College Football Awards: Week 1

Everyone loves the award season at the end of the year, but you never hear any mention of any awards outside of The Heisman as the season progresses, or at least not until the finalists are released.

I thought, well why not issue week to week winners of all the awards. Plenty of sites award Helmet Stickers and POW nominations but I'm going the extra step. Each week I will issue not watch lists or finalists but the winners of the Week by Week Awards for all 18 Major D-1 Awards.
