I just heard an interesting betting story. I can't say it's true. Baker Mayfield was 1800 to 1 bet to win the Heisman and be #1 NFL pick at the start of 2017 season. One person placed a $100 bet. This year Kyler Murray was a 1700 to 1 to be Heisman winner and #1 NFL pick. Someone placed a bet of $500. Jalen Hurts is 1400 to 1 win Heisman and #1 NFL pick.

That IS interesting, SS...Shall we all pool our pocket change and lay down a Groupie Bet? I read about folks who do that getting lucky, fairly often...
One thing I'll say about Vegas that I know IS True...'What happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas', if we're talking about the $$ I Take, and LEAVE, there...
It would take a freaking miracle for him to win at OU now. Although, I do think he is mega talented enough to win with and win alot. But a Heisman aint gonna happen three years in a row. CFB won't allow this to happen.
A $1,000 bet would yield $1.4 million. Watta say?That IS interesting, SS...Shall we all pool our pocket change and lay down a Groupie Bet? I read about folks who do that getting lucky, fairly often...

I don’t think it happens either, but if he has better numbers than anybody else, he would win it.
$500 @ 1700-1 according to Scotttsdale's OP, not too shabby
There is a doctor at the Mayo Clinic that is an OU grad. He placed a $500 bet in August 2018 that Kyler would win the Heisman and be #1 NFL pick at 1700 to 1. He is almost there.
