LSU's...Peterson, Sheppard on Nagurski Watch List

LSU cornerback Patrick Peterson and linebacker Kelvin Sheppard have been selected to the watch list for the 2010 Bronko Nagurski Trophy, which is presented annually to college football's best defensive player, the Football Writers Association of America has announced.
Peterson and Sheppard both made the initial 74-player list that will be trimmed to five finalists during the season. The Bronko Nagurski Trophy winner will be announced on Dec. 6 at a banquet put on by the Charlotte Touchdown Club at the Westin Charlotte Hotel.
Twelve Southeastern Conference players were named to the list. LSU All-American defensive tackle Glenn Dorsey was the last SEC player to receive the award, doing so during the Tigers' 2007 national championship season.
