Sam Hartman’s odds to win the Heisman Trophy

Sam Hartman's odds to win the Heisman Trophy

The competition for the Heisman Trophy, the most prestigious college football honor, is as fierce as ever this year. For the first time since the start of the season, the Heisman Trophy odds race has a new leader, per the most recent stats.

With a 458-yard, 5-touchdown performance against the Navy, Sam Hartman reaffirmed his status as a Heisman Trophy contender. Moreover, the quarterback threw for 300 yards last season, an achievement that has ranked him top.

Wake Forest has its eyes set on the ACC championship and perhaps even the College Football Playoff despite the Demon Deacons’ weak non-conference slate.

The quarterback still has three crucial league games against NC State, Clemson, and North Carolina. If Wake Forest is able to get through that stretch, Hartman’s Heisman board ranking will soar. 

In 2021, the quarterback helped the team boast an outstanding 11-3 record and reach the ACC championship. With the talent of Hartman and his team members, Wake Forest has high hopes for 2022.
