Not sure about Higgins...he had a helluva year last year, no doubt, but without Grayson in the backfield chucking the rock his direction damn near 50% of the time...as well as everyone in the MWC knowing him and playing him now...I wouldn't bet on him being O POY.

I had this same thought, but then I figured the media chose the safe guy for POY honors. The only other name on the list that deserves POY consideration in keeton, and he's about as healthy as that cat I ran over in my car last night... Maybe wick or Hill with a big breakout year while Higgins can't get a ball thrown his way and keeton tears his acl week 2??

I still can't believe Jay Ajayi had the 5th best season of any RB in the history of college football and still lost to Grayson for OPOY lol. The Rams will miss that dude, more than they want to admit.

Quick detour: my gawd Ram fans are annoying. One solid season and now everyone is "disrespecting us" if you don't predict them to go 12-0. I hope a lot of teams, including Wyoming, shut this fan base the fuck up.
