Junior receiver Shakim Phillips was one of nine receivers to earn honorable mention recognition in the weekly College Football Performance Awards.

Phillips had 10 catches for 178 yards including a 75-yard touchdown giving him 15 catches for 255 yards and three TDs in the first two games.

Phillips' 178 receiving yards are the most for a Husky since UConn became a FBS program and ranks ninth in program history. The bad news is that Phillips pulled up at the end of the touchdown catch and suffered a hamstring injury. His status for Saturday's game against Michigan is not known at the current time.

Mike Evans of Texas A&M was the CFPA's Receiver of the Week after catching seven passes for 279 yards in a 49-42 loss to top-ranked Alabama.
