Top Freshman
Jeremy Grove, LB East Carolina
3 Big Calls For The Second Half
1. Houston will lose a game that it shouldn’t because of the play of its leaky defense.
2. For the second straight season, Tulsa will rally around QB G.J. Kinne to once again finish the year as hot as any team in Conference USA.
3. Courtesy of a strong second half, Rice QB Taylor McHargue will enter the offseason as one of the league’s hottest young stars.
