...despite having 500 passing yards more than JT, led the Big Ten in passing efficiency (10 points higher than Barrett), and more total yards.

This conference is such a pathetic joke....
Look at their performance against equal competition (i.e. Conference games)

McS is head and shoulders above EVERYONE in B1G........and Barrett is middle of the pack - probably not top 5
 
Have they named All Big Ten tight end? Expect it to go to Butt despite Gesicki having 100 more yards receiving.
 
Probably put a great amount of weight on JT having 6 more total TD's. JT had 7 TD's against the almighty Bowling Green.
 
They seem to go exclusively by history with these crazy awards. I'd still take McSorley over any other college QB.... respect is earned and and he has earned my respect regardless of some "award".

Surprised he wasn't an also-ran what with that popgun arm and not wearing the scarlet & gray... or the a-maize-ing and blue.

The Indiana QB was better than Barrett - Trace was better than all of them - funny to see OSU and UM getting all the awards as if we have no good players or anyone else in the conference - typical.

This is what gives a chip on the shoulder. The team is full of unselfish good kids and this just gives them all the more reason to crush it on the field. Don't need all these awards to make a great team.

I also think this is just a good sign that PSU has come on from out of nowhere. They are still not trusted to keep this going (outside of our fan base). But wait and see, they are setup to romp for years to come!

Why do the conferences use ALL games to decide the All-Conference awards? I know, rhetorical question.
But as was pointed out, the o$u QB scores several TD's against BG which means nothing in conference play.
I just think it is a dumb process.

OL
 
My position is unchanged. McSorley shouldn't be starting, and Franklin is on the hot seat.

;)
The thing about sports is you never know. Look at the Cowboys QB position. We could be in the same situation - maybe even better - if Trace lost the job to Stevens. I'm obviously happy w/ the decision at this point though.

"Process"?

LMAO

There is no "process"......never was

These are silly beauty contests - generally judged by blind people :)

They pick who they want - - - and then, if they feel like it, maybe they try to find some "rationale" to jabber-jaw about.


It is what it is
 
Barrett is a warrior. I'm ok with it
"Warriors" don't shrink up like a nut-sack in an ice bath in most of their big games.

"Warrior"? You've been listening to Kirky Herbstreit too much - - - and thinking he's not a complete buffoon and a shill

Barrett seemed not quite himself this year. Maybe it's nagging injuries, a young OL and loss of a lot of talent on the offensive side. I think he was gracious in defeat at the Beav. Maybe it was a career achievement award thing.
I would bet Trace is more concerned with winning games than awards.

Hey, he lugs the tomato several times a game and delivers. Mac would be my choice as well, but im not going to get all bothered about it.
 
To recap the events of the evening of October 23, 2016 in Happy Valley, let's set the stage:

Undefeated Ohio State suddenly trails by 3 points to upstart PSU after a blocked FG is returned for a TD
But there's more than 4 minutes to go, and they have all their timeouts
They're 89 yards away
A Touchdown will win, a FG will tie and they have a good kicker
It's the All-Conference QB at the helm in the clutch

Results -- 10 plays, 12 yards total, turned over on downs
The All-Conference QB fails to run or pass effectively
Game over

Maybe that's the fluke Herbstreit was talking about

Seems to me the entire offense hasn't been the same since Tom Herman left...

Ditto the NW QB. He had a better year than Barrett also.
