OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
QB Brian Brunner, Central Michigan

Honorable Mention: Devin Moore, RB, Wyoming: 234 yards, three touchdowns
DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK
LB Maurice Kitchens, Marshall
Kitchens made big plays all game long in the Thundering Herd’s win over Houston. Kitchens recorded eight tackles (1.5 TFLs), a sack, an interception and a fumble recovery, which he returned 80 yards, setting up a touchdown.
Honorable Mention: Jerry Hughes, LB, TCU: four tackles, two sacks, one pass defensed
SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK
K/P Louie Sakoda, Utah
With Utah clinging to a 13-10 lead, Sakoda pinned New Mexico at their own one-yard line with 1:58 remaining in the game, his fourth punt inside the Lobos’ 20-yard line. He also made two field goals (38 & 43 yards) in the Utes’ win.
