#3. Cam Camper – WR

Week 1 stats vs. Illinois: 11 receptions, 156 receiving yards

This one, for me, was a major surprise, as Camper led all receivers in receiving yards in Week 1 and had the second longest reception (40 yards) of the game. The Junior College transfer brought in the most receiving yards (156) ever in a debut game in school history.

Camper looked confident and probably had the best route running on the field as he was tearing apart a pretty experience and talented Illini secondary.
