Couch a Finalist for the Walter Camp Player of the Year: University of Kentucky junior quarterback Tim Couch has been named as one of five finalists for the Player of the Year Award as given by the Walter Camp Football Foundation.

Couch has completed 321 of 444 passes for 3,446 yards and 29 touchdowns during the 1998 season. In addition to Couch, other finalists include QB Michael Bishop of Kansas State, QB Joe Germaine of Ohio State, QB Cade McNown of UCLA, and RB Ricky Williams of Texas.

Couch/Yeast Touchdown Chosen as the “Most Inspirational Play of the Week”: The touchdown pass from Tim Couch to Craig Yeast last Saturday against Mississippi State has been chosen as the “Compaq Most Inspirational Play of the Week” in college football.

With the Wildcats nursing a 30-29 lead in the fourth quarter, Kentucky had the ball with a third-and-goal situation from the Bulldogs’ six-yard line. Chased backward around the 20-yard line, Couch unleashed a rainbow throw while falling to ground. Yeast raced across the end zone to make a magnificent catch with a defender at his back. The play proved to be the game-winning touchdown in Kentucky’s 37-35 victory.
