What’s Going To Happen

After its stunning comeback win over Buffalo, Kent State is now in the mix for a … bowl game? If it beat Ball State this week and Eastern Michigan next week, it’s at least eligible.

Ball State has lost three straight, but if it beats Kent State and takes down a Miami University team that’s already in the MAC title game – and probably won’t care about the regular season finale – then it’s eligible.

The Cardinals are getting the offense going, but the pass rush isn’t there for a defense that’s been hit-or-miss. On the plus side, they haven’t allowed a touchdown pass in the last four games, and just one so far in MAC play. However, the run defense has been hammered, giving up over 300 yards in two of its last three games.

Kent State’s run defense has been just a little bit worse, allowing 229 rushing yards or more in each of its last four games.

This might be an inspired Golden Flashes team with its FlashFast offense at home, but the Ball State ground attack that’s hit the 230-yard mark in each of its last four games is about to rumble for close to 300 in a stay-alive road win.

LPGA 2020 schedule reflects growth through record prize money, new Florida stops

he LPGA has released the 2020 schedule, which includes 33 official events and a record $75.1 million in prize money.

[jwplayer n5CyE75j-9JtFt04J]

The LPGA has released the 2020 schedule, which includes 33 official events and a record $75.1 million in prize money. There will be more than 500 hours of global television coverage, with at least seven events on network TV.

“As I enter my second decade as commissioner,” LPGA commissioner Mike Whan said in a statement, “we find ourselves in a new phase of the LPGA Tour. We’ve grown, but now we must flourish. We talk a lot about the next generation, but we will lift this generation.”

Whan recently signed a long-term contract extension with the LPGA.

With the LPGA schedule full and healthy, players now want to see purses increase. The most significant purse jump for 2020 comes from the KPMG Women’s PGA Championship, which will grow to $4.3 million, up $450,000 from 2019 and $1 million from when KPMG came on board in 2015.

Both the Meijer LPGA Classic and Dow Great Lakes Bay Invitational are up $300,000 to $2.3 million.

The Blue Bay LPGA event in China returns to the schedule after a one-year break, moving to the spring Asian swing. Earlier in the year, the LPGA announced two new Florida events. The first will take place in Boca Raton after the season-opening Diamond Resorts Tournament of Champions and the second will take place in Belleair, Florida, in mid-May. That gives the tour four stops in Florida, good news for so many of the players who call the Sunshine State home.

It’s also worth noting the gap in the schedule for the 2020 Olympic Games in Toyko. After the Evian Championship in late July, the tour takes a break for the Olympics before returning for three weeks in the United Kingdom starting with the Ladies Scottish Open, AIG Women’s British Open at Royal Troon and UL International Crown at the Centurion Club outside of London.

What’s Going To Happen

Wyoming is already bowl eligible, but as it’s learned from recent seasons, gong 6-6 doesn’t necessarily guarantee anything. It has a trip to Air Force next week, and a bowl isn’t a lock if the team finishes up the year on a four-game losing streak.

It needs that seventh win.

Colorado State has it tougher. It has to beat the Cowboys this week and Boise State next week to get eligible.

The Rams – despite just the four wins – are playing better. The offense has perked up, the passing punch is there, and the team is starting to look like the one it was supposed to be early on.

However, the offensive line is too leaky, gives up way too many plays in the backfield, and doesn’t generating nearly enough push for the running attack.

Wyoming might not have any sort of passing game to rely on, but in the home finale, the Mountain West’s No. 1 pass rush will take over on key downs, and the offense will grind out drives as it holds on to the ball for close well over half the game.

The Cowboy defense will do just enough to keep Patrick O’Brien and the Ram passing game in check – there won’t be anything from the ground attack to take over.

Washington (6-4) vs. Colorado (4-6) Game Preview

If want in on this week’s games, sign up with BetMGM


Why Washington Will Win

There’s no need to mess with this, and there’s no need to get cute.

The Huskies have had two weeks off since slugging their way through a 19-7 win over Oregon State on the road, and the exact same formula should work.

