Saturday, Nov 19th

Navy @ UCF (-15.5)

11:00 AM

Navy games are notoriously difficult to bet and this year has shown why. The Midshipmen can contend with great competition yet lose to Delaware. The offense speeds up games (in terms of actual time passed) and wastes clock so much that possessions are wildly limited. UCF probably proved last week at Tulane that they are the top dog in the American in 2022. However, they still need to definitively prove that in the AAC Championship. Time will tell. For now, this game is really tough and probably not worth it. The play: Pass

Virginia Tech @ Liberty (-10)

NOON

Virginia Tech has a case to be made as possibly being the worst P5 team in 2022. Liberty snuck into the top 25 rankings a few weeks ago before losing to a surging UConn in East Hartford. The Flames are the significantly better team even with the loss at UConn. Only two weeks ago they defeated Arkansas on the road. Still, it is highly unusual for Liberty to be laying double digits against Virginia Tech. This would be a larger wager if the spread was below seven. The play: Liberty-10 (1 unit)

UMass @ Texas A&M (-33.5)

NOON

This game is not bettable at all. The Aggies are a complete mess this season but still have the overwhelming advantage in nearly all facets; hence the massive spread. UMass is possibly the worst FBS team this year but A&M is just too abysmal to wager on confidently right now. There are much better games this week to bet.  The play: Pass

Duke @ Pitt (-7)

NOON

Pitt has not come close to meeting preseason expectations this season. The Panthers were expected to compete for at least a premier bowl game. However, a good season never materialized. Pitt lacks a signature win and has struggled in most of their victories. Meanwhile, Duke is exceeding expectations by leaps and bounds. Mike Elko has done a phenomenal job in his first season as head coach in Durham. Pitt looked good against Virginia last week but was gifted a two score lead immediately when Virginia quarterback Brennan Armstrong threw two pick-sixes to start the game. Duke can hang with most of the ACC but will have a tough time if Pitt plays to its potential. This spread would have been closer to four scores at the start of the year. But, Pitt has not been a consistent enough team to justify laying the points here. The play: Pass

Florida @ Vanderbilt (+14)

NOON

Clark Lea has done a tremendous job in Nashville. The Commodores are slowly but surely becoming a respectable program once again. Florida has struggled in Billy Napier’s first season, but the Gators recent form is looking much better. This spread is fair and there is really no value betting here. The play: Pass

TCU @ Baylor (+3)

NOON

Baylor laid a massive egg last week. The Bears looked as if they did not even want to be playing last week at home against K-State. This week, the top Big 12 target comes to town. TCU is in the CFP top 4 and is the conference's sole shot at making the playoff. The Horned Frogs have had some close calls this season, but who hasn’t? This will be the first time TCU plays back to back road games and the home team should be up for the visitor’s best effort. Baylor has hovered around preseason expectations all season. Dave Aranda is a good defensive game planner and is a great underdog coach. Baylor could win this game outright and we should see a field storming in Waco. The play: Baylor+3 (10 units)

Illinois @ Michigan (-17.5)

NOON

Illinois is definitely at its ceiling so far under Bret Bielema. Perhaps the Illini will reach a higher level of play but that is unlikely this year. Michigan is either at its own ceiling or will explode through to set a higher standard. The Wolverines ceiling  is somewhat unascertainable for now because Michigan really has not played a strong schedule. Sure, a convincing win over Penn State helps, but until Ohio State is played, we will not truly know how good Jim Harbuagh’s team is. Michigan has been favored by double digits every game this year, save the aforementioned Penn State game. The Wolverines are a legit team and have a fair shot to make the CFP. The spread is somewhat large with a hook on the high side of seventeen, and the main worry is whether or not the team will be looking ahead to the big game in Columbus next week. Because those factors are significant, this bet is another small one on Week 11’s slate. 

