Another week of great sports action, and so many great performances with which to choose. Step right up readers and give us the one (1), uno, une performance that stands out for you this past week.

I must be stuck in a giving-credit-where-credit-is-due rut, but USC’s Anthony McCoy grabs my POTW.

It’s not that the Trojan tight end made five catches that earns my POTW. It’s not the 153 yards he gained. Although, 30 yards per catch is pretty impressive – especially for a tight end.  It’s not the 60 yard rumble the Fresno, California native had. McCoy didn’t even cross the goal line in South Bend.

All those stats are fine, but it’s how the senior did it that earns my POTW.  At 6’5″ and 250 pounds McCoy looked like he was playing a game of piggy back  with ND defensive backs, and that earns my POTW.

Who gets your POTW?
