Eric Rivers - Catches TDRivers caught three passes for 42 yards and a touchdown against SHSU on Tuesday.

ImpactThe FIU passing game really struggled on this one, but that didn't stop Rivers from getting his number. Though he did not have over 90 receiving yards again after doing that five games in a row, 42 yards and a touchdown certainly suffices.
