Pitt offensive lineman Brian O'Neill wins SB Nation's Piesman Award

So, in case you've not been following too closely, SB Nation created its own award for college football - The Piesman. Obviously a play off of the Heisman, the Piesman seeks to credit the best offensive lineman making a play with the football - either running, throwing, or catching it.

Here's a little more background on the award for context.

If you saw Pitt's win over Penn State earlier in the year, you no doubt remember offensive tackle Brian O'Neill catching a pass from quarterback Nathan Peterman and scoring a touchdown. O'Neill was a converted tight end so he's had some experience as a skill guy with the football.
