Ashton Jeanty Emerges as Heisman Trophy Favorite

Boise State's running back leads the race after a standout performance, surpassing previous frontrunners in the odds.

  • Ashton Jeanty, Boise State's running back, now leads the Heisman Trophy odds after a stellar Week 6 performance.
  • Jeanty has rushed for 1,031 yards and 16 touchdowns in just five games, putting him on pace to break long-standing records.
  • Travis Hunter of Colorado, a two-way player, is a close second in the Heisman odds, showcasing impressive stats on both offense and defense.
  • Miami's quarterback Cam Ward and Alabama's Jalen Milroe remain in contention, though Milroe's odds have slipped following a loss to Vanderbilt.
  • Despite Jeanty's rise, some analysts caution against betting on him due to potential conference bias favoring quarterbacks from major programs.
