Barion Brown named SEC Co-Freshman of the Week again
Make it back-to-back SEC Freshman of the Week awards for Kentucky star freshman Barion Brown.
Today, the Southeastern Conference named Brown one of its two SEC Co-Freshman of the Week honorees for his outstanding performance in Oxford. The explosive wide receiver/return specialist set a new school record for single-game kickoff return yards (164) and all-purpose yards (245) by a rookie, while also catching two passes for 81 yards and averaging 47.7 yards every time he touched the football.
Here are three of his near-touchdowns:
Last week, Brown earned his first SEC Freshman of the Week award as a co-winner with Ole Miss running back Quinshon Judkins. He again shares co-Freshman honors this week with Judkins who rushed for 106 rushing yards and a score for the winning side in Oxford.
Brown also has an SEC Special Teams Player of the Week award for taking a kick to the house in the first game of his career.
