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.

“There are no small roles only small actors.” Some attribute  this wisdom to William Shakespeare. Of course, others will argue Christopher Marlowe must be responsible, but we will leave that for another discussion. Either way, this cliche works well when describing the efforts of Cincinnati Bearcat quarterback, Zach Collaros.

When Bearcat starter, Tony Pike, went down with an arm injury against South Florida, Collaros took his place. . All the second stringer has done is lead the Bearcats to three wins and his effort in this past weekend’s victory over UConn earns Collaros my POTW.

Collaros completed 29 of 37 passes for for 480 yards and one touchdown as the Bearcats downed UConn 47-45.  The sophomore form Steubenville, Ohio also rushed the ball 13 times for 75 yards and two touchdowns.

Since taking over the duties as signal caller, Collaros has completed 76 of 100 passes for 1,229 yards, 10 touchdowns, one interception and a passer rating of 210.

The Bearcats now find themselves un-welcomed guests in the BCS party mix. Coach Brian Kelly will need to make a decision. Pike is ready to return. Collaros has the hot hand.

Who gets your POTW?
