CHARLESTON, S.C. (June 9) - The University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff quarterback Benjamin Anderson has been named to the 2014 College Football Performance Awards Watch List.

The initial watch list includes 36 returning performers, vying for the top quarterback award in the Football Championship Subdivision. All players are eligible for awards at their respective positions; players are not preemptively eliminated from consideration.
 
The goal of College Football Performance Awards is to provide the most scientifically rigorous conferment in college football. Recipients are selected exclusively based upon objective scientific rankings of the extent to which individual players increase the overall effectiveness of their teams. Twenty-eight CFPA winners have been first-round NFL Draft selections.

Anderson, a 6-3, 200, redshirt senior from Little Rock, Ark., passed for 2,777 yards as he completed 210 passes in 357 attempts with 11 interceptions and 19 TD passes, while rushing for 809 yards on 183 carries to go along with nine rushing TDs for 3,586 total offensive yards.
