deskgameIn the first round of the CFP, the Fighting Irish (12-1) stifled the highest-scoring offense in the CFP field while scoring a 27-17 win over Indiana. Sack leader Rylie Mills suffered a knee injury, though, and will miss the Sugar Bowl. The defense has spurred Notre Dame’s 11-game winning streak and worked through other notable injuries to keep the team on a regular winning path. deskgameTexas’ only two losses this season came against Georgia, and the Bulldogs didn’t give QB Quinn Ewers much time in the pocket. UGA racked up 13 total sacks, but that won’t be an issue against Arizona State. Pressuring the QB is a weakness for a Sun Devils’ defense that only has 21 sacks. deskgameA.J. Brown is also dealing with an injury and missed practice earlier this week. The Eagles will need their leading receiver to make a Super Bowl run, and Brown being less than 100% should impact Hurts’ production. deskgameYoungblood transferred in from South Florida, where he was the AAC’s co-player of the season in 2023-24. The Tuscaloosa native missed the first nine games of the year, but has slowly worked his way back in the past four matchups. Alabama will need its role players to step up when the team treks through a gauntlet SEC schedule, and Youngblood is a player to watch.
