A dominating nationally televised effort on Thursday night earned Ray Graham a national offensive player of the week honor.
University of Pittsburgh junior running back Ray Graham has been named the Walter Camp Football Foundation’s National Offensive Player of the Week for his performance in the Panthers’ 44-17 victory over USF this past Thursday.
Graham (Elizabeth, N.J./Elizabeth) rushed for 226 yards and two touchdowns on 26 carries (8.7 avg.) against previously unbeaten USF. He added four receptions for 42 yards.
The Walter Camp National Players of the Week are selected by a panel of national media members and administered by the Walter Camp Football Foundation.
A cool honor. I would assume that Graham will also be given his second Big East offensive player of the week honor tomorrow. The only competition is WVU RB Dustin Garrison who ran for 291 yards and 2 TDs on 32 carries, but it came against Bowling Green.
Can I get that Big East office paranoia out there now by wondering if the Providence offices would bypass Graham in favor of Garrison out of petulance towards Pitt? Too soon?
