#4. Cam Camper – WR

Week 3 stats vs. WKU: 8 receptions, 93 receiving yards, 1 TD

If not for Cam Camper in Week 1 and Week 3, the Hoosiers are not undefeated heading into Week 4. Camper was one of the biggest threats on the outside for Bazelak and the offense as they were hoping to match the talent and quickness of the Hilltoppers’ offense.

Connor Bazelak has his guys that he trusts the most, with that being Cam Camper and D.J. Matthews Jr., but is also gaining trust from Emery Simmons and Javon Swinton as well. Camper is the go-to-guy as of right now for Bazelak and he turned to him when it mattered most. On the final drive of regulation for the Hoosiers, Bazelak found Camper twice for 20 yards combined and a touchdown (below), which gave Indiana a chance to tie the game up with less than a minute to go with a 2-point conversion.

Through three games, Camper has 23 receptions for 292 receiving yards and one touchdown reception. Camper is well on his way to prove himself as an All-Big Ten wide receiver if he continues his strong play and big-playmaking abilities.
