Utah Utes

Rob Gray-USA TODAY Sports

Week 4: Utah 14, UCLA 7

Utah’s physical defense absolutely dominated UCLA. The Utes had a pick-six and showed some offensive limitations. Utah could get back star quarterback Cam Rising soon, which would be a massive boost for the Utes.

9
Oregon Ducks

The Register Guard

Week 4: Oregon 42, Colorado 6

Colorado was a fun story to start the season, but Oregon set the Buffaloes, who went 1-11 last season, back to reality. Quarterback Bo Nix and the Ducks are contenders in the Pac-12, which is looking like an elite conference right now.

Washington Huskies

Joe Nicholson-USA TODAY Sports

Week 4: Washington 59, California 32

Ignore the final score of this one. Washington opened up a 45-12 first half lead against California before giving up some more points in the second half. The Huskies deservedly received a first-place in the coaches poll.

Washington quarterback Michael Penix has looked as sharp as any player in the country. The Huskies are the most underrated team in the coaches poll.

Penn State Nittany Lions

Week 4: Penn State 31, Iowa 0

Where in the world is the Iowa offense? The Hawkeyes are setting football back in time with offensive displays like this. Credit the stout Penn State defense for holding Iowa to a shocking 76 total yards.

Penn State is looking like they can compete with Michigan and Ohio State this year.

Superstar quarterback Caleb Williams and the Trojans weren’t expected to be tested against an Arizona State team that lost 29-0 at home against Fresno State the previous week. Arizona State challenged USC well into the fourth quarter. Tackling remains an issue for the USC defense.
