Three Big East Quarterbacks and Three Big East Running Backs Named to O'Brien and Walker Award Watch Lists

Whereas linebacker is one of the weaker positions in the Big East, quarterback and running back are two of the stronger positions and it's reflected in the watch lists for the Davey O'Brien (nation's best quarterback) and Doak Walker (nation's best running back) Awards. For the O'Brien Award, West Virginia's Geno Smith, Pittsburgh's Tino Sunseri, and Cincinnati's Zach Collaros were named to the watch list. For the Doak Walker, Louisville's Victor Anderson, Cincinnati's Isaiah Pead, and Pittsburgh's Ray Graham were named to the watch list.
