The Pac 12 has turned into quite the wonky conference over the past few years where literally anything can happen on any given night (except for in this case). The pass-happy Huskies are absolutely going to destroy a Stanford team that has the worst secondary in the conference and who barely beat the pathetic Oregon State Beavers last week. The bookies are trying to bait bettors with a nice hook at +14.5, but it’s not enough to warrant investing your money.
A whopping 72% are wagering on the University of Central Florida Friday night at Cincinnati and the line has moved a measly half point. This should tell you something! Cinci is a LIVE DOG here! A GOOD college football team playing in a BIG game at home in a featured spot. Upset alert!
In a game most wouldn’t usually bet, all eyes will be seeking value and betting on these two turds Friday night as they’ll be the late college football game on CBSSN. One edge in play is that home field advantage and travel carry more value in NCAA football with regards to winning games and beating spreads. In this case, the Lobos were in Virginia last week and now have to travel to California. New Mexico has been outscored by 29 points per game in their two road contests this season.
Confidence in the Rams has seemingly plummeted after they lost by fifteen points as a nine point home favorite to Tampa Bay Sunday. The opening line for this TNF matchup opened with the Rams as -2 favorites and within 24 hours has moved four points to Seattle -2.
Temple rebounded nicely from their shocking 38-24 defeat to Buffalo as a -14 point spread road favorite to knock off Georgia Tech 24-2. Owls backers will have to lay double digits on the road again when they travel to East Carolina to take on the Pirates. ECU is fresh off their only victory against a FBS team this season beating lowly Old Dominion.
The Arizona Cardinals can’t stop the run and can’t stop the pass. Can Seattle rebound off a home loss to the Saints in which they seemingly did everything wrong? Loot has the cover!
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers come to the Coliseum on Sunday for a week four NFC showdown against the unbeaten Los Angeles Rams. You have to feel for Tampa, right on the precipice of going to 2-1 against the Giants before a 34-yard field goal sailed right. What will their mindset be?
The Miami Dolphins have been an absolute train wreck. They gave the Cowboys a game last week but folded like a cheap tent in the second half. The Chargers have been guilty of “playing down to their competition” in the past, but can the Phins be taken seriously after only scoring ONE touchdown this season? They’ve been outscored 133-16 this season!
The Colts are 2-1 SU and a bankroll padding 2-0-1 against the spread based on the closing number. The Raiders looked strong in their opener beating the Broncos but have dropped two straight against some fierce competition in Chiefs and Vikings. Can they back on track this week and at least stay with the number?
The USC Trojans have overcome adversity to make themselves a formidable opponent. With the Huskies losing at home to Cal earlier this season, it proves that they’re vulnerable. Sharp bettors are licking their chops to take a shot at the +10 underdog point spread here.
