PIC: Oregon QB Dillon Gabriel’s GF shows off glamorous selfie wearing a silver dress ahead of Heisman Trophy ceremony
The Heisman Trophy ceremony is almost here, and Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel isn’t the only one making headlines. Gabriel’s girlfriend, Zo Caswell, turned heads with a glamorous Instagram story posted ahead of the big night in New York.
On Friday, Caswell uploaded a photo featuring the couple posing in front of a beautifully decorated Christmas tree. Dressed in a stunning silver dress, she slayed elegance, while Gabriel looked sharp in a classic black tux. She captioned the story with a simple yet heartfelt note:
“My love @dillongabriel.”
Dillon Gabriel is one of four finalists for this year’s Heisman Trophy, joining Colorado’s Travis Hunter, Boise State’s Ashton Jeanty and Miami’s Cam Ward. While Gabriel posted incredible numbers, 3,558 passing yards and 28 touchdowns, leading the Ducks to a perfect 13-0 season, the odds of him winning the award remain slim compared to Hunter and Jeanty.
Hunter is the clear favorite. He dazzled as a two-way player with 92 catches, 1,152 yards, 14 touchdowns and four interceptions. Meanwhile, Jeanty leads the nation in rushing with 2,497 yards and 29 touchdowns, inching closer to breaking Barry Sanders’ all-time record.
As things stand, Hunter is the runaway Heisman favorite at -2500, with Jeanty trailing at +1000 and Gabriel at a distant +30000 (as per DraftKings). The Heisman Trophy ceremony airs on Saturday at 8 p.m. ET (5 p.m. PT) on ESPN.

Dillon Gabriel gives opinion on Heisman Trophy chances
The Oregon quarterback may be a Heisman Trophy finalist, but he knows the odds aren’t in his favor this year. Appearing on "The Dan Patrick Show," Gabriel revealed his hypothetical pick for college football’s most prestigious award, and it wasn’t the heavy favorite, Travis Hunter. Instead, Gabriel threw his support behind Boise State’s Ashton Jeanty.
“Oh, I’m going to get some heat for this one, but I’m going to say Ashton Jeanty,” Gabriel said. “Me being at the Group of 5 once, I know the challenges that come with that. I played against Ashton this year, and I think he’s a talented individual. His story is unique, and what he’s been able to do is pretty impressive.” [08:00]
Dillon Gabriel went head-to-head with Jeanty earlier in the season. While Dan Lanning’s team was able to edge Boise State by 37-34 with a last-second field goal, Jeanty gave Gabriel and Co. a headache throughout the game, recording 192 yards and three rushing touchdowns and almost pulling off a win.
