"Each week, Football Outsiders recognizes the most outstanding college linemen, defenders and other darkhorses from the previous weekend who are habitually overlooked in the hype for that other award (whatever it's called). These are the Lowsmen. 
DERRICK STROZIER • CB, Tulane Last week, Strozier returned a blocked field goal for a touchdown against North Texas, a critical play in a narrow, 24-21 win. On Saturday, he struck again on a 99-yard interception return for the Green Wave's only touchdown in regulation, a critical play in an eventual 36–33 upset of East Carolina in triple overtime. (Brace yourself: The win improved Tulane–Tulane, which is Tulane–to 5-2 for the season.) Strozier also added eight tackles (one for loss) and a pair of passes broken up, helping keep ECU out of the end zone until the final two minutes of the fourth quarter."
