Week twelve of the college football season was certainly eventful in the Mountain West. There were some explosive offensive showings and some spectacular defensive showings. Let’s take a look at the top performers from week twelve.
Offensive Player of the Week
Jacory Croskey-Merritt (New Mexico)
The Lobo rushing attack had a dominant performance in their shocking victory over Fresno State. Croskey-Merritt finished the game with 21 carries for 204 yards and two touchdowns. It was a career day for Croskey-Merritt, and a huge win for the Lobos.
Defensive Player of the Week
Bryun Parham (San Jose State)
Parham had a phenomenal day for the Spartans and played a huge role in keeping their championship hopes alive. Parham finished the game with nine tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss, and an interception to help lead San Jose State to a 24-13 victory over the Aztecs.
Special Teams Player of the Week
James Ferguson-Reynolds (Boise State)
Ferguson-Reynolds had another huge day for the Broncos, averaging 51 yards on six punts. Ferguson-Reynolds has a realistic chance at being an all-american punter and is in the process of having the greatest punting season in Boise State history.
