Ashton Jeanty, Travis Hunter new Heisman Trophy favorites

Ashton Jeanty

For the first time this year, a pair of non-quarterbacks — Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty and Colorado two-way star Travis Hunter — sit atop the DraftKings Heisman Trophy odds, replacing Alabama quarterback Jalen Milroe, who held the top spot until this week.

Jeanty, who leads the nation with 1,031 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns, leapfrogged Milroe, Hunter and Miami quarterback Cam Ward to take the spot at +225. Jeanty moved up from +1000 last week after not appearing on the odds list in July or in Week 1.

Hunter, who leads the Big 12 with 46 receptions and also has six TDs and 561 receiving yards, moved up from +700 last week to +300 this week. Hunter, who as a cornerback also has two interceptions, 16 tackles (including one for loss), three pass breakups and a forced fumble this season, did not appear on the odds list in Week 1 or July, either.

Fresh off leading a historic 25-point comeback in Miami’s 39-38 victory over Cal on Saturday, Ward moved up to third at +400 after coming in at +500 last week. Ward, who leads the nation in passing yards (2,219) and touchdown passes (20), has moved up from +2200 in July and +950 in Week 1.

Milroe, who came in at a season-high +250 last week, dropped to fourth at +1100 after Alabama’s 40-35 upset loss to Vanderbilt on Saturday. He was also at +1100 in Week after 1 after coming in at +1500 in July.

Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel, who threw two touchdowns in last week’s win over Michigan State, remains firmly in the running at +1500 after coming in at +1400 last week.

Meanwhile, Clemson quarterback Cade Klubnik (+1600) improved his odds with another strong performance last week against Florida State, moving past Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart (+1800) and Texas QB Quinn Ewers (+2000).
