Preview: Michigan State at Rutgers

Nov 22, 2017

No. 22 Michigan State looks to make a final case for a possible New Year's Day bowl game when it travels to Rutgers for the regular-season finale for both squads Saturday. The Spartans are looking to finish strong after an ugly loss to Ohio State and a not-so-pretty win over Maryland, while the Scarlet Knights are hoping to get past last week's 41-point loss to Indiana.

Michigan State quarterback Brian Lewerke had back-to-back 400-yard passing games a couple weeks ago, but he struggled against the Buckeyes' defense and with the Michigan weather the last two games, finishing with a combined total of 151 yards through the air. The Spartans' defense comes off a strong performance in the win over Maryland, holding the Terrapins to 204 yards of total offense, and last season, MSU shut out Rutgers 49-0. The Scarlet Knights' offense has struggled to score in Big Ten play, finishing with 17 or fewer points in six of their eight contests. Quarterback Giovanni Rescigno is looking to bounce back from a difficult showing against Indiana, as he went 8-of-14 for 67 yards as Rutgers finished with 190 yards of total offense.

TV: 4 pm. ET. Fox. LINE: Michigan State -13.5

ABOUT MICHIGAN STATE (8-3, 6-2 Big Ten): The Spartans are hoping to get back to a balanced offense this week after last week's run-heavy attack because of snowy conditions in East Lansing. Running back LJ Scott had a career-high 29 carries for 147 yards and the Spartans rushed the ball 51 times compared to just 14 pass attempts. Lewerke even got into the act with 63 yards on the ground, though some better weather should bring back the Spartans' aerial attack that proved so potent against Northwestern and Penn State in late October and early November.

ABOUT RUTGERS (4-7, 3-5): There is some sentiment around the program that true freshman quarterback Johnathan Lewis should get the majority of the playing time under center against the Spartans. Lewis has played in four games this season, passing for 69 yards and rushing 32 times for 109 yards, but he's thought of as the team's quarterback of the future, and many are ready for the future to be now. Coach Chris Ash is still planning on starting Rescigno, but if the Knights struggle to move to ball early on, it wouldn't be surprising if Lewis comes into the game to provide a spark.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Michigan State DE Kenny Willekes tied his career high with two sacks and three tackles for loss against Maryland, and is currently tied for second in the Big Ten with 0.64 sacks per game.

2. Rutgers is 27th in the country in interceptions with 12, led by S Kly Hester and S Jawuan Harris, who each have three.

3. The Spartans' 20 yards passing against Maryland was the fewest in a single game since the team had 13 in a 1987 win over Iowa.

Preview: Temple at Tulsa
Gracenote
Nov 21, 2017

Temple needs a win to lock up a bowl berth when it visits Tulsa in the regular-season finale for both teams Saturday. The Owls will start Frank Nutile at quarterback despite his subpar game last week, when he threw four interceptions in a 45-19 loss against No. 12 Central Florida.




Even though Tulsa is 2-9, the Golden Hurricane played well last week battling No. 19 South Florida before eventually falling 27-20. “We are trying to go 1-0 and finish strong, and being senior day, it is a chance for us to go out with a win,” Tulsa coach Philip Montgomery said on a conference call. “That is our motivation, not trying to keep them from being bowl-eligible.” Temple has earned a bowl bid for the past three seasons, but was not selected to play in one in 2014.
TV: 4 p.m. ET, ESPN News. LINE: Temple -3

ABOUT TEMPLE (5-6, 3-4 AAC): Quarterback Logan Marchi has sat out the last three games with a lower-body injury and his availability against Tulsa remains in question. Nutile spelled Marchi and directed victories over Navy and Cincinnati, throwing for a combined 513 yards with five touchdowns and two interceptions. The Owls could be without wide receiver Ventell Bryant (shoulder) and top running back Ryquell Armstead (undisclosed), who continues to struggle as he gained only 72 yards on the ground in the past three games.
ABOUT TULSA (2-9, 1-6): Tulsa has lost four straight, but showed no quit last week when it held explosive USF to 82 second-half yards. Quarterback Luke Skipper scored on first-half runs of 12 and 9 yards for the Golden Hurricane, who blocked a punt to set up a 38-yard field goal that trimmed a 10-point deficit to seven points with 4:18 remaining. Running back D'Angelo Brewer rushed for 163 yards last week and has gone over the century mark each of the last four outings.

