Lynch posted his second straight TSWA honor and third this season, establishing a new school record with 447 passing yards in the Tigers' 66-42 win over Tulsa. The Deltona, Fla. native completed 32-of-44 passes with four touchdowns to extend Memphis' current win streak to 14 games, including eight straight on the road. The junior added a three-yard scoring run in the win.
The game marked his second 400-yard passing game this season and he has passed for 300-plus yards in six straight games.
