Nixon was first team all Big 10, won the best defensive lineman in the Big 10, and was the defensive player of the year.
There are 3 teams. If he didn’t make one, he’d have to be dead. But yea, pretty easy to do with how bad the BIG10 is defensively this year. But good for him

Yeah Nixon is a total stud. One of the best in the country and the best defensive player in the state.

Compare them to McDonald's
McDonald:
- 8.5 sacks
- 10.5 TFL
- 11 games played

Nixon:
- 5.5 Sacks
- 13.5 TFL
- 8 games played

Both have similar sack per game percentage and Nixon has a way better TFL per game percentage. And before any clone fan uses yeah but holding, both of these guys get mugged. McDonald is held quite a bit from what I’ve seen, but so is Nixon.

Per game WTF is that?
Season stats are season stats
BiG math says 6 games is a season
Plus you're using old data
McDonald got another sack today

So 9.5. You have to take everything into account. Nixon had crazy impressive numbers for just playing 8 games so far. Hence the reason he is up for multiple national awards. McDonald is a very good football player, I’m not trying to take anything away from what he’s accomplished. When it comes down to it, Nixon is a better player. Just like Hall is a better player than Goodson.

9.5 sacks is more than 5.5
2 FF are more than 1 FF
Those are their 2020 season stats.
I didn't try to say who was the better player. They play different positions. I simply stated the stats don't support your statement.

Let's look at career stats
Nixon is a junior
8.5 sacks 1 FF
McDonald is a sophomore
16.5 sacks 4 FF

It's not even close

Nixon is a junior by eligibility due to him going to Juco. His first year playing D1 ball was last year and he didn’t even start.
