LOS ANGELES — USC wide receivers Drake London and Tahj Washington were named to the 2021 Watch List for the Biletnikoff Award, presented to the college football's top receiver by the Tallahassee Quarterback Club Foundation.
Semifinalists will be announced on Nov. 22, then three finalists will be named on Nov. 29. The winner will be announced on the ESPN Home Depot College Football Awards Show on Dec. 9.
London, a junior, has 72 career receptions with 8 TDs, including 33 catches for a team-high 502 yards last fall. He pulled down the game-winning 21-yard TD pass over 2 defenders late in the Arizona State opener and had a highlight reel 65-yard catch-and-run TD at UCLA where he bulled through most of the Bruin defense.
Washington is a sophomore transfer from Memphis, where he was a 2020 Freshman All-American first teamer after getting 43 receptions for 743 yards with 6 TDs. His receiving yardage was the most by any freshman in the nation last fall (he had a trio of 100-yard receiving games).
