The college football season is five weeks old, so for too long tonight’s national title game has been overanalyzed and the Xs and Os discussed.
Who has the upper hand? Is it Auburn with college football’s most dynamic player in Cam Newton who has the best passing and running combination arguably of any QB in the history of college football. I believe so.
Newton is near impossible to stop. I compare him to a pitcher who has a 100 mph fastball and a 80 mpg hook. In Gus Malzahn’s spread offense he wants Newton to keep the ball and display his power and speed as much as possible. However, there are times when Newton when fake the run and deliver a strike to one of his talented receivers. The safeties and LBs typically bite heavy towards the run leaving Newton with a wide open target. Just like a pitcher with a 100 mph fastball (Newton running) and when you don’t expect here comes the 80 mph hook (Newton faking the run and throwing). That description fits Cameron Newton to a “T”.
The winner of tonight’s game will be the team who can get one more stop than the other team. Let’s be honest this should be a shootout. Auburn ranks 105 th nationally against the pass while Oregon have given up their share of points. However, if Oregon is going to win they must stay disciplined in their assignment and not overcommit to the run which will allow Newton to torch them in the passing game. If Oregon can do this, I believe they will have shot. If not, then the Sears trophy will head to the “Loveliest Village on the Plains”.
