College Football: 25 Bold Predictions for Top 25 in Week 10
Bold Predictions: Saquon Barkley breaks Michigan State with 250 all-purpose yards. Michigan State hasn’t allowed a running back to exceed 65 yards rushing this season. Barkley had a season low 44 rushing yards against Ohio State. Which is more likely to happen, a stifling Spartan performance or the Heisman front-runner making a splash? I’m taking Barkley.
Bold prediction: Kelly Bryant starts to earn some Heisman mentions. It’s only going to be a matter of time before the Tigers’ continued dominance earns Bryant some love. He’s one of the best offensive players on a team that is well positioned for another College Football Playoff run.
Bold Predictions: The Notre Dame defense registers six sacks. Wake Forest is the weakest opponent that the Irish have left on their schedule. The rushing attack of Josh Adams and Brandon Wimbush will get their yards and points, but it will be the Irish defense that has the most impressive performance of the day. Wake Forest topped 600 yards of total offense last weekend. They’re not coming close to that in Week 10.
Bold Predictions: Tony Fumagalli grabs two touchdowns. Alex Hornibrook hasn’t been stellar so far this season. The truth is, when you have Jonathan Taylor in the back field you don’t have to be. Taylor left last week’s game with an injury, forcing Wisconsin to find a Plan B. There really wasn’t much of a good answer. If this team is going to contend for the Playoff they need to find a passing game, and that starts Saturday with their elite tight end.
