Vote for Denard for 2011 Top B1G Individual Performance
There are 5 performances to choose from and Denard is nominated for 2 (kind of cannibalizes his votes) and Sparty's Cousins currently leads:

personally, i think it's Ball. But Denard did his job tho. thumb up

All Denard love should be going to the OSU game, not ND. He was as flawless as can be in The Game, in both phases. Against Notre Dame he threw three picks and made his receivers catch a lot of tough balls.

What the hell is up with Sparty on the internet lately? These freaks came out in full force to help give Cousins that stupid LOWE's award for football, currently have Doughboy Draymond leading for the same award in basketball, have put their team at the top of ridiculous "Fan Polls," etc.
Is this a new development? I always thought we had the better infrastructure to get the word out.

I think we need to focus our votes on Notre Dame. Not only was it an amazing comeback but it is already ahead of Ohio State.

It was an spectacular set of circumstances and an all-around miracle of a fourth quarter, but it was not won because Denard was spectacular. The man himself said "WHAT?!?!" at the huge yardage total because he probably knew he didn't play all that well.
The Ohio State game WAS WON BY DENARD ROBINSON. Period. All four quarters, he brought it. His passing accuracy and decision-making in the read option game were just out of this world.

His performance against Notre Dame was more exciting, but way less finessed. His win over OSU was really, really well done.

Kork Coupons was disappointed when he logged on to vote for the Denard couch-sitting play, but couldn't find it on the page. Something about "playing eleven other games" or some new age idea like that.

If Denard's only spot was the OSU game he would win in a landslide.
January 31st, 2012 at 8:08 PM ^
It is internet bullshit that they have him on twice.
January 31st, 2012 at 7:14 PM ^
and all of a sudden he's Doug Flutie. Denard is a speed demon, racks up unreal numbers per game and throws an amazing completion "accurately" to Roundtree to beat ND with 8 seconds to go! C'mon man!

Gotta agree with Gabranto, we should focus on a single game - the Notre Dame game. It was more memorable, viewed and replayed by the Nation.
January 31st, 2012 at 7:36 PM ^
What kind of crap is that? Did he put two of Denard's performances up there on purpose so that Denard wouldn't win? I think a lot of feedback is needed.

I voted for the Ohio performance without reading this thread. I guess I should've voted for ND, but his game against Ohio was his best performance of his career to date no doubt about it. He wasn't very sharp passing the ball against ND.
January 31st, 2012 at 8:00 PM ^
Fuck it, let's put the Ohio win way out in the lead and then vote up the ND performance to make it a tie between both of his performances.
For the record, I voted the Ohio game. I didn't even hesitate. Denard's first 3 quarters against ND made me almost put a head-sized hole in a wall in my living room.

30% to 29%

Time to fire up a bot or two.

Remember to vote for Beilein in the Infinity Coaches Challenge (in a shootout with Matta at 33%). http://promo.espn.go.com/espn/contests/infiniti/2012/index
While you're at it, might as well get that daily Zack Novak vote in for the Lowe's Senior Class Award. http://www.seniorclassaward.com/vote/mens_basketball_2011-12/

because Denard is waaaayyyy out in front if you were to tally up his total votes. However, I do get that this isn't a popularity contest. I'll just be a bit peeved if Kork wins with 28% to Denards 27% and 26%