Indiana @ Michigan State (-10)

NOON

Indiana and Michigan State are two of the more difficult teams on which to bet this season. Indiana is just plain bad. Michigan State’s season has been a mess with missed expectations and suspensions. Sparty could clobber Indiana but is not the kind of team to back as a favorite. The play: Pass

Wisconsin @ Nebraska (+10)

NOON

Wisconsin does not move the ball well enough to justify being a double digit favorite on the road. However, Nebraska has a terrible defense and regularly allows lots of points. The Huskers have no good wins this year and will certainly be spending the next month trying to lure a new big name coach to save the program. Still, the defense has slightly improved as the year has gone on and might be able to hold Wisconsin in check with a top effort. However, the Huskers are too much of a mess to back. The play: Pass

UConn @ Army (-10)

NOON

UConn has improved so much this season that it is very difficult to gauge when they will reach their ceiling. This is the last game of the season for the Huskies. Army has had one of its worst seasons in years under Jeff Monken. The Black Knights have only one win over an FBS foe and the offense is not nearly as efficient as usual. Therefore, this game is not bettable. The play: Pass

Louisiana @ Florida State (-24)

NOON

Louisiana is having a decent season but is still performing below the level of the last several seasons under now FLorida Gators coach Billy Napier. Coach Desormauex is doing a good job in his first year and it will likely take another season or two to approach those previous highs. Florida State is playing the best football since Mike Norvell became the coach a few seasons back. The Noles crushed the last three opponents but have not beaten a legitimate opponent since a road win against Louisville, or perhaps, the notable Labor Day Weekend win over LSU in New Orleans. This is a big game for the Ragin’ Cajuns and not for FSU. The spread is a touch too high and taking the points is worth a small bet. The play: Louisiana+24 (1 unit)

Northwestern @ Purdue (-18.5)

NOON

Northwestern has not won a game since Week 0 in Ireland and their offense is abysmal. This might be the worst team Pat Fitzgerald has had in some time, or possibly ever. The Wildcats somehow cobbled together a good enough effort to easily cover against Ohio State two weeks ago, but the Buckeyes were likely simply taking Northwestern for granted. Still, Fitzgerald is a great coach and should get some effort from his squad. Purdue is having a good season but plays lots of close games. Aidan O’Connell is an above average passer and can easily put up 350+ yards against a defense of Northwestern’s level. Jeff Brohm is a good coach and surely wants to put his Boilermakers in the best bowl game possible. The spread is too big though, and Northwestern is awful when in possession. Therefore, this game is a pass. The play: Pass

UTSA @ Rice (+13.5)

1:00 PM

UTSA is headed towards its second straight C-USA title game appearance. The Roadrunners have been terrific and are undefeated in conference play. Jeff Traylor gets his team to perform quite consistently and have played right to preseason expectations even with the loss of a few key players from last season. Their opponent, the Rice Owls, have improved quite a bit this season. Mike Bloomgren has done a great job with the talent he has. The Owls are the bet here. They are home and have played well enough this year to warrant a wager here. Yes, Rice got blown out a week ago to Western Kentucky. Still, this spread is too large. The play: Rice+13.5 (1 unit)

Kansas State @ West Virginia (+7.5)

2:00 PM

West Virginia would be a gift at the current spread if JT Daniels was not possibly benched in favor of the less experienced Garrett Greene. Yes, Greene led the Mountaineers to a nice comeback win against Oklahoma last week. But short samples do not typically make for reliable betting. For that reason alone, West Virginia can only be bet small if at all. Remember, Kansas State is on fire lately and Deuce Vaughn looked fantastic last week against a Baylor defense that is much better than the one in Morgantown. The play: Pass 

Washington State @ Arizona (+4)

2:00 PM

Jedd Fisch has done a tremendous job in Tucson. The Wildcats are able to score and win games. Arizona is out of the conversation for worst P5 team in only a few short seasons. Washington State is having a solid season featuring several notable unexpected wins. Cameron Ward is a decent quarterback who has not really improved on his strong raw talent. This spread is just a tad too high and Arizona has every right to win this home game. The play: Arizona+4 (1 unit)

Houston @ East Carolina (-6)

2:00 PM

The spread would have been the exact opposite at the beginning of the season. Mike Houston has had perhaps his best season at ECU. The Pirates possess some really solid wins and have been close against good competition. Meanwhile, Houston was thought to be a New Year’s 6 possibility before the season. That did not materialize in the slightest. Houston has regressed throughout the season and failed to come even close to expectations. Having said that, ECU is not the best favorite to back confidently. However, the Pirates are a good team who should fare well at home. The play: ECU-6 (1 unit)

Georgia State @ James Madison (-9)

2:00 PM

This spread is fair. No value. The play: Pass

Oregon State @ Arizona State (+8)

