Holloway has played in all 10 games this season and made three starts. His pass breakups are third on the team. Holloway made a huge play in September, returning a blocked field goal for a touchdown. But his night was marred by a questionable play, as he shoveled a Stanford player out of bounds and was called for a personal foul. The Cardinals were allowed to try a game-winning field goal, whereas Stanford's Emmet Kenney made a career-long 52-yarder to stun the Cardinals.
