Conference Championship Week: Heavyweight Battles in the Pac-12 and SEC
The stage was set. Two colossal matchups. Four powerhouses fighting for conference glory.
The Pac-12 and SEC Championships delivered unforgettable moments, explosive performances, and intense competition as we gear up for the College Football Playoffs. Let’s break it all down!
Final Score: Utah 41 - Penn State 58
The Penn State Nittany Lions proved their dominance, delivering a physical and methodical performance to wear down the Utah Utes. Coach Deshaun Flowers had his team dialed in from the jump, completely neutralizing Utah’s famed rushing attack, holding them under 200 yards for the first time all season.
Game-Changing Performances:
Penn State QB (JR) #15 Drew Allar: The junior quarterback was a maestro on the field, throwing for 469 yardsand 5 touchdowns, controlling the pace of the game and putting on a clinic.
Penn State HB (JR) #13: Dominating on the ground, he racked up 116 rushing yards on 23 carries, averaging 5.0 yards per rush with 2 TDs and 8 broken tackles.
Utah HB (SO) #23 Djion Stanley: Despite the loss, Stanley dazzled with explosive plays, totaling 107 receiving yards on just 2 catches (53.5 avg), including a 95-yard touchdown. He also electrified on special teams with 318 kickoff return yards and 2 TDs, one of which was a stunning 104-yard return.
Utah LOLB (SR) #21 Karene Reid: Defensively, Reid was everywhere with 11 tackles and an interception.
Penn State’s front seven was too physical, and Drew Allar’s steady leadership sealed the deal. The Lions remain unbeaten at 13-0 and head into the playoffs with momentum.
Final Score: Georgia 34 - Alabama 46
The Crimson Tide continue to roll. Alabama jumped out to a massive lead in the first half, fueled by big plays and relentless pressure. Georgia, led by Coach R. Pico, found their stride in the second half and clawed back, but it was too little, too late.
Game-Changing Performances:
Alabama QB (JR RS) #1 Jalen Milroe: Milroe came out blazing, throwing for 356 yards and 5 touchdowns on 22 completions (41 attempts, 53% completion rate). He controlled the air attack early and often.
Alabama WR (FR) #2 Ryan Williams: The freshman phenom made his mark with 124 receiving yards on 12 catches, averaging 24.8 yards per reception and securing 1 TD with a long of 52 yards.
Alabama’s ability to capitalize on turnovers early built a cushion Georgia couldn’t overcome, but the Bulldogs showed their grit in the second half. Still, Coach N. Saben and the Tide are on to the next one—their eyes firmly locked on a National Championship.
