2011 Heisman Trophy Winner Contenders
Let's first look at Andrew Luck who became the favorite to win this season's Heisman Trophy when he announced his return to Stanford University for the start of the 2011 season.
Luck seems to have everything going for him. Besides earning a 3.5 GPA in architectural design at Stanford, he is also favorite to be the number one overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft. Add to that the Heisman Trophy, and this quarterback will have definitely earned himself a hat-trick!
The quarterback enjoyed an excellent 2010 season, topping 3,000 passing yards and completing over 70% of his passes. However, he didn't win the trophy last year, despite these stats, and will have to do even better this year - maybe even lead his team to victory - if he wants a shot this time around.
Landry Jones, the Oklahoma Sooners quarterback, is Luck's biggest nemesis in the race towards the trophy, at odds of 350 at Bodog. This top tier player plays for a team that is currently ranked number one in the NCAA, and could prove to be a worthy rival for Luck.
If quarterback Kellen Moore, with odds of 400, wins the Heisman, he could be a big liability for Bodog. He has a phenomenal track record, which includes completing nearly 70% of his passes, a 5-1 touchdown to interception ration and leading an undefeated Boise State.
