From Larry Brown Sports:

“[Bovada] listed Arch Manning as a co-favorite to win the coveted award, along with Notre Dame quarterback CJ Carr. The two have 8/1 odds to win the award, which is the best odds of any player in the country. Here is the full list of odds (only players with odds of 25/1 or better are included). … Manning passed for 3,163 yards, 26 touchdowns and 7 interceptions for the Texas Longhorns last season. He also rushed for 399 yards and 10 touchdowns. His potential as a dual-threat quarterback should allow him to rack up the stats needed to contend for the award.”

Are the expectations for Manning fair?
