 Jaden Nixon, Central Florida, Player News


  WEEK 2 BIG 12 CO-OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Jaden Nixon, RB, UCF...With 156 rushing yards on just four carries with two touchdowns against North Carolina A&T, Nixon made UCF history throughout Saturday's game. His 87-yard touchdown run was the third longest play from scrimmage in program history after returning the opening kickoff 96 yards for a touchdown. Nixon also became just the fourth player in UCF's FBS history to return a kickoff for a touchdown and tally an offensive touchdown in the same game. - Big 12 Football

  UCF's Jaden Nixon opened the game with a 92-yard touchdown return and added touchdown runs of 87 and 66 yards as UCF never looked back in a dominant 68-7 victory over North Carolina A&T. Nixon ran for 156 yards on four carries and two touchdowns. His 87-yard touchdown run was the third-longest in UCF's history. The Knights also fell five points short of setting the program record for points scored in a game.

The Knights (2-0) took that opening kickoff and kept on running, steamrolling the Aggies even when many of the team's reserves came into the game. Backup quarterback Jacurri Brown took over in the second half and rushed for 106 yards on five carries, including a 60-yard touchdown run. The Knights' defense stepped up, too, recording two sacks and forcing three turnovers. That included a strip sack by defensive lineman Nyjalik Kelly that was recovered in the endzone by Rodney Lora. UCF outgained North Carolina A&T 560-200 in the game. Shimique Blizzard got the Aggies on the board with a 17-yard touchdown run with three minutes to play. - UCF/AP College Football

  OCT 3 BIG 12 SPECIAL TEAMS & CO-NEWCOMER PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Jaden Nixon, OSU, RB, Fr.,...Nixon returned the opening kickoff of the second half 98 yards for a touchdown in the Cowboys' 36-25 win at Baylor. It marked the longest return of his career, OSU's longest return of the season and the first OSU kickoff return touchdown since Brennan Presley's 100-yard return in last year's win over Oklahoma. Nixon's return also tied for the eighth-longest kickoff return in Cowboy history and marked the longest kickoff return for any Big 12 player this season. The freshman finished the game with three kickoff returns for 131 yards, with his yardage total also ranking as the most for a Big 12 player in a game this season. - Big 12 Football
