ESPN has all the jokes.

During Thursday night’s Home Depot College Football Awards Show, host Chris Fowler walked through the crowd of players and coaches, stopping to talk with several award candidates. He seemed to take subtle jabs at everyone, nothing too mean-spirited, everything in good fun.

One of the best jokes of the night might’ve come with J.T. Barrett.

As Fowler worked his way through the crowd, someone on the show set up orange cones around the Ohio State quarterbacks so no camera men or photographers would collide him with. As you might recall, a photographer crashed into Barrett along the sideline at Michigan Stadium, forcing him to leave the game early.

Everyone had a good laugh about it, even Barrett. Although nobody had a camera on Urban Meyer. He might still be really angry about the whole thing.

Sometimes these awards shows can be a little too serious. It’s good to see that everyone is having a little fun.
