His health looked much worse than last year.
This year, there was even less suspense, as Hansen won the honor again.
When he took the trophy from Russell again, Hansen asked about Russell's health.
"Kid, as long as you keep winning championships, I can keep standing here to present them to you." Legends like him never admit defeat.
That made Hansen laugh, and the two fist-bumped, as if they had really made some kind of agreement.
Hansen then gave his FMVP acceptance speech.
This time, his speech was more formal, thanking his parents and everyone around him, saying he couldn't have performed like that without them.
At the end of his speech, he also mentioned the goal he had previously talked about.
"We have completed two-thirds of the job, there's just one third left."
His words got the crowd roaring.
Hansen's seemingly incredible dynasty statement was now just one championship away.
