Louisiana's Ragin' Cajuns junior kicker Tyler Albrecht was named the Sun Belt Conference Special Teams Player of the Week, as announced by the conference office on Monday.

This is the second time this season Albrecht has won the award, as he was named the SBC Special Teams Player of the Week on Sept. 14 after making his first career field goal attempt - a 48-yarder - to defeat Big XII-member Kansas State.

Kicking in temperatures in the mid-40's, Albrecht scored 12 points on a perfect 3-for-3 effort on both field goals and extra points. He nailed a 49-yard field goal and a pair of 25-yard kicks.

For the season, Albrecht is 6-of-7 on field goal attempts. He is the only kicker in the Sun Belt Conference to make four field goals of 40+ yards. His only miss this season is from 50 yards.
