Heisman Trophy Odds 2025: Betting Movement & Takeaways After Week 7

Last Updated: October 12, 2025 8:03 AM EDT • 3 minute read X Social Google News Link

There are no clear-cut front-runners in the Heisman Trophy odds following a chaotic Week 7 in college football, which only confirmed that this is one of the most underwhelming Heisman races in recent memory.
Though Miami's Carson Beck is the new Heisman Trophy odds favorite, he's only taken the top spot after Oregon's Dante Moore disappointed in a loss to Indiana - Beck's stats are a far cry from recent Heisman-winning QBs. Meanwhile, Alabama's Ty Simpson looks like the best option following a win over Missouri, and Indiana's Fernando Mendoza is a threat after knocking off the Ducks.
Even with the regular season about halfway through, the Heisman Trophy odds movement is vast from week to week, with no obvious choice for your college football picks.
🚨 Heisman Trophy odds movement after Week 7
- After entering Week 7 as the Heisman Trophy odds favorite, Oregon's Dante Moore has seen his odds lengthen from +700 to +3000 following the Ducks' loss to Indiana
- Thanks to the biggest win in Hoosier football history, Indiana's Fernando Mendoza has seen his Heisman odds move from +1600 to as short as +430 at some of our best college football betting sites
- Alabama's Ty Simpson is now the consensus second-biggest Heisman favorite following a three-touchdown pass performance in a road win over No. 14 Missouri (his odds moved from +800 to +370)
- Returning to the field just 17 days after thumb surgery, Oklahoma's John Mateer struggled in the Sooners' Red River Rivalry loss to Texas, with his Heisman odds plummeting from +3300 to +10000 (Texas' Arch Manning remains a long shot at +17500)
- Ohio State's Julian Sayin and Jeremiah Smith helped the college football national championship odds favorites cruise to a win over Illinois, but Sayin's odds only moved slightly (+1600 to +1500), and Smith's lengthened (+1000 to +1500)
- Although USC's Jayden Maiava led the Trojans to a huge win over No. 15 Michigan, it only cut his Heisman Trophy odds from +3500 to +3000 - he's among the best values on the board right now
- Several Heisman-contending QBs struggled in Week 7 and saw their odds lengthen: Ole Miss' Trinidad Chambliss (+1600 to +2500), Tennessee's Joey Aguilar (+2200 to +4000), Notre Dame's CJ Carr (+2500 to +3000), and Georgia's Gunner Stockton (+2800 to +3000)
- With the Hurricanes on a bye in Week 7, Miami's Carson Beck jumped up the board to the top spot from +800 to +360 following mediocre play from other top Heisman contenders
