The Washington State Cougars will be the bail out game of the day for bettors who didn’t fare well in early games as they’ll be hosting the hapless UCLA Bruins in a late game at 10:30PM ET on ESPN. The line in this one opened up at -17.5 and has moved to -18.5. Chip Kelly never should have left Oregon.

Like Bama, the Clemson Tigers host in a bug meets windshield event where one has to wonder what the motivation will be to crush the lesser squad. Often times, players don’t get up for these games and the coach ends up pulling first stringers resulting in the lesser team covering. Underdogs in this spot cover almost 65% of the time.

The best time to invest is when you can buy low. The same can be said for football betting, as point spreads are based on public perception. Everybody is down on the Vols and this is a nice buy low opportunity. See Dan’s take here!

The Quack Attack have averaged twice as many points as Stanford and have allowed almost three times less points on defense. HOWEVER, Stanford has won the last three matchups. Be sure to get Loot’s take before betting this one!

We get our first match-up of top10 ranked teams when No. 3 Georgia hosts No. 7 Notre Dame in Athens Georgia on Saturday night. This contest will be just the third in their history with Dawgs taking both including the latest a 20-19 victory in 2017 with Jake Fromm behind center. The public appears to be backing the underdog Irish , but is that right way to bet this game?

Bosie State true freshman Hank Bachmeier was thrown into the fire early against Florida State and came through with shining colors. He’s averaging over 300 yards per game so he may provide a challenge to the Air Force pass defense that looked good last week against Colorado. Are the Falcons worth a bet at +8?

The home team has taken the last six and Utah bettors cashed their tickets in four of those matches. Can the Utes reverse the trend with a win and a point spread cover on Friday at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum? Get Loot’s betting opinion and prediction.

Both teams like to control the ball and the clock, but a team typically needs a strong run -game to accomplish that.

Get Horne’s analysis and tips on how to bet this game.

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.

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
