Justin Blackmon Wins the 2010 jasathletics.blogspot.com College Football MVP Award

Justin Blackmon is indeed the 2010 jasathletics College Football MVP. I would like to take the time to make one correction. I know I have been calling the award the player of the year award, but I was looking back and last year I called it the College Football MVP award. So that is what we will go with. This is the second year in a row that the jasathletics MVP has come from the Big 12 conference. All of this year's finalists are great football players, but in the end I have to say that I was seduced by Blackmon's big numbers. He finished the regular season with 102 receptions for 1,665 yards receiving and 18 touchdowns. In addition, Blackmon averaged 151.4 receiving yards per game and 16.3 yards per catch. I find the 151.4 receiving yards per game to be particularly astounding. As I mentioned in my last article, I had not even heard of Justin Blackmon until a couple of weeks ago, but once I saw his numbers I knew he had a great chance to win this year's MVP award. And, in the end, I felt that he is the most deserving candidate. Also, my decision was made a little easier when Blackmon won in the poll. So I know that I am not alone. I would like to thank everyone that voted in my poll. It has been awhile since I have put a poll on my blog; mainly because last time I put one on nobody voted on it. I guess I did advertise this poll pretty well though, which, in all likelihood, helped increase the number of votes. In conclusion, I would like to congratulate Justin Blackmon for winning this year's jasathletics College Football MVP award. Blackmon is only a sophomore this year, so I expect to see him make a run at winning back to back MVP awards next year.
