Each week at Action Network we will be monitoring the 2024 Heisman race.

Whose Heisman stock is up and whose Heisman stock is dropping?

Let's take a look at how the odds have changed for college football's most coveted individual trophy. Odds courtesy of BetMGM. For a full list of the odds from various sportsbooks visit here.

Stock Up

Travis Hunter – Colorado – CB/WR

Current odds: +1500

Possibly the biggest leap up the odds board was from Travis Hunter. In a primetime Thursday night clash against North Dakota State, he caught seven passes for 132 yards and three touchdowns. He missed two non-special team snaps in the entire football game and racked up three tackles on defense while NDSU refused to throw to his side. He was +5000 to win the Heisman before the game and he is now +1500 at BetMGM.

Cam Ward – Miami – QB

Current odds: +950

Ward opened the season and his Miami career with a massive win over one of the school's biggest rivals. Ward and the Hurricanes throttled the Florida Gators to a 41-17 victory. Ward threw for 385 yards and three touchdowns in the win. He has gone from +2000 to +950 at BetMGM.

Miller Moss – USC – QB

Current odds: +2200

Nobody created more buzz over the weekend than Miller Moss. In a standalone prime-time spot on Sunday night, Moss threw for 378 yards and a touchdown in a win over LSU. He moved from +4000 to +2200 to win the Heisman at BetMGM.

Stock Down

Garrett Nussmeier – LSU – QB

Current odds: +3000

Nussmeier performed admirably in his first regular season start for the Tigers, seeing as he threw for over 300 yards and two touchdowns. Wins in big-time spots matter when it comes to the Heisman and LSU couldn't get it done against USC. He dropped from +2000 to +3000 to win the Heisman.

Cade Klubnik – Clemson – QB

Current odds: +8000

Klubnik struggled in the season opener against Georgia. He threw for just 142 yards with no touchdowns and an interception. This could be a possible buy-low spot on Klubnik as he is not expected to play against a defense like Georgia's for the rest of the season. He moved from +5000 to +8000 at BetMGM.

Possible Week 2 Movers

Shedeur Sanders – Colorado – QB

Current odds: +2000

Sanders opened the season by throwing for 445 yards and four touchdowns in the season opener. He was able to put up huge numbers last season as well. Now, he has an opportunity in a primetime spot against Nebraska to create some serious buzz.

Quinn Ewers – Texas – QB

Current odds: +1200

Ewers has slid from one of the Heisman favorites to +1200 odds without doing anything wrong. This week he plays in the marquee game against Michigan. A big game could make him the Heisman favorite.

Donovan Edwards – Michigan – RB

Current odds: +8000

Edwards faces Texas in the marquee game of the week. He is one of the few running backs that has a serious shot at winning the Heisman but he will need a big game against Texas.

Nico Iamaleava – Tennessee – QB

Current odds: +1000

Iamaleava has taken the most Heisman bets and accounts for the most money of anyone at BetMGM. He faces his first-ranked team of the season as Tennessee faces North Carolina State this weekend.
