Oregon running back Kenjon Barner, USC wide receiver Marqise Lee, Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel and Notre Dame linebacker Manti T'eo are the other finalists for the award, which will be given out on Dec. 6.

Klein was also named one of 10 finalists for the Manning Award, which wil take bowl performance into account. The two honors are just the latest for Klein, who is also a finalist for the Maxwell and Davey O'Brien awards.
