Four TDs in shock win over Memphis McCown completed 20 of 37 passes for 280 yards and four touchdowns during Saturday's 44-36 victory versus Memphis. He also had five rushes for 28 yards.

Impact McCown put together an excellent performance Saturday as he lead the Roadrunners to the upset win over Memphis.

Tosses four TDs in brutal loss McCown was 30-for-50 passing for 434 yards and four touchdowns during Saturday's 46-45 loss to Tulsa.

Impact McCown played very well Saturday as he set season highs in passing yards (434), passing touchdowns (four), completions (30) and attempts (50). His only major mistake was when he lost a fumble early in the second half and it was returned for a Tulsa touchdown. He helped his team jump out to a 42-17 lead with five minutes left in the third quarter, but he struggled to get the offensive going on the last five possessions and Tulsa completed the improbable comeback and stole the game. Still, there are a lot of positives to take from McCown's outing. He will look to keep the offense rolling Saturday versus Memphis.

Impact McCown had one of his best performances of the season Saturday as he tossed three touchdown passes and ran for a season-high 53 yards.

Struggles in loss McCown was 24-for-49 passing for 251 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions during Saturday's 30-20 defeat against East Carolina. He also had seven rushes for 11 yards.

Impact McCown had a rough outing Saturday as he completed less than 50 percent of his 49 pass attempts and threw two interceptions, his first two turnovers of the season. Despite throwing for over 250 yards, his second most this season, his lone touchdown pass was not enough to salvage a productive day. In his three games this season versus difficult opponents -- at Texas State, at Texas and at East Carolina -- he has struggled massively. He has a bye week this week before facing what should be an easier opponent on the road versus Rice in Week 7.

Quiet versus Texas McCown completed 21 of 29 passes for 132 yards during Saturday's 56-7 loss versus Texas. He also had seven rushes for negative eight yards.

Impact After a rough outing last week at Texas State where McCown was benched at halftime, there were major concerns heading into Saturday's game versus one of the best teams in the country. While McCown was not particularly good in the blowout loss, he was efficient and did not make any major mistakes. He did not turn the ball over for the third straight game and he completed over 70 percent of his passes for the second time this season. Now that his most difficult opponent is out of the way, he should be able to get back on track and have a productive rest of the season.

Benched after first half McCown was 10-for-23 passing for 105 yards during Saturday's 49-10 defeat versus Texas State.

Impact McCown had an ineffective first half, completing less than 50 percent of his passes for just over 100 yards. That inefficiency led the coaching staff to give Eddie Lee Marburger a chance and although he threw a touchdown, he was not much better than McCown. It's unclear where things stand in the Roadrunners' QB room, but McCown's benching did not seem like a permanent decision. As such, it would not be surprising to see both quarterbacks in action this Saturday at No. 2 Texas.
