Florida football’s star quarterback Anthony Richardson dazzled the nation last weekend as he put up a Tim Tebow-esque performance in the Swamp to open the 2022 season. Traditionally, the Gators have faced a cupcake team to start the schedule, but this year they opened up against a Utah Utes who were ranked in the top 10 as well as the reigning Pac-12 champs coming into Gainesville.
The redshirt sophomore’s performance electrified the crowd in Ben Hill Griffin Stadium while also profoundly affecting both the national media’s and the bookmakers’ outlook on the talented student-athlete. Among those was our betting partner, the Tipico Sportsbook, which has Richarson among the leaders in the betting odds for the storied Heisman Trophy after Week 1.
Take a look below at the top nine candidates for the Heisman Trophy this season and their odds, according to the Tipico Sportsbook at the time of publication.
