Sep 27, 2017

No. 14 Oklahoma State was brought back down to earth last week by TCU after three impressive early-season wins had Cowboys fans dreaming of a Big 12 title and possible berth in the College Football Playoff. Oklahoma State looks to get back on track with a ninth straight win against Texas Tech when they visit the Red Raiders on Saturday.

The Cowboys whipped up on Tulsa, South Alabama and Pittsburgh by a combined 110 points during the non-conference slate, but they stumbled at home last week 44-31 to then-No. 15 TCU. Meanwhile, Texas Tech forced five turnovers in its 27-24 win over Houston last week, and are second in FBS in turnover margin (plus 2.3 per game). "That's the key to our conference. You look at the teams that have won the league the last few years and they're way up there in the turnover margin, and that's where we're trying to get to give (ourselves) a chance in every game in the Big 12", Red Raiders coach Kliff Kingsbury told the media this week. In last year’s contest, Texas Tech rallied from a second half, double-digit deficit only to lose 45-44 on a missed extra point with 1:44 left in the game.

TV: 8 p.m. ET, Fox. LINE: Oklahoma State -9.5

ABOUT OKLAHOMA STATE (3-1, 0-1 Big 12): Mason Rudolph threw for 398 yards against the Horned Frogs but tossed two interceptions and lost a fumble, dashing his early-season push for the Heisman Trophy. The senior is completing 66.7 percent of his passes for 1,533 yards with 13 touchdowns and three interceptions. Wide receiver James Washington has 19 grabs for 520 yards and four TDs, averaging 27.4 yards per catch, while running backs Justice Hill (352 yards) and J.D. King (201 yards) combine to average nearly six yards per carry.

ABOUT TEXAS TECH (3-0, 0-0): The Red Raiders are ninth in scoring in FBS (45 points per game) and third in total offense (587.3), and its defense is yielding only 26.3 points – 17.2 fewer per game than last season's FBS-worst scoring defense. Quarterback Nic Shimonek has completed 92-of-125 passes for 1,248 yards with 11 touchdowns and one interception; his 85.9 QBR rank via ESPN is third-best in FBS, behind Oklahoma’s Baker Mayfield and Rudolph. Shimonek threw for 321 yards and two scores against Houston, hooking up with Keke Coutee 11 times for 161 yards.

EXTRA POINTS

1. In last season’s game, Rudolph passed for 395 yards and two TDs while Hill gained 126 yards on the ground. In 2015, Washington scored on 75 and 73-yard pass receptions in the fourth quarter as the Cowboys rebounded from an early 17-point deficit for a 70-53 win at Texas Tech.

2. Coutee has 28 catches for 446 yards and four scores, while WRs Dylan Cantrell and Derrick Willies have each topped 200 yards receiving with two scores apiece for the Red Raiders.

3. Rudolph became the school's all-time leader in total offense (10,250 yards), moving ahead of Zac Robinson, and also set a school record with his fifth consecutive 300-yard passing effort last week.

Preview: Ole Miss at Alabama

Gracenote
Sep 27, 2017

Top-ranked Alabama put forth a dominant effort in its last contest and looks to ride the momentum when it hosts Ole Miss on Saturday in SEC play. The Crimson Tide outgained Vanderbilt 677-76 during a 59-0 trouncing and look to remain unbeaten against the Rebels, who had a bye last weekend.

Alabama set a program record with 38 first downs against Vanderbilt but coach Nick Saban expects a tougher battle against well-rested Ole Miss. "This is a team that has beat us two out of the last three years, and we've played some shootout kind of games with them," Saban said at a press conference. "They've had two really good wins this year. They're fourth nationally in passing, and they make a lot of explosive plays." The Rebels, who are averaging 427 yards per game through the air, average 36 points per game and aim to continue the assault against an Alabama defense tied for fourth in scoring defense (10 points per game) and tied for seventh in total defense (248 yards per game). The Crimson Tide have yet to commit a turnover this season and have gone 30 consecutive quarters without one dating back to last November.

TV: 7 p.m. ET, ESPN. LINE: Alabama -28

ABOUT OLE MISS (2-1, 0-0 SEC): Sophomore quarterback Shea Patterson has passed for 1,281 yards and 11 touchdowns against four interceptions through the first three games with his lowest-yardage outing being a 363-yard showing in a loss to California. Sophomore A.J. Brown is the best of the receivers but the player with 16 receptions for 389 yards and four touchdowns is a game-day decision due to a sprained MCL in his left knee. Senior outside linebacker DeMarquis Gates leads the defense with 25 tackles but the unit is waiting for top-notch senior defensive end Marquis Haynes (25 career sacks) to pick up the pace -- he has just half a sack this season.

