Rahim had a monster Saturday and now it's shaping up to be a big week for Bruin sophomore Rahim Moore. He started the season on a huge note by intercepting 3 passes yesterday at the Rose Bowl. As Centric shotted below he has already been nominated for AT&T All-America Player of the Week award. You can vote by texting the word VOTE to 345345 on your cell phone. The deadline is 8:59 p.m. PT Wednesday.

In addition to that honor Rahim Moore was just honored as National Defensive Player of the Week by the Walter Camp Football Foundation. Per Ted Miller of WWL, Moore's 3 picks tied the UCLA record shared by Ron Carver, Craig Rutledge and Darryl Henley.

So congrats to Rahim. Let's hope he is just getting started. I will leave you all again with this message from him following yesterday's win. I already posted it this am once but it's worth reinforcing again:

"Last year was one of the best wins I've ever been a part of," sophomore safety Rahim Moore, who tied a UCLA record Saturday with three interceptions, said of the Tennessee victory.

"This is a good win, too. . . . But the team has to learn more. We can't let this victory go to our heads. We have work to do."

Onward.

GO BRUINS.
