BP Awards: The Kern-Krenzel (Best Quarterback)

[LordJeffBuck]

Last year, Southern Cal's Matt Leinart won the Heisman Trophy; this year, he wasn't even the best quarterback in the country, at least according to the BP pollsters. Those honors go to Texas QB Vince Young, who led his team to a perfect regular season and a Big XII championship. Congratulations, Vince, for winning the prestigious Kern-Krenzel Award as the nation's best quarterback!

Like the eponomous quarterbacks of the award, he is likely to lead his team to a national title.

I don't think enough love was given to Michael Robinson personally. I think he is one of the primary reasons that Penn St. is #3 in the country this year, and are a last second loss from being undefeated. Quinn is very talented, but he also plays in a great system.....ala Leinart.

All 4 QBs that were ahead of him had AMAZING seasons, I can't see how you could put Robinson ahead of any of thsoe guys...except MAYBE Olson.
