Oklahoma State racking up awards following Texas A&M win

Are there any quarterback awards that Brandon Weeden did not win after his record-breaking performance in Saturday’s comeback win against Texas A&M?

Here’s the list of honors he’s picked up in the past three days:
Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week
Walter Camp National Player of the Week
Rivals.com National Player of the Week
Davey O’Brien Award National Quarterback of the Week
Manning Award Star of the Week
Nominated for ESPN All-America Player of the Week
Nominated for Capital One Cup Impact Performance of the Week

Of course, Weeden has been putting up big numbers all season. But this is another example of what a sensational performance in a high-profile game can do as far as national notoriety goes. A lot of people clearly took notice of his school records for completions (47), attempts (60) and passing yards (438) and his role in leading the OSU comeback in the second half.

I wrote today that Weeden’s showing on Saturday should officially put him in the conversation as a serious Heisman contender, so that’s where I stand on things.
