Heisman ceremony: Where is the Heisman ceremony in 2023?
The 2023 Heisman Trophy will be awarded at a ceremony in New York City on Saturday night. And one of LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels, Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr., Oregon quarterback Bo Nix, or Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. will head home with the sport’s most prestigious honor.

Daniels is the betting favorite to be named college football’s most outstanding player after a stellar second season with the Tigers. The senior quarterback tied with Nix for the most passing touchdowns in the nation (40) and ranked third in passing yards (3,812) — all while boasting a 72.2 completion percentage and throwing just four picks. Daniels also rushed for 1,134 yards, which was the most of any quarterback, and 10 scores as No. 13 LSU went 9-3.
Penix, meanwhile, made a compelling Heisman case by helping No. 3 Washington become the first Pac-12 team ever to enter bowl season at a perfect 13-0 mark.
