Ridiculous. Undermines any credibility of the award.

saw Matter tweet on this:
@Dave_Matter 1h1 hour ago
Brothers leads the nation in tackles for a team ranked No. 6 in total defense, No. 3 in scoring defense.
normally I'd make the argument about raw cumulative stats on D not always being that great an indicator, (ie if your offense sucks hard enough, your D will get WAY TOO MANY chances), but in this case, w/ the " No. 3 in scoring defense" factored in, I have to agree, this is a dam disgrace.
Brothers should be on that list and it's really not even close.

Kind of odd that they have two LB's from LSU and they list one as being from "LSU" and then 4 players down they list our other player as being from "Louisiana State University" The award is Ragland's to lose IMO

Brothers got robbed. I figured he would be a certainty. I also thought the Maybin dude from Tenner would be there as well.

I guess it's because the offense sucks so bad it makes him look bad.

Yeah, Ragland is the easy favorite here.

I love Leonard, but the fact that he is on that list over Brothers is absolute crap.

I don't follow Mizz, but every single time I do see a Mizz game this guy's named is called repeatedly the entire game. He is making like every play on defense.

A lot of these awards are more about team than anything else. You win you get rewards, you lose you don't.

Does it really matter? Ragland got this award sewed up! How in the hell did the Bama coaching staff talk him into coming back for his senior year is beyond me.

I post in every Mizzu thread.

yea that's not what the "claim" is among the selection committee..
noting the list includes such football geniuses as:
Tom Dimitroff General Manager Atlanta Falcons
that explains it at least partly.

I swear I thought it was "chemtrail brothers". I figured there was two of them and they were just really fast. I feel so dumb now.

Sure, but he's also playing on a great defense. It's not their fault the offense is garbage.
That being said, you are right but that only goes to show the lack of legitimacy with these types of awards.

Mizz's D is ranked #6 in the NCAA and #2 in the SEC
Pretty good
