KeSean Carter's college career started to take off in Texas Tech's 2019 season finale at Texas. Carter has picked up this season where he left off last season and had another good game Saturday against Texas. The Red Raiders' slot receiver caught seven passes for 77 yards and two touchdowns, a highlight for Tech in a 63-56 overtime loss at Jones AT&T Stadium. "I'm starting to see a lot of progress," Carter said. "I worked hard for this. (Strength and conditioning) Coach (Dave) Scholz has been helping me, and I'm progressing my game as I go through the season." Carter's touchdowns were for 13 yards in the first quarter and for 22 yards in the second quarter. The junior from The Woodlands sparked Tech's first offensive series with three catches for 43 yards, and he got the payoff when Alan Bowman fired a bullet pass to him over the middle for the touchdown. Last year in Austin, Carter caught 11 passes for 150 yards and a TD against the Longhorns. - Lubbock Avalanche Journal

09/17/20 - Clayton Tune, rSr/2023, Houston, 6-3, 220 (DS#12 QB) + More +

UH quarterback Clayton Tune was sharp in last year's season finale, throwing for 393 yards and a career-best four touchdowns in a 56-41 loss to Navy. Clayton Tune's No. 3 jersey underwent a minor alteration this summer. A "C" patch was sewn into the top right corner of his football jersey, identifying Tune as one of the University of Houston's team-elected captains for this season. "It means a lot," Tune, set to begin a season as the Cougars' starting quarterback for the first time, said Wednesday during a Zoom call with reporters. "I don't take it lightly. I think it's a testament of the work I've put in for guys to vote for me to be a captain. It's a great honor." It's not uncommon for a quarterback to be selected a captain, although it's not a given. Tune's selection after only nine career starts over the last two seasons shows how quickly he has taken a leadership role and earned the respect of teammates. "He's got the ear of the team, the respect of the team," coach Dana Holgorsen said. - Houston Chronicle

09/16/20 - Grant Stuard, Sr/2021, Houston, 6-0, 225 (DS#27 OLB) + More +

Linebacker Grant Stuard will be the first UH player to ever wear No. 0 in a game after the NCAA's rule change that allows players to wear that number. Back in 1972, linebacker Bubba Broussard attempted to wear the game. A few days before the season opener, SWC director of officials Cliff Speegle informed head coach Bill Yeoman that only numbers 1 through 99 were allowed under NCAA rules, according to an account in the Chronicle. At the same time, linebacker Charles Evans had attempted to wear "00." Broussard instead wore No. 2 and Evans returned to his old No. 59. Stuard, a senior team captain, said he chose to wear No. 0 because it's the number of his favorite basketball player, Russell Westbrook. "Honestly, I always wanted to wear No. 0," Stuard said. "When 0 became available I just felt like that was for me." - Houston Chronicle

08/22/20 - Brandon Mack II, rSr/2027, Houston, 6-3, 245 (DS#79 DE) + More +

The pass rush might be the biggest question mark for Ole Miss. Last year's sack leader Sam Williams is suspended indefinitely and last season's entire defensive line graduated. One player who defensive coaches and players alike have identified as a candidate to step up in the pass rush unit is freshman Brandon Mack. "I feel like Brandon Mack is doing an unbelievable job," Jones said. "Taking on blocks, holding blocks, setting the edge. He's just stepping up a lot. I seen it a little bit (last year) but he's stepping up a lot." Mack redshirted in 2019 and didn't see any game action. A 3-star recruit from Montgomery, Alabama, Mack is 6-foot-4 and 235 pounds and logged 25 tackles for loss and 10 sacks as a high schooler. - The Clarion Ledger
