Both Freds

You could include either Fred Brown or Fred Ross, so I’m just going to include them both on this part of the post. They both played great and it is hard to value one performance over the other.

Fred Brown only had 4 catches, but they were all huge catches. He had 58 yards on the day and was second in receiving yards for the Bulldogs on the night.

Fred Ross had a lot more catches, and helped move the chains. He didn’t average a lot of yards per reception, but they were always productive receptions.

One of the biggest areas the Bulldogs needed someone to step up was for Dak Prescott to find a second receiver so defenses couldn’t load up on De’Runnya Wilson. Both Fred have stepped up to the plate.
