive end Adrian Clayborn for illegal hits. Black had a late hit on Saints tight end Jimmy Graham that drew an unnecessary roughness penalty. Clayborn was penalized by the league for a helmet-to-helmet hit on quarterback Drew Brees. Philadelphia linebacker DeMeco Ryans was also fined $21,000 for his hit to the head and neck area of San Diego wide receiver Malcom Floyd, who was carted off the field and taken to a hospital. Floyd didnt practice all week and will miss at least Sundays game at Tennessee. Chicago cornerback Charles Tillman was docked $15,750 for a horse-collar tackle of Minnesota wide receiver Greg Jennings. Tennessee centre Robert Turner and Washington offensive lineman Will Montgomery were each fined $10,000 for illegal peel-back blocks. Cleveland linebacker Paul Kruger was fined $7,875 for pulling off an opponents helmet, while Washington long snapper Nick Sundberg was docked $7,875 for unnecessary roughness when he hit Green Bays M.D. Jennings during a skirmish on a punt.
