Et tu, Dave Southorn?
BSU beat writer chooses Darth Kaepernick as his WAC preseason OPOY. I guess it would have appeared too homerish to have the Broncos sweep all Southorn's preseason awards.

I at least give him credit for using a little bit of humor.
If he was worried about being a homer he could have gone with Kellen and snubbed Wilson. I think Wilson is the best defensive player in the league and is a big reason the Broncos’ 4-2-5 works, but when was the last time a CB won player of the year in any conference? Hard to get the glamour sack stats and since they don’t throw your way, won’t rack up the tackles either.
Even with 7 INT’s and a bucketfull of pass break-ups, the media would overlook him and vote for a LB or lineman with 10 sacks and 70+ tackles. Not unlike the media oogling over Kaep’s rushing yards while disregarding completion percentage and win totals.
"...he could have run for 500 yards if only the end zone hadn't kept getting in the way"
