Here they are. The best of each conference from week 8.
ACC: Chris Turner (Jr. QB Maryland) -- Turner led the Terps to
a 26-0 shutout of Wake Forest Saturday with a career high 321 yards and 1 touchdown through the air. Turner is now 5-0 against ranked teams in his career, with 1,135 passing yards, 7 touchdowns and no interceptions in those games. In his other 13 games of his career, Turner has 7 touchdowns and 13 interceptions and a 5-8 record. Go figure.

Big 12: Colt McCoy (Jr. QB Texas) -- Set a school record 90.6 completion percentage as he completed 29 of 32 passes for 337 yards and 2 touchdowns. He also ran for 23 yards and 2 scores in the Longhorns victory over Missouri.
Big East: LeSean McCoy (So. RB Pitt) -- He carried the ball 18 times for 156 yards and 3 touchdowns against Navy with a chest cold that made it hard for him to catch his breath.

Big Ten: Shonn Greene (Jr. RB Iowa) -- I think everyone saw this one coming. Greene ran for a career high 217 yards and tied a school record with 4 touchdowns against Wisconsin Saturday. It only took him 25 carries to reach this total. I might have some additional comments about this back in the next day or two...
Pac 10: Keola Antolin (Fr. RB Arizona) -- He came off the bench and led the comeback in the second half against No. 25 Cal. He ran the ball 21 times for 149 yards and 3 touchdowns in the Wildcats 42-27 upset victory.
SEC: Michael Smith (Jr. RB Arkansas) -- In a one point loss to Kentucky, Smith carried the ball 35 times for 192 yards and 1 touchdown. He also caught 3 passes for 33 yards and another touchdown.

Independents/Non-BCS: David Johnson (Sr. QB Tulsa) -- Johnson is the highest rated quarterback in the nation this year. He improved his rating this weekend after completed 21 of 27 passes for 434 yards, 5 touchdowns and one interception against UTEP. His team won 77-35 and is ranked for the first time this year. They are No. 19 in the BCS standings.
Dennis Kennedy (Sr. RB Akron) -- Kennedy ran for 277 yards on 25 carries for 3 touchdowns including the game winner in the Zips 42-35 win over Eastern Michigan.
