A big win means some big awards!
After Mizzou’s huge 30-27 win over then No. 15 Kansas State on Saturday to improve to 3-0 on the season, multiple Tigers have won Player of the Week awards from their performances.
Starting off with the conference weekly awards, and to no one’s surprise — Harrison Mevis has been named SEC Specialist of the Week.
Was there ever any doubt?? @kickerhmevis6 on being named @SEC Specialist of the week‼️#MIZ | #STP pic.twitter.com/nM7PaC2diF

According to MUTigers.com, Mevis has made 66 career field goals (so far) in his Mizzou career, which ties Andrew Baggett for a program record.
Mizzou was recognized nationally as well. QB1 Brady Cook was one of eight quarterbacks in the country to win the Manning Award’s Star of the Week:
