It's back-to-back-to-back honors for Gage Gubrud

A day after earning national accolades, junior All-America quarterback Gage Gubrud has added a third-straight Big Sky Conference Offensive Player of the Week honor, the league office announced on Oct. 2.

It’s the sixth time in school history he’s won the honor, and Gubrud becomes the first Eagle to win it three consecutive weeks. Gubrud joins the likes of Travis Lulay of Montana State and Doug Nussmeier and John Friesz of Idaho as other players in league history to garner the award three times in a row.

On Sunday, Gubrud was selected as the College Sports Madness Offensive Player of the Week in the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision after accounting for 486 yards and six touchdowns in a 52-31 victory over Sacramento State on Saturday (Sept. 30). He was also CSN’s Big Sky Conference Offensive Player of the Week, and received honorable mention for STATS FCS Offensive Player of the Week for the third-straight week.

Gubrud completed 35-of-50 passes as he finished with 447 passing yards and five touchdowns – his third-straight game with at least 399. It was the 14th 300-yard performance of Gubrud’s 22-game Eastern career and his eighth of at least 400.
