Through the 2008 season, as far as the Associated Press awards go that has happened once.
In 2003, the Associated Press awarded their Offensive Player of the Year award to Jamal Lewis and their Defensive Player of the Year award to Ray Lewis, both of the Baltimore Ravens.

How do you 'foul' in basketball?
A foul in basketball can range from two different kinds: offensive and defensive fouls, as well as technical fouls. Offensive fouls are fouls when you are on the offensive end, like pushing someone to the side to shoot or pushing slapping someone on the arm to get to the basket. Defensive fouls are the same, but on the defensive end. Technical fouls are called when you do something improper in basketball. For instance, yelling at the referee, throwing the basketball in the stands, and yelling at other players will result in technical fouls. There are offensive and defensive fouls in basketball. A defensive foul occurs when a defender makes contact with the player in possession. An offensive foul occurs when the player with the ball makes contact with a defender who's arms are inside his body. If an offensive player runs into a defensive player whose position is established (both feet are planted) or the offensive player drops his shoulder or pushes off with his arm, then the contact is deemed an offensive foul (foul against the offensive player) and is usually called a "charge." Flagrant fouls occur when one player grabs another and pulls him down, or a player is injured as a result of a hard foul. Technical fouls include defensive three-second penalties and, at the discretion of the official, when a player or coach exhibits unsportsmanlike conduct. By definition a foul is "when one player gains an illegal advantage over another through physical contact". In layman's terms, physical contact between two players is not illegal. However, if that contact creates an advantage (as in a shot was affected or a player could not move freely to another position on the court) then it is deemed a foul. If you are Thomas Robinson from the University of Kansas apparently all you have to do to be called for a foul is be on the court.
Can a college football team have two players with the same number?
Yes. However, two players with the same number cannot be on the field at the same time. Therefore, if a team has to give the same number to two players, they almost always have one offensive player and one defensive player share the number.

Why does the Notre Dame football team have duplicate jersey numbers?
Simply there is no rule against it. Popular numbers are desired by multiple players. Both players with the same number can not be on the field at the same time however. So generally when a number is duplicated one goes to an offensive player and one to a defensive player.
In football How do you get half of a sack?
When two players reach the quarterback at the same time and make the tackle, the sack is divided between the two players. Same with tackles ... you might see in the game's statistics where a defensive player had 5.5 tackles. This is because, when two players are responsible for bringing the ball carrier down, regardless of whether it is the quarterback or another offensive player, the sack/tackle is divided between the two defensive players.
In football is a center and a snapper the same player?
Yes they are the same, their job is to hand the ball to the quarterback and block defensive linemen.
Why do defensive linemen have to put one hand on the ground in the NFL game?
They don't, there is no rule that states they have to. One reason the defensive lineman gets in a three point stance (one hand on the ground) is to put him on the same level as the offensive lineman, who also is in a three point stance. One of the keys of being able to keep the offensive lineman from controlling a defensive lineman is for the defensive lineman to have a lower center of gravity. If the offensive lineman can get low on a defensive lineman he can pretty much move him anywhere he wants. This is particularly important on running plays where the offensive line is to trying to open a 'hole' for the running back to run through.
What positions play on the defensive line?
Nose tackle/nose guard defensive tackle & defensive end. Nose tackle or nose guard same position it when lineman gets in stance in front of center or slightly off center. Defensive tackle usually lines up anywhere between centers outside shoulder & offensive tackles inside shoulder & defensive ends usually line up on either offensive tackles or tight ends outside shoulder.
