A superstar running back is currently favored to win the Heisman, but Will Hill says there's a better wager to make right now. Find out who he's backing at 25-1.
What an incredible sports weekend we have in front of us. We've got some marquee college football games with major postseason implications, a full NFL schedule, and the Major League Baseball playoffs whittling down its field to four. With an outstanding college slate on tap for Saturday, I think now is a good time to take a peek at the Heisman market. There is a new favorite to win this prestigious award, and it is the sensational Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty.
Will a running back playing against middling competition or a WR/CB on a team that is favored to lose four or five games break that trend? I’m not sure. Instead, I’d rather go with history and find a QB deeper down the board, and get more bang for my buck while I’m at it. I like Georgia quarterback Carson Beck at 25-1. His one blemish this season is a loss to Alabama. But even in defeat, he threw for 438 yards and led his team to a go-ahead score late in the fourth quarter in Tuscaloosa.
