Offense: Rawleigh Williams III, Arkansas

Rawleigh Williams III faced a tough test this week, going up against a stout Florida defense. I think it is safe to say that he passed with flying colors. He carried the ball 26 times for 148 yards and two touchdowns on the day. And, most importantly, he led the Hogs to a big win.

Honorable Mentions:

Jake Bentley, QB, South Carolina

I can’t praise Jake Bentley enough. He just doesn’t look like a true freshman out on the field. Will Muschamp‘s decision to remove his redshirt is looking like a brilliant one. He led his team to a nice win over Missouri this week.

On the day, Bentley completed 22 of his 28 passes for 254 yards and two touchdowns. In addition, he took care of the football, throwing zero interceptions. Bentley is going to be a star in the SEC before all is said and done.

Nick Fitzgerald, QB, Mississippi State

Speaking of talented young quarterbacks, Mississippi State just so happens to have one of their own. Nick Fitzgerald was the man for the Bulldogs, leading them to a titanic upset over Texas A&M this week. He completed 18 of his 31 passes for 209 yards and two touchdowns.

Those are nice stats. However, Fitzgerald wasn’t done. He also added 182 rushing yards and two more touchdowns. He is the dual-threat successor to Dak Prescott.
