The pair of Seminole standouts will be crucial to Florida State's success on both sides of the ball.
Defensive lineman Joshua Farmer was named to the Outland and Bronko Nagurski Trophy Watch Lists Tuesday, while offensive lineman Darius Washington joined Farmer on the Outland Trophy Watch List. The Outland Trophy is presented to the top interior lineman in the country and the Nagurski Trophy goes to the top defensive player in the country.
Washington, from Pensacola, has started 37 of the 47 games he has appeared in over the past five seasons, starting at center, left tackle and right tackle. He was a first-team All-ACC offensive lineman last season and was the ACC Offensive Lineman of the Week in FSU’s 39-17 win over Virginia Tech when running back Trey Benson ran for 200 yards on just 11 carries, setting the FSU record with 18.2 yards per carry.
Semifinalists for the Outland Trophy will be announced November 20, while the three finalists will be unveiled November 26 and the winner announced during the ESPN Home Depot College Football Awards Show held on December 12.
