Not the normal guys who always show something, but guys that impressed unexpectedly.

1. Raider Damuni - had probably his best game as a Cougar.
2. Tanner Wall - looked much more confident, and his tackling was much improved.
3. Bruce Mitchell - looked very dominant, especially in run blocking.
4. Siale Esera - he needs to be a rush end.
5. Ryner Swanson - maybe his best game
6. Pokalaua Haunga - great job with limited reps
7. Kevin Doe - I kept saying, "who is number 31?" He made some great blocks on special teams. He made the key block on Kingston's punt return for a TD.
8. Tommy Prassas - His tackling was much better. The safeties were much better in this game. Those extra practices leading up to a bowl game really help.
