DALLAS – Middle Tennessee quarterback Brent Stockstill was named today the Conference USA Co-Offensive Player of the Week as announced by the league office. Stockstill led the Blue Raiders to an upset win over FAU.
Stockstill tallied 259 yards through the air on 27-of-40 passing against preseason Conference USA favorite FAU and tossed a touchdown pass for the 27th consecutive game, the second longest streak in the nation behind Penn State's Trace McSorley.
Stockstill was MT's leading rusher on the evening as well, carrying the ball 14 times for 56 yards to put him over 300 total yards against the Owls. Perhaps no play was bigger in the contest than Stockstill's 3-yard connection with WR Gatlin Casey for the game-winning 2-point conversion to give FAU their first conference loss since losing 77-56 to the Blue Raiders in November 2016.
It marks the third player of the week honor for Stockstill during his career and the first since 2016. Overall, this was the 72nd conference player of the week winner under Head Coach Rick Stockstill with 23 coming from C-USA and 49 from the Sun Belt. A total of 24 have been on offense, 27 on defense and 21 on special teams.
