GoFrogs: Duggan on Maxwell Award Watch List
SOUTHAMPTON, Pa. -- TCU quarterback Max Duggan has been selected to the watch list for the Maxwell Award, presented annually to the most outstanding player in college football.
Duggan is one of just 15 sophomores nationally on the list.
Duggan was honorable-mention Big 12 Offensive Freshman of the Year last season. He was also the Davey O'Brien Award National Quarterback of the Week after leading the Horned Frogs to a 37-27 victory over Texas. Additionally, he was on the 2019-20 Academic All-Big 12 Rookie Team.
A native of Council Bluffs, Iowa, Duggan started the final 10 games last year and set TCU true freshman records with 2,077 yards passing and 15 touchdown passes. He placed second on the Horned Frogs with 555 yards rushing and six touchdowns.
Duggan became just the second true freshman to start at quarterback in the 19-year tenure of TCU Head Coach Gary Patterson. He was also the third non-Texan to start at quarterback in the Patterson era. Duggan did not throw an interception with the first 143 pass attempts of his career, the second-longest streak in TCU history (154, Jeff Ballard, 2006). It was also the third-longest streak since 2008 for a Power 5 true freshman quarterback to begin his career without a pick.
Duggan totaled a career-best 398 yards of offense in the 33-31 win at Texas Tech. He had a career-high 115 yards rushing at Kansas State to become the first TCU quarterback with a 100-yard game since 2015. Duggan also ran for 72 yards against Texas and 86 versus Oklahoma State to become the first quarterback in four years to lead TCU in rushing in three consecutive games. Duggan also rushed for 92 yards against Oklahoma, including a career-long 62-yard carry and an 11-yard scoring run.
Duggan completed 19-of-27 passes for a then career-high 273 yards passing and two touchdowns in the win over Texas. His 11-yard touchdown run with 1:59 to play provided the Horned Frogs' final points to seal the victory. He became the first TCU quarterback to throw for at least 250 yards and multiple scores and rush for at least 70 yards and a touchdown in the same game since 2015.
Former TCU quarterback Davey O'Brien was the 1938 Maxwell Award recipient.
