North Alabama linebacker Marcus Dowtin (SR, 6-2, 226, Upper Marlboro, MD).

Dowtin takes home his second honor of the season, spearheading UNA’s defense in a 30-23 road triumph over Valdosta State. The senior racked up a team-best 10 total tackles behind a game-high eight solo stops. He also added two tackles for a loss of 11 yards, forced one fumble and added one quarterback hurry. The Upper Marlboro, MD native’s final sack came early in the fourth quarter and knocked VSU’s starting quarterback out of the game which hampered the Blazers’ offense the rest of the way.
