RG3

Say hello to your odds on favorite to win this year's Heisman Trophy: Robert Griffin III


Griffin has had an amazing year all the way around. He's been remarkably efficient throwing the football with a 72.4% completion percentage. He's also leading the nation with a 192.3 passer efficient rating; that's almost 25 points higher than consensus number one pick Andrew Luck's 167.5. He's sixth in the nation with 3998 passing yards to go along with his 36 touchdowns to only 6 interceptions. Not only is he the nation's most efficient passer, Griffin has also added 644 rushing yards and 9 touchdowns. Pretty impressive.

The most telling sign that RG3 will be taking home the Heisman is the immense change in odds over the last 24 hours. In that span of time, RG3 has gone from +300 to win to an incredible -500! I don't get how something like this can be actively bet on, with so many people having already filled out their ballots. I'm sure there's some sort of insider trading that is probably happening here. Oh well. If you were lucky enough to get a good price on this, then good for you.
