2016 Heisman Trophy: Ranking The Finalists’ Chances to Win
By Jason Parker
The 2016 Heisman Trophy will be handed out Saturday night to one of five finalists – and we break down who has the best chance to bring it home.
Later this evening, one of the five top players in college football this season (well, four and a wide receiver from Oklahoma who took Dalvin Cook’s spot) will hear their name called as the 82nd winner of the Heisman Trophy as the top player in the sport this season.
While there has been one odds on favorite for much of the season (thanks in large part to his showing against the Seminoles), nothing is for sure until a name is called – just ask Peyton Manning in 1997 or Marshall Faulk in 1992 or even Larry Fitzgerald in 2003.
With that being said, lets take a look at what realistic chances each of the five finalists have of bringing home the most coveted individual trophy in all of college football.
