On Tuesday, Bovada released their early odds for who they thought would win the Heisman Trophy next season. Stanford running back Bryce Love led the pack at 7-to-1 odds, while Ohio State’s J.K. Dobbins had the fifth best odds at 12-to-1.
Oh, how things can change overnight.
By Wednesday, the odds took a dramatic shift. Dobbins charged up to the top of the odds table, and now sits as a 6-to-1 favorite. He’s not alone at the top of the Heisman odds board, though. Wisconsin RB Jonathan Taylor, who was named Big Ten Freshman of the Year this past season, also has 6-to-1 odds at bringing home the coveted college football trophy. Prior to Wednesday, Taylor had the second best odds at 8-to-1.
Dobbins isn’t the only Buckeye on the shortlist with Heisman odds, either. Defensive lineman Nick Bosa shows up on the Bovada list at 75-to-1 odds. Those odds have remained the same over the past couple days.
Love’s odds remain unchanged at 7-to-1, and he now sits with the third best odds in the field. Behind him in fourth is Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who guided the Crimson Tide to a dramatic second half comeback against Georgia in the national championship game.
Below is the table of Heisman odds.
