Published:
There’s been a change to Heisman Trophy odds.
All season long, Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has been considered a heavy favorite to claim college football’s most prestigious individual honor. But following Championship Saturday, Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray is the new leader.
Bovada has played Murray’s odds at 1/2 while Tagovailoa is at 3/2 odds. Ohio State quarterback Dwayne Haskins’ odds dipped from 33/1 to 60/1.
Haskins easily had the best day of the three quarterbacks on Sunday, throwing for 499 yards and five touchdowns while completing 34-of-41 pass attempts. All of those marks were B1G Championship Game records. Ohio State defeated Northwestern 45-24.
Murray was 25-of-34 for 379 yards and three touchdowns in Oklahoma’s 39-27 victory over Texas. Tagovailoa had 164 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions in Alabama’s 35-28 win over Georgia, but left the game early due to injury.
The finalists for the Heisman Trophy will be announced during ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown show between 6:30 and 7:00 p.m. ET.
