With 5 receptions for 174 yards and two incredible touchdowns, Butler got the respect from the national media that he deserves. His performance earned him a spot the on the PFF College Big 12 Team of the Week.

Butler uses his unique size, strength, and speed to bully defensive backs, and it’s exactly what he did to the Sooner secondary. The 6’6 and 225 lb receiver used all of his skills on his two touchdowns.

After he found his rhythm last week, he went on a roll.
