2. Corey Lewis, Northern Iowa, 6-0, 197, Senior

Lewis became the perfect compliment to the passing of Payton Award runner-up Eric Sanders last year and the result was 12 consecutive wins for the Panthers. This speedster excels at picking his way through holes and turning on the jets when he gets an opening. Lewis rolled for 1,513 yards and 16 TDs, but was often on the bench in the fourth quarter as UNI dismantled opponents. He also was dangerous out of the backfield with 54 catches for 11.9 yards per catch. With UNI breaking in a new QB, Lewis figures to get even more opportunity to thrive this season.

Yeah, it's just one man's opinion, but Coulson is pretty respectable when it comes to his FCS knowledge. High praise for Lewis going into the season. Good to see him get some recognition. As brilliant as he has always been, he has been overshadowed by others on the team (especially Sanders) throughout his career.

If we have a good year, if Grace and the O-Line are hitting on all cylinders from the very beginning of the season, Corey should be right up there with the finalists for the Payton award at the end of the year.

Of course they would post a new article overnight and change the link on me. I edited it in the first message so it should be right now. Thanks for catching it, Matt.

ILL ST number 7 running attack in the nation? The rest of the article looks reasonable, but that looks crazy.
