UVA wideout Olamide Zaccheaus is a bit of a surprise omission, to me, anyway, from the list of 11 semifinalists for the 2018 Biletnikoff Award, announced today by the Tallahassee Quarterback Club Foundation.
There were no ACC receivers among the list of semifinalists, which is even more a surprise.
Full disclosure: I’m a first-year Biletnikoff Award voter this year.
Zaccheaus is second in the ACC with 67 catches, third in the conference in receiving yards with 807, fourth in receiving yards per game (80.7 yards per game).
So, yeah, he was one of my vote-getters.
