Reed first Bull to earn conference honor
J.R. Reed became the first USF football player to be named Conference USA Player of the Week. Reed was given the accolade Monday for his performance Friday against Cincinnati.
The senior free safety set school records with 19 tackles and his 14 career interceptions. Reed picked off a pass from Cincinnati quarterback Gino Guidugli in the first quarter to halt a seven-play drive. It was Reed’s third interception of the season, and second in as many games.
USF won the game 24-17 in double overtime keeping alive hopes of a postseason berth. The team must win its final three games in order to become bowl eligible. The Bulls picked off two Guidugli passes, and Lee Roy Selmon Jr. sealed the victory by intercepting the other in the second overtime.
