JOHN ISRAEL • WR • Junior Coastal Carolina • Florence, S.C.

CHIMA UZOWIHE • DL • Junior Liberty • Houston, Texas

Israel had three receptions for 174 yards and two touchdowns in the Chanticleers’ 43-22 win over Charleston Southern. Both of his scores gave Coastal double ﬁgure leads after leading by single digits. On CCU’s ﬁrst drive and facing 3rd-and-8 on the CCU 13, Israel caught a 49-yard pass and Coastal would go on to score a TD for an early 7-0 lead. Israel’s second reception came with 1:20 left before halftime and CCU ahead by two. He caught a 74-yard touchdown to give CCU a 21-12 lead. His ﬁnal reception came on the opening drive of the second half, once again on 3rdand-8 with the Chants ahead, 21-15. Israel caught a screen pass and used two blocks and raced untouched for a 51-yard score.

Uzowihe recorded four tackles (two solo, two assisted) and tied his career-high with 2.5 sacks in Liberty’s 34-0 win over Gardner-Webb. Three of his four stops were behind the line of scrimmage, and he helped the Flames post their second shutout of the year. Uzowihe’s sacks resulted in losses of 22 yards for GWU, and he helped limit the Runnin’ Bulldogs to minus-17 net rushing yards -- the lowest total in a conference game in Big South history.

ALEX CATRON • K • Senior Coastal Carolina • Apopka, Fla.

STEPHON MASHA • QB • R-Freshman Liberty • Austell, Ga.

Catron ﬁnished with four touchbacks on his seven kickoffs against Charleston Southern, in addition to one punt for 39 yards while converting all ﬁve of his PAT attempts. He entered game with just six touchbacks for the season and had four Saturday. His lone punt was a 39-yarder that was downed on the CSU 5, and on the three kickoffs that were returned, CSU totaled just 38 yards (12.7 yards per return) and had returns of 16 yards (to the CSU 18), 8 yards (to the CSU 18) and 4 yards (to the CSU 9).

Masha rushed four times for 49 yards, was 1-of-1 passing (3 yards) and caught two passes for nine yards against Gardner-Webb. He ﬁnished the game as the Flames’ second-leading rusher with a season-high four carries for 49 yards. Masha also completed his ﬁrst passing attempt for three yards, and posted a careerhigh two receptions for nine yards.

COASTAL CAROLINA GARNERS BIG SOUTH’S HIGHEST RANKING Coastal Carolina is ranked No. 2 in this week’s FCS Coaches poll -- the school’s and Big South’s highestever ranking. The Big South has had a football squad ranked for 46 consecutive weeks, dating back to Week 9 of the 2011 campaign (Oct. 24). The Conference has had a Top 5 team in 13 of the last 18 rankings. Coastal Carolina is No. 3 in The Sports Network ranking. Meanwhile, Monmouth received votes in the Oct. 20 The Sports Network Top 25, and with the Hawks inclusion, all six Big South teams have either been ranked or received votes in one or both national polls at some point this season. CHAMPIONSHIPS ARE WON IN NOVEMBER Six-time Big South football champion Coastal Carolina is 27-8 ( =77.1) in its history in regular-season games in November. In fact, the Chanticleers are the only Big South member to win a game in November every season since 2003. In addition, six-time champ Liberty is 28-9 ( =75.7 percent) since 2002 during the month of November. BLUE MAN GROUP Presbyterian College is 4-1 against FCS opponents this season, which includes two wins over nationallyranked programs. In those ﬁve games, the Blue Hose are allowing an average of just 15.2 points (9.0 in the four wins), 1.8 touchdowns, 317.7 yards of offense and 144 rushing yards. In that same span, PC holds a +5 turnover margin and has out-scored the opposition 38-17 in the fourth quarter. FIRE PROOF Liberty held Gardner-Webb to minus-17 net rushing yards this past Saturday, the fewest allowed in a conference games in Big South history and the fourth-lowest overall. The Flames limited the Runnin’ Bulldogs to 56 yards of offense, tied for the lowest in a single-game in the League record books and the lowest in a conference contest. THE FOUR HORSEMEN Four Big South quarterbacks are averaging more than 200 passing yards per game -- Monmouth’s BRANDON HILL (278.4), Liberty’s JOSH WOODRUM (263.0), Coastal Carolina’s ALEX ROSS (234.2) and Gardner-Webb’s LUCAS BEATTY (210.8). If the quartet can maintain their respective averages, it would be the ﬁrst time in Big South history that four quarterbacks averaged 200 yards per game in the same season. The current record is three, accomplished in 2006 and 2013. THE UNDEFEATEDS Coastal Carolina is the ﬁrst team in Big South history to open the season 8-0 in back-to-back seasons, and is the third overall team to start the year 8-0. The Chanticleers join the 2006 Charleston Southern Buccaneers (9-0) and 2013 Chanticleers (9-0). Coastal Carolina is one of the four remaining undefeated FCS programs.

