Hubbard Secures Consensus All-America Status
December 17, 2019 | Cowboy Football
STILLWATER – Oklahoma State running back Chuba Hubbard secured his status as a 2019 consensus All-American today after The Sporting News announced him as a member of its first-team squad.
To earn consensus All-America status, a player must be honored by at least three of the five recognized All-America teams – the American Football Coaches Association, the Associated Press, the Football Writers Association of America, The Sporting News and the Walter Camp Football Foundation. Hubbard has already been recognized as a first-team honoree by both the Associated Press and Walter Camp, so today's honor from The Sporting News locks his consensus All-America status.
Hubbard is the 20th consensus All-America selection from Oklahoma State and the ninth Cowboy to earn that distinction since 2008. He joins Bob Fenimore (1945), Terry Miller (1977), Thurman Thomas (1985), Barry Sanders (1988) and Kendall Hunter (2010) among OSU's consensus All-America running backs.
If Hubbard is honored by the AFCA and by the FWAA when their teams are announced, then he will become OSU's 10th unanimous All-American.
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), Ernest 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.
