No. 21 USC vs. No. 17 Washington: Top 2020 NFL Draft prospects to watch

Breaking down the top 2020 NFL Draft prospects to watch in this marquee Pac 12 matchup between No. 21 USC and No. 17 Washington.

There will be an abundance of NFL Draft talent on display on Saturday when No. 21 USC travels to take on No. 17 Washington. These two teams have both had a strong, but not perfect, start to the season and are serious competitors to win the Pac 12. However, with both of these teams having one loss on their resume, this will be an important matchup for both sides as they look to keep pace.

Led by quarterback Jacob Eason, Washington comes into this game as obvious favorites. Eason leads an explosive offensive attack that has put up 40.8 points per game through their first four contests. However, do not sleep on their defense, which has only allowed 18.3 points per game.

Fresh off his impressive performance in the Trojans’ victory over Utah last week, Junior quarterback Matt Fink will lead the USC offense on Saturday. Fink showed some impressive playmaking ability last week and undoubtedly has an impressive group of receivers to work with. It is going to be interesting to see whether Fink and company can continue to have success against Washington.

This should be a fun and high-scoring game between two talented teams. However, here at NFL Mocks, we care more about the NFL Draft talent in this game.
