As the 2009 college football season heads into week 14, the final week on the regular season schedule, the previously cloudy Heisman Trophy race is beginning to clear up a little bit. If recently released betting odds are any indication, Texas senior quarterback Colt McCoy has created a little seperation from the rest of the pack. Installed at Sportsbook.com as -300 odds favorite, McCoy has a clear edge over Stanford running-back Toby Gerhart at +150 odds.
Florida quarterback Tim Tebow, who won the Heisman Trophy in 2007 and entered the 2009 season as Heisman favorite, has third best odds at +400.
Alabama tail-back Mark Ingram, who has been number-one much of the season, slipped after suffering an injury in Alabama's game with Auburn last Saturday. Sportsbook has Ingram listed fourth at +1000 odds.
Boise State quarterback Kellen Moore and Houston quarterback Case Keenum, are considered long shots of winning the Heisman Trophy installed at +2500 odds. Clemson tail-back C.J. Spiller is on the list but who's chances are doubtful at +5000 odds.
Several of the contenders have games to play this weekend where they can increase or decrease their chances. Tebow and Ingram will participate in the SEC Championship game, Colt McCoy will lead Texas in the BIG 12 Championship game and Spiller gets another chance to shine in the ACC Championship game. Kellen Moore should pad his numbers when Boise State plays New Mexico State in the schools final game while Case Keenum and his Houston Cougars try to win a conference championship when they play East Carolina in the C-USA Championship Game.