Start running, keep running, and pound, pound, pound.

The offensive line wasn’t able to do anything against the Utah defensive front, and the ground attack has been a bit hit-or-miss, but this isn’t hard.

When Washington runs more than 186 yards, it wins – 6-0. 186 or under? 0-4.

Most teams on the Colorado slate don’t like to commit to the ground game and wing it around the yard – and there’s a reason. The Buff secondary gives up a whole slew of big plays and allowed over 300 yards per game through the air. It’ll be tempting for UW to start throwing, but again, take control with the ground game and all will be fine.

Oregon ran early on, ended up getting a slew of defensive stops after a few decent drives, and finished with 252 rushing yards. Air Force? 284 yards – win. UCLA? 200 yards – win.

“Go to the bank!” Today’s top pick of the day just released

Why Colorado Will Win

Okay, QB Steven Montez. Time to come up with something special.

He’s 0-3 against the Huskies and hasn’t been able to get anything consistently going. If he’s not great, forget about it.

Part of the reason why Washington lost the games this year when it didn’t run wild is because it struggled against the decent passing days by the other side.

That wasn’t the case in the loss to Cal and its run D, but Oregon’s Justin Herbert was sharp, Utah’s Tyler Huntley was terrific, and Stanford got a stunning day out of backup Davis Mills, who came close to hitting 300 yards.

Herbert, Huntley and Mills happened to come up with the three biggest passing days of the season allowed by the Washington defense.

The magic mark this year seems to be 280 yards. Get there, beat the Dawgs. Montez has thrown for that or more four times this year, but even when he’s on, he’ll need his defense to do its part – it wasn’t able to do that when the Buff passing game worked against USC.

In the final home game of the year, and with two weeks off since the win over Stanford, it all has to work now to stay alive for a bowl game.

[lawrence-related id=500899]

What’s Going To Happen

Washington’s rested lines are going to take over early on.

It’s not going to get ugly – the Buffs will bring the energy at home – but they’re just not scoring enough. They haven’t cleared more than 16 points in four of their last five games, and they’re going to struggle to get into any sort of a rhythm this week.

Washington will run for well over 200 yards and have the ball for more than 35 minutes in a workmanlike win.

Utah (9-1) vs. Arizona (4-6) Game Preview

If want in on this week’s games, sign up with BetMGM


Why Utah Will Win

Oregon is sixth in the latest College Football Playoff rankings, Utah is seventh.

Shhhhhhhh, but Utah is playing better.

The defense has been a brick wall, stuffing everyone from Washington State to UCLA to Arizona State over a dominant six-game winning streak since losing to USC.

The Utah got past a nasty Washington team in Seattle in a 33-28 win. Other than that, the Ute D hasn’t allowed more than seven points in any game since the end of September.

Relatively healthy and playing air-tight on both sides of the ball, the Utes are owning third downs, they’re balanced with a brutally efficient attack, and they’re leading the nation in run defense.

It’s all working.

Arizona can wing the ball around a bit, but the defense doesn’t have a prayer of slowing down a red-hot Tyler Huntley, who’s among the nation’s most efficient passers averaging close to 12 yards per throw with 13 touchdowns and one lone interception.

Arizona has the nation’s second-worst pass defense and doesn’t generate a lick of a pass rush to help the cause.

“Go to the bank!” Today’s top pick of the day just released

Why Arizona Will Win

Wake up throwing, continue throwing during the pregame meal, get on the team bus throwing, get off throwing, keep throwing in the locker room, and don’t stop firing away no matter what.

There’s no prayer of running against this defensive front – Arizona State was the only team able to come up with more than 100 yards, and QB Jayden Daniels only completed 4-of-18 passes in the 21-3 loss.

However, even it’s not always effective, and even if it’s not always efficient, the Wildcats need their quarterbacks to keep pushing the Ute secondary that can be beaten.

Washington kept it close with Jacob Eason throwing 52 times for 316 yards and four scores in the 33-28 loss. USC won when Matt Fink went wacky hitting 21-of-30 passes for 351 yards and three scores. Both of those games were on the road for the Utes.

