2010 Heisman Trophy Odds Kellen Moore 10 to 1 Odds to Win: Kellen Moore may be the least likely Heisman candidate in the history of the award, but given his performance on the football field and Boise State's record with the slightly built junior under center (26-1), he deserves to be taken seriously as contender for the trophy. Sportsbook.com is certainly giving the Washington native his due; the online bookmaker currently has Moore listed at 10 to 1 odds to win college football's most coveted honor in its 2010 Heisman Trophy Odds.
Boise State put together a perfect 14-0 record last season, which ended with a 17-10 victory over third ranked TCU in the
Fiesta Bowl. Perhaps no player on the team was more responsible for the Broncos unblemished record than quarterback Kellen Moore. Moore led the offense by throwing for 3536 yards (10th in the nation) and 39 touchdowns (second in the nation) while tossing just three interceptions.
Moore, the son of high school coach, finished the season with a 161.65 passer rating, a number which ranked third nationally. The Prosser native's on the field performance resulted in an offense that churned out 42.2 points and 450 yards per game.
Boise State enters this season ranked third in the AP Poll and expectations are high as 20 starters from last season's undefeated squad return. However, it is Moore, who finished seventh in last season's Heisman voting, that has many convinced the Broncos can garner their third perfect season in the last five years.
Despite the much deserved buzz surrounding Moore's upcoming junior campaign, the unassuming field general is ignoring it all, including the Heisman talk, which he calls "kind of goofy."
"You put the shades on and close off all the noise," Moore said, "and take care of what you need to take care of."