2:15 PM

Oregon State is having a good year and has some of the hallmarks of a team that makes for a consistent good bet throughout the season. The Beavers have experience, can run the ball really well, and play good enough defense to hang with most teams in the country. Meanwhile, Arizona State is somewhat of a mess. Besides a surprising upset of Washington in early October, the Sun Devils have no good wins. The Beavers should control the line of scrimmage here, and ASU will need its best effort to win. However, the spread is about right and Oregon State is not the best team to bet as a road favorite, even against inferior competition. The play: Pass

Boston College @ Notre Dame (-20.5)

2:30 PM

Boston College pulled off a shocking upset last week at NC State. The Eagles have unperformed all year and then defeated a much better Wolf Pack squad. Granted, both teams were without their starting quarterbacks. Still, NC State is much more talented than BC and the upset was surprising to say the least. Notre Dame has performed better since its early season struggles but did let up a large lead last week at Navy. The spread is big but the Irish are much better than BC. Defensive prowess is Notre Dame’s calling card and at their best can shut out the Eagles. The spread dictates a wager on the favorite, but the respective forms of the participants and the circumstances warrant only a small bet. The play: ND-20.5 (1 unit)

Old Dominion @ Appalachian State (-16)

2:30 PM

This spread is fair. Appalachian is not having quite the season it usually has but it is a decent year featuring a win over a P5 opponent nevertheless. Old Dominion has not played great except in a few spots when it was a bit of a surprise. The Monarch offense has been pitiful while the defense is respectable. Ricky Rahne will miss a bowl and the hot seat might start to warm up next year if not sooner. Regardless, this spread is fairly accurate and laying this many points on a less than elite favorite is a tough ask when the underdog is not among the worst teams in FBS. The play: Pass 

Akron @ Buffalo PPD (SNOW)

3:30 PM

Ohio State @ Maryland (+27.5)

3:30 PM

Ohio State is obviously the favorite to win the Big Ten and make the CFP. A home game against Michigan is the only realistic shot the Buckeyes have of not going unbeaten before then. All other games are purely serving as scrimmages. None of Ohio State’s wins has been by fewer than eleven points and that was the opener against Notre Dame. An improved defense under the guidance of the outstanding Jim Knowles is almost entirely responsible for putting Ohio State back atop the Big Ten. Maryland is having a respectable season and did not suffer a losing streak until currently. The Terps were shut out by a formidable Penn State opponent last week and fell by thirteen at Wisconsin the previous week. Maryland still has a good passer and have not lost a game they were not expected to lose. No, Maryland will not defeat Ohio State. But, they can keep it under four scores. This would possibly be a sizable bet if the spread was 28. However, it is just under that, so only a small bet is warranted. Besides, Ohio State is one of the top two teams in the country and is liable to go big in any given week. The play: Maryland+27.5 (1 unit)

Louisiana Tech @ Charlotte (+2.5)

3:30 PM

This spread is spot on. There is no value and these two teams are too unreliable to bet. The play: Pass

Florida Atlantic @ Middle Tennessee (+6)

3:30 PM

Middle Tennessee’s quarterback is listed as questionable as of writing. The Blue Raiders would be the play if he plays. For now, it is a pass. The play: Pass

Louisiana - Monroe @ Troy (-15)

3:30 PM

This spread is spot on. The play: Pass

South Alabama @ Southern Miss (+7.5)

3:30 PM

South Alabama is having a great season by its standards. Kane Wommack has done a good job and the Jaguars will play in a decent bowl game. The defense is really solid and the offense is reliable enough to score adequate points against almost any opponent. Southern Miss has had a bit of a roller coaster season. The Golden Eagles have dropped the last two but nearly beat Coastal Carolina, who was without Grayson McCall, last week. Plus-7.5 seems a bit high for this game. Maybe Southern Miss will not handle Wommack’s defense, but Will Hall is a good enough coach to craft a creative plan to be in this one until the end. South Alabama is a good team, but they are not running roughshod over the Sun Belt just yet. The play: Southern Miss+7.5 (10 units)

Penn State @ Rutgers (+19)

3:30 PM

Penn State is playing really well and their only losses are to the two best Big Ten teams that both have realistic chances at making the CFP. Meanwhile, Rutgers is mired in the bottom of the Big Ten East standings and has made little progress from its early days in the conference. This spread is spot on and will basically come down to whether James Franklin wants his team to win by 20 or more. The play: Pass

NC State @ Louisville (-4)

