Heisman odds
From Pinny:
101 Troy Smith (Ohio State) +197 102 Brady Quinn (Notre Dame) +302 103 Adrian Peterson (Oklahoma) +466 104 Steve Slaton (West Virginia) +805 105 Mike Hart (Michigan) +1211 106 Chris Leak (Florida) +2026 107 Mario Manningham (Michigan) +2540 108 Chad Henne (Michigan) +4101 109 Marshawn Lynch (California) +5158 110 Kenny Irons (Auburn) +4101 111 John David Booty (USC) +4101 112 Calvin Johnson (Georgia Tech) +6227 113 Garrrett Wolfe (Northern Illinois) +3624 What does everyone think about Garrett Wolfe at +3624 here? Personally, I think he's a steal. He's been getting a ton of media hype lately, and I think if he rushes for 3000 yards, he may just win the award. CFN has him listed as the 2nd most likely player to win the award right now behind Troy Smith. I think a fair line would be somewhere around +1000. I suppose I could just max this bet out, but I don't feel comfortable putting too much into shaky futures markets, so I just took one unit at +4008 which was enough to move it to its current price. |

Re: Heisman odds
I guess maybe if Troy Smith completely falls apart then Wolfe could start to have a shot at it.
But I don't think the voters on both coasts are really going to give it to some MAC RB. Just seems ridiculously unlikely to me but +6000 is a pretty nice price. |

Re: Heisman odds
I think Wolfe need stats to get going... Like jawdropping ones... 2200+ yards and 25TD would be a good way to get noticed.
I think if Smith continues not to run and gets upended before the end of the season. Wolfe looks real good since his numbers are nutso. |

[/ QUOTE ] 1350 and 13 right now, facing Temple, Central Mich, Eastern Mich and Toledo, and Iowa. 5 of his next 6 games are against opponents who allow more than 130 yards per game on the ground. |

Re: Heisman odds
+1800. value's gotta be all gone at this price right? I bet the same on Hellmuth to win his 10th bracelet at the WSOP and that one felt a lot better (even before he won I mean).

Re: Heisman odds
No way someone from ta weakass conf., esepcially with that cream puff schedule, is going to get the votes. He may be a finalists, but he doesn't have a shot in hell of winning.

[/ QUOTE ] Yea Ohio State and Iowa suck. USC schedule last year looked about as hard, and Bush won. Not saying it is exactly the same thing, but the schedule isnt going to be a reason for him not to win. Not enough media hype might be a better reason for him not to win. There was a ton of value at +6000. I will pass at +1800. -SFWUSC http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaaf/teams/nns/schedule |

Lets post some random ones and guess which is which.... 78.37( 8) 73.42( 50) 77.10( 14) 76.40( 20) USC ND LSU Temple Yes, it includes bowl games. Yes, Sagarin has flaws. Creampuff hardly. Pac10 is as underrated as the SEC is overrated. And almost all BCS conferences in terms of Heisman contention are viewed fairly closely. Wolfe from the MAC obviously has the hardest road to go through. |
