Heisman moment? Indiana’s Fernando Mendoza now co-favorite

Fernando Mendoza’s “Heisman moment” may have come with his game-winning touchdown pass to Omar Cooper Jr. in Indiana’s last-minute victory over Penn State on Saturday. The dramatic win pulled Mendoza even with Ohio State counterpart Julian Sayin at BetMGM, where the rival Big Ten quarterbacks are the co-Heisman Trophy favorites at +175. Sayin is still the slight +165 favorite at DraftKings ahead of Mendoza at +185. The pair has separated from Alabama’s Ty Simpson and Texas A&M’s Marcel Reed, who have the next shortest odds at both books.
