All-America Honors Roll In For Hubbard
December 16, 2019 | Cowboy Football
STILLWATER – Oklahoma State running back Chuba Hubbard earned a spot on the 2019 Associated Press All-America first team, it was announced today.
He was also named today as an All-American by ESPN. To date, Hubbard's 2019 All-America list includes recognition from Walter Camp, the Associated Press, ESPN, USA Today and Sports Illustrated, among others.
Hubbard's honor marks the 11th time an OSU running back has earned All-America status from the AP, adding to a list that includes Bob Fenimore (1944 and 1945), Terry Miller (1976 and 1977), Ernest Anderson (1982), Thurman Thomas (1985 and 1987), Barry Sanders (1988), Gerald Hudson (1990) and Kendall Hunter (2010).
Hubbard's All-America recognition in 2019 marks the 23rd time an Oklahoma State football player has earned a spot on one of the recognized All-America teams since 2008.
A native of Sherwood Park, Alberta, Canada, Hubbard was voted as Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year by the league's coaches and by the AP. He leads the Football Bowl Subdivision in nearly every statistical rushing category, including rushing yards, rushing yards per game, all-purpose yards, all-purpose yards per game, yards after contact (via Pro Football Focus) and more. His average of 161.3 yards per game is 14.5 yards per game better than second-place Jonathan Taylor of Wisconsin.
His 1,936 rushing yards are the second-most in a single season at Oklahoma State and the most since Sanders' NCAA-record total of 2,850 yards in 1988. Should he finish as the FBS rushing champion, he'd become the fifth Oklahoma State player to accomplish that feat, joining Fenimore (1945), Anderson (1982), Sanders (1988) and Gerald Hudson (1990).
With the Academy Sports + Outdoors Texas Bowl remaining on the schedule, Hubbard is on pace to finish with 2,097 rushing yards, which would rank 18th in FBS history and third in Big 12 Conference history. Since 2000, only seven Power Five conference players have rushed for more than 2,100 yards in a season and done so averaging more than Hubbard's current mark of 161.3 yards per game.
