College Football:

Ducks wide receiver Troy Franklin was announced as a semifinalist for the Biletnikoff Award yesterday…going to the nation's most outstanding receiver. Franklin leads the Pac 12 in receiving while setting Oregon single-season records for receiving yards,  receiving touchdowns, and 100-yard receiving games. Oregon offensive coordinator Will Stein was announced a semifinalist for the 2023 Broyles Award, which goes to the top assistant coach in college football. Quarterback Bo Nix has been named the Pac-12 Offensive Player of the week for the second week in a row, and fourth time this season.  The Ducks offense remains the only team this year to score 30 or more points in every game.

Oregon State Running Back Damien Martinez was nominated for Offensive player of the week again. OSU is preparing for the 127th all-time meeting against the U of O, and perhaps the last time for awhile.
