Stanford quarterback Andrew Luck is the odds-on favorite to win the Heisman in 2011 but it is who is third on this list that has this college football fan excited.
Luck’s chances are gauged at a 9/2 according to the gambling website Bodog.com. Oklahoma quarterback Landry Jones is next at 13/2, followed South Carolina running back Marcus Lattimore at 7/1 and Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson and Oregon running back LaMichael James at 15/2 to round out the latest “Top Five.”
As a South Carolina fan, got to love reading this and knowing that Lattimore is thought so highly of and the football is getting respect. Been a long time since USC has received so much off-season hype. Now they must live up to it and Lattimore is prepared to deliver.