ABOUT ALABAMA (4-0, 1-0): Sophomore quarterback Jalen Hurts has passed for 550 yards and four touchdowns but continues to make his biggest impact as the team's leading rusher with 360 yards. Junior running back Damien Harris has 309 yards and six touchdowns after piling up a career-best 151 against Vanderbilt, while junior receiver Calvin Ridley (20 receptions, 262 yards) is tied for third in school history on the all-time receptions list (179) with current Atlanta Falcons star Julio Jones (2008-10). Junior free safety Ronnie Harrison and senior linebacker Shaun Dion Hamilton share the team tackle lead with 20 apiece.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Alabama recorded a 48-43 victory over Ole Miss last season after the Rebels prevailed in each of the previous two seasons.

2. The Crimson Tide rolled up 496 rushing yards in the demolishment of Vanderbilt.

3. Rebels junior C Sean Rawlings (left ankle) underwent surgery during the bye week and is unlikely to play.

Sep 27, 2017

At 4-0 and ranked No. 21 nationally, San Diego State owns the second-highest rank among teams outside the Power Five. The Aztecs will put that unblemished record and poll position on the line Saturday night when they host Northern Illinois, which will be looking for its second marquee road win after knocking off Nebraska 21-17 two weeks ago in Lincoln.


San Diego State has won 25 of its last 28 games overall, including back-to-back wins over the Pac-12’s Arizona State (30-20) and then-No. 19 Stanford (20-17) earlier this month. And after opening Mountain West play last Saturday with a 28-24 victory at Air Force, the Aztecs are now set for their first home game as a nationally ranked team since 1995. “(Being ranked in the) top 25 is recognition, but at the same time, it’s a target,” San Diego State safety Parker Baldwin said Tuesday. “It’s like a warrant for your arrest – everybody is coming for you – and Northern Illinois is definitely going to want to knock us off, especially after they knocked off Nebraska two weeks ago.” In between, the Mid-American Conference team had a bye week so the Huskies are sure to be rested and ready for their non-conference finale Saturday.
TV: 10:30 p.m. ET, CBS SportsNet. LINE: San Diego State -11


ABOUT NORTHERN ILLINOIS (2-1): The Huskies opened the season with a narrow 23-20 loss at Boston College but have since followed with a home blowout of FCS foe Eastern Illinois (38-10) and the 21-17 win at Nebraska, in which Northern Illinois returned a pair of interceptions for touchdowns in the opening quarter and then scored the winning TD in the fourth after the Cornhuskers had taken a 17-14 lead. Including a win over Kent State last season, sophomore Daniel Santacaterina is 3-0 as the starting quarterback and has completed 67.9 percent of his passes for 380 yards, three scores and an interception since taking over for injured starter Ryan Graham during the loss to Boston College. Defensively, the Huskies have allowed only 50 points, have intercepted six passes and feature the FBS leader in tackles for loss in defensive end Sutton Smith, who has 9.5, including three sacks.
ABOUT SAN DIEGO STATE (4-0): Senior running back Rashaad Penny notched his fourth straight 100-yard rushing game with 128 yards and a career high-matching three TDs against Air Force and ranks second nationally in rushing yards per game (179.0), all-purpose yards (230.0) and total TDs (nine). Penny’s presence has opened passing windows for quarterback Christian Chapman, who has completed 66.7 percent of his attempts for 660 yards, five scores and one interception. Baldwin (28) and fellow safety Trey Lomax (25) are the leading tacklers for a defense, which ranks in the top 35 nationally in points (19.5), passing (167.3) and total yards (291) allowed while standing 15th with a plus-1.25 average turnover margin.


EXTRA POINTS
1. San Diego State has won all five games in the series, including a 42-28 road victory last season in which Donnel Pumphrey ran for 220 yards and three TDs.
2. The Aztecs are 4-0 for the first time since 1981 and only the second time in the program’s last 42 seasons.
3. San Diego has won 34 straight games when rushing for 200 or more yards and will be up against a Huskies defense ranked 24th in the FBS at 97.7 yards per game.

Two teams looking to bounce back from Pac-12 opening losses meet Saturday as Oregon faces visiting California, which has played well under new coach Justin Wilcox, a former Ducks player. Cal was tied with USC entering the fourth quarter last Saturday before losing 30-20, while Oregon was 1-for-11 on third-down conversions in a 37-35 loss at Arizona State.

