Texas State’s Tory Spears and Seth Keller received Sun Belt Player of the Week awards following the Bobcats’ 36-24 win over Appalachian State.
Spears was named Sun Belt Defensive Player of the Week, while Keller received the conference’s Special Teams Player of the Week accolade.
Spears returned an interception for a 94-yard touchdown and tallied a career-high 12 tackles against the Mountaineers. He became the first player at the Football Bowl Subdivision level to have 12-plus tackles and an interception returned for a touchdown in a game since September 2021 (Chad Muma, Wyoming, vs. Ball State) and first Sun Belt player to do that since 2014. He is the first player to ever turn the feat in Texas State’s FBS history.
