A career-high in passing yards and five touchdowns will do that. Boyd had 455 yards passing in Clemsons win over Syracuse and while his two interceptions in Week 6 arent pretty, that they are the first two of his season lessens their impact. Boyd jumps ahead of Texas A&Ms Johnny Manziel and Louisvilles Teddy Bridgewater as top contenders after Manziel enjoyed a bye week and Bridgewater had a pedestrian outing in the Cardinals win over Temple.

Mariota had 355 yards through the air and five of his seven scores in Oregons Week 6 blowout win while adding 43 yards on the ground and his other two TDs.
