Hogs' Wilson makes O'Brien cut

Arkansas' Tyler Wilson was the only SEC quarterback named as one of 16 semifinalists for the 2011 Davey O'Brien national quarterback award.

Wilson leads the SEC with 2,011 passing yards and has thrown 12 touchdown passes and three interceptions.

Given how steady he's been, it's a little surprising that LSU senior quarterback Jarrett Lee didn't make the cut. Lee leads the SEC in pass efficiency and has thrown 13 touchdown passes and only one interception. He's also completing 63.2 percent of his passes.
