Playoff semifinal preview: #2 Washington vs #3 Texas

The later matchup is a real clash of heavyweight offenses. Which team will have the advantage?

Washington and Texas have the two scariest offenses in this year’s college football playoff.

Both teams feature brilliant offensive head coaches who excel at drawing up shot plays and can make hay if they have smart offensive lines, quarterbacks who have mastered their different designs, and NFL wide receivers to get open down the field. Both teams also have all of those dynamics.

Between Rome Odunze, Adonai Mitchell, and Xavier Worthy you probably have three of the top receivers who will be taken in the 2024 NFL Draft.

If either team had drawn Michigan or Alabama in the semi-final I’d probably have chosen these two to end up in the Final against each other. Not that Texas vs Alabama/Michigan or Washington vs the same are easy matchups, but these two teams are just well built to win in the playoffs.

But they got each other, so now what?
