Who IS the Buffs most important player?
This afternoon, David Lombardi and ESPN Pac-12 Blog, who provide good coverage of the conference, ran a piece titled, “Most important player: Colorado Buffaloes.”
Well right off the bat, it did it’s job, I clicked.
First off you see the rules for their most important player pieces:
1. Quarterbacks are ineligible.
2. “Most important” doesn’t equal “best.” (Note: Sometimes the most important player is the best player.) I think we can all agree that a season ago, players like Mike Bercovici and Jerry Neuheisel proved how very important they were to their respective teams.
3. Even if they were the most important, they’re QBs and therefore ineligible (see rule No. 1). Keep up, guys.
