PrintThe award goes to the nation's best defensive end.
Dude already won the Nagurski Trophy on Monday, and he's also a finalist for the Lott Trophy.
Congratulations on honors well deserved.
Update: And he won the Lombardi Award as well.

Funny. I always thought the Lombardi was the big one.

The proliferation of individual awards continues, next up the Barking Carnival award for best sense of humor.

Well, he apparently just won the Lombardi as well, so he’s got you covered, exuLt.

Awesome news for Osackpo.
Note to Mack: recruit more Nigerians. Awesome students, workout warriors, team guys.

Congrats. I now see the reason our state capital gets smaller and smaller each year.
Also, good to see Oscar posting on here.

Congrats, Rak.
That’s one of the coolest trophies ever.

Awesome. The College Football Awards show is on tonight, so hopefully I’ll get to see it.
I predict Parcells will use his 1st round pick on Orakpo this NFL Draft.
