Brandon High Jr. - Scores TD SaturdayHigh recorded eight rushes for 25 yards and one touchdown and caught their only target for eight yards during Saturday's 44-36 win over Memphis.

ImpactHigh scored his fourth rushing touchdown of the season Saturday, a two-yard rush in the fourth quarter which all but sealed the upset win. He was one of three running backs to receive at least eight carries, further confirming how split this backfield is. Although High has maintained some decent production, he's hard to rely on given he's splitting carries with two other backs.

Houston Thomas - Scores two TDs SaturdayThomas reeled in all six targets for 44 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 44-36 win over Memphis.

ImpactThomas had another highly productive performance, this time due to his two touchdown catches. He caught a nine-yard touchdown in the first quarter, and then an eight-yard touchdown in the third. He has been productive for four straight games, and specifically through his last two appearances. With Oscar Cardenas (knee) ruled out for the rest of the season, Thomas is not just the Roadrunners' No. 1 tight end, he may also be the No. 1 option in the passing game.

Dan Dishman - Catches TD SaturdayDishman reeled in 3 of 4 targets for 55 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 44-36 victory against Memphis.

ImpactDishman caught a five-yard touchdown in the first quarter Saturday, his second touchdown of the season, both of which have come in his last two games. He has seen a significant uptick in playing time and production across the last two games with Oscar Cardenas (knee) now out for the season. He still likely does not have enough usage to be a viable option, but he's still worth keeping an eye on.

Owen McCown - Four TDs in shock win over MemphisMcCown completed 20 of 37 passes for 280 yards and four touchdowns during Saturday's 44-36 victory versus Memphis. He also had five rushes for 28 yards.

ImpactMcCown put together an excellent performance Saturday as he lead the Roadrunners to the upset win over Memphis. McCown tossed four touchdown passes in his second straight game and did not commit a turnover for the sixth time this season. It was an especially impressive performance given his top two receivers -- Devin McCuin (undisclosed) and Willie McCoy (undisclosed) -- were out.

Koby Drake - Catches TD SaturdayDrake logged five receptions (on eight targets) for 63 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 44-36 loss versus Texas-San Antonio.

ImpactDrake had a productive day Saturday, highlighted by his 24-yard touchdown catch near the end of the fourth quarter, his first touchdown of the season. He also caught five passes for the third time this season and his eight targets were the second most he's seen in a game this campaign. He still sits firmly behind Roc Taylor and Demeer Blankumsee (undisclosed) in terms of production, but Drake has still shown an ability to put up strong performances.

Roc Taylor - High volume in lossTaylor hauled in 8 of 14 targets for 111 yards during Saturday's 44-36 defeat versus Texas-San Antonio.

ImpactTaylor set season highs across the board Saturday, putting up season bests in receptions, targets and yards. He had double digit targets for the fifth time in his last six games and he has also caught at least six passes five times over that stretch. Taylor has been very consistent this season and although he only has two touchdowns through nine games, he's a reliable option every week.

Demeer Blankumsee - Productive prior to exitBlankumsee (undisclosed) logged six receptions (on eight targets) for 142 yards and two touchdowns during Saturday's 44-36 defeat against Texas-San Antonio.

ImpactBlankumsee had easily his best performance of the season Saturday despite leaving the game in the first half. In the span of three minutes in the second quarter, Blankumsee caught touchdowns of 21 yards and 69 yards, helping the Tigers jump out to a 24-14 lead. While celebrating that second touchdown, he appeared to hyperextend his leg and was forced out of the game before returning for a single play later in the game. Fresh off his best performance of the season, Blankumsee's status for Friday's game versus Rice is in question, however the fact that he was able to return to the game after his injury is somewhat promising.
