Stave’s comeback crucial for Badgers By Jim Dayton the daily cardinal
As fall camp wound to a close and Wisconsin prepared for its season opener against LSU, only the quarterback battle between Joel Stave and Tanner McEvoy remained to be decided. When the coaching staff opted to go with McEvoy to begin the year, it made sense. Head coach Gary Andersen has always been enamored with dual threat quarterbacks. He had one at Utah State in Chuckie Keeton, had another in true freshman D.J. Gillins and would have dynamic high schooler Austin Kafentzis coming to Madison in 2015. McEvoy, with his 4.5 40-time, would be the stepping-stone to Gillins and Kafentzis, a transition away from the traditional pocket passer style that has always personified UW quarterbacks. But then came McEvoy’s atrocious debut against LSU, going 8-24 for a measly 50 yards and two interceptions. As the game slipped away, questions abounded. Why hadn’t Stave been inserted at quarterback? Why did the Badgers insist on throwing the
ball with an ineffective McEvoy? Those questions seemed to be answered Sept. 2, when Andersen announced that Stave had a shoulder injury and would be temporarily shut down. But just one day later, Andersen retracted that statement, saying Stave wasn’t hurt and instead was dealing with the psychological issue known as the yips. The yips, a mysterious and sudden inability to perform routine tasks, derailed the careers of baseball players Steve Blass and Chuck Knoblauch. It usually comes without provocation. “It was a tough time for me,” Stave said. “I was a little disappointed that I obviously wasn’t playing and it just got in my head a little bit.” The exact timing of the condition’s onset is unknown. Stave said the issues began after the team announced McEvoy would be the starter. However, Jesse Temple of Fox Sports Wisconsin previously reported that Stave was in line to start the opener until coaches noticed his struggles in midAugust, which was prior to any
starter announcement. The cause isn’t known, either. While some have speculated that the nagging shoulder injury originally suffered in last season’s Capital One Bowl may have had something to do with Stave’s issues, the redshirt junior dismissed that notion. “I’ve had my issues with my throwing shoulder but I feel like, for the most part, besides aches here and there just from wear and tear of throwing the ball over and over, I wouldn’t say it really plays a factor,” Stave said. Stave’s issues are particularly unusual considering he had a rather good season in 2013. Badger fans were spoiled by Russell Wilson’s brilliant 2011 numbers, but Stave’s 2013 remains one of the better seasons in program history. Last year, Stave threw for 2,494 yards, 22 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. He completed just under 62 percent of his passes while compiling an efficiency rating of 138.1. The touchdowns rank second, the yardage fifth, the completion percentage sixth, and the rating eighth all-time within Wisconsin annals.
But memories are short in sports. As the Badgers stumbled to a 9-4 record last year, all anyone could remember about Stave was the interceptions. Way before the yips arose, fans were intrigued by the prospect of McEvoy starting over Stave. After losing his job and developing a psychological issue, Stave found himself back at square one in his Wisconsin career. He had arrived as a walk-on and worked his way to a scholarship and starting job. Now he had to relearn how to throw a football. “It’s frustrating, as it would be for anyone in any situation, but you just got to stay positive and keep fighting through,” Stave said. “It’s not an easy situation but just stay positive in your faith and what you believe in.” Though Stave was solely responsible for overcoming his problems, he was not without support from the coaching staff. “He did a great job working through it and you just keep coaching him, telling him how much confidence we have in all his abilities and his skillset,” said offensive coordinator Andy Ludwig, who also serves as
Stave’s position coach. “He’s such a great leader and a good quarterback. We believed in him.” Stave returned to action against Northwestern and had an awful game, tossing three interceptions in a 20-14 loss. But demonstrating that his problems are in the past, Stave has started all four games since and helped Wisconsin to four victories. While his stats in those four games are by no means spectacular, averaging 132 passing yards per contest while completing 57 percent of his passes, Stave is key to the Badgers’ hopes of securing a spot in the Big Ten championship. Wisconsin won’t be able to simply give the ball to Melvin Gordon and ignore the passing game. The Badgers face Nebraska, Iowa and Minnesota in their final three contests, teams that rank 20th, 61st and 37th, respectively, in rushing defense. Though fans remember the interceptions last year and complain about his statistical mediocrity this year, there is perhaps no player more essential to Wisconsin’s success down the stretch than Stave.
