Week 1 Players of the week
I know there are still 3 games left in the week but if I wait til Tuesday I'll likely forget. Here post your 5 best performances of the week
5. Eric Decker WR Minnesota 9 catches 183 yards
Granted it was against Syracuse but Decker just proved to me that he's not just a possession WR. I think it'd be interesting to see what kind of production this guy could have with a better quarterback.
4. Rahim Moore S UCLA 3 Interceptions
Maybe slightly biased because I watched the game but anytime a player can pick off 3 passes it's one hell of a game.
3. Ralph Bolden RB Purdue 21 carries 234 yards 2 TDs
11+ yards per carry. I don't care that it was against Toledo, that's still impressive for the Sophomore.
2. Tate Forcier QB Michigan 13-20 179 yards 3 TDs
Probably the best debut in the nation for any player. Denard Robinson better start making some big plays because Forcier looks like he might take sole control of the quarterback job soon.
1a and 1b. Jimmy Clausen QB and Michael Floyd WR Notre Dame
Clausen- 15-18 315 yards 4 TDs
Floyd- 4 catches 189 yards 3 TDs
Looks like the extra work these guys put in together this summer is paying off. From what I saw, Clausen has able to make every throw and in my opinion has a shot at the Heisman if he keeps it up. Of course that will all depend on Floyd who might be the best Sophomore WR in the country not named Julio.

Dishonorable mention of the week goes to Oklahoma RT Cory Brandon who had 3 false starts and 2 holding penalties in the BYU game.

Oh ****.. I just seen what he did and I didn't bother to look at the score because I thought if your WR is getting 350+ yards receiving.. you had to have won. lol

Well he in my pot I said he had 2 TDs, I meant 1 was rushing and 1 was receiving :p. Either way he is a beast.

Ingram, D. Bryant/Z. Robinson and Crompton all deserve honourable mentions.

Best performances would probably be:
Claussen-has a trio of pro type receivers (Tate,Floyd, Rudolph) but he had to get them the ball and he did. Will be tested i think at Michigan
Patrick Peterson, LSU DB. would kill to have a couple of guys like this in Seattle. Take your pick their secondary is for real.
Blaine Gabbert, QB Missouri. What a start for the sophomore. Reminds me of a Sam Bradford and have to say better at a similar stage. Looks like a definite 1st rounder.
On the flip side in the games i watched i was a little dissapointed in some big name players:
Rolando McClain, Alabama
Trent Williams, Oklahoma
Terence Cody,Alabama (did he even play)

How about the Air Force offense. They won 72-0 and 6 different guys scored TD's, with 2 guys scoring multiple TD's.

No order...
---Mark Ingram RB Bama
---Jimmy Clausen QB Notre Dame
---Trent Williams OT Oklahoma---Team may have lost, but he owned nearly every defender that he touched.
---Ralph Bolden RB Purdue

The first 3 are great but come on, Moeaki? they beat a fcs team by 1. Pitta from Byu had the same amount of yards on 3 less catches and he made some huge catches on the game winning touchdown drive. Even Cody Slate from Marshall is a better choice with 9 catches 114 yards and 2 scores

Darryl Clark had 353 passing yards which is encouraging since this is his first game post big 3.

before last night i regretted not having Bryant over Toliver. because it came down to who do we want more Toliver or Dez Bryant, both wanted to be here. after last night Toliver might be the quickest 6'4 guy i've ever seen in CFB.

He killed us. Burned the same guy twice. Nick Holt looked like he was going to blow a gasket on the sideline.

Jonathan Crompton should get a little love. Completed 75% of his passes, 5 TDs, 237 yards of offense. Granted he did have 2 picks, but one wasn't really his fault. Not to mention his number one WR is a true freshman.

Perrish Cox had a 73 yard KO return to go along with his 4 passes defended and did a great job of covering AJ Green all day.

Yeah, he stood out to me as well. Probably shooting up scout's boards as we speak.
