[piratebg]

VY won Davey O'Brian award for best QB. First UT QB to do so.

[GreenGobbla]

shouldnt have won it....brady quinns stats were way better and he is a better qb than VY, its just that the irish didnt win as much as the longhorns....that was some bs

[kepdawg]

Hopefully it won't be the last time he beats Leinhart!

Weird...he had the highest QB rating in D1 football. But you are right... Quinn's numbers were better, even with his 2 losses.:rolleyes:

best QB rating does not mean best

Best stats dont mean best either. Lienhart is a better qb than both Vy and Quinn. Vy is dagerous because he can hurt you with both his legs and his arm but i would take a guy who knows how to win like Lienhart over Vy to play qb.

thats true...i was just going by stats....quinn was better according to stats, but leinhart knows how to win games....

You won't be able to say exactly who is the best QB, until they reach the next level. That's when the real studs seperate themselves from the rest. As far as college QBs go, I'd rate them 1) Leinart, 2) Young, 3) Quinn. IMO at the next level Quinn and Young will switch spots.

Did I just hear that on that awards show Mack Brown just signed a $25 mil contract?

[whtfbplaya]

Like I was saying a few weeks ago it is amazing how many players fall through the cracks and how recruiting classes are WAY overrated. Two of the award winners were walkons.

Sad thing is Olsen from UCLA will be better than all 3 of them in the NFL...31 TDs and only 3 Ints on the year and over 3000 yards...that speaks volumes, but he doesn't play for USC, Texas, or Notre Dame so he gets no mention....

Michael Huff won the Jim Thorpe Award.

[piratebg]

Vince Young wins Maxwell award.

[WestTXLonghorn]

See. . .these awards are legit. They are given out by football players who have played and understand the game. The Heisman is a joke that's given out by most sportswriters who've never stepped foot on the field.

Congrats in advance to Reggie for winning The Biggest BS Award on Saturday.

Hope he brings his A game for Jan. 4th, he's gonna need it.

Just because you have the best stats doesn't always mean you should automatically win.


Geez....

If I ain't mistaken Texas ain't lost too many games either since VY been startin. I think he knows how to win too.
