SEC lists Players of the Week

After an action-packed Week 3 of college football across the SEC, the league announced on Monday its Players of the Week.

The list includes honors for the best offensive, defensive and special teams players — as well as standouts among freshmen and on the offensive and defensive lines. You can check the winners out right here:

Co-Offensive Player of the Week: Jayden Daniels (QB, LSU)
Co-Offensive Player of the Week: Malik Nabers (WR, LSU)
Defensive Player of the Week: Trey Washington (S, Ole Miss)
Special Teams Player of the Week: Harrison Mevis (K, Missouri)
Offensive lineman of the Week: Sedrick Van Pran (OL, Georgia)
Co-Defensive Linemen of the Week:  Cam Jackson (DE, Florida)
Co-Defensive Linemen of the Week: TJ Sanders (DT, South Carolina)
Freshman of the Week: Jordan Castell (S, Florida)

Leading the way, it’s a pair of LSU Tigers who showed out on the offensive side of the football this past weekend. In their SEC opener at Mississippi State, LSU muffled the cow bells with a thorough beatdown of the home team, and largely thanks to the Daniels-Nabors combo.

From 26 yards and then a second time from 33 yards, Daniels hit his star wideout with a couple of frozen ropes to put LSU up 17-0 early in the second quarter. On the day, Daniels combined to throw and run for 425 total yards as Nabers helped out on more than half of those with 239 of his own receiving yards along with the two touchdown catches. They may be the most lethal QB-WR duo in the conference.

The choice for Special Teams Player of the Week was easy. Missouri’s Harrison Mevis immortalized himself in Tiger lore on Saturday when he knocked in a game-winning field goal from his team’s side of the 50-yard line. It was the longest kick of the ’23 college football season to date at 61 yards and three points for the Tigers to triumph 30-27 over a top-20 Kansas State squad.
