12/18/20 - Anthony Brown Jr., rSr/2022, Oregon + More +

Anthony Brown threw two touchdown passes in his unusual Oregon debut, Jamal Hill made an interception with 2:47 to play, and the Ducks won their second straight Pac-12 title with a 31-24 victory over No. 13 Southern California in the championship game Friday night. Tyler Shough also threw two touchdown passes for the Ducks (4-2), who didn't win the North Division, yet still claimed the Pac-12's New Year's Six bowl berth with their only victory in the past month.

Oregon had a 31-17 lead with less than 10 minutes to play, but Bru McCoy caught a TD pass on fourth down for the Trojans (5-1) before they got the ball back with 4:43 left. USC reached midfield in search of a fourth-quarter comeback win for the fourth time in its six-game season, but Kedon Slovis threw the first fourth-quarter interception of his career. Hill made an acrobatic play to hang on to the poorly thrown ball, and Oregon's offense ran all but 23 seconds off the clock. USC reached the Oregon 49, but the Ducks' pass rush prevented Slovis from getting off a Hail Mary. - AP College Football

12/17/20 - Dillon Gabriel, rSr/2025, Oregon + More +

2020 ALL-AMERICAN ATHLETIC CONFERENCE SECOND TEAM (COACHES): QB Dillon Gabriel, UCF,...Gabriel--a semifinalist for both the Davey O'Brien and Maxwell awards--ranks first nationally in total offense (387.9 yards per game) and passing yards per game (372.6) and stands second in TD passes (30) and passing yards (3,353). Gabriel became the first UCF quarterback to throw for 400-plus yards on consecutive Saturdays (417 vs. Georgia Tech, 408 vs. ECU) and set the UCF single-game record for passing yards with 601 vs. Memphis in 2020.

With five TD passes on back-to-back weeks vs. Memphis and Tulane, he became the first UCF quarterback to do that in 33 years. Only three FBS players in the past 15 years have had at least 400 passing yards, five passing TDs and zero interceptions in consecutive games. That list includes Gabriel (vs. Memphis and Tulane), Jared Goff at Cal in 2015 and Joe Burrow at LSU in 2019. Gabriel's midseason string of 228 straight passes without an interception came to an end vs. Cincinnati. - Central Florida Football

12/13/20 - Bo Nix, rSr/2024, Oregon + More +

Auburn has fired coach Gus Malzahn, who led the Tigers to the national championship game in his first season but could never replicate that success. Athletic director Allen Greene announced the firing on Sunday, a day after the Tigers finished the regular season with a 24-10 victory over Mississippi State. Auburn is 6-4 in a pandemic-shortened season of all Southeastern Conference opponents, losing by double digits to highly ranked teams Alabama, Georgia and Texas A&M. They were also upset by a struggling South Carolina, which wound up firing coach Will Muschamp during the season. Defensive coordinator Kevin Steele will be interim coach. Auburn will owe Malzahn a $21.45 million buyout for the remaining four years of a seven-year, $49 million deal. The school must pay half of that within 30 days. - AP College Football

12/12/20 - Bo Nix, rSr/2024, Oregon + More +

Bo Nix threw for one touchdown and ran for another to lead Auburn to a 24-10 victory over Mississippi State in its final regular season game of the year. Auburn (6-4) put only field goals on the board in each of the game's first three quarters, but Nix connected with Seth Williams early in the fourth to give the Tigers a 16-3 lead, then scrabbled 3 yards to score again on the next possession. Mississippi State (2-7) continued to struggle offensively in head coach Mike Leach's first season.

The Bulldogs managed just 240 yards of total offense and did not score their only touchdown of the game until midway through the fourth quarter. Most of the Tigers' 345 yards of offense came from the ground. Tank Bigsby rushed for 192 yards and Nix added another 24 yards. Nix was 15 of 32 for 125 yards. Anthony Schwartz and Eli Stove both caught five passes. Will Rogers was 30 of 51 for 221 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions to lead Mississippi State. Jaden Walley had a game-high 100 yards receiving. - Mississippi State/AP College Football

"Competitor" is a word that's been used a lot this season to describe Nix. It's been Malzahn's way of pointing out his efforts at the end of the South Carolina loss, where he almost brought the Tigers back from the deficit, and the final quarter of the Alabama game, where Nix managed to find the end zone after being held back all game by the No. 1 team in the country. Personally, Nix sees his contributions to the run game as one of his biggest successes this season. It's added another element to Auburn's offense, and it's developed as Nix has gained a greater understanding of how he matches up with other guys in the league. "I think this year, I've kind of found out in different ways how strong and fast I really am," Nix said. "So it's kind of the knowledge of knowing that I can keep up with these guys, and I can run with them, even though, like I said, you come into college and guys are completely different.

It's kind of me just figuring out my strengths and what I'm good at and how I can be a capable runner, and I can be successful." It's a strength that Nix would love to see himself improve even more. But he also wants to see improvement in other areas, ones that he hasn't had as much success in. His accuracy is a big focus. As a freshman, Nix completed 58 percent of his passes. This season, he's improved that by three percent, completing 61 percent of his passes. But even with the growth, there are still some plays where he wildly misfires. Generally, Nix's problem is he overthrows the ball. He's overthrown Schwartz, who's one of the fastest wide receivers in the country, by several feet, and he also sent one way about 6-foot-7 Brandon Frazier's hands. But there have been a few, like the one to Eli Stove in the game against Texas A&M, where he also just completely missed the receiver. - Birmingham News
