LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) – UNLV senior quarterback Jackson Arnold has earned Honorable Mention Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award National Player of the Week, organizers announced Tuesday.
Â
Arnold (Denton, Texas) threw three touchdowns en route to helping the Rebels to a 38-10 win at Akron on Saturday, which tied for the largest road win over a non-conference opponent in school history.
Â
Arnold, who transferred to UNLV from Auburn, completed 17-of-29 pass attempts for 290 yards and also rushed for 28 net yards on seven carries. Two of his scoring throws went to running back Jet Thomas (40 yards and 2 yards) for the team's first 14 points while he found Taz Reddicks on a 59-yard bomb in the third quarter.
Â
The Earl Campbell Tyler Rose Award recognizes the top offensive players in the nation who either played at and graduated from a Texas high school or is currently playing at a Division One school in the Lone Star State. Arnold starred at Denton's Guyer High School before signing with Oklahoma to begin his career.
Â
After a month away from home, head coach Dan Mullen's squad returns to action this Saturday by hosting Cal of the ACC for the first time. Single-game tickets and mini-plans for the 2026 home schedule are available now by visiting unlvtickets.com or calling (702) 739-FANS (3267).
