With only one more college football game left this season between the No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide and the No. 3 Ohio State Buckeyes, Thursday night was time for the college football awards to be handed out.

On Tuesday night, we saw Alabama wide receiver DeVonta Smith take home the Heisman Trophy, edging a trio of quarterbacks, including this year’s Davey O’Brien Award winner in his Alabama teammate Mac Jones. Tulsa Golden Hurricane linebacker Zaven Collins took home the Bronko Nagurski Trophy and the Chuck Bednarik Award for his excellence on the defensive side of the ball.
