The Houston Cougars travel to New Orleans to take on Tulane Green Wave on Thursday night. The host Green Wave are a 4-point favorite with a total line of 60. College football handicapper Loot Levinson breaks down the game and gives out his betting opinion.
The Chip Kelly era is looking like it’s going to be a failed experiment. The guy should have never left Oregon. On the flip side, the Sooners and Jalen Hurts marriage is one that’s going to end happily ever after. At first glance, 23 seems like a lot to lay, but this one has blowout written all over it.
Kentucky looked good winning their first two over Toledo and Eastern Michigan, but unfortunately lost their QB Terry Wilson in the EMU game. Sawyer Smith stepped in and was adequate completing five of nine for 76 yards and two TDs. Florida’s defense has looked good I their games against Miami and an overmatched UT Martin, but their offense in the Miami game was far from impressive. Read on to get Dan’s pick versus the betting line.
Indiana destroyed Eastern Illinois 52-0 and Ohio State pummeled Cincinnati 42-0, but one thing isn’t like the other. The Eastern Illinois Panthers are a FCS team and while they may have a successful season they just can’t compete against a Big 10 team. The Cincinnati Bearcats are a different story. They were coming off a convincing win over a decent UCLA team and were run over by the Buckeyes. So is the -15.5 points too much or is it and underlay?
The Oregon Ducks putting up 77 points vs. Nevada last week tells me all I need to know… They’ll beat up on lesser opponents and keep their foot on the pedal until the clock ticks zero. Autzen Stadium is one of college football’s toughest places to play. Bug meets windshield Saturday.
No. 20 Washington State Cougars fly down to the Gulf of Mexico and take on the Houston Cougars in what will undoubtedly be WSU’s first true test against a scrappy Houston team who has recently played well versus ranked teams over the past few years.
I don’t think we’d be going out on a limb to say that Georgia is going to win this game, but can they cover a 33.5 point spread? Last season the Red Wolves went into Alabama and got throttled 57-7. Will the Dawgs do the same? Get Keith’s thorough analysis and his suggested wager.
Week 3 college football gives us Clemson at Syracuse and the betting board lists the visitor as a massive -27.5 point spread favorite. Last season at home Clemson managed only a four-point win as a -24 home fav. Can the Orange give them a battle again? Get Jay’s prediction
This game hit the board with Badgers favored by 33.5 points, but public action has driven the spread up to -35. CMU will not win this game, but will Wisconsin play their starters for more than half if they jump out to a big lead with Michigan on deck? Let’s see how Ted is going to play this game.
The Buffalo Bulls are sneaky good. The current line of -29.5 is inflated after the Nittany Lions laid the wood to the Idaho Vandals in a 79-7 whoopin’. Don’t get caught on the wrong side of the biggest Week 2 college football sucker bet!