The Wildcats have been able to push for more than 350 passing yards four times this season – they have to make this a firefight in the final home game of the year. At least …

[lawrence-related id=500899]

What’s Going To Happen

The Arizona offense has to somehow keep up with what the Utah offense is about to do.

It’s been a disastrous run of five straight losses for Arizona after a 4-1 start, and it has to win this and beat Arizona State to go bowling. Utah won’t oblige.

The Ute lines will take over from the start, making up for a few big Arizona passing drives by rolling up and down the field with a balanced gameplan that won’t be slowed down.

The Utes need a win in this and a USC loss to UCLA to take the South and go off to play Oregon in the Pac-12 Championship, or they can win this and beat Colorado next week. The latter will happen.

Oregon State (5-5) vs. Washington State (5-5) Game Preview

If want in on this week’s games, sign up with BetMGM


Why Oregon State Will Win

On a terrific run of three wins in the last four games, the Beavers are a win away from going bowling – seemingly unthinkable two months ago.

How is this all happening?

The defense is cranking up one of the Pac-12’s best pass rushes – it leads the league in tackles for loss – and the offense has found something in each of the recent wins that worked.

It was the D that took over in the win over Cal a month ago that started this run, and it was the passing game that rocked Arizona in a stunning blowout in Tucson a week later.

When Jake Luton and the air show works, this becomes a balanced, effective team that can do a little of everything right.

The key is the ability to work the passing attack down the field and spring big things to the targets on the move. If that works, everything else falls into place. It’s what OSU is 3-1 – only losing in a fun battle with Stanford – when it averaged eight yards or more per pass.

The Washington State secondary allowed 8.6 yards per throw, including getting bombed on by Stanford for over 500 yards and ten yards per pass in last week’s game. However …

“Go to the bank!” Today’s top pick of the day just released

Why Washington State Will Win

Wazzu is used to getting into battles with lots and lots and lots of passing.

Yeah, Davis Mills of Stanford threw for 504 yards and three touchdowns last week.

And Anthony Gordon threw for 520 yards and five touchdowns in a 49-22 Cougar win.

For all the good things the Oregon State defense does to get into the backfield and hit the quarterback, it’s not helping out the pass D enough. There are way too many big plays allowed, there aren’t enough big plays from the secondary, and the defense is a rumor most of the time on third downs.

Washington State tends to lose when it stops itself. It lost in a wild firefight with Arizona State, but other than that, the other four losses came in the only four games when it lost the turnover battle.

Those losses were the only times all season when the Cougars turned it over two times or more – 12 of the 16 turnovers on the season were in those games – and Oregon State doesn’t do much to force mistakes.

The Beavers are brilliant at not screwing up – they lead the nation in fewest turnovers with a mere four – but they’ve only picked off five passes on the season.

[lawrence-related id=500899]

What’s Going To Happen

The winner of this game goes bowling, and the loser will have a rough time getting to six wins with Wazzu playing Washington next week and Oregon State finishing up with Oregon.

Washington State is a different team at home.

There was the meltdown over the final 19 minutes against UCLA. That’s the only blemish in a 4-1 season in Pullman. In the final home game of the season, the Cougars go out with a win in a terrific game with more than 700 yards or passing and a whole lot of big plays from both sides.

Like it was last week against Stanford, Wazzu’s passing game will be a wee bit better.

Cal (5-5) vs. Stanford (4-6) Game Preview

If want in on this week’s games, sign up with BetMGM


Why Cal Will Win

Stanford isn’t going to be able to run.

It’s simple. The Cardinal can throw – more on this in a moment – but it wins games when the ground attack works even a little bit.

They’ve won four games this year, and three of them were their best rushing performances so far, coming up with 132 yards or more in those three. Essentially, running well is a must to get this done.

It is possible to run a wee bit on this Bear defensive front, but it has allowed 107 yards or fewer in three of its last four games, and Arizona State were the only teams that committed hard to the ground attack and made it work.