“…the great state University of Wisconsin should ever encourage that continual and fearless sifting and winnowing by which alone the truth can be found.”

Five things to watch By Shea Gallup the daily cardinal
1
Wisconsin’s shutdown defense
Coming off their fourth consecutive win, the Badgers (4-1 Big Ten, 7-2 overall) will have a tough task this weekend against Nebraska (4-1, 8-1). The ability of the Wisconsin defense to dominate games has been noticeable over the current four-game winning streak.
This year they’ve held opponents to 14.3 points per game, third best in the country, and held Purdue to just 26 rushing yards last week. This week, that challenge will be a little bit tougher. Wisconsin faces a Nebraska team that puts up the 10th-most rushing yards per game. That attack is led by running back Ameer Abdullah. All year Abdullah has been putting up numbers that put him right there with Melvin Gordon as one of the best backs in college football.
It will be interesting to see if the Wisconsin defense, with its injuries on the line, can contain Abdullah. If they are able to stop the run and force Nebraska to throw the football, we could see a high number of sacks as the Nebraska offense becomes more frustrated.
2
Successful use of Joel Stave and Tanner McEvoy
It finally looks like Joel Stave is over his early season struggles.
While Wisconsin is continuing to use both Stave and Tanner McEvoy, it is becoming clear that Stave is the first choice. Against Purdue, Stave threw for 219 yards and two touchdowns. Stave has been looking more confident in the pocket. He doesn’t seem to be rushing his throws and he is escaping pressure more easily while keeping his eyes downfield. When McEvoy is in, the game plan completely changes. Often, Wisconsin will line up with three other options in the backfield along with McEvoy, who is also a running threat. Due to all the options, some big plays happen when McEvoy is under center. There is still room for improvement, but with the way the running game opened everything up last week, the quarterbacks haven’t felt the pressure to make big plays.
3 Melvin Gordon against the Nebraska defense
Melvin Gordon is having an outstanding year. He is the nation’s leading rusher, at 1,501 yards, and is averaging over 150 yards per game. He has also scored the second most rushing touchdowns among running backs at 19. If Gordon can keep up these numbers, it is hard to imagine him not being in the conversation to win the Heisman Trophy. However, continuing these numbers isn’t going to be easy against a tough Nebraska defense. This year Nebraska is holding its opponents to just 124 yards per game. This will be the toughest defense Wisconsin has faced since the season opener against LSU. Even then, Gordon was able to put up 140 yards and a touchdown. Expect Gordon to once again put up huge numbers and keep himself in the Heisman conversation.
4
Both teams control their own destiny
Both Wisconsin and Nebraska are tied for first in the Big Ten West,
along with Minnesota. With both teams in control of their destiny, there is a little added pressure for this game. With both teams yet to play Minnesota and Iowa there is still a little hope for the losing team. Simply put, win out and you’re in the Big Ten championship game. Slowly but surely the Big Ten is returning to national respectability. Last weekend ESPN’s College Gameday was in East Lansing, Michigan, for the game between Michigan State and Ohio State. This weekend, the Badgers and the Cornhuskers will play a nationally televised game. With a win Wisconsin could catapult itself back into the conversation for a Rose Bowl berth and a good performance from Gordon can get more people talking about him as a Heisman candidate.
