TOMMIE FRAZIER AWARD
The Tommie Frazier Award, named after the great Nebraska quarterback, is given to the quarterback we deem to be the most exciting to watch. This could include any number of factors, but knowing Brent and myself it will come down to a quarterback that is as likely to make the highlight reels with an 80 yard run as he is with an 80 yard pass.
The following six quarterbacks were nominated as finalists for the Frazier Award by J.Pike.