BIG SOUTH SETS RECORD FOR MOST FCS WINS FOR SECOND-STRAIGHT YEAR The Big South is 21-5 through 26 games against FCS opponents, extending the Conference record for most wins against non-conference FCS foes. Last season, the Big South was an all-time best 16-9 in regular-season competition and 18-10 through the postseason. The Big South has one remaining nonconference FCS games in 2014 until the Playoffs. ALL HANDS ON DECK Every football member is at or above .500 after nine weeks of the season, extending the Conference record for the fourth consecutive week. The previous best for most teams at or above .500 was four, which occurred after six weeks -- ﬁrst in 2006 (ﬁve team membership) and matched in 2013 (six teams). CAKE ROSS Coastal Carolina QB ALEX ROSS is tied for second in Big South history with eight 3-touchdown pass games -- one away from tying the Big South career record. He is eighth in the Conference record books with 44 career TD passes. Ross, who became the seventh quarterback in Big South history with 1,000 career rushing yards when he reached the milestone in Week 6 at Furman, is seventh among the League’s all-time quarterbacks with 1,086 rushing yards. Gardner-Webb’s NICK ROBERTS is sixth with 1,182. Meanwhile, Ross set a school-record with 426 yards of offense in Week 5 against Elon, tied for fourth-highest single-game total in Big South history (LUCAS BEATTY had 426 at VMI in Week 8). Ross has two career 400-yard games -- tied for second-most in League history, and nine career games with at least 300, which ranks fourth all-time. SEVENTH HEAVEN Liberty QB JOSH WOODRUM and Gardner-Webb QB LUCAS BEATTY are the joint record-holder for the most 300-yard passing games in Big South history with seven each. Woodrum ﬁrst broke the record when moved past Charleston Southern’s COLLIN DRAFTS and Beatty in Week 7. Beatty moved past Drafts with his 430-yard effort at VMI in Week 8. Woodrum has a League-high four 300-yard passing games this season, one shy of the Big South single-season mark of ﬁve established by Coastal Carolina’s TYLER THIGPEN in 2006.