3:30 PM

NC State’s season has utterly derailed without quarterback Devin Leary. The Wolf Pack were already missing expectations when the experienced passer went out with injury, but NC State’s performance has only gotten worse each passing week without him. A straight up loss to lowly Boston College last week was shocking. Meanwhile, Louisville will be without its own star; quarterback Malik Cunningham is injured and his status is not certain as of writing. Two unreliable teams playing without their quarterbacks sets up for a wild unpredictable affair. The play: Pass

 

Miami @ Clemson (-19)

3:30 PM

Miami games are really tough to bet unless your are convinced to fade them. Otherwise, it is probably best to stay away because the lines are inflated due to Miami’s poor performances this year. The Hurricanes surely still have some legitimate talent, but the team is a mess in Mario Cristobal’s first season at his alma mater. It is going to take some time before Miami is back as they now say. Meanwhile, Clemson has hopes of reaching the CFP and will need to win big every chance they get. Otherwise, the Tigers might be left out of college football’s final four. Miami is almost definitely near its floor if it is not already there.Likewise, Clemson is not near its own typical power rating which is likely due to poor quarterback play. The alarming rate at which the Tigers turn the ball over makes them difficult to back at a larger spread against a team that has shown even the slightest competence. This could be a massive blowout. But, that is not certain. The play: Pass

Texas @ Kansas (+9)

3:30 PM

Texas travels to Lawrence for a rematch of what may have been last season’s most shocking upset. This time around, nobody will be shocked if the Jayhawks defeat the Longhorns. Kansas is having a great year by their standards. Coach Lance Leipold has transformed the once pathetic offense into a legitimate threat to score 40 almost every week. However, four of the last five games have not gone in the Jayhawks favor. But, bowl eligibility has been secured. A win over Texas would possibly mean more than a win over in-state rival K-State the next week. Plus, Texas has a tough path to reach the Big 12 Championship game. Texas should win this game nevertheless. The line has not moved since opening and plus-nine is a tough number highly susceptible to a backdoor cover. But, Kansas is home and has the coaching edge. The home team is worth the smallest of bets. Waiting for plus-10 might be prudent. The play: Kansas+9 (1 unit)

Coastal Carolina @ Virginia (Canceled) 

3:30 PM

Georgia @ Kentucky (+22.5)

3:30 PM

Georgia is on path to another CFP appearance. The Bulldogs are the top team in the country right now despite having a defense not as good as last years. Expectations remain as high as anywhere and dominant wins have become the norm. Kentucky has failed to meet its own lofty expectations this season, but a nice bowl appearance is still highly possible. The Wildcats style of play lends itself to favor betting on them when getting points. 22.5 is a ton of points to be getting at home for a relatively competent team and coach. Expect the Wildcats game plan to be slow and limit the number of plays in the game. Small sample sizes almost always favor underdogs. Still, Georgia is elite and a legitimate threat to pitch a shutout almost any given week. Plus, Kentucky is just a bit worse than preseason expectations thought they would be. Therefore, only a small bet is warranted. The play: Kentucky+22.5 (1 unit)

Western Kentucky @ Auburn (-5.5)

4:00 PM

This spread is fair and there is little value. Would not be surprising to see the Hilltoppers pull off the upset on the Plains. The play: Pass

Iowa @ Minnesota (-2.5)

4:00 PM

Minnesota is having a good season despite the injuries it has suffered throughout the season. As of writing, quarterback Tanner Morgan’s status is unknown for this week’s game against Iowa. Minnesota’s legitimate rushing attack could struggle without its starting passer against the stout Iowa defense. This is a tough game to figure out. The Hawkeye offense is nonexistent at times but their defense is fantastic. Minnesota has not defeated a team of Iowa’s level or higher. Yet, the Golden Gophers are short home favorites. The Iowa defense is so good that laying points against it requires blind faith that the favorite will give up ten or under. That is certainly possible for a team like Minnesota. The play: Minnesota-2.5 (1 unit)

Cincinnati @ Temple (+17)

4:00 PM

Cincinnati has every right to obliterate a team of Temple’s level. However, Temple has actually played decently lately. The Owls have moved the ball and been able to get it across the goal line. Still, the Bearcats are far and away better. Ben Bryant is not the best passer and the roster is nowhere close to as talented as last year. Cincinnati has had a good win-loss record but scoring has been lower and results much closer. Therefore, this game is best left alone. The play: Pass

Florida International @ UTEP (-14)

4:00 PM

FIU is one of the two worst FBS teams this year. UTEP has not been good enough to warrant laying two scores to practically any opponent. Therefore, this game is a pass. The play: Pass

