Week 1 College Football Showdowns: Which Underdogs Could Shock the Nation?

Week 1 College Football Showdowns: Which Underdogs Could Shock the Nation?

USC has suffered from lousy linebacker play so far under Riley, but Mascarenas-Arnold is a ray of hope. His 13.3% run disruption rate and 26.8% pressure rate on limited pass-rushing snaps made him one of the country’s most well-rounded linebackers last year. The Trojans are ranked a not-too-shabby 17th in D-TRACR against the pass heading into the season.

The LSU story, meanwhile, really should be all about the QB. Garrett Nussmeier, a former blue-chip prospect, takes over for Heisman winner Jayden Daniels in Louisiana. Nussmeier will not replicate anything close to Daniels’ production as a runner, but he did a nice Daniels impression as a passer in limited reps last season. Most encouraging, he took good care of the ball, throwing just one “pickable pass” on 75 attempts.
