ACC: C.J. Spiller (Jr. RB Clemson) -- Spiller caught 6 passes for a school running back record of 105 yards in Clemson's win over Boston College. He ran for 55 yards and returned kicks and punts too. Enough for 242 all-purpose yards.
Big East: LeSean McCoy (So. RB Pitt) -- McCoy ripped Notre Dame's defense for 169 yards and a touchdown on 32 carries in the Panthers 4OT win. McCoy also had 23 receiving yards.
Big 12: Graham Harrell (Sr. QB Texas Tech) -- I don't think there was any question that this guy would be the Big 12 Top Performer for the week after leading his team to an upset victory over Texas. Harrell completed 36 of 53 passes for 474 yards and 2 touchdowns, including the game winner to Michael Crabtree with one second remaining. This guy was No. 2 on my list last week. Look for him to be going up on that list.
Big Ten: Mike Kafka (Jr. QB Northwestern) -- Whenever you set a conference record, you deserve to be named the Top Performer. Kafka did just that in his first start of the season by rushing for a Big Ten quarterback record 217 yards. He also threw for 143 yards with 2 touchdowns.

Pac 10: Toby Gerhart (Jr. RB Stanford) -- Gerhart rushed for 132 yards and 4 touchdowns in Stanford's 58-0 beatdown of Washington State.
SEC: Tim Tebow (Jr. QB Florida) -- Tebow showed off the skills that won him the Heisman Trophy last year in Florida's blowout victory against Georgia. He completed 10 of 13 passes for 154 yards and 2 touchdowns. He carried the ball 12 times for 39 yards and 3 touchdowns. Tebow is finally starting to get back on pace with where he was last year, although he has no realistic chance of touching the numbers he put up last year. He could definitely find himself in the Top 5 this week.

Independents/Non-BCS: Brian Brunner (Sr. QB Central Michigan) -- Starting for an injured Dan LeFevour, Brunner set a school record with 485 passing yards. He had 4 passing touchdowns and he added a score on the ground in the Chippewas' first victory against a BCS conference opponent since 1992.
Max Hall (Jr. QB BYU) -- He completed 28 of 35 passes for 389 yards and 5 touchdowns in a close win over Colorado State.
