CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Senior quarterback Jeremy Moses has received the 2010 Elite Quarterback Award announced the College Football Performance Awards Thursday afternoon. The honor comes a week after Moses was named the 2010 Walter Payton Award winner, the FCS' version of the Heisman Trophy.
A two-time Southland Conference Player of the Year, and the 2010 SLC Offensive Player of the Year, Moses guided SFA to a 9-3 record and it's second consecutive conference title. Moses guided the Lumberjacks through a historical season that was capped by a return trip to the NCAA FCS Playoffs.
Moses was the catalyst for the nation's most prolific passing offense each of the past two seasons. The Lumberjacks led the country, averaging better than 360 yards per game, and were also ranked among the nation's top six in scoring offense and total offense this past season.
Moses has ranked at or near the top in the country in nearly every statistical category in each of the past three seasons. A 2009 Walter Payton Award finalist, Moses led the nation in completions and passing yards, finished second in total offense and sixth overall in points responsible for.
Moses entered his final season as the school's all-time leading passer, and owned all the conference career marks by the midway point of the 2010 season. Moses closed out his career as one of the NCAA's all-time greatest quarterbacks setting an NCAA FCS career record for completions (1,184) and finishing among the FCS all-time top 10 in total offense (13,201), passing yards (13,401) and touchdown passes (121). Those numbers also place him among the NCAA's top 25, regardless of division, in all four categories.
