2025 Heisman Trophy odds

Carson Beck, QB, Miami (FL): +360

What to know: Beck finally had his first monster stat line in a big-time matchup, going 20 of 27 passing for 241 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions in a road win over No. 18 Florida State. Since 2010, only Trevor Lawrence (34-2) and Deshaun Watson (35-3) have a better win percentage among quarterbacks with 30-plus starts in that span. Beck is now 32-3 in his career and has a favorable schedule to put up gaudy numbers the rest of the way. 

Ty Simpson, QB, Alabama: +400

What to know: Simpson recorded three total TDs in a massive win against Georgia and followed it up with a whopping 340 passing yards and two passing TDs in a win over a formidable Vanderbilt squad, one that entered the matchup ranked No. 16 at 5-0. Then in Week 7, he helped lead the Tide to a 27-24 win over Missouri, and his odds shortened from +750. In that game, he threw for 200 yards and three touchdowns.

Fernando Mendoza, QB, Indiana: +600

What to know: After dropping a whopping 63 points on the Illini, Mendoza skyrocketed up the Heisman oddsboard, bolstered by that five-touchdown performance. In Week 7, his 215 yards and one touchdown helped topple No. 3 Oregon, and his Heisman odds surged from +1400 more to +600.

Jeremiah Smith, WR, Ohio State: +1200 

What to know: Smith has racked up 505 yards on 40 receptions with eight total touchdowns so far. In Ohio State's Week 7 game against Illinois, he had 42 receiving yards and one score. He is arguably one of the best wide receivers in the country and arguably the best overall player. 

Julian Sayin, QB, Ohio State: +1400

What to know: Sayin has 1,479 yards on the season, including 166 yards and two TDs in the Buckeyes' Week 7 victory over the Illini. One of his most notable performances this season was against Ohio, a game in which he passed for 347 yards and three touchdowns.

Dante Moore, QB, Oregon: +1600