5
The Freedom Trophy
It was announced Monday that there would be another trophy game between two Big Ten schools. The newly created Freedom Trophy will be awarded for the first time Saturday to the winner of Nebraska and Wisconsin. The trophy commemorates the historic pasts of Camp Randall Stadium and Nebraska’s Memorial Stadium along with honoring the nation’s veterans. Half of the trophy looks like Camp Randall, while the other half looks like Memorial Stadium, and an American flag sits in the middle. Included is an inscription that reads, “The Freedom Trophy pays tribute to the brave men and women who have fought in our nation’s wars. The University of Wisconsin’s Camp Randall Stadium, built on what was once a Civil War training ground, and the University of Nebraska’s Memorial Stadium, dedicated in honor of our nation’s veterans, stand as proud monuments to those who have sacrificed so much in the name of freedom.” The addition of the Freedom Trophy should add even more excitement to an already important game.

By David Gwidt The daily cardinal
As we venture into Week 12 of the 2014 college football season, the Nebraska Cornhuskers find themselves atop the Big Ten West division standings posting an 8-1 record, with their only blemish being a road loss at Michigan State. Coming off of a bye week, the No. 13 Cornhuskers will travel to Camp Randall energized to play a game that may have Playoff implications for the team. When hitting on all cylinders, the Nebraska offense has proven to be one of the most potent in all of college football, ranking 12th in the FBS in points per game with 40. In fact, Nebraska has eclipsed the 30-point plateau in all but one game this season. Much like Wisconsin, the main cog of Nebraska’s offense is its running game. The offense relies heavily upon the success of its running back Ameer Abdullah, who is thought to be one of the best in the business at his position. Anyone who watched Nebraska face off against Purdue two weeks ago witnessed just how instrumental Abdullah is to that offense, as Imani Cross, who received

Mariota, Prescott dueling for Heisman By Jim Dayton the daily cardinal
This is the ninth edition of the Heisman Watch, a weekly feature tracking the candidates for college football’s most prestigious award. For last week’s rankings, check The Daily Cardinal website.
1. Marcus Mariota, Oregon QB (Last Week: 1)
Mariota survived what appeared to be his final regular season test last week when he went on the road and helped Oregon defeat a talented Utah team on the road. The Ducks just have to deal with Colorado and Oregon State, though things can get weird in the Civil War rivalry. Oregon has clinched a spot in the Pac-12 title game, where the Ducks will have to face whoever comes out of the jumbled Pac-12 South. The conference championship takes place prior to the Heisman ceremony, so if Mariota drops a dud in that game, it could hurt his campaign at the most crucial point. I know that’s looking way ahead, but when your remaining opponents have a combined record of 6-13 and cumulatively allow nearly 240 passing yards per game, you can do that a little bit. Considering Oregon should win out (key word: should), there’s not much Mariota can do to enhance his campaign, but an unexpected loss would really hurt.
2. Dak Prescott, Mississippi State QB (LW: 2)
Now for a quarterback whose Heisman candidacy still has so much to gain. Unlike Mariota, Prescott has two ridiculously
difficult road games left on the schedule: Alabama and Ole Miss. Dak needs the challenge to surpass Mariota. There’s a large statistical gap between the two quarterbacks, something I mention pretty much every week. If Prescott somehow leads typically moribund Mississippi State to an undefeated regular season, he will undoubtedly win the Heisman. Stats are important, but college sports tend to place a greater emphasis on Cinderella teams. Prescott’s stats are by no means bad, and if the Bulldogs go undefeated, there’s no reason not to reward him for being the face of a miracle season. Losing a game will make it tougher, but if State emerges as the SEC West champs, Prescott will benefit from the conference’s prevalence in the media. There are probably voters who haven’t even stayed awake on a Saturday night to watch Mariota play. Essentially, while Mariota has the amazing numbers and the amazing talent, Prescott has a number of warm and fuzzy factors that could catapult him to the Heisman podium come December.
3. Melvin Gordon, Wisconsin RB (LW: 3)
Oh, ya know, just another 200-yard game for Gordon last week against Purdue. He leads the nation in rushing, averaging a ridiculous 166 yards per game. Gordon also ranks second in the nation in total touchdowns, reaching pay dirt 21 total times this season. He’ll outrun you, he’ll stiff arm you, he’ll hurdle you. He’s
rushed for at least 100 yards in eight games, has averaged at least five yards per carry in eight games and has scored multiple touchdowns in each of his last four contests. Gordon is currently on pace for 2,000 yards on the ground, and that’s not even including the possibility of a Big Ten title appearance.
