Michigan quarterback J.J. McCarthy points as he prepares to take the snap during an NCAA college football game against Michigan State, Saturday, Oct. 21, 2023, in East Lansing, Mich. The Wolverines are 9-0 and No. 3 in the latest College Football Playoff rankings, but the level of competition on the schedule to this point has been lackluster. Michigan hasn’t faced a single ranked team and its average margin of victory has been a remarkable 34 points per game.
Penn State has one of the best defenses in the country and Beaver Stadium will represent the toughest road environment McCarthy and the Wolverines have faced by a significant margin this season. Penix had another strong game, completing 22-of-30 passes for 256 yards and two touchdowns with an interception. Penix has had to carry a heavy load throughout the season, but UW was able to lean on Dillon Johnson and the running game against the Trojans as he racked up 256 yards and four touchdowns.
This weekend, Nix has the chance to add to his stats against the porous USC defense. The Ducks also have a trip to Arizona State before closing out the regular season at home vs. Oregon State. If Oregon keeps winning, it will likely get a rematch with Washington in the Pac-12 title game. LSU has a 6-3 record this season, but where would the Tigers be without Daniels? The defense has been a massive disappointment, but Daniels has managed to keep his team competitive in nearly every game. If he finishes the season strong, he has a great chance to get to the Heisman ceremony in New York City. He'll certainly have earned it.It feels like Florida State QB Jordan Travis is looming in the background of the Heisman race. FSU is 9-0 and No.
