'I'm One Of the Best In the Country': TAMU's Marcel Reed Joins RG3's 'Outta Pocket'

Texas A&M quarterback Marcel Reed joins the newest episode of "Outta Pocket With RGIII" for a special interview with Robert Griffin III to discuss why he should've been a Heisman Trophy finalist, who he feels should've been named as finalists, Lane Kiffin going to LSU and much more.

"I'm one of the best players in the country," Reed told Griffin and his wife and co-host, Grete. "This team has helped me out a lot. We've got guys around me that have helped me to get to this point and the record shows it. … It's hard to win games in the SEC, it's hard to win 11 straight. A lot of people don't do that."

Reed's Aggies (11-1) nearly secured a perfect season before dropping the season finale to Texas, but the loss wasn't enough to derail their College Football Playoff hopes as they were named the No. 7 seed on Dec. 7. 

In regard to the rest of the Heisman field, Reed listed Vanderbilt QB Diego Pavia, Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza, Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love and, of course, himself as the best candidates. He also revealed his pick for his quintessential "Heisman moment" (*hint: the moment coincided with the biggest comeback in Texas A&M history).

"I hit a switch, for sure. … I was just in my own mind. It was me and God at that point," said Reed.
