Stewart-Haas Racing driver Noah Gragson is spending his downtime during the two-week Olympic break, honing his College Football video game skills. Gragson recently shared on social media how he "cooked" Connor Zilisch.
The #10 SHR Ford driver seems to be having fun with the newly released College Football 25 video game. After dominating fellow SHR Xfinity driver Riley Herbst recently, he took on 18-year-old NASCAR prospect Zilisch.
Noah Gragson, representing Texas Tech Red Raiders, posted a clip of his game with Zilisch, who played for Oklahoma Sooners. Gragson shared a clip of scoring a touchdown, beating Zilisch's lineup with ease.
Boasting his gameplay on X (previously Twitter), Gragson poked fun at the Trackhouse Racing driver with the caption:
"Get cooked buddy @ConnorZilisch"
Watch the below clip shared by the #10 Stewart Haas Racing driver:
Before taking on Connor Zilisch, Noah Gragson handily beat fellow Stewart Haas Racing driver Riley Herbst, who was fresh off a victory at the Brickyard. The #10 Ford driver joked that "Riley Rage" would quit after the first quarter of the game.
"Just got done with the first game 'Riley Rage' quit after the first quarter 28-0," Gragson joked.
Winning two of the three games, Gragson announced his triumph over Herbst by saying:
"I just beat my son, 2-1"
Noah Gragson and his peers are enjoying some off time during the Olympic break, with NASCAR returning to action at Richmond Raceway. With four races remaining in the regular season, Gragson's playoff prospects are low as he currently sits 169 points below the cutline.
Meanwhile, Connor Zilisch, who recently turned 18, is gearing up for a busy NASCAR schedule after the summer break. He is scheduled to drive three races for Spire Motorsports in the Truck Series and is slated to run four races for JR Motorsports in the Xfinity Series.
Noah Gragson shows off his impressive Lego collection
Following in the footsteps of William Byron and Dale Earnhardt Jr., Noah Gragson has become the latest NASCAR driver to take up building Lego sets as a serious hobby.
The 26-year-old recently opened up about his new hobby, which he picked up just a month ago and has since become a "full-on addiction." Gragson showed off a wide-ranging collection of Lego sets he recently bought and built with his #10 SHR crew.
"I got into Legos like a month ago. Never thought I’d be 26 years old into Legos. Here I am, a full-on addiction, spent way too much money on these things. But I just come home from work, I sit down at the table... I'm building the Home Alone see right now," he said.
Noah Gragson is excited about building the Titanic Lego set, which includes 9,090 pieces. Dale Jr. has been assembling the same set for weeks.
"Probably the one I’m most excited for…right here. Lego Titanic - 9090 pieces. So, pretty cool detail with this.I love building my Legos, I have a lot of fun with it…Who knows, maybe next time you guys come see me, I’ll have a bigger collection." Gragson added.
