Bryce Young, Matt Corral currently co-favorites to win the Heisman Trophy
Published:
One loss doesn’t seem to make a difference in this year’s Heisman race. Despite several candidates this year with 1 loss on their record, it doesn’t seem to affect their odds of winning the Heisman.
According to DraftKings Sportsbook, the two favorites to win the award this year are two SEC quarterbacks: Alabama quarterback Bryce Young and Ole Miss quarterback Matt Corral.
As of now, they are tied for the lead as odds on favorites to win the award, both currently sporting +210 odds. Despite the Tide losing to Texas A&M Saturday, Young threw for 369 yards and 3 touchdowns. So far for the season, Young has thrown for over 1,700 yards and 20 touchdowns, with only 3 interceptions.
Corral bounced back last week after losing to the Tide with an impressive showing against Arkansas. Corral threw for 2 touchdowns and ran for 2 more in the Rebels’ 52-51 victory. On the season, Corral has thrown for 12 touchdowns with zero interceptions and has thrown for nearly 1,500 yards.
Both quarterbacks seem as if they may be getting invites to New York later this year.
