CO-QUARTERBACK – Kyle McCord, Syracuse, QB, Mt. Laurel, New Jersey
McCord notched new career highs for the second week in a row in multiple statistical categories to lead Syracuse to a victory over No. 23 Georgia Tech. McCord completed 32-of-46 passing attempts for 381 yards and four touchdowns. His completions, attempts and yards were all career highs, and the four touchdown throws matched his career high, set in Week 1 versus Ohio. McCord currently leads the nation with eight touchdown passes through two weeks of the season and has 735 yards passing, which leads the ACC and is third in the FBS. McCord was named one of the eight Manning Award Stars of the Week.

OFFENSIVE LINEMAN – Da’Metrius Weatherspoon, Syracuse, LT, Clairton, Pennsylvania
Weatherspoon was the Orange's highest-graded offensive lineman in Syracuse's conference win over No. 23 Georgia Tech. He helped keep a clean pocket and pave the way for the ‘Cuse offense to put up 515 yards of offense, including 381 through the air. The left tackle had one knockdown, did not allow a sack and graded at 85-percent overall during his 76-play effort

Never have been happier about being right about a recruit than with 'Spoon. We haven't had a LT play at his level in quite some time. And to think he's coming up a level too, just a great story overall.

and we may have him for another year (guess there's a chance he crushes it and he leaves early...)

I think he gets that he has a great opportunity to play himself into the draft and is seizing his moment.

Weatherspoon is a beast but we did have Bergeron playing LT here just a couple of years ago. Before that though, I agree with your sentiment. Loved Weatherspoon get recognition this week. He’s really stepped up and it has allowed Kyle to thrive
