The Payton Award voting was tabulated and the finalists were announced...it looks like I got my top two picks in the final three in Karim and Edwards.

I had Randolph at No. 3, Moses at No. 4 and Nichols at No. 5. So, I got four of the top five with my "homer" pick of Moses (though he is deserving of some recognition) the lone outsider.

The three finalists: Armanti Edwards (Appalachian State), Terrell Hudgins (Elon) and Deji Karim (Southern Illinois). And the tabulations...courtesy of http://64.246.64.33/merge/tsnform.as...spx?id=4270802
