Our weekly watch of Trojan football alums...
Heisman Worthy
Mark Sanchez, QB, Jets - 22/38 for 315 yards and 3 TD passes
The numbers are good, but they do not even begin to tell the story of Sanchez's dramatic play of late. Last week, he beat the Browns and the overtime buzzer with a game-winning TD pass to Santonio Holmes. Yesterday, his Jets were completely dead, down four with 49 seconds to go and no timeouts. Sure enough, the "Sanchize" hits LaDainian Tomlinson twice for 24 yards, Braylon Edwards for 42 and Holmes again for the winner.
All-American Caliber
Troy Polamalu, DB, Steelers - Team-leading six tackles and an interception in a 35-3 win
Clay Matthews, LB, Packers - NFL-leading 11th sack in a 31-3 victory
Matt Cassel, QB, Chiefs - 15/24 for 193 yards and 2 TD/0 INT in a 31-13 win
Mike Williams, WR, Seahawks - 6 catches for 109 yards, including a 68-yarder in a loss
Terrell Thomas, CB, Giants - Team-leading 9 tackles and a pass defended in defeat