EXTRA POINTS
1. Skipper is questionable for the game with a concussion.
2. Tulsa's last victory was a 45-17 decision over Houston, a team which beat Temple 20-13.
3. Temple trails the series 2-1 but won the last meeting 35-24 in 2014 with the first two coming in the late 1980s.

Preview: Northwestern at Illinois
Gracenote
Nov 22, 2017

No. 23 Northwestern looks for its seventh straight win when it concludes the regular season on the road against Illinois in the battle for the Land of Lincoln Trophy on Saturday. The Wildcats are riding their longest winning streak since 1996 following a 39-0 rout of Minnesota, which vaulted Pat Fitzgerald's team into the Top 25 and kept it on track to win 10 games for the second time in three seasons.

Northwestern has scored 31 or more points in three of its last four games and hopes its offense continues to click as it searches for its third consecutive win in the rivalry with the Fighting Illini. Illinois is left to pick up the pieces after being held to 105 total yards in the 52-14 setback to eighth-ranked Ohio State. The Fighting Illini have dropped nine consecutive games under second-year head coach Lovie Smith and hope to give their fans something to cheer about by knocking off a ranked opponent for the first time since beating Minnesota 28-24 on Oct. 25, 2014. "We're down to one more game left in our football season and we're playing our rival," Smith told reporters. "So hopefully we get a couple of guys back and play better than we did on Saturday."

TV: 4 p.m. ET, Fox Sports 1. LINE: Northwestern -16.5

ABOUT NORTHWESTERN (8-3, 6-2 Big Ten): Justin Jackson racked up 166 yards on the ground in the win against Minnesota to become the sixth player in Big Ten history to reach 5,000 rushing yards. Linebacker Nate Hall was named the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week after recording seven tackles, 2.5 sacks, an interception and a fumble recovery against the Golden Gophers. "I'm having more fun than I've ever had playing this game," Hall told reporters. "I'm just doing my job out there but credit to the guys up front that made everything possible."

ABOUT ILLINOIS (2-9, 0-8): Freshman quarterback Cam Miller rushed for a nine-yard touchdown on his first collegiate snap and defensive back Ahmari Hayes took back a fumble 54 yards for his first career score in the loss to Ohio State. Chayce Crouch was limited to 16 yards on 4-of-14 passing before suffering an upper-body injury in the fourth quarter against the Buckeyes and is questionable for Saturday's clash. The Fighting Illini and Missouri, who haven't played each other since 2010, reached a four-year deal to renew their Border War rivalry starting in 2026.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Northwestern has won four consecutive home games.

2. Illinois has been held to 17 points or fewer in seven of its last eight contests.

3. Jackson is the second player in Big Ten history to rush for over 1,000 yards in four straight seasons.

Nov 22, 2017

Vanderbilt travels to in-state rival Tennessee on Saturday in a matchup of two teams who are not bowl eligible, winless in SEC play and, in the Volunteers’ case, are playing with an interim coach. Suffice to say whoever comes out on top Saturday will bring some level of satisfaction into what has been a difficult year, and the struggles for both teams can be traced to inconsistent offenses and leaky defenses.

Vanderbilt ranks 12th in the SEC and 104th nationally in points scored per game (23), while giving up 32 points per contest (12th in the league; 97th nationally). “It was one of those games where it was ugly,” Vanderbilt coach Derek Mason admitted to reporters after the Commodores gave up 28 second-quarter points in last week’s 45-17 home defeat to Missouri, losing for the seventh time in eight games. The Volunteers are averaging 19.5 points per game, last in the conference and 118th in the country, and defensively is not much better, allowing 27.9 points per game to rank 10th in the SEC. “I point out the things they didn’t do well,” Tennessee interim coach Brady Hoke told reporters after his first game as head coach, a 30-10 home loss to LSU. “You appreciate the effort and the toughness you want to see from them, and you challenge them.”

TV: 4 p.m. ET, SEC Network. LINE: Tennessee -1

ABOUT VANDERBILT (4-7, 0-7 SEC): The Commodores recorded 25 first downs last week but could not overcome three turnovers. Running back Ralph Webb finished with 55 yards Saturday, moving into ninth place on the SEC’s all-time rushing list while surpassing the 4,000-yard career mark. Quarterback Kyle Shurmur has passed for 22 touchdowns, tying the school record for most in one season.

