KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee quarterback Joe Milton III has entered the Heisman conversation and has been given top-ten odds by Caesars Sportsbook. The site listed his odds at +1,800, meaning a $100 bet will net a $1,800 payout.
The current betting favorite is reigning Heisman Trophy winner and USC quarterback Caleb Williams at +450 odds, which is overwhelming higher odds than any other current candidate.
Milton saw action in nine games during the 2022 season, including starts in the final regular season game against Vanderbilt as well as in the Orange Bowl against Clemson. In 82 passing attempts as a senior, Milton completed 65% of his passes for 971 yards and 10 touchdowns.
Joe Milton and the Vols begin the 2023 season in Nashville's Nissan Stadium to take on Virginia on Saturday, Sept. 2 with the start time to be determined.
