WEEK 5 OUTLAND TROPHY MATCHUPS PRESENTED by the NATIONAL FOUNDATION for INFECTIOUS DISEASES OHIO STATE at PENN STATE, 8 P.M IN THE TRENCHES: WEEK 5 OUTLAND TROPHY MATCHUPS PRESENTED BY THE NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR INFECTIOUS DISEASES OHIO STATE AT PENN STATE, 8 p.m. ET on ABC This week our Outland Trophy sojourn takes us to Happy Valley, where these two titans meet in a game that is sure to have conference championship and College Football Playoff implications. Buckle up for this prime-time gem – it’s a matchup that offers the nation’s top two scoring offenses with players on the preseason Outland Trophy Watch List in both lineups. These two programs always feast on their potent ground games, but this season Ohio State has added one of the nation’s best passing attacks to date, and it’s the men up front helping to make it happen. The Buckeyes have put up 40 or more points and 500 or more yards in each of their first four games and are No. 3 nationally in total offense (599.0 yards per game), No. 2 in scoring offense (54.5 points per game) and No. 6 in passing offense (365.8 yards/game). Junior center Michael Jordan (Canton, Mich.) has Ohio State rolling at unprecedented clips in the first month of the season, scoring 30 touchdowns so far, with 12 of them coming on plays of 20 yards or more. Senior captain and right tackle Isaiah Prince (Greenbelt, Md.) has steadied the pass protection, giving quarterback Dwayne Haskins plenty of time to operate. Haskins has a Big Ten-leading 16 touchdowns, and he’s the first quarterback in Big Ten history to throw for five touchdowns twice in the first four games of the season. Jordan (6-7, 310 pounds) has started 31 consecutive games, 27 at left guard and now four at center this season. He was the first true freshman to start on the offensive line since the Buckeyes’ last Outland Trophy winner, Orlando Pace, in 1994 (Pace won the Outland in 1996). Prince (also 6-7, 310) has played in 41 straight games and has started 30 in a row. While Ohio State leads the Big Ten in total offense and passing offense, Penn State has the top spot in scoring offense (55.5 points per game) and rushing offense (275.0 yards per game). Junior right guard Connor McGovern (Larksville, Pa.) and junior left tackle Ryan Bates (Warrington, Pa.) have provided superior protection for quarterback Trace McSorley, who has 19 career games with a rushing touchdown and a passing touchdown. Both players have 26 career starts – McGovern’s are consecutive coming into Saturday. Among their tasks will be to contain Ohio State defensive tackle Dre’Mont Jones (Cleveland, Ohio), a beast on the line who has already totaled 14 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, three sacks and an interception return for a touchdown. His 28-yard pick-six turned the game around the last time Ohio State played in prime time two weeks ago against TCU, and he added six tackles, two for loss, and had a sack. STANFORD AT NOTRE DAME, 7:30 p.m. ET on NBC There will be five other players from the Outland Trophy Watch List on the field in South Bend, where the Cardinal and the Fighting Irish meet for the first time when both are ranked in the Associated Press Top 10. Notre Dame defensive tackleJerry Tillery (Shreveport, La.) has been a terror in opponents’ backfields, and came up with two key plays in the Irish’s season-opening win over Michigan with a sack on a second-and-goal play and forcing a fumble that became the game-clinching turnover. Tillery has 31 career starts and has 3.5 tackles for loss this season. Up front of offense, Notre Dame boasts left guard Alex Bars (Nashville, Tenn.) and center Sam Mustipher (Olney, Md.), two team captains who helped the Irish take and hold the lead for its first 190 minutes of play this season until a Wake Forest field goal at the end of the first quarter last week. The line play has pushed the Irish to 16 touchdown drives this season, 12 of which have covered 70 or more yards. Stanford loves to run the ball, and has 194 rushing touchdowns in David Shaw’s 99 games as head coach, an average of almost two per game. The Cardinal has has 45 rushing touchdowns in its past 22 games with center Jesse Burkett (St. Augustine, Fla.) and right guard Nate Herbig (Kalaheo, Hawaii) paving the way. Burkett has started at center in 28 consecutive games. Herbig has 13 consecutive starts, with a start at right tackle in last week’s comeback win at Oregon but is slated back at right guard Saturday. Stanford has had success up front against Notre Dame. In two career games against the Irish, running back Bryce Love has accounted for 254 rushing yards and 5.9 yards per rush. OTHER MATCHUP OF NOTE ... • Michigan at Northwestern, 4:30 p.m. ET on FOX: Another Big Ten battle where Northwestern and right guard Tommy Doles (Grand Rapids, Mich.) seek their first 2-0 start to conference play since 2000. Doles has started 28 consecutive games on the right side of the line and the team captain has earned All-Big Ten honors the past two seasons. Michigan has found its offensive groove with left guard Ben Bredeson (Hartland, Wis.), who has a team-leading 24 career starts. Michigan has perhaps the nation’s most balanced offense, gaining 848 yards on the ground and 835 through the air through four games.

  • 2020 Buffalo Fanatics Draft Prospectus
    2020 Buffalo Fanatics Draft Prospectus Director of College Scouting Steve Mathes _ @JudgeMathes Positional Outlook Quarterback Buffalo is not going to look to rock the boat by bringing in a legitimate threat to Josh Allen’s job, they believe in him as the franchise QB. Players Met With or “Linked-To” Likewise, they don’t appear to be looking to challenge Matt Barkley as a James Morgan - Florida International back-up either. He has a great relationship with Allen, isn’t threatening his job, and brings traits Allen doesn’t have like anticipatory throwing they hope will rub off on him. That leaves Davis Webb, the practice squad QB, as the only one at real risk of competition. The Bills met with Morgan, but this was before his stock significantly heated up. If the Bills decide to challenge Webb look for a UDFA QB to be the guy to do it. Running Back The Buffalo Bills have only two viable runners on their roster currently in Devin Singletary and TJ Yeldon. They will look to add a third to this tandem to replace Players Met With or “Linked-To” the departed Frank Gore. Cam Akers - Florida St. Gore was known as the “bruiser”. When he was on the field defenses tended to JK Dobbins - Ohio St. know what was coming. It appears from their list of potential targets the Bills Clyde Edwards-Hellaire - LSU are looking to buck that trend. Darrynton Evans - Appalachian St. Zack Moss - Utah On their list are mostly “All-Purpose Backs” and one guy who is all traits (SPEED) D’Andre Swift - Georgia in Darrynton Evans.

So does the look. Meyer has always had a look about him that says he is intense, passionate and definitely in charge. But rather than being off-putting, it is also a look that draws people to him. Dennis Wendel, who was on Meyer’s first Bowling Green team, described it this way not long after Meyer was hired at Ohio State in 2012: “The first thing I remember about him is his walk when he walked into the room (at Bowling Green). As soon as he walked into the room, he defi- nitely had a presence about him. He commanded the room immediately,” he said. Meyer arrived at Ohio State with a presence as a known quantity and with two national championships, including a 41-14 thumping of OSU in the 2006 title game, in his pocket.

  • Diese Spieler Wurden Zum NFL Combine 2019 Eingeladen
    Diese Spieler wurden zum NFL Combine 2019 eingeladen Insgesamt 338 Spieler werden vom 26. Februar bis zum 4. März am NFL Scouting Combine teilnehmen. Die NFL veröffentlichte die komplette Spielerliste der Combine Teilnehmer. Vor dem Scouting Combine herrscht die Meinung vor, dass man sich in der ersten Runde des diesjährigen Drafts wohl vor allem um Defense Talente streiten wird.
