SAN ANTONIO, Nov. 25 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Four nominees for the AT&T All-America Player of the Week award have been announced after the thirteenth week of college football action, and now it's up to the fans to determine the winner. University of Missouri quarterback Chase Daniel, University of Florida quarterback Tim Tebow, West Virginia University quarterback Pat White and University of Cincinnati quarterback Ben Mauk have been selected by ESPN as this week's top candidates based on their outstanding performances. Fans can determine the winner by sending the text message VOTE to 87654 from a wireless phone.

Daniel went 40 for 49 with 361 yards resulting in three touchdowns in the Tigers' upset over Kansas. Tim Tebow threw for 262 yards with three touchdowns and had 13 rushes for 89 yards with two touchdowns in the Florida Gators' win over Florida State. White went 9 for 13 with 107 yards for a touchdown and rushed for 186 yards with two touchdowns in the Mountaineers' win over UConn. Mauk threw for a personal-best 431 yards and four touchdowns with a rushing touchdown in the Bearcats' win over Syracuse.

Each of these athletes had tremendous performances for their team this week," said Dave Garver, executive director of Business Development and Wireless Sponsorships for AT&T's wireless unit. "AT&T is proud to recognize them for their achievements on the field and wishes each of them the best of luck throughout the season. Now it's up to the fans to decide who the best college football player is this week."

Fans have until 11:59 p.m. ET on Wednesday to submit their votes. The winner will be announced Nov. 29 at halftime during Thursday's ESPN College Football Primetime Presented by Applebee's college football game between Rutgers and Louisville. There is no limit on fan voting, and each vote counts as one entry into a sweepstakes to win a trip to the 2008 BCS National Championship game in New Orleans.

The AT&T All-America Player of the Week program will continue throughout the season, with the nominees being revealed each Sunday on ESPN's "SportsCenter" at 9 a.m. ET and on the Web at http://www.espnallamerica.com. AT&T customers can visit AT&T's wireless NCAA(R) Football Portal on their handsets to view video highlights of each week's candidates, retrieve photos, check scores, track their favorite teams and download school ringtones.

In December, four finalists for the AT&T All-America Player of the Year award will be announced during a one-hour special on ABC Sports, when the Football Writers Association of America All-America team will also be announced. Fans will then get a chance to say who the best player in the nation is by voting for the AT&T All-America Player of the Year up until the Bowl Championship Series. Voting ends Jan. 4, and the winner will be announced during the BCS National Championship game on FOX Jan. 8.

Last year, University of Notre Dame quarterback Brady Quinn was crowned as the AT&T All-America Player of the Year after beating out Ohio State quarterback Troy Smith -- the Heisman Trophy winner -- Rutgers running back Ray Rice and Hawaii quarterback Colt Brennan. Voting for the AT&T All-America Player of the Year was the highest total in the three-year history of the award.
