The Week 4 college football slate features many key divisional showdowns, Michigan seeking to improve a bottom-five strength of schedule and ND's struggle back to a .500 record.
Michigan State shockingly fell out of the AP Poll last week from #11 overall after losing to a Washington team on the road that went on to enter the rankings themselves the next day, but Mel Tucker remains determined to keep the Spartans on the right track. MSU enters as one of only 26 teams at the FBS level conceding less than 90 rushing yards per game, so today will be a solid test to see if the Golden Gophers' ground attack holds up against stiffer competition.
It hardly gets any easier for the Buckeyes' opening opponent this week, as the Fighting Irish now travel to North Carolina to take on a Tar Heels unit averaging the 20th-most passing yards and fifth-most points per game in college football through three weeks. After a bye next week, Notre Dame will face off with #19 Brigham Young, which – if they lose today – could very well lead to a situation where the Golden Domers have a 1-4 record heading into mid-October.
But Washington State wants to make some noise of its own on the West Coast, and the Cougars have already done so a bit nationally after scoring a shocking road upset over Wisconsin in Week 2 by a final score of 17-14. Wazzu has left much to be desired on offense, but they are allowing the 28th-fewest rushing yards per game to opponents at the moment, so an uncomfortable afternoon for an Oregon team away from home may not be entirely out of the question.
After some heavy turbulence following a Week 2 loss to Appalachian State, the Aggies had a bit of a bounce-back last week in scoring a 17-9 victory over the formerly top-15 Miami Hurricanes. Fisher opted to make a quarterback change in favor of junior Max Johnson, and while the shift did not quite yield lucrative results, A&M did much better with respect to time of possession and achieving first downs than the previous outing.
Meanwhile in Fayetteville, though Arkansas got off to a nice start this season with a win over Cincinnati, the Razorbacks needed a comeback effort last week to take down FCS Missouri State. The double-digit recovery included a go-ahead punt return touchdown in the fourth quarter that helped make up for Arkansas losing the turnover battle by a 3-0 margin.