HOLIDAY ROAD Coastal Carolina won its ﬁfth consecutive road game with its 40-28 win at Presbyterian in Week 7, tying the Big South record for longest road win streak. The Chants matched the record ﬁrst set by Liberty (Oct. 20, 2007 - Oct. 4, 2008) and equaled by Charleston Southern last year from Aug. 31 - Oct. 12, 2013. Coastal’s next road game is Nov. 1 at Gardner-Webb. WOODWORKING Liberty QB JOSH WOODRUM is tied for ﬁfth in League history with 45 career touchdown passes and is ﬁfth with 6,651 career passing yards. He needs ﬁve TD scoring strikes to become the fourth player with 50. Meanwhile, he has rushed for a touchdown and passed for a score in the same game nine times in his career -- including a League-high ﬁve times this season -- and the Flames are 6-3 in such contests (4-1 in 2014). Woodrum’s seven rushing TDs this year are tied for sixth in a single-season in League history, while his 13 career rushing scores rank eighth all-time. RECORD-SETTING ROAD WARRIORS The Big South has collected nine of its 21 non-conference FCS wins this season on the road -- breaking the League’s regular-season record for most non-conference road victories (8 set in 2013), and matching the overall record of nine, which includes postseason wins. Coastal Carolina has four of the nine wins. KING OF THE HILL Monmouth QB BRANDON HILL’s attempt at becoming the sole record-holder for most consecutive multi-TD passes games fell short this past Saturday at Presbyterian College, as he ﬁnished with one TD strike. Hill had tied the Big South record for most consecutive multi-TD pass games at six, as he had thrown 15 TD passes in that span. Hill is the fourth different QB to achieve the record, joining Stony Brook’s MICHAEL COULTER (2009 - 12 TDs), Liberty’s MIKE BROWN (2011 - 13 TDs) and Stony Brook’s KYLE ESSINGTON (2011-12 - 13 TDs). Hill leads the Big South with 285.50 passing yards per game and has eclipsed 200 passing yards in each contest -- including three-straight over 300 in Weeks 5-7. CAN’T FUMBLE THIS NOTE Big South football members have already returned six fumbles for touchdowns this year, setting the Big South single-season record for most fumble return scores. The previous record was four in 2002, 2004, 2007, 2009 and 2011. A record four different teams -- Charleston Southern, Coastal Carolina (2), Liberty (2), and Presbyterian -- have fumble return TDs this season. The previous best was three. WOODRUM’S THREE-PEAT Liberty QB JOSH WOODRUM threw three touchdowns in back-to-back games for the second time in his career. He is just the third quarterback in Big South history to accomplish the dual feat, joining Stony Brook’s KYLE ESSINGTON (three times) and Coastal Carolina’s TYLER THIGPEN (two). The record for most consecutive 3 TD pass games is three, set by Liberty’s MIKE BROWN from Oct. 2-16, 2010. PROTECTING THEIR HOUSE Coastal Carolina has the League’s longest active home win streak at 12, tied for the second-longest home win streak in Big South history. It also ties the Chanticleers’ record home win streak ﬁrst established from Sept. 11, 2004 - Nov. 12, 2005. The Big South record is 13 consecutive home wins, set by Stony Beook from Sept. 24, 2011 - Nov. 24, 2012. Meanwhile, Gardner-Webb’s home win streak stands at ﬁve, followed by Monmouth (3). LIBERTY COLLECTS BIG SOUTH’S FOURTH-EVER FBS WIN The Big South Conference notched its fourth-ever win over an FBS opponent with Liberty’s 55-48 overtime win at Appalachian State in Week 7. The Big South’s four wins have all come since 2010, and the Flames own two of those victories. TOP CHEFS Gardner-Webb WR KENNY COOK set the Big South single-game receiving record with 251 yards at VMI in Week 8. The old record was 240 by Liberty’s CHRIS SUMMERS against Stony Brook on Nov. 19, 2011. Gardner-Webb QB LUCAS BEATTY’s 430 passing yards against the Keydets broke the Big South singlegame record of 419, which was set by Charleston Southern’s COLLIN DRAFTS against Allen on Nov. 6, 2004. Beatty, who also tied the Big South single-game record with ﬁve TD passes, became just the second different Big South QB with 400 passing yards in a game. BASILE NAMED TO JERRY RICE AWARD WATCH LIST Monmouth freshman safety MIKE BASILE is among the initial candidates for the 2014 Jerry Rice Award, which is awarded to the top freshman player in the country. Basile is the second Big South player to be an ofﬁcial candidate for the Rice Award, joining Liberty QB JOSH WOODRUM (2012).

