Michigan quarterback Wilton Speight today was named the Big Ten offensive player of the week for his performance Saturday against Central Florida.

He threw for 312 yards and four touchdowns in the 51-14 win.

“If a quarterback throws for four touchdowns and over 300 yards, that’s a great performance,” Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh said after the game. “Will not be going out on a limb to say he’ll be our offensive player of the week, of the game.”
