UGA's Murray named to Maxwell Award watch-list

Aaron Murray has been named to the 2011 Maxwell Award watch list, one of only a small number of sophomores added to this year's list.

The only Bulldogs that have won the award are Herschel Walker and Charlie Trippi.

Murray will be following up a freshman All-American performance as he was the leading freshman in the NCAA with a passer rating of 156.4. He passed for over 3,000 yards and accounted for 28 touchdowns as a redshirt freshman in the powerful SEC.

Murray's talent combined with the Bulldog's favorable schedule place Murray in a very good place to make a run at the 2011 Maxwell Award.
