SAN FRANCISCO – For the fourth time this season and the second-consecutive week, Utah senior kicker Matt Gay has been named the Pac-12 Special Teams Player of the Week.
Gay, a Lou Groza semifinalist, set the Utah record with his 21st-consecutive field goal last week at Colorado. He made kicks of 51, 33 and 31 yards in the game before missing from 56 yards under snowy conditions. He scored 12 of Utah's 30 points in a 30-7 win over the Buffs that clinched a Pac-12 South Division title.
The Orem, Utah, native ranks first in the Pac-12 and second nationally in field goals made per game (2.09) and is also first in the conference and eighth in the NCAA in total points scored (107).
His 51-yarder in the fourth quarter extended his school record for 50-plus yard field goals to seven in his career, giving him two this season.
