Who is worthy of being nominated as the Freshman of the Week in the SBC for week four?

The following were nominated, please vote for the unofficial Sun Belt Football Freshman or RS Freshman of Week 4 above. 9/23/2014

Taylor Lamb, App State, QB, RS Freshman, 28/40, 264 yards, 2TD and 2Int
AState: Walkon FR RB Johnston White 18 Carries for 100 yards, 1TD
GS RS Freshman RB LA Ramsby with 12 carries, 26 yds, and 1 TD.
Idaho's Matt Lineham threw for 33/56, 353 yards, 2TD and 3INT
Trey Payne, GaSt, RS Freshman, 13 total tackles 10 solo 1 tackle for loss and 1 forced fumble.

That Lamb guy had a pretty good week, no?

AState: Walkon FR RB Johnston White 18 Carries for 100 yards and the game tying touchdown against one of the top 15 run defenses in the country.

Not much of a Freshman impact for GS this week, once again our only viable entry:

RS Freshman RB LA Ramsby with 12 carries, 26 yds, and 1 TD.

What about Sapp? Is he a freshman?

Yes, True Fr. He had 3 tackles. OP suggests only 1 nomination from each team so the vote is not split. Sapp's impact on the game was probably more than the stat line shows, but since LA had a TD, I just figured give it to him.

Actually, Utah State had the FOURTH best rushing defense in the nation coming into the A-State game, approximately 60+ yards allowed per game.

Love to play them and destroy those numbers

Idaho's Matt Linehan threw for 353 yards, 2TD and 3INT. I think before weekend he was already the first Freshman or new startting QB in Idaho history to 300+ back to back games. Now he just did it a 3rd time. He now has Idaho ranked 10th in the nation in passing. He is now ranked #23 passing yards
#36 in TDs thrown, #19 in Passing Attempts, #18 Complete Passes

So, any more nominations to be put to a vote?

White had a TD...don't forget the TD.

I was like damn he's got it....then I saw 3 INT.

Trey Payne red shirt freshman against Washington 13 total tackles 10 solo 1 tackle for loss and 1 forced fumble. He is seeing the field and his confidence is growing.

Johnston White's efforts aided in a big win too. The others were all done on the losing end.

White's efforts were behind a rebuilt OL that had a lot of trouble blocking Utah State all night...they gave up some awful sacks, so White's 100 yards were tough yards. White split time with 2 other freshmen RBs too.

I think the Idaho QBs numbers would have won it except for the 3 INTs and the loss and Payne's efforts at Ga State were very good but the numbers were also in a losing effort. Payne should be defensive Freshman player of the week and White Offensive Freshman play of the week.

Johnston White did his work against a TOUGH run defense. A-States 126 yards rushing was the most against them in the last 8 games - which included Tennessee and the bowl game against NIU's Jordan Lynch. Lynch had over 100 yards 8 times last season, but only managed 39 vs. Utah St on 18 carries. Twice the QB ran for over 300.

Wonder when was the last time a back had 100 yards rushing against the Utah State defense?

Same UNLV game last fall.

Bump.

Don't forget to vote.

I have a thing for D players showing out. The INTs for all the QBs is disheartening. Had to go with the D guy over the RB. They rarely get recognition in the big scheme of things.
