The one two video games with ranked groups each come within the SEC and likewise function elimination video games for each the SEC Championship and the School Soccer Playoff. No. Three Georgia visits No. 16 Ole Miss within the afternoon, earlier than No. 11 Alabama to tackle LSU no. 14.
With the SEC set to dominate the day, look no additional than the Large 12. No. 9 BYU is alone in first place and poised to resume its rivalry with Utah, whereas No. 20 Colorado performs at Texas Tech in a sport that can severely harm the convention title hopes of the loser.
Right here's what we're watching this week. All occasions are Japanese and all odds are from BetMGM.
This sport may come right down to which quarterback performs higher. Whereas Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart has moved into the Heisman dialog in current weeks, Georgia's Carson Beck has taken a step again, throwing 11 INTs over the previous 5 video games. Beck has proven up when Georgia wants him, and a frenetic defensive entrance may pose an issue for the Rebels, because it did when these groups met final yr.
Clemson laid an egg final week at residence towards Louisville and now in all probability must win out to have a shot on the ACC title sport. Can Clemson's offense get again on monitor towards a Virginia Tech protection that permits opposing QBs to finish simply 56 p.c of their passes? Virginia Tech QB Kyron Drones and RB Bhayshul Tuten may return to motion after lacking final week's sport with accidents.
With how Texas Tech's season has gone, this will probably be a detailed sport. 5 of the Crimson Raiders' six convention video games have been determined by one rating. However the protection was damaged by the opposing defenders. That might be excellent news for Colorado QB Shedeur Sanders and a high-flying offense.
The loser is unquestionably out of the School Soccer Playoff race with a 3rd loss, barring a loopy end to the season. Will LSU's protection have the ability to maintain up towards dual-threat Alabama QB Jalen Milroe? Alabama might want to have much more composure than it did in its final highway sport. The Crimson Tide has been penalized 69 occasions in eight video games. The nighttime crowd at Tiger Stadium received't make issues straightforward.
The 2 bitter rivals meet for the primary time since 2021 and for the primary time as members of the Large 12. Utah is in determined want of a win after shedding its final 4 Large 12 video games, and the Utes would like to spoil their good season of BYU. The Cougars' skill to drive turnovers is an enormous cause for his or her Eight-Zero document. Can they proceed this week within the Holy Struggle?
