Best performance of the week: Ohio defeated Nebraska 55-0

Even if this wasn't the only win for the conference last week, it would have been a strong candidate for the performance of the week. Nebraska has struggled all season and the Bobcats did not hold back. Ohio QB Yusei Asencio lit up Cornhusker DBs as he went 34-45 for 607 yards, 5 TDs and 1 Int, and he had two friendly faces in WRs Jerald Paulsen and Humberto Mauger, who both had 241 yards receiving. Ohio RB Quenton Rienzo only had 27 yards rushing, but that's a moot point when your QB performs as well as Asencio did. The Bobcat defense deserves equal praise as they shut out Nebraska and held them to only 161 yards on offense. Ohio has only played two games this year but their performances are making them the team to beat in the MAC up to this point.

 

Worst performance of the week: UTSA defeated Northern Illinois 24-3

Plenty of options for worst performance this week as the conference struggled mightily against superior opponents. I decided to go with Northern Illinois, who had the opportunity to start the season 3-0 in a division where no other team is better than 1-2. Furthermore, they had that opportunity against a UTSA team that was 0-2 entering week 3. What followed? NIU put up a measly 174 yards on offense and made UTSA QB Michael Omameh, who wasn't sacked the entire game, look like an all-conference QB. NIU QB Darius Paredes was able to go 15-16 but for only 73 yards as he dumped the ball off to RB D'Angelo Martino 7 times for a sad 25 yards. The Huskies' defense wasn't able to force a turnover or pressure the QB which led to a comfortable first win of the season for UTSA. After a solid start to the year the MAC teams will go limping into the conference season.

Ridiculous from Ohio, really. What a game for them.

 

Reggie Newton is going to be a beast, huh...
