Conference USA Championship: Smith versus Smith

Star Smiths set to battle for C-USA trophy
 
ORLANDO, Fla. -- A Smith will hold the Conference USA trophy high over his head following Saturday's league championship game.

Will it be Tulsa quarterback Paul Smith, who has already set six school records and five C-USA marks this season?

Or is it going to be University of Central Florida running back Kevin Smith, who is the NCAA's leading rusher with 2,164 yards this season?

Both Smiths were voted C-USA co-offensive players of the year by a media panel on Wednesday. Both have played in the league championship game before, when Tulsa defeated the Knights in 2005. Both have been cornerstones of magical journeys that have led to returns to the C-USA title game.

But only one player will reach his goal.
