The quarterback with two career college starts continues to get more respect than the guy who led all of FBS in total touchdowns last season.
BetMGM recently released updated Heisman Trophy odds for the 2025 college football season, and Texas quarterback Arch Manning had the best odds at +600 after opening at +900. Meanwhile, Oklahoma QB John Mateer's odds stayed steady at +2500 as the 14th-best odds. Plenty of names in front of Mateer make sense, but Manning leading the way has been head-scratching all offseason.
