NC State quarterback was named to the 2015 Manning Award Watch List today.  The Manning Award has been awarded to the nations to quarterback since 2004.  You might be able to guess who the award is named after: Archie and a couple of guys named Peyton and Eli.

Brissett put together one of the best seasons ever by a quarterback in a Wolfpack jersey. He was one of just three quarterbacks in the Power 5 conferences with at least 2,000 passing yards, 300 rushing yards, 20 passing TDs and five or less interceptions (Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Mariotta being one of the others). In the previous five seasons, only eight Power 5 quarterbacks have matched those numbers.
