It’s hard to say what Miami would be this season without the talent and heroics of quarterback Cam Ward.
The Hurricanes are currently in the mix for the ACC championship and a potential playoff berth; without Ward, they might be irrelevant in BetMGM’s various NCAA football odds markets.
That added value has – alongside some impressive overall stats – have made Ward one of the likely finalists in the 2024 Heisman Trophy contest.
As a successful, experienced quarterback at a prominent program that’s in the mix for the CFP, Ward matches the description of the kind of modern player who typically wins the Heisman. If you’re in the predictions game, he’s definitely one of the safer choices.
Here’s a rundown of what you need to know for Cam Ward’s Heisman chances. You can also check out my longer Heisman odds & analysis piece, which covers the whole market in greater detail.

Cam Ward Heisman Prediction
I am predicting that Cam Ward will not win the Heisman.
While Ward would be an excellent bet in most seasons, I think this year’s field has two elite college talents, both of whom are doing extraordinary, historic things. As good as Ward has been, he’s not quite in that category.
Cam Ward is merely a great college quarterback. At the end of the season, I believe voters will choose Ashton Jeanty or Travis Hunter.