4. Brett Hundley, UCLA QB (LW: 8)
I like Hundley more than most people. He gets no love in the media as a potential Heisman candidate, yet has a higher completion percentage than anyone else in the nation and ranks ninth in efficiency rating. He’s only thrown four interceptions. UCLA is quietly in the hunt for a New Year’s Day bowl, even after a slow start and losses to Oregon and Utah. Everyone loves Arizona State after their annihilation of Notre Dame last Saturday, but back in September, it was Hundley and the Bruins who obliterated the Sun Devils in a 62-27 pounding. Hundley threw for 355 yards and four touchdowns in that game. He also ran for a touchdown, one of seven he’s had so far. If they get a little help elsewhere and win the Pac-12 South, the Bruins will rematch Oregon in a potential shining moment for this dark horse Heisman candidate.
5. J.T. Barrett, Ohio State QB (LW: Not Ranked)
Remember back in Week 2, when Barrett looked like the second coming of Danny O’Brien? He completed a comical 31 per-

cent of his passes and threw three interceptions as the Buckeyes lost to Virginia Tech. Fast forward to early November, and Barrett has made himself into a Heisman candidate. He ranks second only to Mariota in efficiency rating, is tied for fifth with Prescott in yards per attempt, and has an outstanding 26:7 touchdown to interception ratio. Last week, he went on the road to East Lansing and took down Michigan State to the tune of 300 yards and three touchdowns, while also rushing for two scores. At this point I just want to know what happens to Braxton Miller. The former star quarterback will either have to take a shot at the NFL immediately following major injury or transfer, because the Ohio State job is Barrett’s for the foreseeable future.
6. Trevone Boykin, TCU QB (LW: NR)
And remember that a wide receiver has only won the award three times.
8. Cody Kessler, USC QB (LW: 5)
Yeah, yeah, I know he won’t win. The book on Kessler is that he’s just a game manager, someone who’s best served taking the snap and handing it to Buck Allen or dumping it off to some receiver. But that completely misses the boat on Kessler. Though the Trojans run the ball more than they throw it, Kessler has lit up the box score more than once this season. He threw for seven touchdowns and 319 yards against Colorado Oct. 18, and tossed five more scores and 400 yards two weeks ago against Washington State. When you throw 25 touchdowns and only two interceptions and rank fourth in efficiency rating and completion percentage, you deserve a few Heisman votes.
This is the first time I’ve put Boykin in my rankings, and surely some would say I waited too long. Despite a fantastic 23:4 touchdown to interception ratio, Boykin ranks a mediocre 36th in both yards per attempt and efficiency rating, and is 75th in completion percentage. In a crucial Big 12 matchup between TCU and Kansas State last week, Boykin ripped apart the Wildcat defense. He ran for 123 yards and three touchdowns, while also passing for a score. If TCU wins out and sits on the fringe of the Playoff, expect Boykin to be a Heisman finalist. His campaign has a lot of momentum right now.
I’m going to go on a little rant here. Winston will be a Top 10 pick in next year’s NFL Draft. But can we please end talk of Winston’s 2014 Heisman candidacy? His mediocre 17:11 touchdown to interception ratio is not deserving of any major award. While I was watching college football last Saturday, a graphic flashed showing potential Heisman candidates. Mariota. Prescott. Gordon. Winston? The analyst said something to the effect of, “All he does is win games.” Shut up. Rant over.
7. Blake Sims, Alabama QB (LW: 4)
10. Ameer Abdullah, Nebraska RB (LW: 10)
It was not a good game last week for Sims, who completed less than 50 percent of his passes and averaged a putrid 4.6 yards per attempt last week in an overtime win over LSU. But hey, LSU ranks fifth nationally in passing defense, so Sims’ numbers become slightly less awful. Most people are labeling wide receiver Amari Cooper as Alabama’s true Heisman candidate, but Sims ranks sixth in efficiency rating and is tied for seventh in yards per attempt. He’s very good.
