DALLAS (FWAA) – The FWAA has announced the 2004 Outland Trophy
Watch List for college football's top linemen.
The Outland Trophy annually is presented to the top interior lineman
in college football on either side of the ball – tackles, centers, guards
– in a vote of the FWAA All-America Team Committee in late November.
Presented since 1946, the Outland Trophy is the third oldest award in
college football behind the Heisman Trophy and Maxwell Award. It is named
after the late John Outland, an All-America lineman at the University of
Pennsylvania at the turn of the century.
Last season's Outland Trophy winner, offensive tackle Robert Gallery
of Iowa, was selected by the Oakland Raiders as the No. 2 pick of the NFL
draft. Gallery was the third Iowa player to win the Outland Trophy.
The 2004 Outland Trophy winner will be announced on Dec. 9 on the ESPN
College Football Awards Show from Orlando, Fla. The Outland Trophy will
be presented to the winner by the Omaha Sports Committee on Jan. 13 at a
banquet in Omaha, Neb.
Below is the Outland Trophy Watch List, which includes the only returning
2003 FWAA All-America lineman, Alex Barron of Florida State.
