Chevan Cordeiro QB vs. Taylen Green QB
Chevan Cordeiro of the San José State Spartans has been trying to find consistency this season. With 102 completions out of 168 passing attempts, Cordeiro has managed to throw for 1022 yards. However, his performance metrics highlight a challenge, especially with 9 sacks leading to a loss of 78 yards. Strengths for Cordeiro include his decision-making abilities, with a reasonably low interception count. But under pressure, he tends to lose significant yardage, which could be pivotal in this game.
Taylen Green of the Boise State Broncos, meanwhile, has completed 70 of his 133 passing attempts, racking up 938 yards in the process. While his completion percentage stands at 52.6%, his resilience in the pocket is commendable, with only 4 sacks leading to a loss of 28 yards. Green’s style of play is a bit riskier, reflected in his interception count. His decision-making will be under scrutiny, especially when facing the Spartans’ defense.
