Arch Manning's Heisman Trophy chances are now absurdly low following his five-touchdown effort against UTSA
In the No. 2 Longhorns' 56-7 victory, Manning tossed four touchdowns and rushed for another in relief of Quinn Ewers.
Ewers departed the game in the second quarter with what coach Steve Sarkisian described as a strained abdomen and did not return.
Manning, meanwhile, scored a touchdown pass on his opening play of the game and ran 67 yards for another on his third.
There is presently no timetable for Ewers' injury, but it has not deterred bookmakers from purchasing Manning's Heisman futures.
Manning is now the No. 7 favorite at BetMGM, with +1600. Ewers, meanwhile,
was not on the board as of Sunday morning, despite starting Week 3 as the Heisman favorite.
In case you were wondering, Manning was +10000 to win the Heisman before the game started.
Manning's odds shift is an exaggerated reaction to what was essentially a half-game against an overmatched opponent.
Manning entered the game in the second quarter and was replaced by Trey Owens in the fourth, with the Longhorns leading 56-7.
Yes, he had an excellent game. However, even if Ewers misses a large amount of time, his prospects of winning the Heisman are not currently in line with his odds.
