BCS Busters - Players of the Week

OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK

RB Tyrell Fenroy, Louisiana-Lafayette
The NCAA’s career active rusher sets yet another mark, breaking Brian Mitchell’s 21-year old school record for rushing yards in a single game with a 297-yard performance. Making the feat even more impressive was the fact Fenroy did it on a mere 20 carries (14.9 yards per carry). His 80-yard touchdown run late in the game allowed the Ragin’ Cajuns to extend a 37-35 lead.

Honorable Mention: Gartrell Johnson, RB, Colorado St.:
191 yards, three touchdowns

LB Mike Wright, Utah
The junior played a key role in Utah’s win over OSU, registering a sack among his career-high 15 tackles. Wright knocked down two passes, one on a key third down in the fourth quarter.

Honorable Mention: Brian Lainhart, S, Kent State:
Three interceptions, eight tackles

SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK
