Good point! My guess is that since only two teams play in


Nov 30, 2011, 1:56 PM

the championship game, they consider that part of the "year". Pretty lame though, because you have to figure that the POY would typically come from one of the two teams in the championship game so one would think those championship game results should figure into the equation.

Because it's a regular season award. It's always been done

Now that right there is funny. I get it that Boyd was not in the running, but there is not a better player in this conference than Sammie Watkins. What a travesty!!!

Right you are so maybe Sammy and out team can use that as


Nov 30, 2011, 1:58 PM

ammunition to fire us up. One can only hope.

POY award, because THE CLEMSON TIGERS ARE ACC CHAMPS!!!"

Sammy and Boyd lost it the last three weeks. Sammy hasn't

done that much the last month.

Wilson clearly deserves it. He led is team to an 11-1 season and is in the top 5.

They have an OL. Sammie has done his, pretty much in spite of a crappy OL to help give him time to get open. Not saying the VT guy isn't good, but he is no Sammie Watkins, and he never will be.

Wilson gets as many yards on his own as any RB in

country.

After he gets through the hole in the line. He is not a 1 man show, nor is anybody else, but you can think he is the best if you want to. You are not alone in your view. VT already was a good team, however, and Sammie has been the biggest difference maker for us this year, and no other player in our league has taken their team from a losing season to the Championship game.

Dec 1, 2011, 9:09 AM [ in reply to Sammy and Boyd lost it the last three weeks. Sammy hasn't ]

Think what you wish. He had a great OL to run behind, and he had a Defense that let him get on the field a lot, too. Sammy has been hurt for the last couple of weeks, but the guy from VT is good. He is no Sammy Watkins, however, and this was a travesty.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-10yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Hard to argue against Wilson


Nov 30, 2011, 2:11 PM

He's been dominant this year and VT is 11-1 and ranked in the top 5. Watkins, while exceptional, is only a Freshman and didn't put up the same numbers as Wilson. Still, though, if we're playing sand lot football, I'm picking Watkins for my team before Wilson 100% of the time.
