College football betting: Week 2 weather report
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thunderstorms plagued Week 1 of the college football season. What does Mother Nature have in store this Saturday?
San Diego State Aztecs at Army Black Knights (+9.5, 54.5)
There’s a chance of showers at Blaik Field Saturday. The forecast calls for a 31 percent chance of rain starting in the morning and continuing throughout the game.
Central Michigan Chippewas at Kentucky Wildcats (-10.5, 47)
Thunderstorms are in the forecast in Lexington. This total opened at 46 and has moved up a point. However, a little rain could slow down the Wildcats’ weak offense..
Florida Atlantic Owls at Michigan State Spartans (-32, 50.5)
The Spartans could get rained on, with bad weather coming to East Lansing. There’s a 30 percent chance of the wet stuff and game-time temperatures are expected to be in the high 60s.
Toledo Rockets at Ohio State Buckeyes (-18, 50)
Ohio State is due for some rain Saturday, with a 33 percent chance in the forecast for Columbus. Those rain clouds could turn into thundershowers by halftime.
Alabama Crimson Tide at Penn State Nittany Lions (+10, 42)
Thundershowers could take the happy out of Happy Valley. The forecast is calling for a 40 percent chance of rain, which could drop Saturday’s already low total of 42 points.
Purdue Boilermakers at Rice Owls (+2, 51)
Temperatures in Houston are going to climb into the mid-90s, which is something Purdue doesn’t face on a daily basis. The Boilermakers got a taste of the heat last week, winning 27-24 against MTSU but failing to cover as 14.5-point faves in 90-degree weather.
TCU Horned Frogs at Air Force Falcons (+1, 49.5)
There’s a chance of thundershowers in the forecast for Falcon Stadium. Money on the Academy has this spread turning on its head, moving from TCU -2.
UAB Blazers at Florida Gators (-23.5, 53.5)
Thunderstorms and a 35 percent chance of showers could soak the Blazers and Gators in Gainesville on Saturday. Florida opened as a 21-point fave and has been bet up against UAB.
Virginia Cavaliers at Indiana Hoosiers (+7, 52.5)
Rain is in the forecast for Bloomington, with a 45 percent chance of a downpour when the Hoosiers host the Cavs. Thunderstorms could delay the start of Saturday’s game as well.
Ball State Cardinals at USF Bulls (-20, 50)
South Florida is no stranger to thunderstorms after waiting out the bad weather in a win over Notre Dame last week. The Bulls will get more of the same, with thundershowers in the forecast for Tampa.
Memphis Tigers at Arkansas State Red Wolves (-17, 55.5)
Thunderstorms will give way to rain showers at Arkansas State. The Red Wolves have moved from 13.5-point faves to -17 as of Friday afternoon.
Northern Illinois Huskies ay Kansas Jayhawks (+4.5, 62)
Thunderstorms could delay the start of this MAC vs. Big 12 battle. However, the dangerous conditions should pass by, leaving cloudy skies and a 23 percent chance of rain.
Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at MTSU Blue Raiders (+11, 56)
Thunderstorms could delay kickoff, with rainstorms rolling in later in the evening. There’s a 20 percent chance of rain at Johnny “Red” Floyd Stadium Saturday.
Navy Midshipmen at Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (+9.5, 52.5)
Another game is threatened by thunderstorms early in the evening, giving way to rain. There’s a 28 percent chance of showers at Houchen Industries L.T. Smith Stadium.
Notre Dame Fighting Irish at Michigan Wolverines (+3, 54.5)
The first night game at the Big House could be a wet one, with rain in the forecast for Ann Arbor. There’s a 40 percent chance of showers for Saturday’s big game, which could be why the total has fallen from 55.5 points.
