Good: Rashad Wisdom, S
It feels like a college football forever that we’ve been talking about Rashad Wisdom. His fifth season with the Roadrunners has started off with a bang as he leads the team with 14 solo tackles.
He’s come downhill very well and patrolled the middle in coverage all the same.
Great: Joshua Cephus, WR
It’s been a slow start for the UTSA offense with Frank Harris hobbled, yet Joshua Cephus has done more than enough to indicate he’s ready to explode at any given time. He’s got 31 catches for 305 yards and three scores already.
Clearly, he’s proved that he hasn’t lost a step nor does he miss his partner-in-crime, Zakhari Franklin (transfer) or De’Corian Clark (injured).
Grand: Kam Alexander, CB
A relatively new face on the defensive side of the ball for UTSA, Kam Alexander has expanded his role since transferring in from Sam Houston. He’s recorded four pass breakups and done a terrific job of limiting receivers in his primary coverage.
Wonderful: Trey Moore, EDGE
A living nightmare for opposing offensive linemen, Trey Moore has once again flashed brilliance for UTSA. Coming off the edge with terrific timing, a great get-off, and masterful strength-to-speed in his hands and feet, Moore picks and chooses his shots better than most.
He’s recorded four sacks, but that hardly indicates just how often he’s been in the backfield this year.
