Watch the first-ever Piesman Trophy award show
Posted by Susannah Collins on Friday, December 11, 2015
There were 63 different plays under consideration. At the end, only one player has the distinct honor to win SB Nation’s first Piesman Trophy.
After careful deliberation, Michigan State's Jack Allen, Southeastern Louisiana's Ashton Henderson, and Miami's Ufomba Kamalu were selected as the three finalists for the inaugural award.
The Piesman Trophy honors linemen who go above and beyond their duties and astonish college football fans with receptions, jukes, tackles, and anything else one can think of. Throughout the 2015 season, we have monitored with gifs, videos, and possibly science to identify the best candidate.
In order to accurately determine who would be worthy of the prestigious Piesman Trophy, we at SB Nation even had a midseason ballot, with Baylor's LaQuan McGowan dominating our top 5. The three Piesman Trophy finalists have graced college football fans with 300-pound stellar performances nearly every college football Saturday.
Congratulations to all three, and congratulations to all college linemen performing non-lineman feats.
