Chris Tooly for FAU had a pick and a scoop and score.
I get it most of the old salty C-USA writers refuse to give new schools credit. They just want to gave there schools more reason to cry that they ''carry the conference.''

The bias is unbelievable

I would think it's more about the opponent that they faced.

I imagine a conference game featuring the preseason favorites in each division was given slightly more weight.

To your point about "old schools" you do realize Tech joined in 2013 and FAU joined in 2014, so we are both "new schools" to the conference.

That was Ito Smith's 1st ever CUSA Offensive player of the Week award, which is a bit surprising. But then again, there are a lot of players eligible to receive these awards every week.

Below are the POWs for last 2 weeks as well.

2017 WINNERS:
Offensive Player of the Week
Sept. 4 – Jeffery Wilson, RB, North Texas
Sept. 11 – Tyre Brady, WR, Marshall and Brent Stockstill, QB, Middle Tennessee
Sept. 18 – Ito Smith, RB, Southern Miss

Defensive Player of the Week
Sept. 4 – Dae’Von Washington, LB, Louisiana Tech
Sept. 11 – Khalil Brooks, LB, Middle Tennessee
Sept. 18 – Jaylon Ferguson, DE, Louisiana Tech

Special Teams Player of the Week
Sept. 4 – Keion Davis, KR, Marshall
Sept. 11 – Kaare Vedvik, K/P, Marshall
Sept. 18 – Jonathan Barnes, K, Louisiana Tech

Well, Ryan Bee had 10 tackles, 2 sacks, and a QB hurry from the DT position in a shutout win and Marshall is an "old school" in the conference.
