YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) — Eastern Michigan University redshirt senior Brogan Roback (Maumee, Ohio-Toledo St. John's Jesuit) has been named to the Manning Award Watch List, awarded to the top college quarterback after bowl games, the Allstate Sugar Bowl announced Wednesday, Aug. 16.
Roback is one of just 30 QBs named to the exclusive watch list. This nomination is his second preseason recognition after being named Second Team Preseason All-Mid-American Conference by Athlon Sports. He is also no stranger to the Manning Award, after he was named one of its Stars of the Week last season following a 347 yard and three-touchdown performance in the 27-20 win over Ohio.
