SEC has 3 Nagurski Trophy Finalists...LSU, Auburn, and Georgia

Five finalists for the 2010 Bronko Nagurski Trophy were announced on Wednesday by the Football Writers Association of America and the Charlotte Touchdown Club.
The Bronko Nagurski Trophy: Clemson end Da'Quan Bowers, Auburn tackle Nick Fairley, Georgia linebacker Justin Houston, Boston College linebacker Luke Kuechly and LSU cornerback Patrick Peterson are vying for one of the FWAA's highest honors, its National Defensive Player of the Year award.
The winner will be announced on Dec. 6 and presented the Bronko Nagurski Trophy at a gala banquet at the Westin Hotel in Charlotte, N.C., where Clemson coach Dabo Sweeney will be the keynote speaker.
In addition, the FWAA and Charlotte Touchdown Club will present the fourth Bronko Nagurski Legends Award, presented by CSX Intermodal, to Mike McCoy, a standout tackle at Notre Dame and a member of the 1969 FWAA All-America team.
The FWAA's National Defensive Player of the Year Award is named after Bronko Nagurski, who dominated college football at the University of Minnesota as a bruising fullback and defensive tackle from 1927-29. He could have been an All-American at any position, playing 60 minutes as the best player wherever he lined up.
