Osborne has struggled with turnovers; W&M’s defense thrives on pressure and ranks among the least penalized units nationally.
RB Kendrick Baldwin (CSU) vs. W&M Front Seven
Baldwin is CSU’s most consistent offensive weapon; W&M linebackers led by Banbury will look to shut him down.
WR Deven Thompson (W&M) vs. CSU Corners
Thompson’s big-play ability (21.5 yards per catch) makes him a constant deep threat.
LB Luke Banbury (W&M) vs. CSU QB/RB Duo
Banbury’s tackling and pass breakups (leads FCS in PBUs) could swing momentum.
