Per U of MN pr
University of Minnesota quarterback Max Brosmer was named to the Davey O'Brien QB Class of 2024 today. The class consists of 35 standout quarterbacks and is the starting point for the Davey O'Brien Foundation as it selects its winner for the Davey O'Brien Award.
The award is presented annually to the collegiate American football player judged by the Davey O'Brien Foundation to be the best of all National Collegiate Athletic Association quarterbacks. It is the nation's oldest and most prestigious national quarterback award. The winner of the award will be announced on Thursday, Dec. 12.
Brosmer is one of six Big Ten quarterbacks on the list of 35 and has led the Gophers to a 5-3 record (3-2 Big Ten) in his first year in Maroon and Gold.
In eight games, Brosmer has completed 169-of-243 passes (69.5% completion percentage) for 1,776 yards and 12 touchdowns. He has also rushed for four touchdowns this season.
He led Minnesota to a 48-23 victory against Maryland in his most recent performance. In that game, Brosmer completed 26-of-33 passes (78.8 percent) for season-highs of 320 yards and four touchdowns against the Terrapins. He was the first Gopher with four or more passing touchdowns since Tanner Morgan had four at Northwestern on Nov. 23, 2019. His 320 passing yards rank 32nd in program history and are the most since Morgan threw for 368 yards at Iowa in 2019.
Brosmer and the Gophers return to action at Illinoi on Saturday, Nov. 2. Minnesota's next home game is Saturday, Nov. 23 against Penn State.
