It's official, Travis Hunter of the University of Colorado is the 2024 Heisman Memorial Trophy winner. College Football's leading dual-threat player grabbed the trophy over Boise State running back and college football's leading rusher, Ashton Jeanty. RELATED: Multiple awards go to Heisman finalist Ashton Jeanty Throughout the 2024 college football season, Jeanty led the league in rushing yards (2,497) and touchdowns (29), all while leading his team to the Mountain West Conference Championship and a #3-seed in the College Football Playoff.