9. Jameis Winston, Florida State QB (LW: 6)
I originally moved Marshall’s Rakeem Cato from No. 9 to this spot, but the only reason I’ve ever ranked Cato is because he has decent numbers and is the quarterback of a still-undefeated team. I removed Cato entirely and kept Abdullah. Though his Heisman hopes are fading after missing an entire game against Purdue and having two bad games besides that, a duel with Gordon this Saturday will be a last-ditch attempt to get back in the race and claim positional supremacy.

Buckeyes take top spot in poll 1
2
By Jack Baer the daily cardinal
4. No. 22 Wisconsin, 115 points
Hail Ohio State, new undisputed kings of the Big Ten. The Buckeyes have the inside track to the Big Ten championship and aren’t entirely eliminated from the College Football Playoff (although it’s going to require some very specific sequences of events to get them in). Now, we move onto the game that will likely decide the West.
Take away noted fast person Akeem Hunt’s 79-yard touchdown catch that came thanks to a linebacker covering him, and Purdue gained 159 yards against the Badgers last week. This success on defense might seem a little bizarre at first, but guys like Michael Caputo and Vince Biegel do give Wisconsin the explanatory star power.
1. No. 8 Ohio State (10 first place votes), 140 points
5. Minnesota, 100 points
Last week’s offensive domination of Michigan State should leave no doubts: Ohio State is the best team in the conference. What’s even more scary is how young they are. J.T. Barrett is a freshman and is pretty much the best quarterback in the conference, every major skill player outside of Devin Smith is an underclassman and Joey Freaking Bosa is only a sophomore. Urban Meyer is ridiculous.
2. No. 12 Michigan State, 128 points
Even though they lost convincingly on their home turf, there’s good reason to believe the Spartans are still second best in the conference. The offense is still explosive (536 yards against Ohio State while holding Bosa to just 1 tackle) and if anyone can be trusted to shore up the defense heading into bowl season, it’s Pat Narduzzi. Enjoy the Capital One Bowl Michigan State fans, it probably won’t go as badly as 2011’s. Then again, the way the SEC West is looking, at least one very good, very angry SEC team is falling into Orlando New Years Day.
3. No. 11 Nebraska, 117 points
The Blackshirts might be one of the more underrated defenses in the conference at this point, led by a likely first round draft pick in Randy Gregory. The big worry is if the offense can remain anywhere near as explosive with Ameer Abdullah at less than 100 percent, because a new, more competent Tommy Armstrong isn’t walking through that door.
Okay Minnesota, we get it. You’re at worst the third best team in the West. You didn’t have to make Kirk Ferentz cry to prove that. The Gophers held Iowa to 205 total yards, a feat I’m going to go ahead and guess they won’t accomplish again this week against Ohio State. Still, that should be the second most important/entertaining game of the week in the Big Ten.
6. Maryland, 87 points
Here we have this week’s possible victims of a “We’re angry and going to take it out on the first mediocre team we see” Michigan State. The Terrapins haven’t broken 200 yards on offense since Oct. 18, and will be non-factor in the Big Ten until they relearn how to run the ball (77 total rushing yards in their last two games, averaging 1.3 yards per rush).
7. Iowa, 83 points
Goodbye, Iowa as a possible contender in the West. We were willing to overlook the Maryland loss as a single blip, but getting outclassed to such a severe degree by Minnesota means the Hawkeyes are going to be seen as staggering underdogs when they welcome Wisconsin and Nebraska to Kinnick Stadium.
8. Penn State, 63 points
By scoring, the Nittany Lions have the second best defense and the second worst offense in the Big Ten, averaging out to mediocre. It’s quite curious how they could be so defense heavy, considering current head coach James Franklin and previous coach Bill O’Brien both come from offensive backgrounds.

T-9. Rutgers, 52 points
Three weeks ago, the Scarlet Knights were looking solid and poised to compete with at least one of Ohio State, Nebraska and Wisconsin. They were then outscored by those three teams 13541. They’ll get a respite this week against Indiana, but then it’s on to Michigan State.

