The award still only goes to a Senior, correct?

Nobody on the Burton band wagon?
I agree that Smart has done the most with the least in his time here at CU, and Burney has been a very reliable player, coming back from injury, and switching positions is all impressive.
Burton played alot his freshmen year with some big plays, decent amount his sophomore year, fractured his tibia, then was academically ineligible but practiced hard for the scout team won the Iron Buffalo award for LB, then was a key player last season and earned the starting job this year and the Hale Irwin Award for most improved DB/LB and the Iron Buffalo again for LB.
Add to that juggling his football and school with a wife and 2 kids. Both Marcus and Jeff are very deserving. Both of these guys represent the best of what being a Colorado Buffalo is about.
:yeahthat:I think a case for Burney, Smart or Burton can all be justified. They'd all be worthy of the Buffalo Heart Award
ben burney get's my vote:smile:
