College football odds: Week 5 opening line report

Things in the SEC heat up another notch in Week 5 of the college football schedule as the LSU Tigers travel to Athens, Georgia to face the Bulldogs.

LSU (4-0 SU, 2-2 ATS) is coming off a 35-21 victory over Auburn in which QB Zach Mettenberger continued his excellent play.

The big senior is now 59-of-91 for 1,026 yards with 10 TDs and 1 pick on the season.

Georgia (2-1 SU, 1-2 ATS) defeated North Texas 45-21 Saturday and has an SEC victory under its belt already having defeated South Carolina 41-30 in Week 2.

Peter Korner, founder of the Nevada-based odds service The Sports Club, and his team were all relatively close when discussing where to open this battle of SEC heavyweights.

"We were all pretty solid on this one. We were all from -2 to -4 so I stuck it at -3," Korner told Covers. "These teams are as even as they can be. You have to really look at that home field advantage here and I don't really think this will go too far off the number."

Oklahoma Sooners at Notre Dame Fighting Irish (+2.5)

The Sooners (3-0 SU, 2-1 ATS) have had a pair of cake walks and a tough victory versus West Virginia in Week 2. They'll be coming off a bye week and heading to Indiana to face Notre Dame.

After a loss to Michigan in Week 2, The Irish (3-1 SU, 0-3-1 ATS) have put together back-to-back wins over Purdue and Michigan State.

Korner and his team were all on the Sooners for this intriguing matchup.

"We were all on Oklahoma with a low of one and a high of five," Korner said. "Even though Oklahoma is favored, Notre Dame has a great chance in this one. We should see some good two-way action on this game right around that field goal."

Wisconsin Badgers at Ohio State Buckeyes (-7.5)

Wisconsin (3-1 SU, 4-0 ATS) is one of just five schools left with a 4-0 ATS record (Marlyand, UTSA, Washington State, Wyoming).

The running game has gotten it done for the Badgers as they are third in the country averaging 349.8 rushing yards per game.

The Buckeyes (4-0 SU, 3-1 ATS) posted a 76-0 victory over Florida A&M in their last game despite missing the services of QB Braxton Miller.

Backup Kenny Guiton set a school record with six TD tosses in the rout over the Rattlers.

"We had Ohio State favored higher but I actually took the lowest number of all five of us," Korner explained. "I think Wisconsin is a live dog here. They play really well during the regular season and they've got a good following."

Mississippi Rebels at Alabama Crimson Tide (-18)

Ole Miss (3-0 SU, 2-1 ATS) is off to a great start and will head to Alabama after a bye week. Prior to the week off, the Rebels torched Texas 44-23 in Austin.

Nick Saban and the Tide (3-0 SU, 1-2 ATS) are still the top-ranked team in the country but are coming off a modest 31-6 victory over Colorado State; a team which they probably should have had an easier time with.

Despite the high opening line, Korner feels the Rebels will be tough.

"I think Mississippi is good and they'll get some play at that number," Korner said. "I wanted to be high on this but not totally high because I think Mississippi can play with these guys. Alabama hasn't really blown out those couple of teams that we thought they were going to."

Opinions from Korner and his team varied for this matchup.

"We had a low of 15 and a high of 23. I really wanted to put it in the 20s but I put it at Alabama -18."

Beyond the BCS: Capping college football's small conferences

Some of the best betting value in college football is hiding beyond the BCS, in the small conferences. Each week, Covers Experts’ Doc’s Sports will look at the little programs that could help you make big cash this college season.

Team to watch: Bowling Green Falcons (3-1 SU, 3-1 ATS)

This week: -14.5 vs. Akron

Bowling Green has won four in a row against Akron, including a 24-10 road victory last season. The Falcons are also 5-0 ATS in their last five against the Zips. Akron may be hard-pressed to contain Bowling Green’s offense and turn the tide of the head-to-head series.

The Falcons are averaging 510.2 total yards through four games and they went off for 576 in its first Mid-American Conference contest (a 41-22 thrashing of Kent State). Matt Johnson is throwing for 250 yards per game and Travis Greene is averaging 5.5 yards per carry.

The Falcons are 7-1 ATS in their last eight conference showdowns and 5-0 ATS in their last five against teams with losing records (Akron is 1-3). They are 10-3 ATS in their last 13 overall and 6-2 ATS in their last eight home games.

Team to beware: Central Michigan Chippewas (1-3 SU, 0-4 ATS)

This week: +23.5 at North Carolina State

Central Michigan travels to N.C. State Saturday and its first foray into BCS competition this season did not end well. The Chippewas paid a visit to the Big House and trailed Michigan 56-6 after three quarters before losing 59-9. They are allowing 193.5 rushing yards per game (Michigan went for 242), which is bad news because the N.C. State offense is racking up 196.7 ground yards per contest.

Recent trends also do not favor Central Michigan. The team is 3-12 ATS in its last 15 road games, 2-9 ATS in its last 11 out of conference, 0-4 ATS in its last four against the ACC, and 2-10 ATS in its last 12 against opponents with winning records (the Wolfpack are 2-1 following a 26-14 loss to Clemson).

Total team: Utah State Aggies (2-2 SU, 3-1 O/U)

This week: 61 at San Jose State

Utah State’s defense has been stingy this season, especially since an opening loss to Utah. The Aggies held Air Force to 20 points in a blowout win, crushed Weber State 70-6, and they just barely lost 17-14 on the road at Southern Cal last week.

Weber State passed for a mere 34 yards on 20 attempts and USC managed just 164 through the air. Friday opponent San Jose State may have to try its hand on the ground, but the team is averaging only 74.7 rushing yards per game.

The under is 4-0 in Utah State’s last four Friday dates and 6-0 in its last six against teams with losing records (San Jose State is 1-2). It is a solid 13-6 in the team’s last 19 overall.

Hokies lost last three ACC home games by 14-21-18 points, allowing 38.7 ppg; since '09 thery're 0-3 as road dogs- they struggled to beat pair of C-USA teams last two weeks, beating Marshall in rain last week. Jackets had 688 rushing yards in pair of ACC wins, by 24-8 points over Duke/North Carolina.

Iowa State/Tulsa split pair of games LY, with Tulsa winning 31-17 in Liberty Bowl (even) after losing 38-23 (-2) in season opener up in Ames.

Virginia Tech at Georgia Tech: What bettors need to know
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Virginia Tech Hokies at Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (-7, 42)

Georgia Tech seeks to continue its strong start in the ACC while visiting Virginia Tech strives to continue its recent success against the Yellow Jackets when the squads meet Thursday night. Georgia Tech has won its first two ACC games for just the third time in 15 years and can place a firm grasp on the Coastal Division lead with a win over the Hokies, their biggest division threat. Virginia Tech has won three straight and five of the last six meetings.

The Yellow Jackets defeated North Carolina 28-20 last week and have won six consecutive ACC regular-season games, one shy of the school mark set from 2009-10. Virginia Tech has won three consecutive games since losing to Alabama in its opener, but had to go into triple-overtime before outlasting Marshall 29-21 last week. The Hokies beat Georgia Tech last season 20-17 in overtime.

TV: 7:30 p.m. ET, ESPN.

LINE: Georgia Tech opened at -7.5 and has moved to a touchdown favorite. The total opened at 41.5 and has moved up to 42.5.

WEATHER: Temperatures in the high 60s with partly cloudy skies and winds blowing ENE at 5 mph.

ABOUT VIRGINIA TECH (3-1, 0-0 ACC, 0-3-1 ATS): Senior quarterback Logan Thomas is off to a poor start, completing 48.5 percent of his passes and being intercepted six times while throwing four touchdown passes. Thomas has rushed for 22 career touchdowns - one off the school mark for quarterbacks set by Tyrod Taylor (2007-10) - while redshirt freshman Trey Edmunds (who rushed for 132 yards against Alabama in his first collegiate game) has a team-best 352 rushing yards. Senior defensive end J.R. Collins has a team-best 4.5 sacks, senior middle linebacker Jack Tyler has a team-high 33 tackles while freshman cornerback Brandon Facyson (three) and junior safety Detrick Bonner (two) have combined for five of the Hokies’ nine interceptions for a defense that ranks fifth nationally (233.3 yards per game).

ABOUT GEORGIA TECH (3-0, 2-0 ACC, 3-0-0 ATS): The Yellow Jackets are racking up 345.3 yards per game on the ground (fourth nationally) and have rushed for at least 324 in each game. Senior David Sims (211 yards) has yet to be tackled for a loss on 38 rushes, sophomore quarterback Vad Lee (seven passing touchdowns) has 180 rushing yards and three touchdowns, and senior Robert Godhigh (174 yards) is averaging 12.4 yards per rush and also has five receptions for 83 yards. Defensively, the Yellow Jackets are allowing 11.3 points (12th nationally) and are unsure whether junior outside linebacker Quayshawn Nealy (hamstring) or sophomore safety Chris Milton (wrist) will be available due to injuries suffered in the North Carolina game.

TRENDS:

* Under is 5-1 in the last six meetings.
* Hokies are 1-4 ATS in their last five meetings.
* Underdog is 6-1 ATS in their last seven meetings.
* Road team is 6-1 ATS in their last seven meetings.

EXTRA POINTS:

1. Virginia Tech leads the series 7-3.

2. Georgia Tech is 18-0 when scoring 40 or more points in coach Paul Johnson’s six seasons.

3. The Hokies scored their 18th blocked-punt touchdown during coach Frank Beamer’s 27-season tenure last week when senior Kyle Fuller made the block and junior Derek DiNardo recovered and returned it 11 yards for a touchdown.

Iowa State at Tulsa: What bettors need to know
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Iowa State Cyclones at Tulsa Golden Hurricanes (-2.5, 54)

Despite a lack of familiarity with each other historically, Iowa State and Tulsa are far from strangers. On Thursday, the Golden Hurricane welcome the Cyclones in the third game between the schools over the last 12 months. Iowa State kicked off its 2012 campaign with a 38-23 comeback victory over Tulsa on Sept. 1, but the Golden Hurricane returned the favor 31-17 in the Liberty Bowl on Dec. 31 to cap off the second 11-win season in school history.

Both schools are off to a slow start in 2013 and coming off difficult losses. Iowa State fell to 0-2 for the first time since 2007 in a 27-21 home setback against Iowa on Sept. 14 despite a career day from sophomore receiver Quenton Bundrage. Tulsa was routed by Oklahoma 51-20 on the same day, allowing scores on nine of the Sooners’ 11 possessions while also surrendering 607 yards of total offense.

TV: 7:30 p.m. ET, Fox Sports 1.

LINE: Tulsa opened as a 3-point favorite and has been bet down to -2.5. The total has remained steady at 54 points.

WEATHER: Temperatures in the low 80s with clear skies and winds blowing SSE at 8 mph.

ABOUT IOWA STATE (0-2, 0-2 ATS): Bundrage set career highs with seven catches for 146 yards and three touchdowns, getting two of those scores over the final 4:27 as the Cyclones attempted to rally from a 20-point deficit. Sophomore quarterback Sam Richardson made his fourth career start against Iowa, but was still hampered by the sprained ankle he suffered in a season-opening loss to Northern Iowa. Coach Paul Rhoads suggested that if Richardson – who is also dealing with a groin injury – is limited Thursday, backup Grant Rohach will take over.

ABOUT TULSA (1-2, 0-3 ATS): The Golden Hurricane were unanimously selected to repeat as Conference USA West Division champions, but have been held to less than 95 yards rushing in each of their losses to Bowling Green and Oklahoma. "You can't just plan on becoming more physical and have it happen," coach Bill Blankenship said. "You have to grow into it. I hope that's where we are now." Senior running back Trey Watts has been a bright spot, however, and ranks third in the nation with 200 all-purpose yards per game.

TRENDS:

* Cyclones are 3-8 ATS in their last 11 games following a bye week.
* Golden Hurricane are 1-7 ATS in their last eight vs. Big 12.
* Under is 13-5 in Cyclones last 18 road games.
* Under is 7-2 in Golden Hurricane last 9 home games.

EXTRA POINTS:

1. Tulsa has won eight in a row at home, but each of the last four victories – and five of the last six – have come by six points or fewer.

2. Iowa State has yielded an average of 223 rushing yards over its first two games, which ranks 108th in FBS.

3. The Golden Hurricane’s two rushing touchdowns against the Sooners were their first of the season.

Friday's NCAAF action: What bettors need to know
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders at BYU Cougars (-23.5, 59.5)

The Blue Raiders have jumped out to a 3-1 start following an overtime win over FAU last weekend. They edged the Owls 42-35 on a Logan Kilgore pass to Kyle Griswould which covered the spread for MTU backers, their first payday of the year. Turnovers have been a big issue for Kilgore, who has thrown five INTs to his four TDs. He’s also been sacked nine times through four games, which ranks 110th in protection in the country.

Brigham Young has gone just 1-2 during a tough opening schedule. The Cougars fell to Utah 20-13 last weekend, failing to cover as 7-point home favorites. BYU is coming in ranked eighth in the country in rushing, plowing ahead for 306.7 yards per game. Dual-threat QB Taysom Hill is a big part of that attack, totaling 400 yards on the ground – the second most rushing yards for a QB this season.

LINE: BYU opened - 21.5 and has been bet up as high as -24. The total has remained steady at 59.5.
WEATHER: Temperatures in low 40s with partly cloudy skies and winds WNW at 6 mph.
TRENDS:

* Blue Raiders are 1-4-1 ATS in their last six games overall.
* Cougars are 1-4 ATS in their last five home games.
* Under is 5-2 in Blue Raiders last seven games overall.

Utah State Aggies at San Jose State Spartans (+9.5, 61.5)

Utah State nearly upset USC last weekend, falling 17-14 but managed to cover as 6.5-point road underdog. The Aggies defense has locked down opposing passers for just 152 yards per game – 12th in the country. But, funny enough, have yet to snatch an INT from an opponent this year.

They may get their chance for a pick or two visiting the Bay Area Friday. San Jose State is passing on 67.48 percent of its offensive plays this season, averaging 293.3 yards through the air. The Spartans have been up against stiff competition the past two games, losing to Stanford and Minnesota but splitting those outings ATS.

LINE: SJSU opened at +9.5 and remained steady around that number. The Total moved from 61 to 61.5.
WEATHER: Temperatures in low 70s with clear skies and winds NNW at 4 mph.
TRENDS:

* Road team is 5-2 ATS in their last seven meetings.
* Aggies are 7-1-1 ATS in their last nine road games.
* Spartans are 6-2 ATS in their last eight home games.

First road game for Virginia team that is 14-10 vs spread in last 24 games as a road underdog; Cavaliers were outgained by 398 yards in splitting a pair of I-A home games, beating BYU 19-16 in a monsoon, losing 59-10 to powerful Oregon. First road start for soph QB Watford. Pitt is 4-1 as a home favorite under Chryst; they got first ACC win last week, a 58-55 slugfest at Duke where Pitt's +4 turnover margin helped offset 532 total yards for Blue Devils. Well-traveled senior QB Savage is completing 65% of his passes- Panthers scored 107 points in last two games.

Home side won seven of last eight Iowa-Minnesota games, as favorites are 9-3 vs spread in last 12; Hawkeyes lost three of last four visits here, with losses by 1-3-10 points. Since '04, Iowa is 7-13 as a road favorite; they lost five of last six conference road games, are 2-4 vs spread in last six as a Big Dozen road favorite. Minnesota is 3-8 in last 11 conference home games; they scored 51-44-43 points in winning first three games vs I-A teams this year, but opponents were perennial doormats. Redshirt freshman QB Leidner played last week; Gophers are combined 23-39 passing in their last three games, thats not much passing.

LSU QB Mettenberger started college career at Georgia; his mom works in the Dawgs' athletic department, but got this week off. Tigers won last two series games 20-13/42-10, holding Georgia to total of 123 yards on ground-- three of last seven meetings were in SEC title game. LSU beat TCU 37-27 in Dallas, a semi-road game; they're 7-7 as underdogs under Miles, 5-6 on road. Georgia has veteran offense (QB has 44 career starts, OL has 116); they're 12-8 in last 20 games as a home favorite, but they also have eight new starters on defense, and LSU OC Cameron is an NFL vet who will exploit weaknesses. Dawgs scored 35-41 points in its first two games vs Clemson/South Carolina.

Home side won last five Arizona-Washington games; Wildcats are 2-5 in last seven visits here, losing 42-31/36-33 in last two. Favorites covered four of last five series games. Wildcats had 277 rushing yards, 256 in air in 52-17 (-7.5) thrashing of U-Dub LY. Huskies scored 38-34 points in winning its first two I-A games; they're 6-2 in last eight games as home faves. With 18 starters back; QB has 29 starts, OL 81 this is best offense Sarkisian has had (592/615 TY vs Boise/Illinois). Arizona is 4-2 as dogs in RichRod era, 2-2 on road; they crushed pair of cupcakes in their first two I-A games, but at least one was on road, at UNLV.

Alabama won its last nine games vs Ole Miss, but Rebels covered six of last eight, including last four visits here, in losses by 3-4-13-19. Freeze is 22-6 vs spread in his last 28 lined games, with Rebels/Ark State. Bama is 2-8 vs spread in last ten home games; last time they lost to team outside top 20 was 2007. Ole Miss is #21. Total yardage in LY's game was just 305-218, Bama. Rebels scored 44-39 points in winning pair of games on road already this season, at Vandy/Texas, gaining 938 TY in those games. Ole Miss is 4-1 as road dogs under Freeze- they've got 97 starts back on OL and vet QB hitting 64% of passes. Alabama is 3-0 and hasn't really been threatened (were down 14-0 at A&M) but they've been outgained from scrimmage in two of those three wins.

USC won 12 of last 13 games with Arizona State, but lost 43-22 in last visit here; favorites are 8-3 in last 11 series games, but this is just second time in last 13 meetings ASU has been favored. Sun Devils gave up 471 rushing yards last two weeks; who made their schedule? They're playing Wisconsin-Stanford-USC-Notre Dame on consecutive Saturdays. Damn. Trojans have veteran OL (105 starts) but they've scored 7-17 points in close games with Wazzu/Utah State this month- they're 4-1 as road dogs under Kiffin. ASU is 18-13 in last 31 games as a home favorite (4-2 in Graham era). ASU has edge in experience at QB.

Texas A&M passed for 498 yards in 58-10 drubbing of Arkansas LY, as Aggies ended three-game series skid, having allowed 113 points in those three losses. Arkansas is 1-6 vs spread at home since Petrino left town; they were 13-5-1 as HFs in Petrino era. Hogs gave up 346 passing yards in 28-24 loss at Rutgers last week, when they blew 24-7 lead, despite a +3 turnover ratio. First road game for Aggies, who were 4-1 vs spread on road LY. A&M is scoring 45.3 ppg vs I-A opponents this year, scoring 42 in home loss to Alabama- they gained 1,209 yards in two games that Manziel started that were against I-A teams (Bama/SMU).

Notre Dame (+12.5) won 30-13 at Oklahoma LY, outrushing Sooners by 215-15 margin; Irish just went 2-1 vs Big Dozen teams, winning by 7-4 vs Purdue/Michigan State, despite completing only 14-34 passes against Spartans. ND is 5-3 as home dogs since 2005, 1-1 in Kelly era; since '04, Sooners are 14-18-1 as road favorites- this is first road start for Bell, who threw only 16 passes LY but is 30-43/451 throwing ball so far this year. He is a strong runner. This is first road game for Oklahoma squad with seven new starters on defense. ND drew four PI penalties against Michigan State last week, a couple when they needed them most.

Colorado hasn't played in three weeks because of floods in Boulder and then a scheduled bye; Buffs are just 3-13 as road dogs since '10, but new coach MacIntyre was 10-5 as road dog at San Jose, covering seven of last nine such chances. While Buffs weren't playing, Oregon State won pair of wild road games, 51-48 in OT at Utah, 34-30 at San Diego State, when they scored two TDs in 0:19 in last 3:00 for win. Beavers are 6-10 in last 16 games as home favorites- don't forget they lost 49-46 in opener to Eastern Washington- they've allowed 30+ points in three of four games. Colorado WR Richardson is one of best players on west coast-- he has 21 catches for 417 (19.9 avg) yards and four TDs in his first two games.

Central Florida has NFL-caliber QB in Bortles and O'Leary is very good coach, so Knights are no pushover for South Carolina squad that is 7-5-2 as road favorite under Spurrier, but lost only road game 41-30 ar Georgia earlier this month. UCF is 8-6 in its last 14 games as home underdog but this also first time since '09 they've been a home dog. Knights outgained Penn State 507-455 in 34-31 win at Happy Valley in last game. Carolina is 12-7-1 vs spread in its last 19 non-SEC games. Bortles is completing 71% of his passes; Knights covered 13 of last 18 non-league games, and had great balance at Penn State, running for 219 yards, passing for 288.

Florida outscored Kentucky 92-3 in first half of their last five meetings; Gators won last five meetings by average score of 48-7, but this is first college start for backup QB Murphy, who was 8-14 passing last week as he subbed for fallen starter Driskel (ankle, out for year). Florida is 2-2 as road favorites under Muschamp, after covering eight of last ten as a HF in Meyer era. Kentucky allowed 487-492 yards in losses this season to WKU (35-26, -4) and Louisvile (27-13, -14)- their only win was against hapless Miami, OH. Florida lost its only other road game this season, 21-16 (-3) to the Miami Hurricanes.

Stanford won last five games with Washington State by average score of 40-14, with road team covering last four series games. Cardinal won last two visits here 44-14/39-13, but Leach is making progress establishing his program in Pullman. Coogs won SU at USC 10-7, holding Trojans to 193 TY, then they beat couple stiff teams- they're 7-4 in last 11 games as a home dog. Stanford gave up 391 passing yards in 42-28 home win over ASU last week, a game that wasn't as close as final score indicated. Cardinal is 12-3 in last 15 games as a road favorite, 8-2 in 2+ years under Shaw- they better not look ahead to next week's Washington game.

Wisconsin coach Anderson is 15-2 vs spread as road dog after covering in bizarre 32-30 (+7) loss at Arizona State couple weeks ago; Badgers lost five of last six games with Ohio State with underdogs winning three in row SU and covering seven of last ten. Wisky lost last three at Ohio State by 4-18-21 points- they covered four of last five games as a road dog. Buckeyes have two quality QBs; they're 8-4 vs spread in last dozen games as Big Dozen home favorite. TY in Wisky-ASU game: 468-441 in favor of Sun Devils, with Kelly passing for 352 yards. OSU allowed 371 passing yards in 52-34 win at Cal two weeks ago, but gained 608 yards in what was game that wasn't as close as the final score.

Saturday's NCAAF Top 25 betting cheat sheet: Afternoon action
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Miami Hurricanes at South Florida Bulls (+19, 47)

Miami Senior quarterback Stephen Morris suffered an ankle injury last week, but is expected to play. The Hurricanes have allowed only 29 points in three games, keyed by junior linebacker Denzel Perryman’s 20 tackles.

South Florida’s quarterbacks are struggling and five defensive touchdowns have been scored against the Bulls. Sophomore Steven Bench, a transfer from Penn State, is expected to be the third different starter at quarterback after completing 8-of-23 passes for 128 yards in the 28-10 loss to Florida Atlantic on Sept. 14. The Bulls have turned the ball over eight times.

LINE: Miami opened -20.5 and has moved as low as -18. Total moved from 48.5 to 47.
WEATHER: Temperatures in mid 80s, 20 percent chance of thunderstorms, winds NE 7 mph.
TRENDS:

* Under is 5-0 in the last five meetings.
* Road team is 4-1 ATS in their last five meetings.
* Bulls are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 vs. ACC.

Oklahoma State Cowboys at West Virginia Mountaineers (+19, 57)

Oklahoma State tallied 115 points in its last two games and is tied for 10th in the country in scoring at 45.3 points per game coming out of an early bye week. Senior Jeremy Smith leads the team with six rushing touchdowns, including three first-half scores in the Cowboys’ 59-3 win against Lamar last week. Oklahoma State racked up 426 total yards in that victory.

West Virginia redshirt freshman Ford Childress is expected to start his third consecutive game despite floundering against the Terrapins last week. West Virginia has scored seven total points in its two losses. Coming off a 37-0 shutout to Maryland, the Mountaineers will look to stay above .500 under third-year coach Dana Holgorsen, who served as Oklahoma State’s offensive coordinator in 2010.

LINE: OSU opened -20.5 and has moved to -19. Total moved between 57 and 58.
WEATHER: Temperatures in mid 60s, clear skies, winds 5 mph SE
TRENDS:

* Cowboys are 1-6 ATS in their last seven road games.
* Mountaineers are 2-6 ATS in their last eight home games.
* Under is 7-0 in Mountaineers last seven games overall.

