Travis Greene MAC East Offensive POTW

The awards kept on rolling for BG, as Travis Greene was named the MAC East Offensive Player of the Week for his performance against the Zips.  I kind of suspected he would be the favorite after rushing for 142 and having 71 rushing yards.  It was a huge day, the best in his short career, and shows promise for the future.

BG's offense is much improved this year.  There are a number of components, but the biggest surprises have been the play of Matt Johnson (which everyone thinks about) and Travis Greene (which fewer might think about).  You lose a guy like Anthon Samuel, have injuries effecting your back up (Jamel Martin) and you move a guy from WR and he is producing like this?  Just a huge break and a good example of what happens when you recruit guys who are football players.

Congrats Travis.