Arkansas State @ Texas State (-6)

5:00 PM

Neither of these teams are very good but both have performed respectably in several games. The strength of Arkansas State and Texas State are relatively equal to the point where a bet on the underdog no matter who it is is probably the bet to make here. However, neither is good enough to bet it confidently. The play: Arkansas State+6 (1 unit)

Stanford @ California (-4.5)

5:30 PM

This spread is spot on and neither of these teams have provided good wagering opportunities consistently this season. The play: Pass

Georgia Tech @ North Carolina (-21)

5:30 PM

This spread is fair. North Carolina is headed to the ACC Championship game no matter what it does in its remaining games. Georgia Tech is on its third string quarterback and an interim coach. Motivation might play a massive factor here. UNC still has a tiny shot at reaching the CFP is a lot goes its way. Still, the Tar Heels are probably one of the worst 9-1 teams in history. Therefore, abstaining from a wager is the prudent move. The play: Pass

Marshall @ Georgia Southern (+4.5)

6:00 PM

Marshall has no bad losses in conference play. Georgia Southern has been acceptable this year and has several solid wins of their own. The Eagles have improved more than a touchdown over the season and the offense can be electric at times. Marshall has a few puzzling outings but is solid nevertheless. The spread is a bit too high and their is some value on Georgia Southern. The play: Georgia Southern+4.5 (1 unit)

Tennessee @ South Carolina (+22.5)

7:00 PM

The Gamecocks could easily cover when getting more than three scores at home. However, Tennessee is eying a playoff spot and South Carolina has been nothing but disappointing the last few weeks. The play: Pass

Texas Tech @ Iowa State (-3.5)

7:00 PM

This spread is dead on and offers no value. Unless you have a really strong feeling about Texas Tech being able to win the game outright this game is a pass. The play: Pass

Boise State @ Wyoming (+14)

7:00 PM

Wyoming is really stout at home and coach Craig Bohl knows how to make a game plan focused on making a mess of a game. The Cowboys still have an outside shot at the MWC championship with a win here. However, Wyoming’s offense has not been spectacular to say the least. Boise has improved drastically since Hank Bachmeier entered the portal early in the year. Andy Avalos has gotten the Broncos almost back to their typical level but they are still a bit short of that number. Boise has played well lately and the defense is pretty good, and the line movement favored Boise, so tread lightly. The play: Wyoming+14 (1 unit)

New Mexico State @ Missouri (-29)

7:30 PM

Much like the UMass @ Texas A&M games, this game is really tough to justify betting. Mizzou is playing about to its normal level under Eli Drinkwitz and the defense has greatly improved this season. The Tigers were blown out on Rocky Top last week but this is completely excusable given the explosiveness of the Vols’ offense. New Mexico State is one of the worst teams in FBS but has improved slightly this year. Expect Missouri to run up the score quickly and leave covering to the backups. However, this would have been worth a small bet at the opening number of minus-27. But laying over four scores in a game where motivation is rather unpredictable is not the best. The play: Pass

Ole Miss @ Arkansas (+2.5)

7:30 PM

This spread is fair and there are several uncertainties making this game difficult to predict. Arkansas was a solid underdog at plus-3, but the spread is not less than a field goal. Ole Miss will be disappointed after last week’s close home loss to Alabama. Meanwhile, Arkansas’s quarterback situation makes it tough to back that offense. The play: Pass

Oklahoma State @ Oklahoma (-7)

7:30 PM

This is the latest Oklahoma has needed a win to secure bowl eligibility in quite some time. The Sooners have dropped two straight and five of seven. Suffice it to say, Brent Venables is not having the best inaugural season. Meanwhile, Oklahoma State was on a short list of Big 12 CFP contenders until a blown lead at TCU and a massive shutout loss two weeks later against Kansas State. The Pokes are hovering around their typical low water mark and the Sooners might still be finding theirs. Usually, Oklahoma is a better program than OK State. But, Mike Gundy is most likely a much better head coach than Brent Venables, at least for now. OU is the play but only because at their best they would beat OK State. The Sooners are nowhere near their best, so only a small bet is advisable. The play: OU-7 (1 unit)

USC @ UCLA (+2.5)