Offensively, Cal has to simply keep things moving.

It’s not going to hit a slew of home runs, but it should be able to roll on third downs against a defense that can’t seem to come up with a key stop.

“Go to the bank!” Today’s top pick of the day just released

Why Stanford Will Win

Okay, Davis Mills. Do that again.

Star QB KJ Costello hasn’t been right all season long, but Mills was able to step in and beat Washington and Oregon State, and he stepped up against Washington State last week and threw for 504 yards and three scores …

And lost. Badly.

The Cardinal should’ve been able to run at will on the Cougar defense – it ran ten times or six yards – and instead it got into a firefight with Wazzu throwing for 520 yards and five scores, and …

Cal isn’t going to throw for 520 yards and five scores with Devon Modster at quarterback.

Chase Garbers has been banged up, and he tried to give it a go, but he was out against USC. Modster was able to beat Washington State with a sharp 230-yard, three-score passing day, but he struggled against everyone else, including in the loss to the Trojans with two picks.

Stanford isn’t going to be able to run, but the Cal secondary has been getting hit really, really hard.

Washington State bombed away for 407 yards and two scores, and USC’s Kedon Slovis hit 83% of his passes for 406 yards and four touchdowns.

Mills has to bomb away and hope the Cardinal are on the right side this week.

[lawrence-related id=500899]

What’s Going To Happen

Both teams are sinking.

Cal has lost five of its last six games and needs just one more win to go bowling, and it’s not going to happen this week – it’ll have to try getting it done at UCLA.

Mills will outplay Modster.

The Bear pass defense isn’t playing well enough, Stanford’s passing game will be just enough to force Modster to push the offense a bit, and it’ll be an interesting win that puts it in position to get bowl eligible if it can get by Notre Dame next week.

Why UCLA Will Win

Can Joshua Kelley recreate the magic?

The Bruin back took the team over in last year’s 34-27 win over USC with 40 carries for 289 yards and two touchdowns. Held in check last week in the 49-3 blowout loss to Utah – he ran for just 78 yards – this has to be his game to take over against a good Trojan run D.

It is possible, though, to pound away on this group. It’s going to take the best performance of the year by a leaky UCLA offensive front, but before last week, the team hit the 200-yard rushing mark in five straight games with 12 scores.

Kelley had a whole lot to do with that.

The Bruin secondary will have a bit of a rough day, but the defensive front hasn’t been all that bad, and it has to bring enough pressure right away. There’s been a big improvement this year when it comes to defensive plays behind the line, but …

Why USC Will Win

The increased pressure from the Bruin D isn’t leading to takeaways and mistakes.

USC has had its problems at times with giveaways, going 1-4 when turning it over three times or more, but UCLA has only come up with four turnovers – and no more than one in any game – in the last six outings. Worse yet, six of the team’s 12 takeaways came in the wild win over Washington State.

UCLA has failed to come up with multiple takeaways eight times in ten games. It’ll need to do something big to slow down the USC passing attack.

Kedon Slovis has been as hot as any quarterback in the country over the last two games, connecting on 58-of-74 passes (78%) for 838 yards and eight touchdowns with one pick. In his last four games he’s thrown 15 touchdown passes, with the one blip coming in the three-pick game in the loss to Oregon.

The UCLA secondary that’s the third-worst in college football in pass efficiency D doesn’t come up with interceptions – just one in the last six games – and it’s fresh off of getting roasted by Utah’s Tyler Huntley for close to 18 yards per throw.

What’s Going To Happen

UCLA is playing for its bowl life. It needs to win this week and take out Cal next week to get to six wins and go bowling.

Can it defy all logic and reason like it did last year and put together something special in its biggest game of the season?

Not this time.

The USC defense won’t be able to totally shut down Kelley, but it’ll do just enough to force the Bruin passing game to take over as the game goes on. It’s not going to work.

USC will press too much early on, but it’ll settle down, the passing game will kick in, and the receivers will be the stars of the second half as Slovis comes up with yet another four touchdown performance.
