Trevin Wallace has carried high expectations on his broad shoulders for two years. Entering year three, he’s ready to deliver.
The former blue chip Kentucky linebacker is on the Butkus Award Watch List. Wallace is one of 51 players nominated for the award that is given annually to the top linebacker in college football. The 51 nominations are a salute to the No. 51 Butkus wore during his Hall of Fame career.
The award semifinalists are expected to be named Oct. 30 with finalists to follow Nov. 20. The winner will be named on or before Dec.
