In late September, senior wide receiver Austin Carr was added to the Biletnikoff Award Watch List. Seven weeks later, he’s one of 10 semifinalists.
The Biletnikoff Award annually recognizes the most outstanding receiver in college football regardless of position, and Carr has been nothing short of outstanding. The senior leads the Big Ten in receptions (75), receiving yards (1,102), yards per game (110.2), and touchdowns (12). Nationally, he is sixth in touchdowns, ninth in yards and receptions per game, and tenth in yards per game.
Carr’s tremendous season has him in position to set Northwestern receiving records.
