So, yea. It's kind of hard to argue with the OPoTW choice being Barrett with that stat line and significance of the game. Wait a minute, not it's not...

Seriously though, JT is a deserving selection. And the Gophers have Floyd. And Maxx still played an insane game. And nothing will take that away.
