Philadelphia, PA (SportsNetwork.com) - With the college football season in its November stretch run, some of the better freshman players in the FCS are making important contributions to their teams that prove well beyond their years. Southern University quarterback Austin Howard and Butler University running back Sam Schrader have both made such high marks that they were named to the Jerry Rice Award Watch List on Tuesday. The Rice Award, now in its fourth season, and named for the legendary wide receiver who played in the FCS (then Division I-AA) at Mississippi Valley State, honors the nations top first-year player, whether a true freshman or a redshirt freshman.

Schrader is coming off 162 yards and four touchdowns on the ground in a win over Morehead State. His 561 rushing yards rank fifth among all FCS freshmen and his 11 total touchdowns rank third.
