After an electrifying performance on Saturday night, it’s only right that Erik Ezukanma is the offensive player of the week! Racking up 179 yards on 7 catches, EZ managed to singlehandedly dominate the Houston defensive backfield. The Cougars didn’t do much of anything to try and take him out of the game plan as they were constantly leaving guys in single coverage against him.
Most of his production came on three huge plays, with two of them being off of screens where he turned what should’ve been short gains into massive plays for Texas Tech. 75 of is 179 yards came after the catch, which is crazy given his size advantage that he already possesses.
