Cashius Howell has been playing out of his mind this season, recording seven sacks in five games, and of course, all of them ending up in wins.
Howell just might end up with a bunch of hardware by the end of the season, and it's pretty clear that he's going to end up in double digit sacks by the end of the season, barring some kind of catastrophe.
His offensive lineman on the other side, Trey Zuhn III has been advocating for Howell and had a chilling message for the rest of the SEC to watch out if he stays healthy.
Zuhn III says Howell 'will make you pay' if the opposing OL slack off

"Great motor, he's just always going 110 percent, and he's slippery too. If you're half a step late...he'll make you pay for it. "Trey Zuhn III
This is about as accurate as it can get. Howell's speed followed by his work ethic is hard for any offensive lineman to match. Howell has been a huge reason for the Aggies' defense forcing some awful third down plays against Auburn and Mississippi State.
Howell at 6-foot-2, 248 pounds has a great frame as someone who's big enough to go up against any lineman but fast enough to make an impact and cause havoc.
Things are starting to align for the Aggies, and all we can hope for is for Howell to stay healthy. Zuhn III is 100 percent accurate on Howell making guys pay, and the best version of Howell is for him to stay out there and keep doing what he's doing.
The former Bowling Green Falcon is truly starting to become a game wrecker, and if he keeps on this path, he should be in the conversation for SEC Defensive Player of the Year. As a conference that prides itself on top notch defensive talent, that would be quite the award for him.
