STILLWATER, Okla. - A pair of Oklahoma State football players received honors after their efforts in the Cowboys' 33-17 win over Missouri on Saturday.
Wide receiver Hubert Anyiam is this week's Big 12 co-offensive player of the week after making 10 catches for 119 yards and a touchdown, the conference office announced today. He shares the recognition with Colorado tailback Rodney Stewart and is the third different Cowboy to receive Big 12 honors this year, as both Dez Bryant (Sept. 8) and Perrish Cox (Sept. 14) were recognized as Big 12 special teams players of the week.
After kicking four field goals including a career-long 51-yarder against Missouri on Saturday, Dan Bailey was honored as one of three Lou Groza Collegiate Place-Kicker Award stars of the week and was also singled out with placekicker performer of the week accolades from the College Football Performance Awards. He shared the Groza Award recognition with Florida's Caleb Sturgis and Purdue's Carson Wiggs. Both awards mark the first such honors for Bailey.
The Big 12 player of the week honor is voted on by a media panel. The Groza Award star of the week is selected by the Groza Award staff and the College Football Performance Awards recipients are selected exclusively based upon objective scientific rankings of the extent to which individual players increase the overall effectiveness of their teams.
