A look at how the top Heisman Trophy contenders, including two-way CU Buffs star Travis Hunter, played on Saturday: Travis Hunter, Colorado Odds entering Saturday: -125 Numbers vs. Utah: 5 catches, 55 yards (plus 5 rushing), 1 TD; 3 tackles, 1 INT, 1 pass defended Note: The odds-on favorite to claim the Heisman Trophy only bolstered his chances Saturday, including an incredible highlight-reel grab in CU’s 49-24 dismantling of the Utes at Folsom Field. Dillon Gabriel, Oregon Odds entering Saturday: +375 Numbers at Wisconsin: Completed 22 of 31 throws for 218 yards with one interception Note: Dillon currently holds the record for most career touchdowns, passing Case Keenum’s mark of 178 last week at Maryland. So, naturally, he put up exactly zero touchdowns in a ho-hum performance Saturday as the Badgers defense kept him in check. Ashton Jeanty, Boise State Odds entering Saturday: +450 Numbers at San Jose State: Rushed for159 yards and three touchdowns Note: Conventional wisdom says Jeanty won’t win the Heisman because he plays at a Group of 5 school. The last person to pull that off was Navy’s Roger Staubach in 1963. But Jeanty entered Saturday with 1,734 yards on the season. Cam Ward, Miami Odds entering Saturday: +850 Related Articles College Sports | CU Buffs defense suffocates Utah’s run game, tallies four takeaways in another impressive performance College Sports | Keeler: CU Buffs’ Travis Hunter, college football’s Nikola Jokic, planted Heisman Trophy flag on Utah’s backside College Sports | CU Buffs vs. Utah Utes quick hits: Deion Sanders’ Buffs on beeline for College Football Playoff College Sports | CU Buffs thump Utah behind more Travis Hunter magic to move one step closer to Big 12 title game College Sports | CU Buffs vs. Utah football: How to watch, storylines and staff predictions Miami did not play this week.

Shedeur Sanders, Colorado Odds entering Saturday: +5000 Numbers against Utah: 30-of-41 passing for 340 yards, 3 TDs, 1 INT Note: Sanders remains a longshot, but he’s making a case for himself.
