Brackett Selected as MVP

Somehow, Penn State co-captain Brett Brackett  has been named the Most Valuable Player of the 2010 Nittany Lion football team.

Brackett was presented the Outstanding Senior Player Award to highlight the State College Quarterback Club’s annual banquet honoring the Nittany Lion football team. A crowd of nearly 1,000 packed the main ballroom at the Penn Stater Conference Center Hotel to honor 18 seniors and the 2010 squad.

I cannot comprehend this odd selection, but then again, it has been a pretty odd season all around.

Royster broke the school rushing record. Why not him?

Wisniewski was the only reliable offensive lineman and an academic standout. Why not him?

Ogbu was a captain, too. What about him?

As I said, weird season. Weird selection of captains. Weird selection of MVP. Let’s put this whole damn thing behind us!
