Who are the top Heisman Trophy candidates in the Big Ten?

The Big Ten will once again be one of, if not the most competitive conference in all of college football this season. While Georgia is the favorite to win the national championship this season, multiple Big Ten teams will contend to be the last team standing.

However, no individual player within the conference has top-10 odds to win the Heisman Trophy at DraftKings Sportsbook. In fact, it’s been 17 years since a Big Ten player won the award, dating back to 2006 when Ohio State’s Troy Smith earned the honor.

Of the 85 players available at DraftKings to wager a Heisman future on, 18 play in the Big Ten, second only to the SEC’s 24.
