Overview
- Sayin enters Week 11 as the betting favorite for the Heisman (BetMGM +175, FanDuel about +180) after a 316‑yard, four‑touchdown performance against Penn State.
- Ohio State’s redshirt freshman leads FBS in completion rate at 80.7% with 2,188 yards, 23 touchdowns and three interceptions for the 8‑0, CFP No. 1 Buckeyes.
- Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza and Alabama’s Ty Simpson follow on odds boards, with Mendoza coming off a lighter statistical outing and Simpson steady after a bye.
- Texas A&M’s Marcel Reed stays in contention and gets a national showcase at Missouri in one of the week’s only ranked matchups featuring a Heisman hopeful.
- Ohio State launched a “We Sayin Heisman” campaign as Sayin was named a Shaun Alexander Freshman of the Year semifinalist, and analysts view a likely Indiana–Ohio State Big Ten title game as a potential tiebreaker.
