*odds as of October 14, 2024

Current Favorites

Ashton Jeanty (Boise State Broncos): A running back has not won the Heisman since 2015, but if anyone can break that streak, it would be Jeanty. After his 217-yard and one-touchdown performance over the weekend, the Boise State star leads the FBS in rushing yards (1,248) and touchdowns (17). Jeanty doesn't just lead all of college football in rushing, but he is close to 300 yards ahead of the second-leading rusher in the country.

Dillon Gabriel (Oregon Ducks): Gabriel opened the season as the Heisman favorite in some shops, but after a slow start to the season, it took a win over Ohio State to get him back into the top three on the odds board. With 341 yards and two touchdowns over the Buckeyes, Gabriel now has 1,790 yards and 13 touchdowns on the year.

Cam Ward (Miami Hurricanes): In his first game as a member of the Miami Hurricanes, Ward put on a show over Florida in a big statement win. The transfer QB threw for 385 yards and three touchdowns while completing 74.3% of his passes. Unsurprisingly, Ward put on five more dominant showings, and after throwing for 437 yards and two touchdowns in a narrow win over Cal, the Canes QB now has 2,219 yards and 20 touchdowns on the season.
