Can Dillon Gabriel win the 2024 Heisman Trophy?

The 2024 Heisman Trophy is given to the best individual player in college football and for the last few years, that has gone to quarterbacks. With the dominance that Jeanty has played with for the Boise State Broncos, it is difficult to argue with him holding the top spot.

However, if Dillon Gabriel can go undefeated in the regular season and continue his performances, it won't be difficult for him to surpass Jeanty's odds. The plus for Gabriel is that he is playing tougher competition with a Big Ten schedule compared to a Group of Five conference. Gabriel should be able to put up these numbers throughout the season and stay in the running for the award.
