Darman

@ucla But I had a strong safety play outside linebacker for Duke in the past and it went alright. Was running a 4-3 set with him there. I feel like defense is generally better to run someone at their off position than offense though. But it is always due to necessity for me

We did release what the awards represent in another article. But it can be linked in here

Honestly it's something that was in the original document that I forgot to edit when I submitted the article. I can update it when I get home from work

He's definitely a candidate for the Bingo.

The disturbing rumors surrounding the coach made it impossible to nominate his player

The players and coaches on this list have been noted for their excellence in and off the field. There were tough cuts on this list, and the possibility exists that a new candidate may emerge for these awards as the season finishes.

Feels like TMac might be one game away from the Heisman now

Miami has had a better season than it seemed they would have after the first half of the season. The ACC after Duke and Clemson has been weird this year

This is amazing

Wow

There may be more awards added after bowl season, but these are the core awards

If you have any players or coaches you'd like to nominate to win this award, you can place them below

Every year in College Football, we celebrate those that have accomplished great things during the season. This year, for the first time ever, the Bad Online Football Amateurs will be presenting our own awards. The announcement of awards will come in three stages. The first stage is today, where we will present the names of the awards, and what they represent. The second stage, will be the revelation of the shortlist for each award. Finally, the third stage will be the awarding of these awards. Here at BOFA, we have decided to name the awards after former players, and the legendary coaches that have graced College Football. Unlike other awards though, we want our awards to reflect the changes in the sport and the new legends that get created. For the first iteration of the BOFA Awards, only players who had their “qualified” season in 2018 and earlier will have their name as a trophy. Essentially, this means that a transfer who had a magnificient season in 2018 would be eligible to have the award named after them even if they played in 2019 later, and a player who played their first game in 2019 could not have the trophy named after them this year. However, after each year of College Football, BOFA will reevaluate the trophy names to see if they should be updated to allow for someone in the next class (2019) to possibly be on the trophy. With that being said, here are the awards: Coach of the Year Awards TheUgly National Coach of the Year Award - This trophy is awarded to the coach who has been judged by our panel as the best coach in both the FBS and FCS in the current season. The Randye FBS Coach of the Year Award - This trophy is awarded to the coach who has been judged by our panel as the best coach in the FBS during the current season. The Kirk Carter FCS Coach of the Year Award - This trophy is awarded to the coach who has been judged by our panel as the best coach in the FCS during the current season. The Jieret Group of 5 Coach of the Year Award - This trophy is awarded to the coach who has been judged by our panel as the best coach in the G5 during the current season. The Bingo Nonplayoff Team Coach of the Year Award - This trophy is awarded to the coach who has been judged by our panel as the best coach in the FBS during the current season that did not make the CFBHC playoffs. Other Coach Awards The UBL Coach Citizen of the Year Award - This trophy is awarded to the coach who displays qualities that positively impacts our community. This involves excellence in media production, community assistance, and other things that may not be able to be quantified. The Imposter Causter New Member of the Year Award - This trophy is awarded to the coach who has had the greatest and most positive impact on this community in the 2022 season. Unlike other awards, this one can have multiple winners. The DangerZoneh Recruiter of the Year Award - This award is awarded to the coach that shows excellence in recruiting in the most recent season. Not necessarily the coach with the number one class, this award will take into account location and the relative recruiting strength of each team. Player Awards The Brian Brown Award - The Brian Brown award is awarded to the National Player of the Year, as voted by the BOFA panel The RJ Stanford Award - The RJ Stanford Award is awarded to the Offensive Player of the Year The Tyrone Jones Award - The Tyrone Jones Award is awarded to the Defensive Player of the Year The Jarius Shaw-Dodd Award - The Jarius Shaw-Dodd Award is awarded to the Offensive Freshman of the Year The Philip Moore Award - The Philip Moore Award is awarded to the Defensive Freshman of the Year The De'Andre Hawkins Award - The De'Andre Hawkins Award is awarded to the Transfer Player of the Year in his first year at his new school The Matty Swift Award - Quarterback of the Year The Trace Buchanan Award - Running Back of the Year The Jeremy Scarborough Award - Wide Receiver of the Year The Danny Patrick Trophy - Tight End of the Year The Goode Guys Award - The Team Offensive Line of the Year The Tyler Jones Award - The Defensive Lineman of the Year The Brian Hernandez Trophy - The Linebacker of the Year The Mike Gradishar Award - The Defensive Back of the Year The Rodrick Braxton Award - The Defensive Playmaker of the Year The shortlist for these awards will be announced in the upcoming weeks, and the winners will be announced after the Bowl games are over.

Great piece as always. Hopefully you're wrong on the Duke Clemson ACC final, but I have to get there first for it to even matter

The LSU Auburn game is a game I had on my watch list for deciding the Heisman and Marcus Black put on a show for sure
