I think they are trying to spread the awards out.


Hell look even OSU did it this year. Hawk as we know was the best player on the team, and was voted MVP of the team. But he wasn't named defensive MVP. That award went to Whitner.


I just they're trying to other guys recognition and spread things around.

I'm sorry, I knew it was either Kudla or Whitner. Just got them mixed up.

Here's who won the awards...

MVP: Hawk
Offensive MVP: Smith
Defensive MVP: Kudla
Most Inspirational: Salley*
Academic Excellence: Schnittker
Warrior Award: Schlegel
Top DB: Whitner
Top Special Teams: Huston/Ginn
Top OL: Sims/Mangold
Top WR: Santonio
Top Interior Lineman: Patterson/Pitcock
Top Freshmen: Boone/Jenkins

Michigan Game MVP: Smith

If you look there is two(maybe three) awards that Hawk could have got and maybe should've. The Warrior Award and Defensive MVP he could've won(I don't want to make it sound like the guys that won them don't deserve it, they did). As for the Most Inspirational award, that could've went to Hawk also. But I think Carp would have got it over Hawk, had Salley not won it.

You can see the same reasoning on the awards in where Kudla was the Defensive MVP, but he wasn't voted the top interior lineman.

Again, I think(which I think is a great idea) that they are just trying to spread some love to different players.

thats how you do it for team awards so the same guy doesn't win everything. when you're doing it for all of college football it's run a little differently.
