If you, like Lee, are wondering why the hell I am posting so much. It’s because I can. My wife and daughter are away for a couple of days which gives me a lot of extra time and no competition for the computer. This means I can bang out some things as they come, rather than save it all for one post.
So, despite my belief that Adam Graessle was going to win the Big East Special Teams Player of the Week on the basis of his 79 yard punt (they dropped it from 80, which would have tied the school record) and another overall solid week, it went to the Rutgers kicker who went 3-3 on his kicks in their win over Temple.
H.B. Blades, though earned co-Defensive Player of the Week honors. Blades, “made a game-high 13 tackles. The Panther defense allowed only 56 yards rushing. The Eagles went into the game averaging 183.6 yards per game.” He shares the award with Rutgers defensive back Ron Girault. Excuse my snippiness, but how does Rutgers in a 16-6 home win over one of the worst teams in all of college football generate 2 BE Player of the Week honors?
Just wondering.
