This week, Hooker’s Tennessee Volunteers face off with the Georgia Bulldogs, in a battle for SEC supremacy, and likely the rank of number one in the nation.

Hooker  is fresh off of a blowout win over the Kentucky Wildcats in the wake of a victory over the Alabama Crimson Tide.

The switch between Hooker and Stroud has been remarkable. Stroud was sitting at +100 to win the Heisman, put up 354 yards and a touchdown to help his Ohio State Buckeyes beat the Penn State Nittany Lions, and still saw his odds drop.

Why? Because Hooker put up three touchdowns in the air and another one on the ground as his Volunteers dominated the Kentucky Wildcats.

Stroud is still tied for the most touchdown passes in college football, with 29 to Hooker’s 21, but the potential for Hooker to beat both Alabama and Georgia seem too tantalizing to pass up.

One major issue for Hooker’s potential to win the Heisman – his Vols are 8.5-point underdogs to the Bulldogs on Saturday.
