Led Hawaii (12-0) to the only perfect regular season in major college football and its first BCS appearance, but his numbers were down from last year because he lost some time to injuries. He passed for 4,174 and 38 touchdowns. CHASE DANIEL, QB, MISSOURI
One of six quarterbacks to reach 4,000 yards passing this season. He threw for 4,170 yards and 33 TDs to get the surprising Tigers within one victory of reaching the BCS national championship game. DARREN MCFADDEN, RB, ARKANSAS
His candidacy lagged with a mediocre October, but he gave himself a boost with a spectacular November, tieing the SEC record with 321 yards rushing against South Carolina, and running for 206 yards and three TDs against LSU. TIM TEBOW, QB, FLORIDA
The ultimate dual-threat quarterback threw for 3,132 yards and 29 touchdowns (with only six interceptions) and ran for 838 yards and an SEC-record 22 touchdowns. ASSOCIATED PRESS
