I wasn't expecting to have Red Raiders take home both freshman of the year awards. A nice little surprise.

Congratulations to Troy, Morty, Captain Wilson, RR, and Larry! What a season for the Utes. If you told me in preseason that we would have two DBs in the All Big-12 team I would've called you a liar!
