The odds shifted more in Daniels’s favor after his 8-touchdown performance in a 56-14 win over Georgia State on Saturday in Tiger Stadium.

Jayden Daniels has one game left to impress the Heisman Trophy voters, vs. Texas A&M next Saturday.

Bo Nix and Oregon host Oregon State this Friday on FOX 8 at 7:30 pm. If the Ducks win that game, they’ll play Washington in the PAC-12 title game. So Nix could have two games left.

Heisman finalists will be announced on Monday, Dec. 4.
