Florida State's Christian Ponder up for the Wuerffel Award
Can a Florida State Seminole actually win an award named after one of the all-time best Florida Gators?
Well, this year that can happen. FSU quarterback is among the nominees for the Wuerffel Award, named for former Gator quarterback Danny Wuerffel, who of course won the 1996 Heisman Trophy and then led his team to its first national title by beating FSU in a rematch of the team's regular-season showdown. The Wuerffel Award goes to the Division I-A player based on his work off the field in the community, in the class room and on the field. Here's the release with all the nominees.
Finalists will announced on Nov. 11 and the winner on Dec. 8.
