To Win 2008 Heisman Trophy

The Bets Bets

Tim Tebow +300
Florida Junior quarterback
Tebow took the college football world by storm in 2007, becoming the first sophomore to win the award. If Tebow stays healthy, it’s his award to lose.

Chase Daniel +650
Missouri Senior quarterback
Daniel had the Missouri Tigers one win away from a spot in the BCS National Championship Game and will have his team in National Championship contention again in 2008.

Chris Wells +650
Ohio State Junior Running Back
Wells led the Buckeye rushing in 2007 and is considered the odds-on-favorite to be the first back drafted in the 2009 NFL Draft.

Todd Reesing +2000
Kansas Junior Quarterback
Reesing won’t be playing quarterback in the NFL at only 5-9, but is so masterful at not making mistakes he will definitely have a chance if the Jayhawks contend for the national title.

Sam Bradford +1600
Oklahoma Sophomore Quarterback
Bradford had a sensational first year as the Sooners QB and set a national freshman record for most TD passes in a season. It’s scary to think he’s only going to get better.

Michael Crabtree +1000
Texas Tech Sophomore Wide Receiver
Crabtree will definitely have a shot after posting absolutely sick numbers,(134 receptions for 1,962
and 22 touchdowns) last season. Crabtree also scored three touchdowns in four straight games at one point.

Contenders
Patrick White +1200
West Virginia Junior Quarterback
White guided West Virginia within one game of a national championship appearance last season and possesses jaw-dropping passing and running abilities. If the Mountaineers contend, so will White.

Rudy Carpenter +3000
Arizona State Senior Quarterback
The Sun Devils went 10-2 in the regular season under Carpenter last year. If the Sun Devils win the Pac-10, he’ll have a shot.

Todd Boeckman +3300
Senior QB Ohio State
Boeckman guided the Buckeyes to an 11-1 record last season and will get some Heisman attention if the Buckeyes contend for the national title.

Worth a Shot

Matthew Stafford +1500
Georgia Junior Quarterback
Stafford led Georgia to a Sugar Bowl season in 2007 and will be a serious candidate if the Bulldogs contend for the national championship again.

Graham Harrell +1000
Texas Tech Senior Quarterback
Harrell threw 48 touchdown passes and only 14 interceptions and could contend if the Red Raiders overachieve.

Pretenders

Colt McCoy +1500
Texas Junior Quarterback
McCoy fizzled in 2007 after a fine start, finishing with 22 touchdown passes and 18 interceptions. Unless he improves, he can kiss it goodbye.

Knowshon Moreno +1000
Georgia Sophomore Running Back
Moreno finished 2007 with 1,334 yards and 14 TD, nice numbers that could get him noticed if the Bulldogs shine again in 2008.

Dark Horses
These two players are two of the most athletically gifted players in the country and could shock the college football world.

Jeremy Maclin +5000
As a freshman in 2007, Maclin had a tremendous season, catching 80 passes for 1,055 yards and nine touchdowns while adding another 375 yards and four touchdowns on the ground.

Juice Williams +2200
Illinois Sophomore Quarterback
Williams may be the most athletically talented signal caller in all of college football. If the Fightin’ Illini contends, so will Williams.

The Rest

DeMarco Murray +1500

Eric Berry +5000

Jake Locker +2500

Joe McKnight +2000

John Parker Wilson +4000

Kellen Lewis +3300

LeSean McCoy +1000

Mark Sanchez +2000

Matt Grothe +5000

Percy Harvin +1000

PJ Hill +1500

Noel Devine +1800
