00:03There will be many Heisman Trophy moments this year.

00:06The top five in the odds market here at the Fandula Sportsbook

00:09to win the Heisman, Gabriel Beck, Ewers, Milrow, and Howard.

00:12Now, I'm going to ask you this question.

00:14Are we going to see one of these top flight, top guys run away with it,

00:18or is it the chance that we might see a little bit of a longer shot

00:21be able to take down a Heisman Trophy this year?

00:24I think there are some longer names out there

00:27that really could sort of, you know, again, throw wrenches into the works.

00:31We were talking about Kieran Jones from Virginia Tech,

00:34the dual-threat quarterback before we started the show.

00:36I mean, I love the kid.

00:38I think he's incredibly under the radar right now.

00:40I think Virginia Tech's under the radar right now.

00:42If he puts together an offensive season like I think he can,

00:46he'll insert himself into this conversation at some point.

00:48Not going to crack the top two or three odds just because he's playing at Virginia Tech,

00:52but that's a guy to look out for that I think could upset some things.

00:56You know, where do we look at other guys who are out there?

00:59How much does Will Howard really play into this thing at Ohio State?

01:02I'm not really sure.

01:03You know, yours I think probably would be the guy that I'd look at right now.

01:07The Georgia offense is in a state of transition.

01:09I don't know what they're going to look like the first couple of weeks of the year.

01:12Remember last year, for as good as they were overall,

01:15the first four weeks of the season, the Georgia offense wasn't good.

01:17It was really unimpressive as a matter of fact.

01:19So are they going to go through those same struggles now without Brock Bowers

01:23and Ladd McConkie and everything else?

01:25I think Ewers probably has the most stability

01:27and an offense that sets him up to win this thing is who I would look at the early season.

01:31But there certainly are some other names out there that I think really are worth taking a look at.

01:37And don't forget, guys, about Noah Fafita in Arizona.

01:40He's going to have a full season now, under center.

01:43He was excellent last year.

01:45It's another guy that's going to fly under the radar that no one's thinking about.

01:49But these are eye-popping numbers for Fafita that could really set the world on fire.
