Each week this college football season, BetFTW will take a look at the 2022 Heisman Trophy race and break down the contenders. Check back each Monday as the best college football players in the country jockey for position with both oddsmakers and bettors. Preseason odds can be found here and Week 6 here.
Every year, there’s talk about a player having their “Heisman moment”. Tennessee quarterback Hendon Hooker may have had his on Saturday as he threw for 385 yards and completed five touchdown passes to help the Vols lock down their first win over Alabama since 2006. That’s the kind of performance that will get everyone’s attention, and that came through in his Heisman odds jumping from +1400 in Week 6 to +600 in Week 7.