Michigan’s win from last week came from Northwestern deciding to go for two when down 10-9, running the most telegraphed rollout to the right you’ll ever see, then having their quarterback, no joke, fall on his rear end. That could go down as the least impressive win of the season in the Big Ten.
11. Northwestern, 47 points
I’m willing to guess if it weren’t for a certain Badger offensive fiasco in Evanston, Northwestern would be unanimous last in the conference. They’ve gone from beating Mississippi State in the year 2013 and Pat Fitzgerald being one of those young, charismatic coaches every failing power program wants to, well, their quarterback ending a toxic game by falling on his caboose.
12. Purdue, 29 points
I’ll say this much for Purdue last week against Wisconsin, they were competitive. The challenging part of their schedule is now completely over. Their final three weeks go bye, Northwestern, Indiana. If you watch Purdue football again this season and aren’t an alum, God help you.
13. Illinois, 24 points
The real tragedy of the Illini somehow beating Minnesota is that without that victory, the Illini would have as many different starting quarterbacks as wins this season.

Analytically forecasting the College Football Playoff By Badger Bracketology Teams most likely to make the playoff by percentage of simulations: 1. Florida State: 61.6% 2. Mississippi State: 61.2% 3. Alabama: 49.9% 4. TCU: 30.1% 5. Mississippi: 29.1% 6. Oregon 26.4% 7. Baylor 24.4% 8. Ohio State: 24.0% 9. Auburn: 12.9% 10. Nebraska: 12.9% 11. Arizona State: 12.7% 12. UCLA: 10.0% 13. Georgia: 8.5% 14. Marshall: 7.9% 15. Minnesota: 7.1% 16. Duke: 6.7% 17. Wisconsin: 3.9% 18. Kansas State: 3.6% 19. Notre Dame: 3.1% 20. Georgia Tech: 2.3%
Teams simulated most often to finish fifth:
1. Ohio State: 7.8% 2. Mississippi State: 7.6% 3. Alabama: 7.4% 4. UCLA: 7.1% 5. Georgia: 6.8% 6. Oregon: 5.7% 7. Duke: 5.6% 8. Baylor: 5.6%
Likelihood of playoff berth by conference: ACC: 66.8% Big 12: 48.6% Big Ten: 44.8% Pac-12: 44.6% SEC: 97.4%
The big winners from last week, Ohio State, TCU and Ohio State, now all find themselves in the Top 8 of Playoff contention and waiting for some eventual losses from the top tier of the SEC. The way the Playoff is shaping up it looks like one team from the SEC is a given and two is a luxury. The possibility of an ACC playoff team rests almost entirely on Florida State and the Big 12, Big Ten and Pac-12 willl fight for the remaining one or two spots. All projections come from Badger Bracketology, a sports analytics team from the College of Engineering headed by associate professor Laura McLay. Their methodology uses data science and discrete simulations to forecast not just the best teams in the country, but the ones most likely to make the Playoff based on their future opponents. They do this by simulating the outcomes of future matchups and ranking teams based on those outcomes. This is their ensemble model, which is a combination of their three different ranking methods. Conference championship games aren’t included, so this is more of a forecast of the hierarchy going into championship week. Check back as the season goes on for updates. For more information, you can follow them on Twitter through @badgerbrackets and read their full forecasts at bracketology.engr.wisc.edu.

