The watch lists for the major college football awards keep rolling in, and another BYU Football player finds himself on the radar.
On Tuesday, the Charlotte Touchdown Club released the Bronko Nagurski Trophy watch list, and Cougar defensive lineman Corbin Kaufusi is among the 97 candidates.
That’s a huge list, since the Nagurski Trophy is given to the best defensive player in the country, regardless of position. Kaufusi is one of 24 defensive ends named by the Charlotte Touchdown Club.
The watch list will be whittled down to five finalists late in the season, and the winner of the trophy is voted on by members of the Football Writers Association of America.