BIG SOUTH FOOTBALL “GAME OF THE WEEK” ON ESPN3 CONTINUES THIS SATURDAY The Big South Conference’s exclusive “Game of the Week” on ESPN3 continues this week with the Charleston Southern at Monmouth game live at 1:00pm with JASON BENETTI (play-by-play) and RENALDO WYNN (analyst) on the call from West Long Branch. The season package features eight games, which will again utilize instant replay assistance from DVSport. BIG SOUTH FOOTBALL ON AMERICAN SPORTS NETWORK RESUMES SATURDAY The Big South Conference is appearing on the new American Sports Network (ASN) the ﬁnal ﬁve weeks of the regular-season, with the next broadcast being Saturday’s Coastal Carolina at Gardner-Webb contest live from Boiling Springs at 3:30pm. EVAN LEPLER (play-by-play) and NATE ROSS (analyst) have the call. Big South football will appear on ASN six times in 2014 -- ﬁve of them between Conference members, on afﬁliates and stations owned by Sinclair Broadcast Group. The six broadcasts push the League’s overall package to a Big South-record 14 this season (12 League games). In addition, the ﬁnal ﬁve weeks of the 2014 regular-season features two televised games each week. THE HUBBARD IS NOT BARE Gardner-Webb kick returner J.J. HUBBARD returned a kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown in Week 6 against Charlotte, his third career kickoff return TD. Hubbard now shares the Big South’s all-time kickoff return record, joining Liberty’s DOMINIC BOLDEN (2005-08), Charleston Southern’s GERALD STEVENSON (2007-10) and the Flames’ KEVIN FOGG (2009-13). HE CRAN CATCH Gardner-Webb TE SETH CRANFILL is the Big South’s all-time receptions leader among tight ends with 81 catches, as he became the all-time leader in Week 5 during The Citadel game. He broke the old mark of 65 that was established by former Coastal Carolina TE DAVID DURAN (2009-12). Cranﬁll’s 772 career receiving yards are second-most among tight ends in League history behind Duran’s 910. Cranﬁll caught two touchdown passes against Wofford in Week 4, which tied the Big South single-game record for TD receptions by a tight end. INSIDE THE TACKLE BOX Coastal Carolina senior LB QUINN BACKUS is the active leading tackler in FCS with 381 career stops, which is a school record and second-most in League history. He is 19 away from becoming just the second player in Big South annals with 400. Meanwhile, Presbyterian College’s DONELLE WILLIAMS is tied for 20th with 268, while Charleston Southern’s DEMARIS FREEMAN (218) and Liberty’s NICK SIGMON (203) joined the Big South’s 200-tackle club during Week 5. Liberty’s JACOB HAGEN is two stops away from entering the list. Meanwhile, Backus and Williams are two of 11 players in Big South history to average 8.00 tackles per game in their career. Backus’ average is 8.47 (381 in 45 games) while Williams sits at 8.12 (268 in 33). PEGUES THE AREA Gardner-Webb freshman LB JEFFREY PEGUES made 20 tackles at VMI in Week 8, the ﬁrst Big South player with 20 tackles in a game since former Runnin’ Bulldog LB MARTY PATTERSON had 20 stops against Charleston Southern on Oct. 29, 2011. Pegues is the second Big South freshman with 20 tackles in a game, as GWU’s MIKE PAVELKO had a record 24 against VMI as a frosh in a triple-overtime victory on Oct. 22, 2005. PITCH-AND-CATCH COMBO Monmouth RB LAVON CHANEY became the ﬁrst non-quarterback in Big South history to throw two touchdown passes in a game in Week 7 against Columbia. Chaney’s ﬁrst TD pass was to Hawks QB BRANDON HILL -- who became the ﬁrst Big South QB with a TD reception since Liberty’s KYLE PAINTER in 2002, and the second overall. THIS IS SERGEANT PETERSON Liberty WR DARRIN PETERSON leads the Big South and is sixth in the nation with 791 receiving yards for an average of 98.9 receiving yards per game (11th nationally). Peterson is on pace to ﬁnish with 1,187 receiving yards this season, which would be the second-highest single-season total in Big South history, and behind the record of 1,388 by Stony Brook’s KEVIN NORRELL in 2012. Meanwhile, Peterson had 12 catches at Indiana State in Week 4 and 11 against Richmond in Week 5 to become the ﬁrst Big South player with back-to-back 10 reception games since Charleston Southern’s MAURICE PRICE in 2006. MOVING THE CHAINS Monmouth RB LAVON CHANEY is tops in the Big South with 153.9 all-purpose yards per game, and already has two games with 200+ yards -- tied for seventh-most in a career in League history. Chaney is looking to become the ﬁrst newcomer to lead the Conference in all-purpose yards since Stony Brook’s BROCK JACKOLSKI in 2010.

