Georgia Bulldogs quarterback Gunner Stockton finished the 2025 regular season seventh in the Heisman Trophy voting, three spots shy of being a finalist.
Stockton's 2025 performance included 2,894 passing yards and 24 touchdowns against five interceptions. He also contributed significantly on the ground, accumulating 462 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns.
Despite potential for limited playing time in games against weaker opponents like Western Kentucky, Stockton's efficiency and scoring ability in his available snaps will be crucial. His dual-threat capability, including substantial rushing totals, could further bolster his Heisman candidacy.
Stockton has numerous opportunities for national exposure in 2026, with three marquee matchups against Oklahoma, Ole Miss, and Alabama, alongside rivalry games and a potential SEC Championship run. Other contenders like Darian Mensah and Arch Manning will also be making their case for the award.
