Outland Trophy Watch list
Brian Daniels, of Evergreen, is mentioned on the 2006 Outland Trophy Watch list.
An announcement will be on Dec. 7 in Orlando, Fla., on the ESPN Home Depot College Football Awards Show. The Outland Trophy presentation banquet, sponsored by the Greater Omaha Sports Committee and First Data Corporation, is set for Jan. 11, 2007, in Omaha, Neb.
Daniels is a University of Colorado starting tight side guard, he received some preseason mention for top honors as he should be one of the Big 12 Conference's top offensive linemen.
Street & Smith's tabbed him as an honorable mention All-American, while CBS Sportsline.com and Huskers Illustrated selected him a preseason first-team all-conference performer (Athlon's and Lindy's earmarked him a second-team choice).
The Sporting News ranked him as the No. 12 offensive guard nationally. He had a great spring and received the Joe Romig Award as the outstanding offensive lineman as selected by the coaches. The anchor of the Colorado offensive line, he brings a 22-game starting streak into his junior season.
