How Texas Beats Iowa State
Quinn Ewers returned to the Longhorns' lineup last weekend at TCU following a multi-week absence due to a shoulder injury. In that game, the Longhorns played it safe on offense, holding back Ewers from truly challenging the Horned Frogs' defense. Although they clinched a win in Fort Worth, a more aggressive offensive approach will be necessary in their upcoming game in Ames. Ewers has already demonstrated his capability as an offensive leader. With Brooks sidelined by injury, Coach Sarkisian must trust Ewers to steer the offense effectively.
CFP Path: Michigan, Georgia, Texas & Washington Keys to Victory
With spreads ranging from a near pick' em to almost three touchdowns, four of the top-ranked teams in the country still have to get it done on the field this weekend. We look at one key strategy Michigan, Georgia, Washington, and Texas should deploy in their games.
How Michigan Beats Maryland
Wedged between high-profile matchups against Penn State and Ohio State, this game presents a classic trap scenario for Michigan. It's common to experience a letdown in such situations, but Michigan must sidestep this pitfall to secure a win in Maryland. Maintaining focus and intensity in this potentially tricky spot will be crucial for their success.
How Washington Beats Oregon State
Michael Penix Jr., the current frontrunner for the Heisman Trophy, leads the Washington Huskies' offense with precision and finesse. Despite showing improvement against Utah, the offensive line had previously grappled with interior pressure for several weeks. Facing Oregon State, ranked fifth in the country with an average of 3.6 sacks per game, the Huskies must ensure a clean pocket for Penix Jr. in Saturday night's crucial game. Their ability to protect their star quarterback will be a decisive factor in their offensive effectiveness.
How Georgia Beats Tennessee
Week after week, the Georgia Bulldogs have consistently improved their running game. Their offensive line has reached elite status, a fact underscored by Kendall Milton's strong performance against Ole Miss. Milton, who brings a distinctive skill set, is coming off a game where he rushed for 127 yards and two touchdowns. His ability to gain momentum down the stretch and remain on the field will be crucial for this Bulldogs team. Pound that rock.
