Two good QBs and it looks like they scrambled to fill out the 5.

That's the tough thing about having an award that's limited just to seniors in one position.

Interesting list. At the beginning of the year I think Chase was considered a shoe-in for the award. I wonder if he'll still finish ahead of Graham. Chase's performance over his career has been amazing, but Missouri just isn't very strong this year. That will hurt him.

I was suprised that there was John Parker Wilson of Alabama or David Johnson of Tulsa on the list... Even thought it's limited to Senior QB's, it's still a nice accomplishment for Brian Johnson. Especially this year when his performance has been criticized often as inconsistent.

My wife said it perfectly with: I have a love/hate relationship with him.

I love Brian for 60-75% of the games and he makes me want to pull my hair out for the other parts. No question, he is a winner...but man, he does so much when he is on, you realize he could be a dominating winner.

He's just more metro than you, so it's not hate, but jealousy.

I'm opposite, thirty-five percent of the time, he's just perfect but at the end of games, I just hate him.