HENDERSON HOPING TO HOP TOWARDS HISTORY Coastal Carolina RB DE’ANGELO HENDERSON, who matched the school record for most rushing yards through the ﬁrst four games with 498, leads the Big South with 955 rushing yards. He has fallen behind former All-American teammate and current Baltimore Raven LORENZO TALIAFERRO’s school record pace, as Taliaferro had 1,112 yards after eight games in 2013 en route to a school-record 1,729. Below is a chart featuring Henderson, Taliaferro and Big South single-season rushing record holder MIGUEL MAYSONET after seven and eight games. Henderson is currently on pace for 1,433 rushing yards, which would be ﬁfth-most in a single-season in Big South history. Thru Game 8 9

HOME COOKED MEAL Gardner-Webb WR KENNY COOK, who missed two full games and 11 consecutive quarters earlier this season with an injury, has returned to form as he has 36 catches for 514 yards and four scores since returning to action in Week 4. Cook is eighth all-time on the Big South’s career receptions list with 162, and needs ﬁve to move into sixth. With 2,201 career receiving yards, he is seventh all-time in that category and 229 away from the sixth spot. Cook became the eighth player in the League record books with 20 career TD grabs during Week 8 and needs one to move into a tie for ﬁfth. QUADRUPLE FOR QUINN Coastal Carolina LB and Buck Buchanan Award candidate QUINN BACKUS has forced four fumbles this season, tied for second-most in a season in League history. The record is ﬁve, established by GardnerWebb’s MARIO WILLIAMS in 2003 and tied by Coastal Carolina’s D.J. RICE in 2007. Backus has a CCUrecord seven career forced fumbles, tied with Liberty’s MANNY ROJAS (2003-06) for second-most in the Conference record book. That record is eight by Williams and Gardner-Webb’s BRIAN JOHNSTON (2004-07). HIGH RATE OF RETURN Coastal is 22-1 in its last 23 games when rushing for more than 200 yards, including 6-0 this season. The Chanticleers have rushed for more than 200 yards 67 times in their history, and are 62-5 ( =92.5) when reaching the 200-yard plateau. Carolina has rushed for 200-plus yards in 24 of Head Coach JOE MOGLIA’s 36 games as CCU’s head coach, posting an 23-1 record in such games. BEATTY OR NOT, HERE HE COMES Gardner-Webb QB LUCAS BEATTY is second in Big South history with 7,297 career passing yards, 654 career completions and 1,058 attempts. Beatty ranks fourth among the active FCS career leaders in completions, as well as ﬁfth in attempts and sixth in yardage. Meanwhile, he ranks among the Big South’s all-time leaders in total offense yardage (7th - 6,996) and plays (3rd - 1,258). BLOUNT FORCE Gardner-Webb RB JUANNE BLOUNT moved into the Big South’s all-time Top 10 rushing leaders in Week 6 during the Charlotte game, and he is 10th with 2,363 career yards. The only GWU player among the Conference’s Top 10 all-time rushers, Blount is 85 yards from surpassing Stony Brook’s BROCK JACKOLSKI (2,447) for ninth-place. SOLO ARTIST Coastal Carolina senior LB QUINN BACKUS is the Big South’s all-time leader for solo tackles with 211 -- the only player in League history with 200. He broke the record during the Elon game in Week 5 with eight solo stops -- vaulting ahead of both Charleston Southern’s JADA ROSS (195) and previous record holder JUSTIN BETHEL (Presbyterian - 199) for the top spot. POINT OF ORDER Liberty owns the Big South record for most consecutive games with a point scored at 105, while the second-longest active streak belongs to Coastal Carolina (39). Meanwhile, Liberty is the Big South’s record holder for most consecutive games scoring in double ﬁgures at 49, breaking its old mark of 45 (Sept. 23, 2006 – Sept. 18, 2010) in Week 5. BLUE HOSE SWARM Presbyterian College returned two of its four interceptions for touchdowns in Week 6 against Western Carolina, tying the Big South single-game record. The Blue Hose are just the second team in League history with two INT scores in a game, matching the record ﬁrst set by Liberty at Charleston Southern on Oct. 22, 2011. PC’s four picks against WCU was its most since joining the Big South in 2008.

