Michigan center Olu Oluwatimi was a double winner on Thursday, earning the Outland Trophy as the top interior lineman in the country and the Rimington Trophy awarded to the nation’s top center.
Oluwatimi, a 6-foot-3, 307-pound graduate transfer from Virginia, has anchored Michigan’s offensive line this season and helped the Wolverines to a 13-0 record and the No. 2 seed in the four-team College Football Playoff.
The Outland is selected by the All-America Committee of the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA) from three finalists that also included Pitt defensive tackle Calijah Kancey and Northwestern offensive tackle Peter Skoronski.
