Special Teams Player of the Week
 
Gus Nave, South Alabama (Fr., DB)
Nave returned a blocked field goal 83 yards for the Jags’ first touchdown of the night, sparking a stretch late in the first quarter in which South scored 21 points in less than three minutes to break open the game. He later added his first career interception and chipped in a career-high-tying three tackles on defense to help USA record its first shutout since Oct. 16, 2010, and the program’s largest margin of victory ever against an NCAA Division I opponent while giving up just 172 total yards.
