Louisiana Ragin' Cajun quarterback Andre Nunez is the Sun Belt Conference Offensive Player of the Week.

The news comes as no surprise after Nunez tied a school record in Saturday's 66-38 win over New Mexico State with 5 touchdown passes.

The senior from Pacoima, California completed 19 of 25 passes for 315 yards.

ESPN’s quarterback ranking system scored Nunez with a 96.8 QBR, third best in FBS among all players who played last week.

He also earned a 247.8 passer efficiency rating, second best in FBS last week.

Nunez was part of a record setting day for Louisiana's offense, as they set a school record with 759 yards.

It's the second straight week a Louisiana Ragin' Cajun has been named the SBC Offensive POW. Elijah Mitchell took home the honor last week after a 191 yard 3 touchdown rushing performance in a win at Texas State.
