A tradition unlike any other except maybe the People's Choice Awards and the Nickelodeon one where people get oozed, the NUGie awards are back for the fourth year to recognize excellence in Boise State football. The NUGies count on your votes to help decide the winners, so put your judgy hat on and join me after the jump for this year's ballot. Go Broncos! Go NUGies!
Voting closes first thing Thursday morning, and the results will post soon after. Get your votes in early. I don't want to have pay the intern overtime.

Aw, this means it's really over, doesn't it?
It went so fast this year. Here’s to whipping Sparty and everybody else next fall!

We still have the Senior Bowl.
We can hear how short , slow, and no arm strength Kellen posses. Then when the game comes he can make all the naysayers eat there words by being the surgeon that he is.

I think Kellen is gaining some traction...
with Drew Brees comparisons, Brees’ latest records, Barkley staying, etc. It will be just like its always been for him – proving it at the next level. Fortunately, he has the work ethic, talent, smarts and attitude to make it not that difficult. Frankly, I hope some team grabs him, adds a couple really good O linemen (like Nate) and decides that they don’t need a running back and a QB in one body. There has never been a pocket passer with the kind of success he has had in CFB. So let it be in the pro’s.

I just hope he gets picked up by a team that needs him rather than someone who is going to make him ride the bench forever then cut him.
Don’t the Seahawks need a QB?

I want him to go to the Seahawks too...
But I also feel like Kellen needs a year at least to understudy and get aquanted to the speed and style of NFL football. I would hate to see Kellen flail as Alex Smith did by getting thrown right in and not having the experience of studying the game. Maybe the Seahawks should hire Brett Favre and Joe Montana and let Kellen understudy….
So this Irishman walks out of the bar....No really, he walked out...
If Andy Dalton can make an impact year one
Kellen can too. The biggest problem with rookie qb’s is they panic and make mistakes. Kellen doesn’t panic or make mistakes.

i don't care so much for the first or rookie year.
i care about the long term. i’m thinking more Aaron Rodgers, not Sam Bradford (or Andy Dalton). sure, it would be nice to say he had an impact the first year but i’d settle for a superbowl ring his third year starting.
My QB has an AWARD named after him. How about yours?!

Study time
Kellen attended the ’07 Fiesta Bowl and had already learned the BSU playbook and was predicting the plays consistently. Not sure if he really needs time to learn a system as he could draw one up better than most ACs in the NFL.
I am all for the Seahawks too.

Humble thanks...
…for using my picture at the head of this column. I think I look quite dashing in my black silk mawashi, don’t you?

Do you mind if I ask where you bought your hair clasp?
I’ve been looking for just such a clasp for Ever.

I custom make them just for him
OMG! I love it!. A cottage industry in the Blorange house.
MrsBlorange, you make lovely hair jewelery.
Can I special order one? My Mother used to have what she called “a rat” that was made of human hair and gave her do the ooomph her French twist needed. May I request an orange and blue beaded French Twist clasp with pre-woven Dolly Parton hair?
You two make quite the pair. I don’t suppose you sumo, too? didn’t think so. I don’t either. Mud wrestling might be sorta fun, though.
Don’t be a stranger…post often! :)

Man I hate this team, but Kellen would be great learning from Tom Brady.
New England would be a great fit.

Best Fan Award
It wouldn’t be hard to figure out who I voted for in that category. You should hear the friendly arguments he has with his best friend who is a TCU fan. Stephen’s loyalty will never waver!
Shouldn't that be Blue Elvii?

The best thing about that picture is the reflection of their faces in the trophy.
The battle for hierarchy is more intense the lower the class.
