[NCAA] Week 12 – The awakening of Carson Beck

Every Sunday, the TDActu editorial team offers you an update on the NCAA championship and the players eligible for the 2025 NFL Draft.

NCAA Player of the Week 12 – Carson Beck (QB, Georgia)

Son match (contre Tennessee) : 25/40, 347 yards, 2 touchdowns, 3 courses, 32 yards, 1 touchdown

Since the start of the season, his name is often mentioned in the flops of the week. This week is the exception. It’s a question of whether it’s all or nothing with Georgia’s quarterback…

In a pivotal match for Georgia to qualify for the playoffs, Carson Beck shows off his best side. He stopped a series of 5 consecutive matches with at least 1 loss of ball, and delivered a more than convincing performance.

Well protected, better in pocket management, the Bulldogs quarterback was able to make some very nice throws. Two of these come to the same player (Oscar Delp) for 6 points. He handled Tennessee’s defense well like last season, and shows why he was named among the top 10 in our first mock draft. He even allows himself a touchdown on the run after seeing the pocket crash into him. Proof that he can also know how to improvise.

All that remains is to confirm this great performance during the last 2 matches of the regular season. In any case, he earns a lot of credit with NFL scouts in an important game to kick off the end of Georgia’s season.

Players of the Week 12 – Honorable Mentions

  • Drew Allar (QB, Penn State) : 17/19, 247 yards, 3 touchdowns
  • Travis Hunter (WR/CB, Colorado) : 5 réceptions, 60 yards, 1 touchdown, 1 interception
  • Tyler Warren (TE, Penn State) : 8 réceptions, 3 courses, 190 yards, 2 touchdowns
  • Barrett Carter (LB, Clemson): 12 tackles, 2 tackles for loss, 1 sack, 1 pass defended
  • Jahdae Barron (CB, Texas): 7 tackles, 2 tackles for loss, 1 sack, 1 pass defended, 1 interception

Quoted in last week’s Footeuil, Drew Aller played a very “lost” Purdue team (1 tackle for Frenchman Jeffrey M’Ba). Completing his first 10 passes, the Nittany Lions quarterback could create a surprise next April if he shows up.

The handymen are out. Travis Hunter and Tyler Warren carry their respective teams on their strong shoulders. In addition to making another spectacular reception, the Colorado player scores a touchdown… to the race. Not hiding his wish to win the Heisman Trophy (college MVP), Hunter gives facts of great importance.

The Penn State player also scores a touchdown in the race… 48 yards (!). A rarity for a tight end, best receiver and… runner on his team this week. The team that drafts him will have the opportunity to cook him in every way, with quality.

Clemson can thank its quarterback Cade Klubnik (more on that later). But, throughout the match, Barrett Carter was everywhere. The linebacker is the best tackler on his team, and consolidates an already high rating. A rating that continues to rise for the all-rounder defensive back from Texas Jahdae Barron. Once again, he made several impact plays. With a sack and an interception under his belt, the player is also in the statistics. His more than ample sample should guarantee him a selection in one of the first 3 rounds.

Could have been cited: Quinn Ewers (QB, Texas), Shedeur Sanders (QB, Colorado), Ashton Jeanty (RB, Boise State), Omarion Hampton (RB, North Carolina), Lander Barton (LB, Utah), Dani Dennis -Sutton (EDGE, Penn State), Xavier Watts (S, Notre Dame)

The revelation of week 12 NCAA – Elijhah Badger (WR, Florida)

His game (against LSU): 6 receptions, 131 yards, 1 touchdown

Freshman quarterback DJ Lagway and coach Bill Napier – in the hot seat – can thank him.

Elijhah Badger is man of the match offensively for Florida against LSU. The former Arizona State receiver – former university of Jayden Daniels (QB, Commanders) – scored a touchdown in the first half to open the scoring, then was not far from the double at the start of the last quarter.

For the third time this season, he surpassed the 100 receiving yards mark. With his 3rd touchdown of the season, he already equals his total from last season. This service can allow him to have a chance to show himself to NFL recruiters.

In a crop of receivers less impressive in terms of quality, Elijhah Badger presents assets that could interest NFL teams lacking depth in targets. His receiving technique is good when the ball is well thrown. He can be capable of spectacular receptions, in addition to being a threat in yards after reception.

However, he shows gaps in his first step. Its tree of plots in order to stand out is not provided enough. Improvements of which he still has 2 games to show that he has a chance of being drafted.

Week 12 Revelation – Honorable Mentions

  • Cade Klubnik (QB, Clemson) : 27/41, 10 courses, 329 yards, 3 touchdowns, 1 fumble perdu
  • Antonio Williams (WR, Clemson) : 13 réceptions, 149 yards, 2 touchdowns
  • Alfred Collins (EDGE, Texas): 7 tackles, 1 sack, 1 forced fumble
  • Sonny Styles (S, Ohio State): 6 tackles, 2 sacks, 2 passes defended
  • Shilo Sanders (S, Colorado) : 5 plaquages, 1 sack, 1 fumble forcé

The duo Cade Klunik (or Clutch Klubnik) – Antonio Williams carries Clemson. Le quarterback scored the winning touchdown on a 50 yard run. The receiver at number 0, and scored his 7th and 8th touchdowns. He even recorded his first career game with more than 100 receiving yards. These 2 players should stay for 1 more year before trying their luck for 2026.