Senior linebacker Devante Downs has recorded 14 tackles in back-to-back games to lead a rejuvenated Cal defense, which has forced 11 turnovers, including six interceptions. “Very impressed,” USC coach Clay Helton told reporters after last week’s game. “The thing that just jumps off the page is their effort and the way they play. They are really becoming a physical football team. You can see that team is developing an identity.” The Bears opened the season with an impressive road win at North Carolina and will be tested again at Oregon, where the Ducks have won 10 of the last 11 meetings between the teams. The Bears will need to slow down an Oregon team that ranks first in the Pac-12 in scoring offense (50.8) behind star Royce Freeman’s 10 rushing touchdowns.

TV: 10:30 p.m. ET, Fox Sports 1. LINE: Oregon -13.5

ABOUT CAL (3-1, 0-1 Pac-12): After three sharp performances against North Carolina, Weber State and Ole Miss, sophomore quarterback Ross Bowers took a step back against USC, going 22-for-50 for 303 yards with one touchdown, four interceptions and two lost fumbles. Running back Tre Watson is out for the season with a knee injury, but junior Patrick Laird has been a capable replacement with three consecutive games of 78 or more yards rushing. Downs ranks fifth nationally with 11.5 tackles per game to lead a defense that is allowing 24 points per game after giving up an average of 42.6 points last season.

ABOUT OREGON (3-1, 0-1): The Ducks combined for more penalties (14) and punts (7) than first downs (20) against Arizona State, resulting in the first loss at Oregon for new coach Willie Taggart. Jalen Jelks had nine tackles, three sacks and five tackles for loss against the Sun Devils, but the Ducks’ secondary struggled to contain wide receiver N'Keal Harry, who caught seven passes for 170 yards and a score. Quarterback Justin Herbert engineered last week’s comeback effort by throwing for 281 yards and three scores despite missing one of his favorite targets in wide receiver Charles Nelson, who remains questionable with a sprained ankle.

EXTRA POINTS

1. Oregon’s seven-game winning streak over Cal was snapped with last season’s 52-49 loss.

2. The Bears are 10-of-13 on 4th-down conversions.

3. Oregon is averaging 10.5 penalties, which ranks 126th out of 129 Football Bowl Subdivision teams.

PREDICTION: Oregon 45, Cal 38

Preview: Colorado at UCLA

Sep 27, 2017

Colorado and UCLA got off to rough starts in Pac-12 play last weekend, and they'll try to turn things around when the Bruins host the Buffaloes at the Rose Bowl on Saturday night. Colorado is coming off a 27-point loss to No. 6 Washington in a mistake-prone game in Boulder, Colo. on Saturday, the same night the visiting Bruins were trampled by Stanford in a 58-34 loss.

UCLA has the most productive passing offense in the nation so far, averaging 451.8 yards a game, but the Bruins are last in total defense at 524.8 yards surrendered per game. UCLA has been especially porous against the run, giving up an average of 307.5 rushing yards per contest, which ranks last among 129 FBS teams. The Buffaloes are averaging 141.5 rushing yards and have a proven running back in senior Phillip Lindsay, who rushed for 1,252 yards and 16 touchdowns last season while helping Colorado advance to the Pac-12 championship game. Lindsay is averaging 111.5 rushing yards through four games this season, and should be eager to do better than the 68 yards he put up last week.

TV: 10:30 p.m. ET, ESPN2. LINE: UCLA -7.

ABOUT COLORADO (3-1, 0-1 Pac-12): The Buffaloes have a defense that can slow the Bruins down, especially in the red zone, where Colorado is tied for 10th in the nation after keeping opponent's scoreless in 5-of-8 trips inside their own 20-yard line this season. The Buffaloes are particularly strong at middle linebacker, where Drew Lewis averages 8.8 tackles a game, tied for fourth in the Pac-12, and Rick Gamboa is sixth at 8.5. Isaiah Oliver has been the top defensive back in the conference through the first four games, leading the Pac-12 with nine passes defended, including two interceptions.

ABOUT UCLA (2-2, 0-1): Josh Rosen continues to do his part to help the Bruins win games, but he can only contribute on one side of the ball. He leads the nation with 1,763 passing yards, 230 more than the next-closest quarterback, and is No. 1 in passing TDs (16), but the desperate situations he's been put in by the defense has forced him to gamble more than in the past. He's been intercepted twice in each of the past two games, both losses, and as a result his quarterback efficiency rating has dropped to 20th in the nation and fourth-best in the Pac-12.

EXTRA POINTS

1. UCLA is the only school in the country with three receivers averaging at least 100 yards per game; wide receivers Darren Andrews (114.2) and Jordan Lasley (106.7), and tight end Caleb Wilson (106.2).

2. Rosen has thrown a touchdown pass in a school-record 13 straight games.

3. Colorado is one of three teams in the country that has three receivers with more than 100 career receptions; Shay Fields (172), Devin Ross (118) and Bryce Bobo (114).

PREDICTION: Colorado 42, UCLA 41
