Offensive Player to Watch vs. Oklahoma State: Kene Nwangwu

Related Topics: Big 12 Conference

Breece Hall has certainly been the best running back in the Big 12 conference, if not the country through the first four games of 2020. While Hall has been getting all the shine, redshirt-senior Kene Nwangwu has been using every touch he has gotten to the best of his ability.

With 18 total offensive touches in four games, Nwangwu has recorded 129 yards from scrimmage already eclipsing his yardage total from a season ago. His two rushing touchdowns also doubles his previous career total of only one. The Frisco, TX native has obviously done a great job being the change of pace back for Breece, as he has carried the ball 15 times for 107 yards on the season, but his presence has been felt on special teams.