ABOUT TENNESSEE (4-7, 0-7): Playing last week in a driving rainstorm, the Volunteers rushed for just 38 yards and two special-teams turnovers proved costly. Quarterback Jarrett Guarantano passed for 239 yards and a touchdown, but Tennessee could not get any closer than 17-10 at halftime in going scoreless in the second half. John Kelly, who leads Tennessee in rushing (758 yards), finished with just 47 yards on 25 carries.

EXTRA POINTS

1. The Commodores have surrendered an average of 46 points per game in their seven SEC losses.

2. Tennessee has allowed 26 or more points seven times in 11 games.

3. Vanderbilt has won three of the past five meetings against Tennessee, following a stretch where the Volunteers went 28-1 against the Commodores.

Preview: Arizona at Arizona State
Gracenote
Nov 22, 2017

The nation's oldest rivalry will have more meaning than usual when Arizona State hosts Arizona in a Pac-12 game on Saturday afternoon. Both teams enter their 91st meeting tied for second in the South Division behind USC, and second place would be the highest finish for either team since Arizona won the division in 2014.

The Wildcats have the most proficient offense in the Pac-12 and remain the only FBS team that averages at least seven yards per carry. Their run game is spearheaded by quarterback Khalil Tate, who has gained 1,325 yards on the ground, despite not becoming a full-time player until the fifth game. Both teams have struggled against the pass this season and sit at the bottom of the conference rankings, but Arizona State quarterback Manny Wilkins likely has good memories of his last game against Arizona, when he completed 43-of-58 passes for a career-high 372 yards and three touchdowns last season. The defense didn't have as much success and the Sun Devils lost 56-35 to finish the season with six consecutive defeats, but they'll have a lot more to play for Saturday.

TV: 4:30 p.m. ET, Pac-12 Network. LINE: Arizona -2.

ABOUT ARIZONA (7-4, 5-3 Pac-12): The Wildcats are also third in the FBS at 331.6 rushing yards a game, and Tate isn't the only player capable of picking up big chunks on the ground. J.J. Taylor is second on the team with 754 rushing yards and has surpassed 100 yards in two of the past four games. Nick Wilson, who has 534 rushing yards and six touchdowns this season, ran for 178 yards and three touchdowns in a 42-35 win against Arizona three years ago, but was held to seven yards the following season and didn't play against the Wildcats as a junior because of an injury.

ABOUT ARIZONA STATE (6-5, 5-3): The Sun Devils have one of the top receivers in the Pac-12 in N'Keal Harry, who is third in the conference in average receptions per game (6.3) and No. 1 in yards per game (87). He'll be looking to poke holes in an Arizona secondary that gives up an average of 287.3 passing yards, which is not only last in the Pac-12, but 124th out of 129 teams in the FBS. Wilkins completed 16 combined passes to running backs Demario Richard and Kalen Ballage in last season's loss to Arizona, and that gives Arizona State additional options in the passing game.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Arizona is second in the nation with 17 interceptions after intercepting eight last season.

2. The Wildcats have five players with at least one 100-yard rushing game this season.

3. Arizona State allows an average of 3.09 sacks a game. Only seven teams in the FBS give up more.

Preview: Oregon State at Oregon
Gracenote
Nov 22, 2017

Things are back on track at Oregon, which is now bowl-eligible a year after missing the postseason for the first time in 12 years. The same can’t be said for Oregon State – the lone Pac-12 team without a conference win – which visits Eugene on Saturday for the regular-season-capping Civil War game.


The Ducks entered last Saturday’s contest with Arizona having lost four of their previous five games to fall to 5-5 and put their bowl status in jeopardy. But behind quarterback Justin Herbert – who returned from a five-game absence resulting from a broken collarbone – and running back Royce Freeman’s four touchdowns, Oregon rolled the Wildcats 48-28 to become postseason-eligible in coach Willie Taggart’s first season. Up next on the Ducks’ to-do list is building some postseason momentum, avenging last season’s loss to the rival Beavers and sending the program’s seniors out with a victory in their home finale. “We’ve got the opportunity to finish this out the right way against our rival,” Taggart said Monday at his weekly news conference. “We haven’t played our best yet. I thought last week was close, but we have another opportunity to put it all together and play our best.”

