BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Quarterbacks Aaron Murray and Tyler Bray are co-Southeastern Conference offensive players of the week.

Murray passed for 384 yards and four touchdowns to lead Georgia over Mississippi. Bray led Tennessee past Troy with 530 yards and five touchdowns.

Vanderbilt kicker Carey Spear received special teams honors after making two field goals against Kentucky.

LSU's La'el Collins and Vandy's Wesley Johnson shared the offensive line award. Arkansas end Chris Smith and Florida tackle Sharrif Floyd are co-defensive players of the week while Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel claimed freshman honors.
