2022 College Football Awards: TCU's Max Duggan Wins the Davey O'Brien Award

 

BRISTOL, CT - The 2022 NCAA Football regular season has come to a close, and it is that time of year for the College Football Award Show, which took place Thursday evening, Dec. 8 at ESPN headquarters in Bristol.

TCU Quarterback Max Duggan won the Davey O’Brien Award (Best Quarterback in the Nation). Duggan is the first TCU quarterback ever to win the award that is named after TCU legend Davey O’Brien.

Duggan and the rest of the Horned Frogs enter the College Football Playoff when they take on the Michigan Wolverines in the Fiesta Bowl on Dec. 31 at 3 p.m.

Here are the winners of each college football’s major awards announced on Thursday, Dec. 8.
