Baker And Cousins On Maxwell Award Watch List
It's that special time of year when the watch lists for all the major college football awards are released, and once again this summer we begin with the Maxwell Award watch list. The Maxwell Award is given annually to the nation's most outstanding collegiate fooball player by the Maxwell Football Club. Last season the award went to Auburn quarterback Cam Newton.
Who will it go to this season? Your guess is as good as mine, but these are the 66 players you should be looking at now.
