According to the oddsmakers, there won't be a lot of suspense when the Heisman Trophy winner is announced on Saturday, Dec. 13. Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza is the overwhelming favorite with FanDuel Sportsbook setting his odds at -2000. The only other player in the conversation based on betting odds is Vanderbilt quarterback Diego Pavia at +900.

After those two, it's Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love at a distant +40000. So barring something crazy, it will likely be Mendoza hoisting the 2025 Heisman Trophy this Saturday.

Here is one final breakdown of the top two candidates.
