The brief

Notre Dame quarterback CJ Carr is now the Heisman Trophy betting favorite following his team's 31-24 upset of No. 1 Miami, according to Bleacher Report and One Foot Down. Bleacher Report noted that Carr completed 29-of-40 passes for 319 yards and three touchdowns in the win over Miami. Miami's Darian Mensah completed 24-of-43 passes for 302 yards, three touchdowns and one interception during the matchup.

According to Bleacher Report, an injury that likely ended Ohio State quarterback Julian Sayin's regular season also impacted wide receiver Jeremiah Smith's Heisman Trophy hopes. Smith is no longer the Heisman betting favorite after the Buckeyes lost at USC during their first game without Sayin, per FanDuel Sportsbook. Smith connected with true freshman Luke Fahey for 10 catches and 83 yards with a touchdown Halloween night at USC, and later recorded seven catches for 133 yards and a score against Oregon on Saturday. Bleacher Report stated that Smith has struggled to record more than 100 receiving yards per game since Week 5 of Ohio State's season, making it more likely a quarterback will be favored to win the top honor this winter.

Other contenders saw their betting odds shift after recent games, as reported by Bleacher Report. Utah's Devon Dampier improved his betting odds after No. 3 Utah defeated visiting No. 9 BYU 28-20, while BYU's Bear Bachmeier's chances took a hit. Gunner Stockton's odds rose mightily following No. 10 Ole Miss on Saturday. During that game, Stockton completed 9-of-15 passes for 186 yards and four scores, while Trinidad Chambliss completed 18-of-34 passes for 170 yards and one interception.

Bleacher Report indicated that both Tuesday's update of the College Football Playoff selection committee rankings and the next round of Heisman betting odds could look different as key matchups wrap up.
