JIMMY Awards Week 16




College JIMMYS - End of the Year

With the College regular season over, here are the performers of the Year.

Offense

Colt McCoy, Texas QB

McCoy made up for a sophomore slump with a Runner-Up Heisman Trophy season. McCoy threw 375 times and connected 291 times for a national single season record of 77.6 completion percentage. He also struck for 3,445 yards and 32 touchdowns with only 7 interceptions. To add to the 2008 legend that was Colt McCoy he led his team in rushing with 576 yards and 10TDs.


Sam Bradford, Oklahoma QB

Bradford is the fifth Heisman Trophy winner in OU history. Here is why, 48 touchdowns only 6 picks. 186.2 QB rating and 68% completion percentage. He also showed up big in the Texas, Texas Tech, and OSU game which solidified his Heisman Trophy.













Graham Harrell

The first Texas Tech QB to make a splash in the NFL, mark my words. Harrell was snubbed by not being invited to the Heisman Trophy ceremony, but not by 6Magazine. We would have invited you Graham. I mean, you only tossed the pill 568 times for 406 completions, 71.5% completion rate, 4,747 yards, and 41TDs.












Michael Crabtree, Texas Tech WR

Did anyone know he played QB in high school? With that said, can we say raw? Crabtree, only a sophomore hauled in 93 balls for 1,135 yards and 18TDs. Again I stress to you, if you are a blue chip wideout please attend Texas Tech University.

Donald Brown, UCONN RB

Mr. Brown quietly led the nation in rushing with 1,822 yards. He touched the endzone 17 times and avearged 5.39 yards per carry. His best move all season, was when he put a spin move on the NFL and declared he would return to the Huskies.

DEFENSE

Brian Orakpo, Texas DE

Orakpo won the Nagurski Trophy and the Big 12 Defensive Player of the year and deservedly so. He finished the season with 10.5 sacks, 15.5 tfl, and 4 forced fumbles.

James, Laurinaitis, Ohio State LB

The WWF kid is far from fake, but he does put on a show everytime he touches the field. 121 tackles, 5.5 sacks, 4 tackles for loss, 2 picks, 1 forced fumble, and 1 fumble recovery.

Rey Maualuga, USC LB

Big, long hair, tattoos, speed, instincts and intensisity. He backs it up on the field, and this year he had 73 tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, 2 interceptions, 3 forced fumbles, and 1 fumble recovery.

Rashad Johnson, Alabama FS

If you heard this kid was a walk-on would you believe me? I wouldn't believe me either but its true. Don't worry he is now heavily scholarship'd up now and soon to be paid up as well thanks to his stellar play this season. How does 82 tackles, 5 tackles for loss, 1 sack, 5 picks, 11 pass breakups, 1 forced fumble, 1 fumble recovered, and countless instances of leadership sound?

FRESHMAN OFFENSE

Russell Wilson, NC State QB

I originally wanted to award Baylor QB Robert Griffin III, but after some research, Wilson is my man. Why, first freshman in ACC history to be named 1st-team ACC. 20 touchdowns and only one pick. He threw for a school record 226 attempts without an interception. Didn't Phillip Rivers go to NC State? Oh yah, Wilson also moonlights as a starting centerfielder for baseball team.

Jaquizz Rodgers, Oregon State RB

True freshman ladies and gentleman. The little man at 5'6" 180 pounds was nothing more than a 3-star recruit coming out of high school in Texas last year. He stole the nation's heart when he led Oregon State to upset USC this past year. He lead the Pac-10 in rushing with 1,253 yards and scored 12 touchdowns.

FRESHMAN DEFENSE

Travis Lewis, Oklahoma WLB

The future of OU's defense lies in this man's grasps, shoulders, hips, however he hits you. Lewis led the team with 137 tackles. He also had 12 tackles for loss, 3.5 sacks and four interceptions which netted him a spot on the All-Big 12 Second team.

Janoris Jenkins, Florida CB

This true freshman is the truth. Maybe not has ball hungry as Dre Bly was as a freshman but certainly equally adepth in coverage. Don't believe me, go watch the Alabama game again. Remember, numbers dont lie, 14 passes defended and 3 interceptions on the year.

NFL WEEK 15 JIMMYS

Andre Johnson, Texans WR

Can someone give the best wide receiver in Texas some love. I mean 11 grabs for 207 yards and TD sounds like he needs much kudos.

Shaun Ellis, Jets DE

The big fella had 11 tackles and recovered a fumble and returned it for the game winning touchdown.

Univ. Minnesota-Duluth FCS National Champs



The University of Minnesota-Duluth (UMD) defeated Northwest Missouri State (21-14) for the Division II National Championship this past Saturday. This is a small miracle considering that UMD posted a 4-6 record last year. Furthermore, the Northern Sun intercollegiate conference in which UMD is a member is an “un-funded” conference. Members of “un-funded” conferences in Division II only have 24 scholarships for their football teams, not the Division II standard 36 to work with. Head Coach Bob Nielson Led the Bulldogs to a perfect 15-0 record and a national championship with just 24 total scholarships. This is the equivalent of winning the Iditarod with a team of Yorkies. You may ask yourself “Why is this important?” Well the football giants of the FBS (Division 1) have 85 scholarships and each FCS schools (formerly Division I-AA) 63 athletic scholarships. In division, 2 there are 36 Scholarships and in UMD’s case 24. UMD won the national championship with 24 scholarships against the other 149 division 2 colleges that play football.

As for Northwest Missouri State, they are the proverbial Buffalo Bills of college football having lost the last 4 FCS National Championships. What makes the heartbreak harder to “bear” for the Bearcats is that they lost all four title games by a combined total of just 19 points. The Bearcats, led by head coach Mel Tjeerdsma, fell to Grand Valley State twice, Valdosta State once and UMD this past Saturday, in the four title games. You really do have to respect a program that is essentially 4 games away from being the best dynasty on any level of college football. Nebraska and Tom Osborne has a great run in the mid-90’s winning three out of four years with the great Tommie Frazier teams. NMSU if it would have completed that feat would have easily surpassed that mark set by those great Cornhusker teams. Northwest Missouri also is a member of the MIAA is a fully-funded league that is very tough and has sent a member to the national title game 10 out of the last 18 years.

Northwest Missouri (13-1) has won two national championships, but the last three years have delivered heartbreak. One last thing to take into account is that Division II has a playoff system so making it to four straight title games is an impressive feat.
I guess I did not realize just how hard it must be to run a program with just 36 or 24 scholarships and compete for championships. I have a new found respect for teams on the Division II level not realizing that they do more with less. Congratulations to UMD for winning the National Title.

SINCERELY, KARATE KLAYBORNE
