Thank goodness you made sure to include the corporate sponsor in your thread title. 

Chuba deserves it, so it'll probably go to Dobbins.

Chris Fowler just said LSU, Florida, Oklahoma, Ohio State are the only schools that can claim DBU... 😡 Bullshit.

Blankenship went 1/3 inside a dome during the SEC Championship, missed a 42-yard FG in overtime to give South Carolina the win... and somehow won the Lou Groza award as the nation's best placekicker. Wow.

 

I gave up completely after I saw Minkah Fitzpatrick. He always sucked, knew he would suck in the NFL, and it was complete fucking bullshit that he got the Thorpe with jack shit for stats.
 

I really don’t even understand what drives the obviously bad decisions for the winners.

Jesus.

Are they going to work that into their marketing somehow?  "We've got your HR and online payment management solutions covered like a shutdown corner."

There was no SEC finalist so it was actually decided objectively

When is the Big-12 2nd team All-Academic awards show?

Hoping to see some Longhorn players recognized. 
 

Herman hopefully stayed home last night vs attending the show. It was great this morning seeing the bulk of Burrow’s great throw examples coming vs UT’s shitty pass D

Well I hate to break it to you but you were wrong then, at least so far.  I completely agree with you that it was a joke that he won the Thorpe that year when Deshon Elliot was better in almost every statistical category.  Buttt Pittsburgh's defense completely turned around when they traded for Fitzpatrick.  After a quick Google search....through his 1st 10 games with the Steelers, Minkah Fitzpatrick had "five picks, he's recovered two fumbles, forced a fumble, knocked down nine passes, and scored two touchdowns (a pick-six and a fumble recovery score)". He has 5th best odds for AFC defensive player of the year right now.

 

Deshon should have won it though.  

I don't even know why I fucking care anymore. The only stats Taylor had on Chuba was .1 in YPC, and a some receiving TDs. And Taylor had an extra game. If the award requires that your team be a CCG participant, put it in the fucking criteria.

And I complained about it already, but Chuba's best game was 296 against KSU, which nobody saw because it was on ESPN+, which I understand was glitchy anyway. Fucking Big 12 money grab, FUCK YOU!!

How did you find that stat? I can't find it, but I'm curious to see where Etienne is. I seem to remember him feasting after contact.

I got this from cowboysrideforfree.com, it says the stat is from pro football focus. I visited the site but can't find an easy way to find individual college stats.

If you consider the national perception of Big 12 defenses (which is viewed as a spread passing conference), compared to the perception of the defenses Taylor faced (plus the BS that previous seasons affect bias) is this that much of a surprise?

Yes, I was still genuinely surprised. That's on me, I guess.

They really should correct for how good an O-line you have with these awards.

Taylor had a much better O-line to run behind than Hubbard. Derrick Henry had a much better O-line than Christian McCaffrey. Mark Ingram had a much better O-line than Toby Gerhart. Sam Bradford had a much better O-line than Colt McCoy. And so on, and so forth.

Man, if you can't Hero at a HS football game then what's this world coming to?

To be fair, Big 12 Officiating deserves a guy like this holding them accountable.

Get on it Bowlsby!
