Agreed

Yea, these three picks are interesting, I would have had Christion, Maier (although his stock went down a little bit with me after watching the UNI game) and maybe Stick or Hodges. Sticks numbers don't really merit the award in my opinion, he just wins football games.

Stick at least proves he can throw it when needed against teams that actually play defense .. he clearly passes way way better than Burk, and I would say he runs better too. but like you said, NDSU does not ask him to win games by himself like KSU does .... never mind, were talking about MVFC vs the Big South. So while Stick's numbers don't scream top 3 .. in fact, one might say they barely whisper it ... his running and passing (3rd in QBR behind guys from San Diego and Hampton !!) resume is very strong. Christion is 5th, 4th was guy from Stetson ... I didn't even know Stetson was an FCS program. So let's just agree Stick and Christion are #1 and #2.

Look as hard as you can for Burks ... he didn't even make the NCAA list ... why ? Too few passes.

First of all, this is an Offensive Player award, not a QB award so you have to look at his entire offensive output. He isn't even in the same league as any of the QB's listed for this award but the award is not focused on QB only.

He was 13 but he is a really good player and should have been higher as well.
