After beating South Alabama 22-17 and reaching a bowl for the first time in 57 years(!), the New Mexico State football team received more good news because on Monday, the Sun Belt named quarterback Tyler Rogers and linebacker Terrill Hanks offensive and defensive players of the week!
T-Rog (the T stands for touchdown) earned the award after throwing for 451 yards on 40 for 61 passing and two touchdowns, including the game winner to Conner Cramer.
He also led an incredible 83 yard drive in less than five minutes. The whole offense deserves credit for that but man, it was smooth.
