Well, I voted for Colt McCoy this year. I felt like he got his team where they need to be. Didn’t have a real good outing the other night but, kind of did it all for Texas. He ran; I think he was the leading rusher again. And he just gets his team ahead at all times and just I felt he had a great year."
