The past 4 years the Heisman Trophy winner was a player that was not even considered before the start of the season. Cam Newton, RGIII, Johnny Manziel and Jameis Winston were all under the radar before the start of their respective seasons. The odds may favor Jameis Winston this year but that would be a suckers bet. Each year a new star emerges to capture the nations attention and woo the Heisman voters. Handicapping Police has put together an infographic of 4 underdogs that have the potential of making some bettors big money with long odds.

2014 Heisman Trophy Underdogs: Odds for Dark Horse Heisman Hopefuls
- 1. 2014 Heisman Trophy Underdogs Coker transfered to Alabama from FS U. Coker sat behind 2013 Heisman winner Jameis Winston. S aban may have been handed a gift with Coker and he could turn into one of the top QB's in the country, Coker lands at a football powerhouse and will be tutored by a football coaching legend. The ball is in Cokers court. After a year suspension, Golson is back at ND. In his FR year he helped lead the Irish to the National Championship. He now is older and more mature from learning from his mistakes and watching from the sidelines. Don't be surprised to Golson lead the Irish to another successful season and Heisman consideration.

- 2. Taylor Kelly had a solid JR year and the AS U offense will put up a lot of points. It may be tough for some people to pass up this bet at 50-1 odds. Melvin Gordon may have the best shot of all the underdog Heisman candidates. Gordon rushed for over 1,600 yards last year and with a little luck and good health he could rush for over 2,000 in 2014. Gordon seems to be good value when betting underdogs. 3% to Win Handicapping Police Prediction 12% to Win Handicapping Police Predecition ChancesChances Time to Wake Up Eye Spy Jameis Winston is NOT a LockThe past 4 Heisman winners were not even a thought at the start of the season. Each year we are enamored by a fresh face and this is what makes NCAAF so great. Expect the 2014 Heisman winner to be a star that has yet been determined. Eye spy a QB will win. S ince 2000 only 2 running backs have won (Reggie Bush and Mark Ingrim). It's safe to assume another QB will win this year since the ball is in their hands more often than any other player. Jameis Winston is a suckers bet at 3- 1 odds (+325). Only Archie Griffin has won back-to-back Heismans which means the odds are not favoring Winston. He will once again put up big numbers but playing 2 sports is tough enough and FS U has a tougher schedule in 2014. Two sports = less practice time on the football field.
