Through five weeks of the college football season, the national championship picture feels wide open.
Though teams like Michigan, Texas and Oregon played very well on Saturday, a truly dominant team has not emerged so far this season. And several of the top teams in the country showed serious cracks in the foundation this weekend.Georgia just does not look like its same dominant self. When you’re the two-time defending national champion, you’re held to a different standard.
USC’s lack of physicality and tackling ability was exposed in losses to Utah and Tulane at the end of last season and there’s reason for concern after Saturday’s 48-41 win over Colorado. The Trojans had the game won in the first half, but the Buffaloes had far too easy of a time gaining yards and breaking tackles in the second half as USC was forced to recover an onside kick with 1:43 to go to ensure the win.
That figure is up to 12 now, but the lack of explosiveness in the run game is a major concern. The longest run of the season for Penn State is 21 yards, and that came in garbage time by backup QB Beau Pribula. Additionally, Keandre Lambert-Smith has been the only wideout to emerge as a consistent target for Allar. With a bye week and UMass coming up, PSU needs to figure some things out before the trip to Ohio State on Oct. 21.
