NCAAF: Week 4 Top-25 Showcase – 3 Ranked vs Ranked Matchups (Sep 20)
Pick rationale
Analysis & key factors
Week 4 of the college football season features three more exciting games featuring ranked teams vs ranked teams. Check out our picks for each game!
Game 1: #17 Texas Tech @ #16 Utah
This game is likely to have Big-12 title game implications. Utah’s impressive win over UCLA is less so now that the Bruins are 0-3, but they’ll be tough to take down in front of their home crowd. This should be a competitive game, but I like Tech’s chances of securing the upset.
– 𝗧𝗲𝘅𝗮𝘀 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝟯𝟰, 𝗨𝘁𝗮𝗵 𝟯𝟭
Game 2: #22 Auburn @ #11 Oklahoma
The SEC fields even more ranked teams this week with Auburn climbing to #22. They face the Sooners on the cusp of the top-10, who have gotten off to their best start in a while. This will be the toughest test so far for Washington State transfer QB John Mateer, but I see Oklahoma winning a close bout.
– 𝗢𝗸𝗹𝗮𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗮 𝟮𝟲, 𝗔𝘂𝗯𝘂𝗿𝗻 𝟮𝟬
Game 3: #9 Illinois vs #21 Indiana
Illinois climbed into the top-10 this week, continuing to reastablish their program as a CFP contender. Indiana did the same last season with a CFP berth, but it’s still uncertain how much of that success they can retain this season with a lot of moving pieces. Expect this to be a very loud, defensive battle in Indiana.
