OFFENSE
Nick Chubb, RB, Georgia

• This marked Chubb's 20th career game with at least 100 yards rushing
• He moved closer to Bulldog legend Herschel Walker with his career rushing total of 3,904 yards and inched into the No. 4 spot on the nation's active career leaders list as Georgia totaled 294 yards on the ground versus the Vols.

Jarrett Stidham, QB, Auburn

• Completed 13-of-16 passes for 264 yards and 2 touchdowns in the Tigers' 49-10 win over #24 Mississippi State.

DEFENSE
Levi Wallace, DB, Alabama

• Levi Wallace sparked an impressive defensive showing in a 66-3 win over Ole Miss with two interceptions, including his first defensive touchdown.

SPECIAL TEAMS
Josh Paschal, DE, Kentucky

• Blocked a punt that set up the eventual game-winning touchdown in Kentucky's 24-20 win over Eastern Michigan
• With UK clinging to a 17-14 lead in the fourth quarter, Paschal deftly broke through the line and punter shield, also deducing the correct place and time to block a running rugby punt
• The blocked punt went for an 18-yard loss back to the EMU 12-yard line, setting up Benny Snell's 12-yard TD run on the next play
• On the play before the blocked punt, Paschal forced a third-down incompletion with a quarterback hurry
• In the first quarter, he shared a third-down quarterback sack with Josh Allen, forcing a punt
