We’re getting into the season where many of the annual college football awards are starting to cull their lists down. We’ve already gotten good news on the Ohio State front with the Bronco Nagurski and Walter Camp Awards, and now we’ve got some from the folks at Southern Methodist University that hand out the Doak Walker Award.
The semifinalists for the award that goes to the best college running back annually were announced Thursday, and Buckeye running back J.K. Dobbins was among the ten names that made the cut.
Looking ahead, three finalists will be announced on December 2, with the winner being announced during the Home Depot College Football Awards Show on ESPN Thursday, December 12.
Dobbins, a native of LaGrange, Texas was also announced as one of eleven semifinalists for the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award that goes to the best college football player from the state of Texas.
It has been a fantastic year for Ohio State, and the individual accolades that multiple players are still alive for only buoy that fact.
