big 12 player of the week

KansasHusker

All-Conference
We had some very good performances this last game vs. colorado...I am wondering if Taylor with 392 passing yards and 2 touchdowns or Ross with 142 total yards and a touchdown would make the offensive big XII player of the week...thoughts?

 
I'd have to say Zac Taylor would be on the top of that short list for this week along with Adrian Peterson.

Taylor probably would have been offensive Player, but Petersen's performance last night knocked him out.....

 
yeah i think that Adrian Peterson will get the nod, he did have 249 yards rushing on 24 carries (10 yards per carry average)

had Zac had 400 yards passing then i think he would have gotten it but who knows, NU was playing sCUm (Big 12 North Champ), and OU played OSU (Big 12 South bottom feeder) so who knows

 
If they had a Block Of The Week Award it would go to Porkchop for lighting up a blitzing Buff Linebacker allowing Zac Taylor to throw a touchdown pass to standout freshman Wide Receiver Nate Swift.

 
released today...

Nov. 28, 2005

DALLAS-Adrian Peterson (Oklahoma), Michael Huff (Texas) and Scott Webb (Kansas) have been named SBC Big 12 Conference Football Players of the Week as selected by a media panel. This is the fourth career, and first this season, Offensive Player of the Week for Peterson, while Huff and Webb earn their initial Defensive and Special Teams honors, respectively.

Offensive Player of the Week

Adrian Peterson, So, RB, Oklahoma (Palestine, Texas)

Adrian Peterson ran for 237 yards and two touchdowns in Oklahoma's 42-14 win over Oklahoma State. Peterson reached paydirt on runs of 84 (career long) and 71 yards. He broke Billy Sims record (206 yards vs. Missouri in 1979), with a 210-yard second half performance, ranking as the best single-half rushing performance in OU history.

Defensive Player of the Week

Michael Huff, Sr, DB, Texas (Irving, Texas)

Michael Huff registered 10 tackles, four solo stops, five tackles for loss, one sack, a pass breakup, and caused a fumble as the Longhorns downed Texas A&M 40-29.