Alfred Collins decisive. The massive defensive lineman from Texas force a fumble on an Arkansas receiver late in the game. Thus, he allows his team to breathe and win the match. A rare mobility and a determination that could open the doors to the professional world for him.

The best defender of this rich squad is perhaps in the back curtain on the Columbus side. Sonny Styles is the definition of hybrid profile. A linebacker who can sometimes play safety, he takes over from Ohio State’s usual pass rushers, recording 3 sacks in the last 2 games.

Finally, he is often in the shadow of his little brother. He is already experienced (24 years old). However, seeing him drafted in 2025 would not be surprising. Despite its limited potential, Shilo Sanders shows through certain sequences that he can be a rotation player in an NFL squad. He still has too many flaws, but his sample size may be enough for an NFL team to select him between the 4th and 7th rounds.

Auraient pu être cités : Mike Green (EDGE, Marshall), Brashard Smith (RB, SMU), Jonah Coleman (RB, Washington), Quinton Cooley (RB, Liberty), Jalen John (RB, UMass), Quali Conley (RB, Arizona), Tyler Batty (EDGE, BYU), Carson Schwesinger (LB, UCLA), Pat Bryant (WR, Illinois), Rahsul Faison (RB, Utah State), LeQuint Allen (RB, Syracuse), Khairi Manns (EDGE, James Madison)

Le flop de la semaine 12 NCAA – Will Campbell (OT, LSU), Kobe Wilson (LB, SMU)

7 sacks, that’s what the LSU offensive line conceded against the Florida defensive line.

In this offensive line, Will Campbell plays left tackle. In these 7 sacks, the NFL prospect is responsible for 2 of them. In addition to the sacks, the former protector of Jayden Daniels (QB, Commanders) still concedes a penalty for a false start. Since the start of the season, Will Campbell has always conceded at least one penalty.

Second in our first mock Draft, 4th this week, Will Campbell therefore delivers a performance unworthy of a first round of Draft. Despite some good protections on certain sequences, the left tackle has perhaps never suffered as much as this weekend.

This performance will undoubtedly highlight the lack of power he shows against lively pass rushers. Better on racing games this weekend, he still has progress to make in this area.

For the future, NFL recruiters will have to ask themselves the question of its positioning. Is he a guard or a tackle? The probable answer should arrive in September 2025.

Could have been mentioned: Emeka Egbuka (WR, Ohio State), Kyren Lacy (WR, LSU), Emery Jones Jr. (OT, LSU), Donovan Ezeiruaku (EDGE, Boston College)

Week 12 NCAA Summary

Places for the top 12 to reach the playoffs are expensive. In this game, teams may have lost big.

This is the case for BYU (6) and Tennessee (7). The Volunteers’ case is perhaps less serious since they lost against Georgia (31-17). But the case of the Cougars is perhaps more worrying. By losing at home against Kansas (17-13), BYU conceded its first defeat of the season, but remains at the top of the Big 12 conference.

A conference that covets Colorado (17). Deion Sanders’ men won in style against Utah (49-24). They still remain under threat from Arizona State and Iowa State, both winners this week, but they are on the right track.

It’s also very close in the SEC conference. Texas (3) wins with forceps against Arkansas (20-10). The other Texas team, Texas A&M (15)gets in shape against New Mexico State (38-3). Alabama (10) did the same against Mercer (52-7). The conference final could be played between these 3 teams in addition to Georgia, Tennessee and Ole Miss (11), who did not play this week. Finals that will not make LSU (22)who lost to Florida (27-16), nor Missouri (23) who lost 34-30 in the last seconds against South Carolina (21) (see later).

Oregon (1) is still undefeated. The 11th victory of the season did not come without difficulty against Wisconsin (16-13). The Ducks inch closer to the Big Ten conference finals, but remain under threat ofIndiana (5), Ohio State (2) et Penn State (4). The latter two won this weekend without difficulty against Northwestern (31-7) and Purdue respectively (49-10). Indiana did not play this week.

In the ACC conference, SMU (14) perhaps won more than one match against Boston College (38-28). The Mustangs are getting closer to the conference finals. To challenge them, they can count on Clemson (20)winner at the finish of Pittsburgh (24-20), and the Hurricanes of Miami (6) who did not play this weekend.

Finally, we already know about a conference final. She is in the AAC conference, and will oppose Army Black Knights at Tulane Green Wave. Jon Sumrall’s players (HC, Tulane) reached this final for the third time in a row by beating Navy 35-0.

Week 12 Action

South Carolina Gamecocks runner Raheim Sanders resists the entire Missouri Tigers defense. Touchdown, victory, and goodbye to the playoffs for Missouri. Still, future first-rounder and wide receiver Luther Burden III thought he had given victory to his people a minute before.

The reception of week 12

Remember his name for the 2027 Draft. This prodigy is called Cam Coleman. This class promises a lot at the receiver position, with Jeremiah Smith (Ohio State) and Ryan Williams (Alabama).
