Geoff Schwartz’s Week 2 selections range from high-output quarterbacks to defensive plays and standout receiving. The Fox Sports analyst said he weighs what performances look like on film alongside the numbers.
Missouri quarterback Austin Simmons completed 19 of 29 passes for 292 yards and three touchdowns in a 38–21 win over Kansas, according to Fox Sports. Each figure was the second-highest of his career, and it was his first start with at least 20 pass attempts and no interceptions.
Michigan’s Underwood carried the ball 18 times for nearly 100 yards and scored a touchdown in an upset of Oklahoma. Oklahoma State quarterback Hauss Hejny Mestemaker threw for 317 yards and two touchdowns in his team’s upset of Oregon, then added a touchdown run.
Oregon defender Dillon Jackson caught Mestemaker on a 75-yard run, with the tackle preventing a touchdown, and later returned an interception nearly 100 yards. Oregon State receiver Jeremiah McClellan had eight catches for 240 yards and two touchdowns against Texas Tech, including a 75-yard reception.
