Cash out now. You can always place another $1,000 on him at given odds and still secure a huge profit.

Jalen Hurts has already faced his toughest defense, Burrow hasn't. Burrow can help his stock but if he loses to Bama or Auburn or the SEC championship game he'll lose to Jalen or Fields.

Statistics say the weaker your strength of schedule the more likely you win the Heisman. Great bet get that cash now.

Letting it ride you risk Burrow getting hurt or losing the Heisman to Hurts.

Honestly I’d cash out before the Auburn game their Dline is good and could hurt Burrow, we all know AU plays dirty anyways

Damn. Now I’m hoping he wins just so you get paid, and I’m a Bama fan!

You'd potentially make more money if you'd had the confidence to bet Burrow before Tua's injury, when he was favored to win.

I would.

Collect roughly 38% of your original potential winning bet now. It is an investment gain of $3815... a 7630% return on investment.

Given the uncertainties of injuries, bad games, and Hurts as a very strong competitor due to his dual threat numbers, impact on the team, likability, and story... I think it is a no brainer. I'd cash out before the possibility of Burrow tweaking a knee at practice

Wow! Those are awesome odds. Just as a point of reference, I took Burrow +125 at Caesars last night just because if nothing else, I have a ticket showing those close odds for an LSU QB...which I never thought I’d see in my lifetime. Not sure I’ll cash it even if he wins.

Not with half their DL starters out.

He did. He didn't get those odds last week.

definitely. Even now, it's a risky bet. Injury, a bad performance vs. Bama, Hurt or someone else goes nuts...the list of reasons he doesn't win it is still longer than the list of reasons he does.

A bird in the hand...

Something happens this weekend and that would drop drastically.

Absolutely.

Crazy to let it ride against Auburn and Bama.

Take the money.
