Lulay Earns Big Sky Honor
10/18/2004 12:00:00 AM | Football
For the third time in his career, Bobcat quarterback Travis Lulay has earned Big Sky Conference Offensive Player of the Week honors.
The Big Sky honored Lulay for his performance in MSU's 31-24 overtime victory over Portland State. The 6-3, 205 lb junior from Stayton, Ore., threw for a career-high 375 yards on 27-for-56 passing against the Vikings, and led MSU back from a 21-10 fourth-quarter deficit to tie the game and send it to overtime. He did so by engineering an 82-yard drive in the last 1:55 of the fourth quarter to tie the game, then led MSU to a score on the team's first overtime possession for the victory. He shares Big Sky Athlete of the Week honors with Defensive honoree Shane McIntyre of Montana and NAU kicker/punter Paul Ernster.
Since Lulay became Montana State's starting quarterback mid-way through his freshman campaign, Lulay has won 16 games, the fourth-best total in school history. Of those wins, seven have been the come-from-behind variety, four on MSU's final possession of the game.
Also on Monday, Lulay was named a I-AA.org Weekly All-Star. It was his first such honor. In the USA Today/ESPN Coaches Poll, MSU moved from 25th to 23rd. The Bobcats landed just outside The Sports Network top 25 at 26th.
