The second year of Bryce Underwood's era at Michigan is flying into focus, and despite being set up for success with the Wolverines, many experts still doubt that he will be one of the top quarterbacks in the country.

Sure, Underwood's 2025 season didn't pan out exactly to plan, but he was a true freshman and still led the Michigan Wolverines to a 9-4 overall record and fourth-place finish in the Big Ten with 2,428 passing yards, 392 rushing yards, and 17 total touchdowns.

Yet, when FanDuel Sportsbook released its initial Heisman Trophy odds for next season, Underwood had to scroll fairly far down the list to find his own name.
