His numbers are eye-popping, but the numbers that mean most to senior Cooper Kupp are 5-1 and 10-1.
 
Those are the win-loss records for Eastern Washington University's football team over Montana and collectively against UM and Montana State since he arrived on campus in 2012. With three touchdowns receiving and a 54-yard pass to set-up another score, he helped guide Eastern to a 35-16 victory over the Griz last Saturday (Oct. 29) to earn Big Sky Conference Player of the Week honors from the league office as well as College Sports Madness.
 
In five games versus the Montana Grizzlies, Kupp has had 50 touches against the Griz, resulting in an average of 16.8 yards, eight touchdowns and one 54-yard play down to the Montana 2-yard line. And best of all, he's been a part of five victories in six games versus Montana since his redshirt season in 2012.
 
The reigning FCS Offensive Player of the Year had more than 100 yards receiving for the 28th time in his 46-game Eastern career, finishing with eight for 140. Besides his 69-yard touchdown, he also had TD receptions of 5 and 40 yards, giving him 33 plays of at least 40 yards in his career. He has scored in 38 of 46 games in his career, and has averaged a touchdown every 5.6 catches as an Eagle.
 
"His biggest attribute is his consistency, and that he continues to find ways to produce when everybody's eyes are on him," said head coach Beau Baldwin, whose third-ranked Eagles play at 14th-ranked Cal Poly this week. "But he'll be the first to tell you it's easy to be get open and find success when he's playing around a lot of other great players. Whenever that moment is there, he makes a play. That's why he has such huge numbers over the years – he doesn't miss an opportunity. And the reason he doesn't miss those opportunities is that he prepares to such a level that when an opportunity presents itself, he gets it done time after time after time. Plus, he has the guts and the toughness not to be worried about any moment – he just goes out and gets it done."
 
He now has career totals of 45 catches for 660 yards and six touchdowns in five games against the Griz, as well as a punt return for a TD and a passing score. He is 2-of-2 passing versus the Griz, including a 54-yard pass to sophomore quarterback Gage Gubrud that set-up a score in the 2016 meeting and a 21-yard touchdown pass to Kendrick Bourne in 2015. He has had three punt returns for 103 yards and an average of 34.3 yards per return. Thus, his total on 50 touches against UM is 838 yards for an average of 16.8 per touch.
 
He went over the 1,000-yard mark for the fourth time in his career, with only 13 other performances with at least that amount in school history. Kupp has 1,006 yards and 67 catches for the season in just seven games played, already ranking 17th and 15th, respectively, in school history. Despite missing 1 1/2 games with a shoulder injury, he leads the NCAA Football Championship Subdivision in receiving yards per game (143.7) and receptions per game (9.6), and is third in receiving touchdowns (11).

The 2012 graduate of Davis High School in Yakiima, Wash., has broken 12 FCS records, eight Big Sky Conference all-time marks and 21 school records. Next up is a big one.
 
Already the owner of FCS career records with 67 receiving touchdowns and 5,770 yards, he has 378 receptions and is now just 17 catches behind the record of 395 set by Elon's Terrell Hudgins from 2006-09. At his current season pace of 9.4 receptions per game, he'll break the record on Senior Day versus Idaho State on Nov. 12. He is just nine grabs away from the FBS record of 387.
 
He broke a 12th FCS all-time mark on Oct. 29 versus Montana when he caught a pass in his 46th-straight game. Jacksonville State's Josh Barge also has a current total of 46 in a row, and he and Kupp passed the record of 45 originally set by Marcus Lee of Towson (2005-08), then tied by current EWU wide receivers coach Nicholas Edwards (2009-12) and Tyrone Walker from Illinois State from (2009-12). Current Eagle Kendrick Bourne has a current 33-game streak, and other long streaks by former Eagles include Eric Kimble (44 from 2002-05), Aaron Boyce (42 from 2006-09) and Ashton Clark (36 from 2011-13). Boyce could have had a streak of 46, but he tore his Achilles in 2009 with four regular season games left to play.
 
Kupp and Bourne have also combined for FCS records for combined career catches (564) and combined career yards (8,514). In addition, Kupp's 125.4 average reception yards per game is currently a FCS career record, while his other six FCS records were set during his freshman season.
