Heisman Trophy Betting Trends Show Importance of Team Success
14 Heisman Trophy winners since 2000 played in the National Championship game, including three of the last five winners. With Georgia expected to be the top team in the country in the 2024-2025 season, some GA sportsbooks favor Carson Beck’s odds to win the Heisman Trophy.

Gabriel, Ewers, Milroe, and Dart all fit the requirement for a national-contending team as their squads all project to be in the top 10. Another Heisman trophy betting trend to consider before betting at legal college football betting sites is the player’s year, as 69% of Heisman winners were seniors.
Although two of the last three winners, Caleb Williams and Bryce Young, were sophomores, they’re two of just six sophomores to win the award all-time. Juniors have won the award 20 times, but only seven times since 2000.
Utilizing that trend, junior quarterbacks like Jalen Milroe, Quinn Ewers, and Shedeur Sanders can be crossed off the list. Although Texas sports betting sites are high on Ewers to win the Heisman, he also has a lengthy injury history with his throwing shoulder.
Betting on experienced, senior quarterbacks on National Championship contenders makes Dillon Gabriel (+500), Carson Beck (+750) and Jaxson Dart (+1000) the best bets to win the 2024 Heisman Trophy.
