Michael Penix Jr. of Washington and Bo Nix of Oregon are leading the Heisman Trophy odds, according to Caesars Sportsbook, heading into Week 11.
The 2023 Heisman Trophy race is coming down the home stretch. After 10 weeks of the college football regular season, a handful of players have made their case for the most prestigious individual award in sports. But no single player has been able to separate himself from the pack. SUPER BOWL CHAMP RIPS USC'S CALEB WILLIAMS FOR CRYING AFTER GAME: 'COME ON, MAN' With just three weeks left in the regular season, there is limited time for players to make their case.
With Washington undefeated and sitting at No. 5 in the College Football Rankings, Penix Jr. is steering a team that has a real shot at the CFP. He leads the nation in passing yards and is third in passing touchdowns . Bo Nix, Oregon – +180 Oregon quarterback Bo Nix has climbed up the Heisman conversation. The veteran QB is completing 78.1% of his passes and has thrown for 25 touchdowns against just two picks.
McCarthy with have ample opportunity to make his case for the Heisman as the Wolverines travel to Happy Valley to take on No. 10 Penn State in Week 11 before facing Michigan on Nov. 25. 'He certainly has an opportunity this week,' Feazel said. 'There’s been a lot of talk of ‘Michigan hasn’t played anybody. It’s a weak schedule. He hasn’t proved anything.’ If he goes out and he has an impressive win against Penn State this weekend, certainly he’s in the mix.
Only three true wide receivers have won the Heisman, with Alabama’s DeVonta Smith the last non-QB to win the award in 2021. Harrison Jr. has 52 catches for 914 yards and 10 touchdowns on the year. Others in the mix: Jayden Daniels, LSU – +3500 Jalen Milroe, Alabama – +4000 Ollie Gordon II, Oklahoma State – +5000 Drake Maye, North Carolina – +7500 Kyle McCord, Ohio State – +10000
