Each Monday, we’ll gather the best catches from the weekend (or the midweek games) and bring them here for you to vote on in a poll. There could be only a few nominees, or there could be five or six. It all depends on the weekend. If you have a catch you’d like to nominate, don’t hesitate to hit us up on Twitter (@YahooDrSaturday).

The voting remains open until Friday and the winner advances to another round of voting that will help crown the best catch of the regular season.

Colorado is off to its best start in a while and now the Buffs have a catch of the week under their belt thanks to Bryce Bobo. Bobo’s game-winning touchdown snag against Oregon took home 50 percent of the vote in Week 4.

Bobo edged out UMass’ Jalen Williams (30 percent), UNC’s Bug Howard (10 percent), and Cal’s Chad Hansen (10 percent).

Here are the Week 5 nominees:

Linell Bonner – Houston

Bonner won the catch of the week in Week 1, and now he’s back again. On Thursday night against UConn, Bonner made a ridiculous one-handed touchdown grab in the corner of the end zone.

Bonner had 12 catches for 159 yards in the 42-14 victory, which improved the sixth-ranked Cougars record to 5-0.

Shelton Gibson – West Virginia

A remarkable catch by West Virginia’s Shelton Gibson helped spark a comeback win over Kansas State. The Mountaineers were trailing 16-3 late in the third quarter when Skyler Howard looked deep for Gibson. Gibson fought through tight coverage and leaped for the ball. As he brought in the pass, his helmet was ripped off by a defender and he was able to maintain possession.

Jauan Jennings – Tennessee

You’ve seen this one by now. After Georgia went ahead 31-28 with just 10 seconds left, Tennessee’s only chance to win was with a Hail Mary. Josh Dobbs dropped back to pass and lofted one up into the end zone where Jauan Jennings was somehow able to outleap a swarm of UGA defenders and bring in the game-winning touchdown.

Jennings’s clutch play kept the Vols undefeated.

Thaddeus Moss – NC State

You may recommend the Moss name, that’s because Thaddeus is the son of NFL great Randy Moss. He showed great hands run in the family when he made a crazy catch for NC State Saturday against Wake Forest.

The 6-foot-4, 247-pound Moss is listed as a tight end/fullback on the Wolfpack’s roster, but he sure looked like a wide receiver here. He was split out wide and somehow was able to dive and tip the ball to himself with one hand and bring in the pass as he fell to the turf.

Awesome play.

Jeremy Tabuyo – Texas A&M

The Aggies improved to 5-0 Saturday with a 24-13 over South Carolina and senior Jeremy Tabuyo led the team with 89 receiving yards. 29 of those yards came on this wild one-handed catch in the second quarter:

Perhaps the best part of the catch was his in-air body control. He located the ball and was able to rotate in the air in order to bring the ball in with just his left hand. Impressive play.
