Bo Nix jumps to top tier of Heisman Trophy odds after 6 TD performance vs. Cal
Do you remember a few weeks ago when I encouraged Oregon Duck fans who believed in Bo Nix to put some money down on the QB to win the Heisman Trophy?
That advice came after the loss to the Washington Huskies in Week 7 when Nix’s odds had plummeted to plus-4000, which was the eighth worst.
I hope you listened.
Since then, Oregon’s QB has been on an absolute heater, seeing his betting odds to win the Heisman Trophy improve drastically each week. Today, they are among the best odds in the nation.
With a six touchdown performance against California on Saturday, one in which he completed 76% of his passes and had just under 400 yards passing, it’s clear Nix is one of the heavy favorites to win the award. Some betting sites even have him as the outright favorite heading into Week 11.
