Mid Season Awards

For my money we are close enough to the midpoint of the college football season to hand out some awards. Here are those awards.

Biggest Surprise (The Sax isn’t yet deep throating the SEC Award):
Miami Hurricanes.
They started the season with FSU, GT, VT and Oklahoma. In early August you would have been hard pressed to find anyone who thought they’d be 3-1 after those 4 games. But 4-1 they are and they are sitting around #11 with a down ACC slate ahead of them. A one loss Miami season is not out of the question. Well, until I wrote that.

Biggest Disappointment (The DPS/Sad But True/SilverSS Memorial Award):
Florida State.
The defense is subpar and they almost lost at home to Jacksonville State. People within FSU are stating they think it is time for the old man to step down and poor Bobby is still never going to catch JoePa.
Honorable Mention: Cal, Georgia

Mid-season Heisman: Jimmy Clausen.

Mid Season Heisman “Not Yours”: Jevan Snead. This guy was supposed to compete with Tebow, Bradford and McCoy? Laughable.
Honorable mention: Jahvid Best.

Most overrated team: Ole Miss.
Honorable mention(s): Cal, Georgia

Best game: Miami @ FSU
Honorable mention(s): Bama/VT, CMU/MSU, ND/Michigan

Worst Game: Florida @ LSU. For all the hype a snooze fest.

Person who should be banned from LS2 football threads: Sad But True. You should quit just like your football team did.

Best Defensive Player: Eric Berry.
HM: Suh (Nebraska)

Top Upset: Washington over USC

Coach of the Year: Nick Saban/ Randy Shannon.

Worst Coach: The Fat Man. It is time for Maryland to move on.

Biggest Win: Iowa @ PSU. Iowa put that game away and shut down PSU after the first quarter. Iowa was in desperate need of a huge win for years and they got it. Now they are knocking at the door of the top 10.

Can’t believe he hasn’t been fired: Ron Zook. The man can recruit, so we are told but he can not coach to save his life.

Most bummed fan base award (Old School Assblossom Award): Ole Miss.

BCS Bowl Matchups (IMO) if the season was over today:
NC: UF v. Texas
Rose: USC v. Iowa
Sugar: Alabama v. Cincy
Orange: VT v. Boise St.
Fiesta: Ohio State v. Miami
