I do my best to be objective each week, basing my picks on comparative performances and stats, but if you think I’m missing something, or maybe some bias has slipped in, feel free to let me know on Twitter.
This week’s player picks were clear standouts at their positions.
So without further ado, here are my Week Nine picks for SuperWest Players of the Week for Offense, Defense, and Special Teams as well as Offensive and Defensive Freshmen.
Offensive Player of the Week: Caleb Williams, QB, USC
Caleb Williams dominated from start to finish in USC’s win over Arizona.Williams not only threw for 411 yards and five touchdowns, he did it with some mozzarella on top.
Defensive Player of the Week: Divine Obichere, DT, Boise State
Divine Obichere let’s his stats do the talking.Obichere finished with seven tackles, 4.5 for loss, and two sacks in Boise State’s blowout win against Colorado State.
Special Teams Player of the Week: Jordyn Tyson, PR, Colorado
Jordyn Tyson not only returned a punt for an 88-yard touchdown. Tyson also added 115 receiving yards and another six.Offensive Freshman of the Week: Taylen Green, QB, Boise State
Taylen Green probably had his most complete performance of the year throwing for 305 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions.Green also added a touchdown with his legs.
Defensive Freshman of the Week: David Bailey, Edge, Stanford
David Bailey was probably the only thing that went right for Stanford in L.A.
Bailey finished the game with nine tackles, two for a loss, one sack, and one forced fumble.
Honorable Mention
Offensive: Zach Charbonnet, RB, UCLA
Defensive: Michael Shawcroft, LB, SDSU
