With one game to go KE is at 15.5 sacks, which is a 1/2 sack out of 1st in FCS. He also has 23 tackles for loss which is second and 2.5 out of first. Already better stats than the last two Buchanan award winners and I don't see anyone out there that has more impressive stats. A pick 6 yesterday would have really put him over the top, but that pick was still very impressive.
I will say though that I was disappointed that on the sack/fumble that we should have recovered that we had 3 defensive linemen on the QB and Kyle was not one of them. If I rewound the tape I'm pretty sure I'd find that he was on the sidelines.
