Mississippi
State cornerback Johnthan Banks: All American candidate Banks had
another outstanding game in State's 45-14 crushing of Arkansas. In
man-to-man coverage, he gave up only one catch for five yards and
that was to Biletnikoff semifinalist Cobi Hamilton. (Hamilton had six
catches for 83 yards and a touchdown otherwise.) Banks was also a
force against the run, recording five tackles.

game for us,” said Alcorn coach Jay Hopson said after the Braves'
37-11 loss to Jackson State. “Our staff voted unanimously he was
our most outstanding player for the season.”

assist, two tackles for losses and one quarterback sack in USM's
34-33 loss to UTEP. Collins continues to lead C-USA in both sacks and
