CHARLESTON, S.C.—Sophomore Jarek Broussard was one of 42 players named to the College Football Performance Awards National Performer of the Year Watch List, the organization announced.

Broussard is the reigning Pac-12 Offensive Player of the Year and the MAYO Clinic National Comeback Player of the Year after averaging 162.6 yards rushing, leading the Pac-12 and Power 5 in rushing.

He was first-team All-Pac-12, the team's John Mack Award as Offensive MVP and won the CUSPY for Male Athlete of the Year for all sports.

In 2021, he is also on the Doak Walker Award Watch List and earned preseason First-Team All-Pac-12 by the Pac-12 media, Athlon, Lindy's College Football and Phil Steele's College Football.

Lindy's ranks him the No. 7 running back nationally and Phil Steele ranks him No. 8.

Broussard and the rest of the team are early in Fall Camp for the 2021 season, completing the second day of practice earlier Friday.
