Leading Men

DAVID CARR

Quarterback, Fresno State

The Central California Cinderella story ended for the Bulldogs and for Carr, who needs to direct comebacks against teams like Boise State instead of letdowns.

Season: 170 for 265, 2,145 yards, 17 TDs.

Season: 136 carries, 777 yards., 14 TDs; 65 for 112, 986 yards, 7 TDs.

DeSHAUN FOSTER

Running back, UCLA

Rather ordinary 117-yard effort against winless Cal. Let’s hope East Coast voters heard score and made assumptions.

Season: 167 carries, 930 yards, 10 TDs.

Nextat Stanford, Saturday

JOEY HARRINGTON

Quarterback, Oregon

“Captain Comeback” had his chance to show the country the billboard was worth the money. Instead, Stanford proves to be his kryptonite in a disappointing fourth quarter.

Season: 129 for 219, 1,677 yards, 16 TDs.

Nextat No. 19 Washington State, Saturday
