The former walk-on saw early playing time his freshman year in 2014 and started his first game on a rainy night in Waco. Yeah, someone else got their first start that night too.
It's not hard to see why Lundblade is getting a little recognition. His starting QB finished third in the conference in passing yards and the 2015 Cowboys were seventh nationally with over 4,500 yards and 35 touchdowns in the air.