TV: 7 p.m. ET, ESPN2. LINE: Oregon -25.5


ABOUT OREGON STATE (1-10, 0-8 Pac-12): The Beavers will miss the postseason for the fourth straight season and are looking to halt a nine-game losing streak and avoid their second winless conference season in the last three years. Junior Ryan Nall ran for 42 yards and a touchdown in last week’s 40-24 home loss to Arizona State and ranks seventh in the Pac-12 with 76.9 rushing yards per game. Senior quarterback Darell Garretson has thrown for more interceptions (6) than TDs (5), as the Beavers rank last in the Pac-12 in turnover differential (-11) and scoring offense (21.6 points per game) and defense (40.6 points allowed).

ABOUT OREGON (6-5, 3-5): Against Arizona, Herbert threw for 235 yards and a TD and added a 40-yard rushing score as he returned to action for the first time since his injury Sept. 30 against California. Freeman, meanwhile, notched his fifth-straight 100-yard rushing game with 135 on 19 carries and emphatically snapped a six-game TD-less streak with a quartet of rushing scores. Linebacker Troy Dye has notched a team-most tackles (95) and has 12.5 tackles for loss and four sacks for a defense which ranks in the middle of the conference pack in surrendering 29.9 points and 373.4 yards per outing.


EXTRA POINTS

1. Nall rushed for 155 yards and four TDs to spark Oregon State’s 34-24 home win over Oregon a season ago, snapping the Ducks’ eight-game series win streak.

2. The Beavers have dropped 18 straight road games dating back to a 2014 win at Colorado.

3. Penalties have been a problem for the Ducks, who were flagged 12 times for 117 yards vs. Arizona and lead the FBS with 99 penalties for 955 yards overall.

Third-ranked Clemson is in position to get back to the College Football Playoff, but before it can focus on the ACC Championship game, it has to take care of some business closer to home. The Tigers face another potential stumbling block when they visit rival South Carolina on Saturday.


The Gamecocks cracked the top 25 in the College Football Playoff rankings this week following a 31-10 victory over Wofford – their fifth win in six games. South Carolina has won five straight at home, and its fans will be fired up with a chance to end a three-game skid against the Tigers and knock its arch-rivals out of the playoff picture. “If you're going to have a good season, you've got to be able to go on the road and win. Our guys have done a heck of a job of that," Clemson coach Dabo Swinney told reporters. "We all know the emotion that's tied to this game, and this is one of the best weeks of the year. It's fun to be a part of it." The Tigers have won four straight following a 27-24 loss at Syracuse, including a 61-3 rout of The Citadel last week.

TV: 7:30 p.m. ET, ESPN. LINE: Clemson -13.5


ABOUT CLEMSON (10-1): The Tigers’ defense has been outstanding, ranking third nationally in scoring defense (13.9 points) and seventh in total defense (290.2 yards). The offense rolled up 662 total yards last week against The Citadel, including a season-high 479 through the air. Kelly Bryant has passed for 2,154 yards with 10 touchdowns and five interceptions, and he is one of three Tigers who have rushed for at least 600 yards - joining Travis Etienne and Tavien Feaster to comprise a trio that has produced 26 rushing touchdowns.

ABOUT SOUTH CAROLINA (8-3): The Gamecocks have taken on the hard-nosed defensive personality of coach Will Muschamp – they lead the SEC and are tied for 20th nationally with 21 takeaways, which they’ve turned into 76 points. The offense hasn’t been as consistent, but quarterback Jake Bentley has put together a solid campaign, passing for 2,429 yards with 15 touchdowns and nine interceptions. Fellow sophomore A.J. Turner has emerged as the team’s most reliable running back in recent weeks, rushing for 447 yards in his last five games after totaling 60 in the first six contests.


EXTRA POINTS

1. The Gamecocks are one of five FBS teams that have not allowed 30 or more points in a game this season (Alabama, Auburn, Troy and Wisconsin).

2. Clemson's Deon Cain has caught a pass in 34 consecutive games, while fellow WR Hunter Renfrow has a reception in 25 straight.

3. South Carolina has held 10 of its 11 opponents below their season scoring average, including five who scored at least 10 points below their mark.
