A quiet week for Trojans as injuries have decimated the ranks...

Heisman Worthy

Kaluka Maiava, LB, Browns - 9 tackles (5 solo)

kaluka_maiava.jpgThe former Rose Bowl MVP is having a career season in Cleveland.  After a strong rookie campaign in 2009, Maiava missed all but two games in his second season.  He bounced back with a solid 2011 playing in all 16 games, but now he is a force in the Browns defense.  On Sunday, he led a gritty 7-6 victory by shutting the San Diego Chargers down amidst heavy rains and muddy conditions.