HAGEN HANGING 10 Liberty All-American safety JACOB HAGEN is the ninth player in Big South history with 10 career interceptions, as he reached the milestone with his game-clinching pick in the end zone against Appalachian State in Week 7. He also has 27 career passes defended (10 INT, 17 PBU), which is tied for 10th in League history as well. Meanwhile, Hagen’s 27-yard fumble return for a touchdown at North Carolina in Week 1 was his second career fumble return TD -- the ﬁrst player in Big South history to return two fumbles for scores. BIG JOHN STUD Liberty kicker JOHN LUNSFORD kicked a Big-South-record 60-yard ﬁeld goal at the end of regulation to force overtime against nationally-ranked Richmond in Week 6. The ﬁrst player in League history to attempt a ﬁeld goal from that distance, Lunsford is the ninth different kicker in FCS history to make a ﬁeld goal from 60+ yards, and the ﬁrst in 14 years. His 60-yarder matched the third-longest made in terms of distance, behind 63 (three kickers) and 62 (two). Three other kickers have converted from 60 yards. Meanwhile, Lunsford’s memorable kick gave him a Big South-record ﬁve career ﬁeld goals from 50+ yards. DEFENSIVE MINDED Presbyterian’s 7-3 win over Charleston Southern in Week 8 set the League record for lowest scoring Conference game at 10 points. The previous combined low was 17 points, set by VMI (10) and Liberty (7) on Oct. 1, 2005, and matched by Gardner-Webb (10) and VMI (7) on Nov. 20, 2010. PC held the Buccaneers to their lowest point total since a shutout loss at Illinois on Sept. 15, 2012, and limited Charleston Southern to just three points in three trips to the red zone. PC also allowed 250 yards of offense, a season-low for the Buccaneers. MONMOUTH’S MONUMENTAL PASSING Monmouth tied the Big South single-game record with six passing touchdowns in Week 7 vs. Columbia. The Hawks joined Charleston Southern (vs. North Greenville, 10-23-04) and Liberty (vs. St. Francis, Pa., 9-4-10) as the only Big South teams with six TDs passing in a game. BIG SOUTH FOOTBALL FIRST -- UNDEFEATED WEEK The Big South Conference went 6-0 during Week 3, the ﬁrst time in League history that every Conference member won its respective non-conference match-up in the same week. Four of the wins were against FCS foes -- the same total in Week 3 of the 2013 season. Five Big South members were above .500 after three games -- another League ﬁrst. ANOTHER LEAGUE FIRST -- THREE BIG SOUTH TEAMS RANKED For the ﬁrst time in Big South history, the Conference had three nationally-ranked programs in the same week, as the Sept. 22 FCS Coaches poll had Coastal Carolina at No. 3, Liberty at No. 23 and Charleston Southern at No. 25. It is the third time in League annals that three different members have been nationally-ranked in the same season. THREE-AND-OUT Coastal Carolina became the ﬁrst team in Big South history to hold three consecutive opponents to three points-or-less, as the Chanticleers limited three opponents to a ﬁeld goal each during Weeks 3-5 while outscoring the opposition, 109-9. The Chants have matched the League record for most times allowing no more than three points (three times), joining Charleston Southern (2002) and Liberty (2006, 2008). TREASURE CHEST Charleston Southern gained 617 yards of offense in Week 5 at Charlotte, its most-ever against an FCS opponent. The Bucs rushed for 333 yards against the 49ers for their second 300-yard rush game of the season and 10th during its Big South era (since 2002). CSU and Charlotte (573) combined for 1,190 yards of offense, the second-highest single-game total in League history and the most in a regularseason contest. The record is 1,212, set by Coastal Carolina (572) and Old Dominion (672) during the 2012 FCS Playoffs. RETURN TO SENDER Coastal Carolina’s DEVIN BROWN returned a kickoff 99 yards for a touchdown at North Carolina A&T in Week 2, tied for the second-longest kickoff return in League history. It was Brown’s second career kickoff return TD, and he is now one of seven players in the Big South record books with multiple kickoff return touchdowns. The record for most career kickoff return TDs is three, held by Liberty’s DOMINIC BOLDEN (2005-08), Charleston Southern’s GERALD STEVENSON (2007-10) and Liberty’s KEVIN FOGG (2009-13).

