The votes are in and counted, and college football has handed out its most prestigious individual honor: the 2024 Heisman Trophy goes to ...

Colorado wide receiver and defensive back Travis Hunter was named the Heisman Trophy award winner for the 2024 season, becoming the 90th player to receive the sport’s greatest award.

And he became the first-ever two-way player to win the Heisman Trophy since Michigan star Charles Woodson made that history in 1997.

Here’s your look at the full Heisman Trophy vote for the 2024 season, according to the Heisman Trust.

-

Winner: Travis Hunter

Colorado wide receiver, defensive back

What he did: 92 catches for 1,152 yards, 14 touchdowns, 81 tackles, 24 pass defenses, 4 interceptions, 1 forced fumble

Few players in college football have received more of a national spotlight, and none were more deserving, as Hunter quickly emerged as the most gifted athlete in the country, logging full-time snaps on offense and defense and proving himself a game-changer on both sides of the field.

If the interception total seems low, it’s only a tribute to Hunter’s coverage ability, as opposing teams simply stopped targeting him, effectively surrendering that portion of the field to him.

Offensively, he finished with the second-most touchdown catches among Power Four receivers, all while playing by far the most snaps of any player in the country.

2. Ashton Jeanty

Boise State tailback

What he did: 344 carries for 2,497 yards, averaging 7.3 yards per carry, for 29 rush touchdowns

Jeanty chased history all season long, and nearly caught it, finishing fourth all-time in total single-season rushing yards, placing fifth all-time with 2,613 scrimmage yards, and is ninth with 30 scrimmage touchdowns in a single season in NCAA history.

-

3. Dillon Gabriel

Oregon quarterback

What he did: 297 of 406 (73.2%) passing for 3,558 yards, 28 touchdowns, 6 interceptions

Gabriel ranks second nationally in completion percentage, fifth in completions, seventh in passer rating, seventh in total touchdowns, and 10thh in passing yards per game.

And in the process, he broke the NCAA all-time record for total touchdowns (187), currently ranks second with 18,423 career passing yards, and with 19,675 total yards, moving just 2 TD passes away from breaking the career TD passing record currently held by Case Keenum.

-

4. Cam Ward

Miami quarterback

What he did: 293 for 435 (67.4%) passing for 4,123 yards, 36 touchdowns, 7 interceptions

Arizona State tailback

What he did: 263 carries for 1,568 yards, averaging 6.0 yards per carry, for 19 touchdowns

Skattebo eclipsed 100 yards rushing in seven games this season and at least 199 scrimmage yards in seven contests, emerging as the engine behind the Sun Devils’ offense, scoring in all but two games, becoming the first ASU player to go over 2,000 total yards in a season.

-

6. Bryson Daily

Army quarterback

What he did: 45 of 78 (57.7%) passing for 877 yards, 8 touchdowns, 1 interception; 264 rushes for 1,480 yards, 5.6 yard per carry average, 29 rush touchdowns

Army’s quarterback ranks No. 9 nationally among all players in rushing yardage, and by far the most among quarterbacks, while sitting fourth with 134.5 yards per game, tying Jeanty for the most touchdowns on the ground.

-

7. Tyler Warren

Penn State tight end

What he did: 88 catches for 1,062 yards, 6 touchdowns; 23 rushes for 191 yards, 8.3 yards per carry, 4 rush touchdowns

Penn State’s do-everything player on offense, Warren set school and Big Ten single-season records for receptions and yards by a tight end, posting 16 grabs of 20-plus yards and 3 rushes of 20-plus yards while going over 100 receiving yards in four games.

The play that defined Warren’s season came in a dramatic overtime win at USC, when he lined up at center, snapping the ball to a backup quarterback, and then catching his 32-yard touchdown pass.

-

8. Shedeur Sanders

Colorado quarterback

What he did: 337 for 454 (74.2%) passing for 3,926 yards, 35 touchdowns, 8 interceptions

Sanders basically was the Buffaloes’ offense, which ranked dead last in rushing nationally, leading FBS in completion percentage, and top-five in completions per game, passing touchdowns, passing yards per game, and overall pass efficiency.

Moreover, he was the only quarterback to achieve that kind of domination in the last decade since Joe Burrow and C.J. Stroud, and has thrown a touchdown in 48 straight games, the longest streak of any quarterback in NCAA Division I history.

-

9. Kurtis Rourke

Indiana quarterback

What he did: 202 for 287 (70.4%) passing for 2,827 yards with 27 touchdowns and 4 interceptions

The ex-Ohio quarterback made an immediate impact with the Hoosiers as a transfer, engineering an offense that was top 30 nationally in passing output and 2nd in FBS by averaging more than 43 points per game, enough for IU to make the College Football Playoff.

-

10. Kyle McCord

Syracuse quarterback

What he did: 367 for 558 (66.1%) passing for 4,326 yards with 29 touchdowns and 12 interceptions

McCord didn’t waste any time establishing a place for himself at Syracuse after transferring in from Ohio State, setting single-season school passing records in yardage, completions, attempts, and passing touchdowns, and his yardage total was tops nationally.
