and the Big 12 offensive player of the week is.......


Stephen McGee, So, QB, Texas A&M (Burnet, Texas)

In Texas A&M's come-from-behind, 21-18, win at Kansas, quarterback Stephen McGee engineered a pair of 80-yard, fourth-quarter scoring drives for the Aggies. He led A&M on a 12-play drive in the closing minutes by converting three third down passes including a 35-yard strike to set up the game winning touchdown with 0:34 left. McGee completed 25-of-40 attempts, with no interceptions, for 240 yards.


(yes, I am aware that this honor was awarded to Graham Harrell after his heroics in RoosterBowl IX)

35 yard strike? From my tv, it appeared to be a screen pass that ended up being a 35 yard gain.

it was. It looked like it was right out of the Mike Leach playbook.

The Equivocator is alive and well! (Or should I say the Embellishing Equivocator...?)
