We won Offensive Player of Year, Coach of Year, and Game of the Year from HD's blog. Surprised we did not win Surprise of Year, but BC is not that bad a selection.

Offensive MVP
Georgia Tech B-back Jonathan Dwyer: He led the ACC with 110.7 rushing yards per game, but would have succeeded in any offense. He rushed for at least 100 yards nine times, and is tied for second in the ACC with nine touchdowns. He had 128 yards and two touchdowns in the first HALF of a critical Coastal Division win over Miami. Dwyer ran for 144 yards and two touchdowns in a 45-42 win over rival Georgia.

Coach of the year
Georgia Tech's Paul Johnson: Not only does his offense "work" in the ACC, it beats the SEC, too. Johnson enters the Chick-fil-A Bowl against LSU with a 2-0 record against the SEC, including the league's most impressive nonconference win, as he beat rival Georgia. His nine wins were the most by a first-year coach at Georgia Tech. He did it with an entirely new offense, a new defensive coordinator, injuries to 11 starters, and without the maximum 85 scholarships.
Game of the year
Georgia Tech 31, Florida State 28 -- This game came down to the final minute, when FSU's Marcus Sims fumbled in the end zone, ending the Noles' four-game winning streak and their chances at what Bobby Bowden said would have been one of the best comeback wins of his career. It was Georgia Tech's first win over Florida State since 1975, and the Yellow Jackets ended a 12-game losing streak to FSU.
 
Nice blog but what has she done about that five-head?

(just to get it out of the way, now we can talk about the blog)
 
I don't know about you guys, but have you noticed that HD is having a complete love fest with GT? I love it, because the Hokie fans are hating it! :)
 
I must say I'm surprised with Jags at BC. I thought he would flounder in college football mongolia after Ryan left, but he's done pretty well after his team lost a lot last year.
