The Heisman Trophy five finalists have been announced and odds are now posted at Sportsbook.com.  The event will take place this Saturday at 8 pm EST on ESPN.

The last time as many as five players were invited to New York was 2004, when USC quarterback Matt Leinart won the award.

Florida quarterback Tim Tebow became the first player to be invited to the Heisman Trophy presentation ceremony three times.  He was a long shot, however, with +1500 odds.

Mark Ingram, who rushed for 1,542 yards and scored 15 touchdowns for Alabama, was the favorite at -350 odds.

Colt McCoy was the runner-up last season to Oklahoma's Sam Bradford and has led Texas to the BCS national championship game this season.  He was listed to win at +125 odds, which would pay out $125 for every $100 bet or $12.25 for every $10 bet.

Ndamukong Suh came in at +500 odds and Toby Gerhart was listed at +300.
