 | Quarterback Josh Nunes of Stanford, defensive back Kameron Jackson of California and tight end Randall Telfer of USC have been named Pac-12 Players of the Week in football.
The Offensive Player of the Week award goes to Nunes, a senior from Upland, completed 21 of 34 passes for a career-high 360 yards and accounted for five touchdowns as Stanford overcame a 14-point fourth quarter deficit to tip Arizona in overtime, 54-48.
He tossed a pair of touchdown passes and ran for three more -- the first, second and third rushing touchdowns of his career. He also scrambled for gains of 10 yards or more on two third-and-long situations that sustained eventual touchdown drives.
Nunes, a Davey O'Brien Quarterback of the Week honorable mention selection, threw for 117 yards and picked up six passing first downs in the final period.
The Pac-12 honor is the first ever for Nunes.
