USU Football’s Savon Scarver, David Woodward, Named To Group of 5 Preseason Starting Lineup

LOGAN, Utah-Late Thursday, Utah State junior receiver/kick returner Savon Scarver and junior linebacker David Woodward have both been named to the 2019 College Football America Yearbook Group of 5 preseason starting lineup.

This “mid-major” starting lineup consists of student-athletes from all FBS conferences that are not considered “Power 5.”

Furthermore, on the Group of 5 “Dream Team,” Scarver was named as a first-teamer and Woodward as a reserve.

Scarver was named as only the third consensus All-American in school history in 2018 as he averaged 33.7 yards per kick return. The speedster from Las Vegas has three career kickoff returns for touchdowns.

Woodward earned first-team All-American honors from Pro Football Focus and third-team All-American honors from The Associated Press in 2018.

He started all 13 games for the Aggies last season, amassing 134 tackles, 5 sacks and 12.5 tackles for a loss.
