Kirk Herbstreit named his top players of the week and two of those players came from SEC schools, Georgia back-up quarterback Stetson Bennett and Kentucky running back Chris Rodriguez Jr.
Bennett, who was replacing the injured JT Daniels, threw 5 touchdown passes in Georgia’s 56-7 victory Saturday over UAB. Rodriguez helped power the Wildcats to a 35-28 victory over Missouri with 206 yards rushing and 3 touchdowns.
Both of their efforts garnered them Co-SEC Offensive Players of the Week. Here is the rest of Herbstreit’s list:
- CJ Verdell, RB, Oregon
