MEMPHIS — Senior quarterback Brady White has been named American Athletic Conference Co-Offensive Player of the Week and selected to both the Davey O'Brien National Quarterback Award's Great 8 list and Manning Award Stars of the Week after leading the Memphis Tigers to a record-setting comeback victory over UCF on Saturday at Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium.
White finished with career highs in completions (34), yards (486), passing touchdowns (6) and total touchdowns (7) in the Tigers' 50-49 win. His passing yards were also a Memphis record and his total touchdowns tied a school and AAC record as Memphis came back from a 21-point deficit in the second half to complete the largest comeback in program history.
