One last look at the Heisman race odds and candidate performances

We’re about to witness another Heisman ceremony on Saturday, and Ohio State has a horse in the race yet again with quarterback C.J. Stroud. All told, there are four finalists that were invited to New York and one of them will walk away with the latest bronze statue to be handed out.

Stroud was the leader in the race for the majority of the season, but the loss to Michigan has put things into serious jeopardy, and it would appear that there is a new frontrunner.

It’s all a bit of speculation, but we’ll know for sure who takes home the most coveted individual award in all of American Sports Saturday night.