SEC clash has major playoff implications By Jason Braverman the daily cardinal
No. 1 Mississippi State at No. 4 Alabama
The top five showdown in Tuscaloosa will have huge playoff implications. A two-loss Alabama (5-1 SEC, 8-1 overall) likely wouldn’t be able to work its way back into the top four, but undefeated Mississippi State (5-0, 9-0) could probably withstand a tough road loss if it takes care of business against Vanderbilt and Ole Miss afterwards. After their trio of consecutive wins against top 10 opponents, the Bulldogs have played SEC bottom feeders Kentucky and Arkansas, and then beat up on Tennesee-Martin last week. Heisman candidate quarterback Dak Prescott continues to pace the offense, adding another three touchdowns in the win a week ago. Alabama is coming off its biggest win of the season, going into Death Valley and coming away with a 20-13 overtime win over rival LSU. Other than a close loss, the Crimson Tide have been on a roll all year with the win at LSU preceded by a 59-0 rout of Texas A&M and a comfortable road win against Tennessee. Wide receiver Amari Cooper has been nearly impossible to defend, and he’s been at his best recently with at least eight catches, 80 yards and a score in each of his last three games. Whoever wins should have the inside track to the Playoff, though it’s not entirely impossible that they both end up in the top four in the final poll.

No. 9 Auburn at No. 16 Georgia
Auburn’s (4-2, 7-2) Playoff hopes took a huge hit with last week’s home upset at the hands of Texas A&M, and the schedule doesn’t get any easier for them as they still have to travel to both Georgia and Alabama. The nation’s eighth best rushing offense had another huge day, running for 363 yards and four scores on the ground, but lost two late fumbles to squander any hopes of a comeback. Georgia (5-2, 7-2) on the other hand is coming off of a dominant 63-31 thumping of Kentucky. The Bulldogs are still in play for the SEC East title, but can’t really afford another loss in their SEC finale against Auburn as they trail Missouri by a game. Nick Chubb has filled in for the suspended Todd Gurley just about as well as anyone could have possibly expected, as his worst day since taking over the starting role still featured 174 combined rushing and receiving yards and a score. The Tigers have looked good on the road, with tough wins at Kansas State and Ole Miss. Though the Bulldogs haven’t lost at home, look for Auburn to come out with a strong effort to avoid consecutive losses.
No. 18 Clemson at No. 24 Georgia Tech
Clemson (6-1 ACC, 7-2) has quietly put together a six game win streak, and sits just half a game back of the defending champs in the Atlantic division. Though they don’t really have any notable wins, it’s hard to fault the Tigers for their two losses, which were at Georgia and in overtime at Florida State. The defense has been playing well, allowing 20 points or less in five straight but more than half of those were against teams currently at or below .500. Georgia Tech (5-2, 8-2) has also yet to be truly tested, losing its only game against a currently ranked team a month ago at home to Duke. The offense has been heating up though, averaging 49 points over their last three games led by the nation’s
third best rushing attack. Three Yellow Jackets have eclipsed the 500 yard mark on the ground, with quarterback Justin Thomas on top with 781 yards and five touchdowns to go along with 14 through the air. Both teams need wins to stay in contention for a division title, but with both squads already suffering losses to the division leaders they may both already be out of play for that. Instead, the stakes appear to be the opportunity for the first big win for either side, as well as moving up a few spots before the final College Football Playoff rankings are released.
No. 8 Ohio State at Minnesota
With Nebraska-Wisconsin representing the only other matchup between two ranked teams, Minnesota (4-1 Big Ten, 7-2) has an opportunity to earn its way into the ranks if it can pull off the upset at home. At 4-1 in conference play, the Gophers also still have an outside shot at getting to the Big Ten championship game, but it’s difficult to project even two wins in their closing slate that has them travelling to Lincoln and Madison after hosting Ohio State (5-0, 8-1). Still, the Gophers have looked good this year losing only a pair of road games including at TCU. Tight end Maxx Williams caught three touchdowns last week in the surprising 51-14 beat down of Iowa last week, and running back David Cobb is ninth in the nation with 1205 yards. Ohio State is coming off last week’s massive 49-37 win at Michigan State, and now has a shot at sneaking into the Playoff. Quarterback J.T. Barrett had another huge day, passing for 300 yards and scrambling for another 86 with five total touchdowns. Leading the fourth highest scoring offense, which averages 46 points a game, Barrett’s 26 touchdowns through the air is good for a tie for fifth in the country. The Buckeyes will have to try to avoid a letdown after the big win against the Spartans which could present a challenge, but look for OSU to keep rolling.
