BCS Buster Players of the Week - Week 12

Earlier in the season it was Tulsa putting up 70 points in a game, but last Saturday it was Houston that turned the trick as their sophomore quarterback led them to a 70-30 win over the Golden Hurricane. Keenum, who has thrown for over 300 yards in every game this season, aired it out for 402 yards and six touchdowns and added 43 yards on the ground, including a touchdown run.
