Quinn Ewers Heisman Odds
Ewers threw for 350 yards and three touchdowns on Saturday in Ann Arbor, silencing the 100,000+ fans dressed in Maize. It was loud early on, leading to a few false start penalties on the first drive, but Ewers settled down the offense and repeatedly found his open man. Ewers threw a touchdown pass in each of the first three quarters, and the Longhorns built an insurmountable lead against the defending champions.
The Longhorns' veteran quarterback has unfinished business after coming up short against Washington in last year's College Football Playoff semifinal, and is on a revenge tour to get over the hump this time around. Texas appears to be clicking in all three phases through the first two weeks of the season, even though there is a lot of football left to be played.
As a result of the victory, Ewers catapulted up to +600 in the latest Heisman trophy odds, flying ahead of Dillon Gabriel, Cam Ward, and Jaxson Dart, all of whom were tied for the lead at +850 this morning. Of course, they will take the field tonight and can boost their own stock, but none are playing anywhere close to the opponent level that Ewers faced.
This win will go a long way for his Heisman campaign, because delivering a nearly flawless performance in a game of that magnitude on the road at the Big House carries serious weight. Assuming the Longhorns continue to pick up big wins with Ewers under center and a star-studded defense that forced several turnovers today, you can expect to see the Texas QB squarely in the running for the Heisman trophy all year.
Texas has two tune-up games against UTSA and Louisiana Monroe, where Quinn Ewers will likely look to pad his stats and boost his campaign. Keep an eye on the Longhorns as they get ready for their first ever SEC game against Mississippi State at the end of this month.
