Jenkins, Laurinaitis On Lott Trophy Watch List
Newport Beach, Ca. ? Ohio State linebacker James Laurinaitis and cornerback Malcolm Jenkins are among 42 of the nation?s top collegiate defensive players who have been named to the 2008 Lott Trophy Watch List, it was announced today.
Laurinaitis, a 6-3, 240-pound senior from Hamel, Mn., has already won the Nagurski Award as a sophomore and the Butkus Award as a junior. Jenkins, a 6-1, 208-pound senior from Piscataway, N.J., was an All-American selection last year.
There are seven repeat nominees for the award, including Laurinaitis, a finalist last year. The other players nominated for a second straight year are Jonathan Casillas of Wisconsin, Maurice Crum, Jr. of Notre Dame, Brian Cushing of USC, Zack Follett of Cal, Nic Harris of Oklahoma and Darryl Richard of Georgia Tech.
Thirty-five different schools are represented on the Watch List.
Named after Hall of Famer Ronnie Lott, The Lott Trophy is awarded to college football?s Defensive IMPACT Player of the Year. Now in its fourth year, The Lott Trophy is the first college football award to equally recognize athletic performance and the personal character attributes of the player.

Am I mistaken or do the Bucks have a major candidate for every major award. Laurinaitis, Jenkins, Boone, Wells, and if Boeckman has very good year it's not like the O'Brien is spoken for.

Boone, Rehring On Outland Trophy Watch List
DALLAS (FWAA) The Football Writers Association of America has released its 2008 Outland Trophy Watch List, which includes two linemen from its 2007 All-America Team : Arkansas center Jonathan Luigs and West Virginia offensive tackle Ryan Stanchek. Seventy standout linemen from around the country have been nominated for consideration in the preseason.
The Outland Trophy has been awarded to the best interior lineman in college football since 1946. With input from the entire FWAA membership, the winner is selected by the FWAA's All-America Committee, which selects the association's 25-man All-America team and picks the three Outland Trophy finalists and the winner.
The 2008 Outland Trophy announcement will be on Dec. 11 in Orlando, Fla., on the ESPNU Home Depot College Football Awards Show. Three finalists will appear on the show. The Outland Trophy presentation banquet, sponsored by the Greater Omaha Sports Committee, will be on Jan. 15, 2008 in Omaha, Neb.

Alex Boone has a GREAT shot at winning the Outland Trophy. I also look for James Laurinaitis and Brandon Spikes to battle it out for the Lombardi and Lott Trophy.
