9/8/2025 | Football
DALLAS-Jax State claimed three of Conference USA’s Player of the Week awards after a 34-24 win over Liberty.
Running back Cam Cook was the league’s Offensive Player of the Week after putting together a career day with 29 carries for 195 yards and a pair of touchdown runs. His 11-yard score with 12:35 to go in the second quarter put the Gamecocks up 14-7 and his one-yard run with 7:13 left in the third put his team back up by 10.
His 195 yards are the most by an FBS player in a game this season.
Kicker Garrison Rippa was selected as the Special Teams Player of the Week, connecting on four extra points and a pair of field goals. This included his second make of 50+ in his career.
Right guard Bubba Grayson was named the Offensive Lineman of the Week after helping clear the way for the Gamecocks to amass 338 rushing yards on 50 carries for an average of 6.89 yards per rush and did not allow a sack.
The win moved Jax State to the top of the Conference USA standings alongside WKU. On Saturday, the Gamecocks will take on Georgia Southern in Statesboro, Ga.
