UH's Brennan on O'Brien quarterback award watch list

Advertiser Staff

University of Hawai'i's Colt Brennan is one of 35 players who were named to the Davey O'Brien National Quarterback Award watch list yesterday.

Brennan, a senior, also is on the Maxwell and Manning award watch lists.

Brennan last year was one of three finalist for the O'Brien award, which went to Ohio State's Troy Smith.

The O'Brien watch list is based on All-America teams and honorable mentions published in at least six different preseason college football magazines. A candidate must be listed as an All-America quarterback or as a first or second team All-American within his conference in at least one publication or as honorable mention in at least three publications.

The winner will be announced Dec. 6 on The Home Depot College Football Awards Show and honored Feb. 18, 2008, at the Annual Davey O'Brien Awards Dinner at The Fort Worth Club in Fort Worth, Texas.
