    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: WERNER ENTERPRISES OUTLAND TROPHY AWARD DINNER SCHEDULED FOR JANUARY 9, 2019 For the 22nd consecutive year, the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA) has awarded Omaha the Outland Trophy Award Dinner presentation. This year the Werner Enterprises Outland Trophy Award Dinner will be held Wednesday, January 9, 2019, at the Downtown DoubleTree Hotel, Omaha, Nebraska. The Home Depot ESPNU College Football Awards announced on ESPN Thursday, Dec. 6, from the College Football Hall of Fame in Atlanta, GA, that Quinnen Williams from the University of Alabama, is the winner of the 2018 Outland Trophy. This year’s winner and his coach will be in attendance at the Dinner on January 9th. Quinnen Williams, NG, Alabama (6-4, 295, So., Birmingham, AL): The upstart sophomore leads unbeaten Alabama with 14.0 tackles for loss for minus-58 yards and is tied for 11th in the SEC with 5.0 sacks. He too posted a career game against LSU, tallying career highs in tackles (10) and sacks (2.5) and tying a career high in tackles for loss (3.5). Williams clogs the middle and allows those around him to create havoc – Alabama has had at least 10 tackles for loss in five of 10 games and in three straight. The Crimson Tide's 36 sacks (3.60 per game) are both tied for No. 3 nationally. The FWAA awarded the Outland Trophy Award Dinner to the Greater Omaha Sports Committee in 1997.
