Grasshopper is clearly the most likely winner, but I fail to see how he has accomplished enough to make his potential defeat such a gigantic upset.

Don't get me wrong. I'm not against u at all. If I were to bet this race, I'd look to beat him too and because I'm not sold on him, I don't think by any means is he a lock. I just think that on paper, he towers over the field by a huge margin. It's not that he's accomplished so much; it's that his competition has accomplished so little. But he's definitely not unbeatable here.