8:00 PM

UCLA was clearly looking ahead to this week during its home loss to Arizona last week. The Bruins overlooked the improved Wildcats. Now, any shot at the playoff is off the table for UCLA and the PAC-12’s only hope is UCLA’s opponent this week, USC. The Trojans have one of the best scoring offenses in the country as Lincoln Riley has successfully transplanted his system in LA. USC has played consistently this season, but their defense is less than stellar. My ratings have USC favored here by over a score. Maybe I am too low on UCLA, but the Trojans are the better program. Even with the stars of the UCLA backfield, USC has their own stars who are probably even better. However, the loss of running back Travis Dye hurts a ton. That is likely the cause of the depressed spread. The money seems to be coming on the home team os fire away early if you like UCLA. Wait and see if you like USC. You might get them at a steal. The play: USC-2.5, but wait (1 unit)

Syracuse @ Wake Forest (-10)

8:00 PM

Wake Forest was riding high on the surprising return of star quarterback Sam Hartman. The Demon Deacons were nearly headed for a CFP potential season when they nearly defeated Clemson at home in overtime. However, Wake Forest lost that game in the second OT frame. Still, one close loss to a habitual playoff participant was no reason to give up on the season. An ensuing three game win streak had Wake climbing the rankings and hoping for a NY6 bowl and a tiny shot at the ACC championship. Then one terrible quarter in which Wake Forest committed more turnovers than in the rest of the season combined began a three game losing streak. Since that quarter against Louisville, Wake Forest has not taken care of the football and has lost all three games it has played. This week’s opponent, Syracuse, has faced a similar arc this year. The Orange were climbing the rankings and even had a chance to defeat Clemson on the road until blowing a fourth quarter lead. An injury to Garett Shrader should not have doomed Syracuse to certain losses because star running back Sean Tucker could surely carry the load. Unfortunately, opposing defenses realized this obvious circumstance and simply loaded the box and dared Syracuse to throw the ball. Syracuse has not won a game since before the Clemson loss. Shrader was used a little bit in last week's blowout loss at home against Florida State. However, Shrader said this week he feels significantly better and could play a role this week. However, the spread is fair and neither team can really be relied on at this point. The Orange are good enough to keep it close but a blowout loss to a Wake team out for blood would not be surprising. Take a chance on Cuse but keep expectations low. The play: Cuse+10 (1 unit)

UAB @ LSU (-15)

9:00 PM

This is a tough spread that has not budged all week. Motivation is often tough to handicap in these types of games. LSU at its best has every right to clobber UAB. UAB at its best against LSU at its worst has every right to keep this close enough to make the fans in Baton Rouge sweat. Therefore, this game is a pass as either of the above are completely possible. The play: Pass

Colorado @ Washington (-31)

9:00 PM

Colorado is probably the worst P5 team in 2022. The Buffaloes have scored more than 20 points just once and have allowed more than 40 in all but two of their contests. The administration in Boulder will need to find a miracle worker and likely put up a hefty sum in a contract with loads of coach-friendly terms to secure one. For now, Colorado is not a team that can be wagered unless getting an eye-popping amount of points. Washington is coming off a massive win at Oregon and may be approaching their season for having a first year coach. A let down spot is upon the Huskies and no one would fault them for being less than focused after the road upset and with the Apple Cup on deck. Therefore, this game is a pass. The play: Pass

Colorado State @ Air Force (-21.5)

9:00 PM

Brutal hook on the high side of 21. Air Force could cover against CSU easily if up for it. However, laying this many points on an in-state rivalry game involving an option team is not the most prudent of plays. Still, would consider backing the favorite if the hook was lacking. The play: Pass

San Jose State @ Utah State (-1.5)

9:45 PM

The line movement on this game suggests an injury or other inconvenient circumstance for the superior visitors. The play: Pass

Fresno State @ Nevada (+22.5)

10:30 PM

No value here. The play: Pass

Utah @ Oregon (+2.5)

10:30 PM

The line movement has been volatile here. Oregon opened minus-2.5, but has been faded to underdog status of the same number. Oregon is a very good football team that lost its own chance at the CFP last week at home in a loss to Washington. Utah has been consistent throughout the year with a last second loss at Florida and a convincing loss in Pasadena. Kyle Whittingham is a very good coach and the Utes are stout up front on both sides of the ball as usual. Still, Oregon should probably be favored here, albeit very slightly. This game could come down to one possession, or even one play, and should not be bet on too heavily. The play: Oregon+2.5 (1 unit)

UNLV @ Hawaii (+11)

11:00 PM

This spread is spot on. The play: Pass
