Deep dives
Notre Dame vs Ohio State
The game lived up to the hype, with Notre Dame having a chance to win in the final seconds. However, a coaching error by Marcus Freeman, with only 10 players on the field, cost them the game. This loss could potentially impact their chances of making the college football playoffs.
Ohio State's win and struggles against physical teams
Ohio State's win against Notre Dame is significant as they have struggled against big physical teams like Michigan in the past. They found a way to win in a tough and physical matchup, which bodes well for their future.
Comparing Marcus Freeman's error and Josh McDaniels' decision
While both Marcus Freeman's coaching error and Josh McDaniels' decision had significant consequences, McDaniels' decision to kick a field goal against Pittsburgh may be viewed as worse because it falls more on his responsibility as the head coach. However, both decisions were disappointing and costly in their respective games.
Oregon Ducks dominate Colorado in a mismatched game
The Oregon Ducks showcased their dominance in a mismatched game against Colorado, scoring touchdowns on six of their first seven possessions. While Oregon proved their status as a top 10 team, Colorado struggled to keep up, starting the game with eight consecutive punts. Head coach Dan Lanning took the game personally, determined to remind everyone that Oregon is a program powerhouse. Though Colorado has shown improvement under Coach Deion, they still have a long way to go to compete with established programs like Oregon.
Florida State snaps losing streak against Clemson
Florida State emerged victorious, snapping their seven-game losing streak against Clemson. Quarterback Jordan Travis made a clutch play, connecting with wide receiver Keon Coleman for a 24-yard touchdown that sealed the game. Travis has proven to be a standout player, making big plays in crucial moments. With upcoming games against other ranked opponents, Florida State has a chance to make a run for the college football playoff. While Clemson remains a strong team, they will need to improve their offensive system to reach their full potential.
