Las Vegas was built on the premise that it’s never too early for people to gamble. So on the heels of some updated odds on Heisman Trophy candidates for 2017, we’re stepping back from the table and telling you a few Heisman sleepers who Vegas apparently didn’t notice. Here are five SEC players not on the latest Heisman odds — and why they probably should be.

1) Damien Harris, Alabama

Bo Scarbrough and Jalen Hurts are both at 20/1, but Harris isn’t on the list. But in 2016, of the three, it was Harris who led the Tide in rushing, finishing with 1,037 yards at a healthy 7.1 yards per carry. Harris rushed for 1,000 yards without eclipsing 18 carries in any game. This tells us that if some sort of split exists between Harris, Scarbrough and/or Najee Harris, Damien won’t need a ton of carries to rack up big stats and big plays.

2) Sony Michel, Georgia

Nick Chubb and Jacob Eason make the list, but not Michel. A wily veteran with eight 100-yard rushing games in his career, Michel is a Heisman worthy first line of defense behind the incredibly brittle Chubb. He can split carries for half the season and spell the eternally injured Chubb for half and rack up a Heisman worth of big numbers.

3) Kerryon Johnson, Auburn

Similar to Michel, failing to include Johnson while including Jarrett Stidham and Kamryn Pettway seems a little short-sighted. Sure, Pettway is the more explosive runner. But he’s also the one with an injury history, while Johnson steadily rushed for 895 yards and 11 scores in 2016. He rushed for 94 yards against Clemson and 99 yards against Georgia, and if through luck or circumstance he finds himself not just splitting time for Auburn but being the feature back, he could have a Heisman kind of season.

4) Jordan Scarlet, Florida

No Florida player was on the Heisman list, which is a little odd for a list that includes a QB from a five-win team that is ineligible for a bowl in 2017. Feleipe Franks is probably the more glamorous pick, but Scarlet is a longshot who could just pay off. Remember, Florida has won the East the last two years, and if some type of offensive chemistry ever develops in Gainesville, they could luck into an SEC title. Scarlet rushed for 889 yards as a sophomore, including three 100-yard games in SEC play. Don’t count him out.

5) Minkah Fitzpatrick, Alabama

Sure, defensive players aren’t obvious Heisman choices. But who doesn’t remember Charles Woodson winning over Peyton Manning. Granted, Alabama probably isn’t using Fitzpatrick to catch passes or return kicks like Woodson did. But like Woodson, Fitzpatrick is a tremendous asset in pass coverage, and can make big plays once he gets his hands on the ball. In two seasons, Fitzpatrick has returned his eight interceptions for 274 yards and four touchdowns. If Alabama’s wealth of offensive skill players knock each other out of the Heisman running, then Fitzpatrick could sneak into the conversation.
