The 2022 College Football season is coming to an end. Here are 5 storylines that I'll be following the closest.

5 Surprising College Football Storylines For Week 11. The second to last Saturday of the regular season is coming up.

The Rose Bowl game between USC and UCLA is on Saturday at 8 pm ET on FOX. USC is a slight 2.5-point betting favorite. The game could decide the PAC-12 playoff fate. If USC wins and beats Notre Dame next week and Oregon or Utah in the Championship Game, they will have a compelling case over any other 1-loss team.

Arch Manning is considering a college football transfer to Texas. The team is struggling under Steve Sarkisian and has lost several games this season. They lost to an average Texas Tech team and a sliding Oklahoma State team. This week they play Kansas, who beat them 31 points a season ago. Texas is favored by 9 points.

Cadillac won his first game as interim head coach at Auburn this past Saturday. He is a 5.5-point favorite at home against Western Kentucky. The Sooners are 7. 5-points favorites over Oklahoma State. They are in danger of missing out on a bowl game for the first time since 1998. They need to win this week and beat Texas Tech in the regular season finale. Brent Venables first season in Norman is going well. His team is 7-5 points favorites against Oklahoma.

The winner of Michigan-Ohio State will represent the Big Ten West in the Championship Game in Indianapolis in 2 weeks.

This Saturday's schedule includes Illinois vs. Michigan, Wisconsin vs Nebraska, Northwestern vs Purdue and Iowa vs Minnesota. If the games go according to the Vegas point spreads, Illinois will fall to 4-4, Nebraska will be 4.5-5 and Purdue will improve to 5-3.
