Manning Leads Unbeaten Longhorns Into Dallas
All eyes will be on Arch Manning, the signal-caller for the unbeaten No. 1 Texas Longhorns, as they face an Oklahoma squad desperate for a win after getting smacked 41-13 by Georgia. Manning’s been slingin’ it, hitting 14 of 19 passes for 201 yards, though with one interception, in Texas’ 20-17 win at Tennessee. He’s stacked up 862 passing yards and seven touchdown passes through four games, including a ridiculous four TDs in that 59-7 obliteration of Texas State where he threw for 305 yards. He’s got three interceptions on the season and has added 82 yards on the ground. The Longhorns defense is no joke either, allowing just 53 points through four games, an average of 13.3 per game. They stifled Texas State to just 7 points and UTSA to 6 points. Rasheem Biles is leading that defensive charge with two interceptions and 27 tackles.
On the other side, Oklahoma’s looking to rebound. Their QB, Mateer, put up 231 yards and two touchdowns, with one interception, in that tough 41-13 loss to Georgia. Mateer has 883 passing yards and eight touchdowns on the season, including 238 yards against New Mexico, but he’s also thrown four interceptions in four games. He did throw for three touchdowns against UTEP and has 76 rushing yards. The Sooners’ defense has allowed 64 points through four games, averaging 16.0 per game, and has racked up 13 sacks, tied for 31st nationally. Adepoju Adebawore is a key man there, leading Oklahoma with 2.5 sacks. They’re going to need him to step up if they want to slow down Manning and pull off an upset after their 17-10 loss at Michigan.
Undefeated SEC Showdown: Alabama vs. Georgia
Over in the SEC, buckle up for a true clash of titans. No. 6 Alabama and No. 2 Georgia are both sitting pretty at 5-0 overall and 3-0 in SEC play. This is a massive showdown with everything on the line. Georgia’s Gunner Stockton has been lights out, completing 25 of 32 passes for 295 yards and three touchdowns, with zero interceptions, in their 38-14 win over Vanderbilt. Stockton has racked up 1,049 yards and 13 touchdowns through five games, including a five-touchdown performance against Western Kentucky. He’s also added 122 rushing yards. For Alabama, Keelon Russell headlines their attack.
Alabama’s defense is bringing the heat, too. They’ve got 16 sacks this season, tied for ninth nationally, and their turnover margin is a sweet plus-7, tied for eighth. Devan Thompkins is leading Alabama in that department. This game is going to be an absolute slugfest between two teams that haven’t tasted defeat yet.
This Saturday is set to be legendary with these two games potentially redefining the entire college football landscape.
