| MICHAEL VICK -- VIRGINIA TECH |
| |  | |
| Vick |
Breaking it down: Not a great week to take off, as a couple of his peers enjoyed outstanding days on the field. Should be interesting to see if he can maintain his top spot in this week's ESPN.com poll. Voters flipped for him last week. Takes his show on the road to Boston College next week.
Saturday's Performance: Bye
Season Statistics
Passing: 26 of 44, 412 yards; 4TDs, 1 INT
Rushing: 25 carries, 219 yards; 3 TDs

| CHRIS WEINKE -- FLORIDA STATE |
| |  | |
| Weinke |
Breaking it down: So much for perfection. Weinke threw his first three interceptions of the season, but did offset his turnovers with two TDs. And yes, he too ran for a score -- his first of the season. Not a great day, but one that shouldn't hurt him in the long Heisman campaign trail.
Saturday's Performance: Beat Louisville, 31-0
Passing: 19 of 30, 221 yards; 1 TD, 3 INTs
Season Statistics
Passing: 88 of 140, 1,244 yards; 9 TDs, 3 INT

| ERIC CROUCH -- NEBRASKA |
| |  | |
| Crouch |
Breaking it down: OK, so now we should expect Weinke to run for five TDs? Saturday's arial attack was something new from Crouch. The early-season numbers prove what we already knew ... the kid's versatile.
Saturday's Performance: Beat Iowa, 42-13
Passing: 10 of 13, 159 yards; 5 TDs, 0 INT
Rushing: 12 carries, 93 yards
Season Statistics
Passing: 21 of 38, 329 yards; 6 TD, 3 INTs
Rushing: 36 carries, 330 yards; 6 TDs

| LADAINIAN TOMLINSON -- TCU |
| |  | |
| Tomlinson |
Breaking it down: Somehow you'd expect more than 140 yards in a 52-3 blowout. Then again, he didn't even play three quarters.Tomlinson did get things started with a 64-yard sprint and added a second touchdown before watching the final 20 or so minutes of the game.
Saturday's Performance: Beat Arkansas State, 52-3
Rushing: 23 carries, 140 yards; 2 TDs
Season Statistics
Rushing: 86 carries, 559 yards; 7 TDs

| DREW BREES -- PURDUE |
| |  | |
| Brees |
Breaking it down: If Crouch can throw 5 TDs, why can't Brees run for a career-high 88 yards and a TD? Broke another handful of team and Big Ten records in throwing for 409 yards. Still needs 3,169 yards on the ground to break Mike Alstott's school mark of 3,635.
Saturday's Performance: Beat Minnesota, 38-24
Passing: 33 of 49, 409 yards; 2 TDs, 0 INT
Season Statistics
Passing: 103 of 159, 1,363 yards; 9 TDs, 2 INTs

| DESHAUN FOSTER -- UCLA |
| |  | |
| Foster |
Breaking it down: A longshot to win the Heisman before Saturday, this trip to Eugene surely won't help sway voters come November. But without a UCLA passing game to keep Oregon honest, Foster was facing a flock of Ducks at the line of scrimmage each time he touched the ball.
Saturday's Performance: Lost to Oregon, 29-10
Rushing: 19 carries, 49 yards
Season Statistics
Rushing: 114 carries, 471 yards; 6 TDs
