QB Quincy Greisen won the Heisman. And another Fresno State guy won the Defensive Player of the Year. Hmm, does strength of schedule or school prestige factor into these awards at all?

Here are the national and conference awards.

All in all, I feel that Martin got jobbed by Lucas for 1st Team All-American honors. If he plays even one of the games where he was hurt it is a no-brainer.
