Newton was named first-team All-Big 12 in 2022 and second-team All-Big 12 in 2023. He finished his career with 152 tackles, 8 TFLs, 7 INTs and 36 PBUs.

In 2022, Newton had 491 coverage snaps and was targeted on 61 pass attempts, allowing only 21 completions (34.4 percent) for 321 yards and five touchdowns with three interceptions and had 10 PBUs. He played from press alignment on only 162 of his 491 coverage snaps (33 percent of his snaps). Newton played more zone coverage than man (57 percent zone and 43 percent man).

In 2023, Newton had 389 coverage snaps, and he was targeted on 44 pass attempts, allowing 16 completions (36.4 percent) for 213 yards and one touchdown. He also recorded one interception and 14 PBUs (tied for fourth in the nation in PBUs).

Those are some decent numbers. I need to watch him this week.
