Players to keep an eye on for Week 7: CFB

Colt McCoy QB Texas - Colt hasn't been playing as well as he did last year but he's still been pretty decent. He has thrown for 1,410 yards with 10 touchdowns and has completed 73 percent of his passes. The only bad thing is that he has also thrown 6 interceptions. He only 8 all year, last year. He's facing Oklahoma in the big rivalry game and they need him to preform like he can.

Jimmy Clausen QB Notre Dame - Notre Dame is facing a big rival themselves when the USC Trojans come to town. Notre Dame has lost the last seven games to the Trojans, so they need for Jimmy to come through and help the Irish overcome that losing streak and probably even save his head coach's butt.

Blaine Gabbert QB Missouri - The Missouri Tigers had been flying high in the early part of this season. That is until Nebraska came to town and knocked them down. Gabbert has filled in nicely for the departed Chase Daniels and I believe that nobody really thought that the team or Gabbert would be playing this good. Blaine had played pretty well with 11 touchdown passes and zero interceptions til the Nebraska game last week. He threw zero touchdowns and two interceptions in that game. His completion percentage also took a hit with that game, he only completed 39.5 of his passes. The Tigers are going down to Stillwater to face the Oklahoma State Cowboys and a questionable defense. Can Blaine bounce back and throw all over the Pokes or will the Cowboys finally figure out that they need to start playing defense against the bigger schools and tackle people?
