Mac Miller is up for two Woodies at the 2012 mtvU Woodie Awards, one of which will pit him against hip-hop powerhouses Jay-Z & Kanye West. Based on his popularity in the college scene, he could very well take them down.

The Pittsburgh party rapper, who topped the Billboard charts last fall, is up for Woodie of the Year and the Performing Woodie at the show, which will take place on March 18 at Austin's SXSW conference.

Last year, Miller's labelmate at Rostrum, Wiz Khalifa, won the Woodie of the Year. 

Fans can cast their votes through March 9 at www.mtv.com