PRESBYTERIAN LATEST BIG SOUTH MEMBER WITH TWO WINS OVER RANKED TEAMS Presbyterian College defeated its second nationally-ranked opponent this season with its 7-3 victory at No. 22/23 Charleston Southern in Week 8. It is sixth time in League history that a football member recorded two wins over ranked foes in the same season. PC is the fourth different member to achieve this feat, joining Coastal Carolina (three times), Liberty and Gardner-Webb. The Blue Hose downed then-No. 12/12 Furman, 10-7, in Week 3 for their ﬁrst win over a nationally-ranked opponent since 2008 when PC downed No. 17 Liberty. Furman is now the highest-ranked team that PC has defeated at the Division I level. Presbyterian’s win over the Paladins marked the second-straight season the Big South has recorded a regular-season victory over a nationally-ranked non-conference FCS opponent, and the sixth different season overall in the Big South’s 13-year football history. LaQUA MAYES HAYES Presbyterian RB LaQUA MAYES broke through for a 92-yard touchdown run against Blueﬁeld in Week 2, establishing the record for longest rush from scrimmage in Big South football history. The previous record was 86 yards set by former Coastal Carolina FB and current Carolina Panther MIKE TOLBERT against VMI on Oct. 27, 2007. FLAMES WIN BIG SOUTH’S MOST RECENT CLASH OF THE TITANS Then No. 24-Liberty defeated then-No. 25 Bryant, 38-21, in Week 4 to improve the Big South to 7-8 all-time in games involving a ranked Big South member against a ranked non-conference opponent -- including 4-4 during the regular-season. Five of the eight losses have been by seven points-or-less. HAMMING IT UP Charleston Southern’s DARIUS HAMMOND returned a punt 74 yards for a touchdown vs. The Citadel in Week 4. It was the ﬁrst punt return TD by a Buccaneer since CHARLES JAMES did it against Wesley College on Oct. 1, 2011. Hammond’s 74-yard return is the longest in school history and is tied for ninthlongest in Big South history. ELIMINATING THE MIDDLE MAN Charleston Southern LB GABE MIDDLEBROOK returned a fumble 85 yards for a touchdown in the Buccaneers’ Week 1 win over Point. It is the fourth-longest fumble return in Big South history, and the longest in the League since Presbyterian’s BRANDON LESTON had a 91-yard fumble return against Georgia Tech in 2012. Middlebrook’s fumble return is the longest by a CSU player during the Big South’s football era (since 2002). The previous longest was a 77-yard fumble return for a TD by JADA ROSS against Gardner-Webb in 2007. FANNING THE FLAMES Liberty set a Big South single-game record for yards per play with its 16.03 average against Brevard in Week 3. The Flames gained 625 yards on just 39 offensive plays, smashing the previous record of 10.66 (Stony Brook vs. Pace - Sept. 8, 2012). Liberty averaged 12.96 yards per rush (23 for 298) against the Tornados, breaking the League single-game mark of 11.79 yards per carry that was established by Coastal Carolina in 2006 at VMI (28 for 330). ROSS, COOK ON INITIAL WALTER PAYTON AWARD WATCH LIST For the second time in Big South history, two players opened the season as ofﬁcial candidates for the Walter Payton Award, as Coastal Carolina QB ALEX ROSS and Gardner-Webb WR KENNY COOK are among the initial 20 candidates for the top individual award in FCS. In 2011, Liberty QB MIKE BROWN and Flames’ WR CHRIS SUMMERS opened the campaign among the initial candidates. RECORD THREE PLAYERS ON BUCK BUCHANAN AWARD WATCH LIST A record three Big South players are among the initial 20 candidates for the Buck Buchanan Award, which honors the top defensive player in FCS. Coastal Carolina LB QUINN BACKUS, who ﬁnished seventh in the voting last year, headlines the Big South’s trio. Joining him are Gardner-Webb DL O.J. MAU and Liberty DB JACOB HAGEN. The Big South is tied with the Big Sky Conference for the most Buchanan Award candidates. MARK YOUR CALENDARS FOR THIS ONE Coastal Carolina and Liberty will meet in the season-ﬁnale for the ﬁrst time, as their Nov. 22 match-up in Conway will mark their 12th meeting. Coastal leads the series, 6-5, and the winner of the matchup has won or shared the Big South football Championship nine times. The Chanticleers won threestraight over Liberty from 2004-06 en route to three consecutive titles (two outright, one shared). The Flames were victorious from 2007-09 while winning three-straight Big South crowns (two outright, one shared). Coastal won last season’s meeting and both teams shared the title in 2013, as well as 2010 and 2012.
