Each week, we will be announcing our players of the week for the Mountain West Conference. Disclaimer: These are not the official are not the official announcements from the Mountain West. We will be handing out three awards each week: Offensive player of the week, defensive player of the week, and special teams player of the week.
Offensive Player of the Week:
Nick Starkel (San Jose State)
There were five or six guys deserving of the award this week, but Starkel’s performance against the Lobos stood out. In his second start for the Spartans, the grad transfer quarterback completed 34 of 47 passes for 467 yards and five touchdowns.
