Each week, Yardbarker spotlights college football stars, some of whom will be playing on NFL Sundays. With that in mind, here are our Week 9 standouts.
Indiana should love Becker even more now.
In the fourth quarter of a 23-16 overtime win over the Minnesota Golden Gophers, Becker corralled a 33-yard pass from backup quarterback Grant Wilson. Two plays later, kicker Paddy McAteer drilled a 60-yard field goal, sending the game into overtime. On the first play of OT, Becker stepped up again and caught a 25-yard touchdown pass. The Golden Gophers turned it over on downs on the ensuing possession.
Becker finished with eight receptions for 149 yards and one TD catch. Remember Wilson replaced starting QB Josh Hoover at halftime after he exited because of a right shoulder injury. Flourishing without his starting QB is another reason many scouts are convinced the WR could be a top-10 pick in the 2027 NFL Draft (scheduled for April 29-May 1 in Washington).
