I *have* thought about it. And I've come to the conclusion that Banks is benefitting from an easy schedule.

Banks is having a very good year. Wallace is having a very good year--
against one of the toughest schedules in the nation.
Iowa State's next two games (against #3 Oklahoma and #2 Texas) will be the measuring stick as to whether Wallace locks up the Heisman or falls off the radar altogether.
