Maryland football quarterback Taulia Tagovailoa and wide receiver Rakim Jarrett both earned national recognition following their performance against West Virginia on Saturday.
Tagovailoa, who performed brilliantly in the Terps’ 30-24 victory, was named as a Manning Award Star of the Week. The junior is just one of eight quarterbacks in college football to be listed on the weekly award. Tagovailoa went 26-for-36 in the passing game and racked up 332 yards and three touchdowns. It was only the second time in Tagovailoa’s career that he totaled over 300 yards in a single game, while his 26 total completed passes tied a career-high.
