Georgia State’s Baker honored by Sun Belt
Sept 7, 2015
Georgia State safety Bobby Baker was named the Sun Belt Conference’s defensive player of the week after having five takeaways in the Panthers’ 23-20 loss to Charlotte last week.
Baker, a junior who transferred from UAB, had two interceptions and receovered three fumbles. The NCAA has been asked if the five takeaways are a record.
Baker is the first player in school history to have more than two takeaways in a game.
The Panthers will play at New Mexico State on Saturday.
