They say everything is bigger in Texas, and that’s especially true when it comes to football. In fact, there’s a college football award that revolves entirely around players with some connection to the Lone Star State. And a Notre Dame receiver could win it this year.

Irish receiver [autotag]Jaden Greathouse[/autotag] has been named to the watch list for the Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award. To be eligible, a player must play on the offensive side of the ball and either was born in Texas or played football at a high school, junior college or university based in the state. The player must also share characteristics with the Hall of Fame running back the award is named for.

This award first was given out in 2013. So far, only quarterbacks and running backs have won it, and only one winner has played for a college team based north of the Mason-Dixon Line. Time for Greathouse to make some history.