South Carolina Gamecocks at UCF Knights (+7, 53)

The Gamecocks, whose only loss was at Georgia, 41-30, are coming off a bye following a 35-25 home win over Vanderbilt. Senior quarterback Connor Shaw is completing 64.9 percent of his passes and has thrown six touchdowns without an interception.

Central Florida enters Saturday's game unbeaten and with arguably the more impressive win. The Knights (3-0), who have scored at least 30 points in their first three games of a season for the first time in school history, are coming off a 34-31 upset of Penn State in Happy Valley.

LINE: UCF opened +7.5 and moved to +7. Total steady at 53.
WEATHER: Temperatures in low 80s, 19 percent chance of rain, winds NE 12 mph
TRENDS:

* Gamecocks are 6-2 ATS in their last eight non-conference games.
* Knights are 4-1 ATS in their last five home games.
* Over is 5-1 in Gamecocks last six road games.

Oklahoma Sooners at Notre Dame Fighting Irish (+3.5, 50)

The Irish used their passing game to stretch Michigan State and put pressure on the cornerbacks last week, drawing several penalties that kept drives alive and helped lead to a 17-13 triumph. Notre Dame is looking for its 11th straight home win.

Oklahoma is getting its biggest test of the first month and had an off week to prepare for the Fighting Irish after trouncing Tulsa on Sept. 14. The Sooners are bringing a different starting quarterback into this matchup, with junior Blake Bell proving himself after passing for 413 yards and four touchdowns in the win over Tulsa.

LINE: Notre Dame opened -1 and moved to +3.5. Total moved from 48.5 to 50.
WEATHER: Temperatures in mid 70s, clear skies, winds south 12 mph
TRENDS:

* Sooners are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 non-conference games.
* Fighting Irish are 1-5-1 ATS in their last seven home games.
* Under is 25-9-1 in Fighting Irish's last 35 non-conference games.

LSU Tigers at Georgia Bulldogs (-3, 62)

The Tigers have outscored opponents 173-88 and have not trailed at any point, but they also haven't yet played in a hostile environment like they'll face between the hedges. LSU's offense has taken flight under new coordinator Cam Cameron, as the Tigers have topped 30 points in their first four games for only the third time in history - and the first since 1928.

The Bulldogs put a 14-game home winning streak on the line and are after their second home win over a top-10 opponent after a 41-30 victory over South Carolina two weeks ago. Georgia's offense has been dynamic with quarterback Aaron Murray and running back Todd Gurley - the SEC's leading rusher at 125.7 yards per game.

LINE: Georgia opened -4.5 and moved to -3. Total steady at 62.
WEATHER: Temperatures in mid 70s, clear skies, winds ENE 6 mph
TRENDS:

* Over is 5-1 in the last six meetings.
* Tigers are 3-7 ATS in their last 10 conference games.
* Bulldogs are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games overall.

Florida State Seminoles at Boston College Eagles (+23.5)

Spurred by the country’s 19th-ranked running game, the Seminoles look to extend a seven-game win streak in ACC play. The Seminoles have been remarkably efficient on offense, averaging 8.8 yards per play - the third-best mark in the nation. However, the defense has created only four turnovers and allowed 43 more rushing yards per game than it did a season ago.

Boston College, which had the FBS' 10th-worst run defense in 2012, appeared to be making strides in that area until it surrendered 257 yards in a 35-7 loss at Southern California last Saturday. However, the Eagles’ best chance at winning this game may come behind running back Andre Williams, who leads the conference in rushing.

LINE: FSU opened -22.5 and moved to -23.5. Total moved 52 to 54.
WEATHER: Temperatures in low 60s, clear skies, winds east 6 mph
TRENDS:

* Underdog is 5-2 ATS in their last seven meetings.
* Road team is 6-2 ATS in their last eight meetings.

Saturday's NCAAF Top 25 betting cheat sheet: Evening action
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mississippi Rebels at Alabama Crimson Tide (-14, 55)

The Rebels are after their first 4-0 start since 1970, but haven't beaten Alabama since 2003 and have only one victory in 25 trips to Tuscaloosa, Ala. he Rebels also have an explosive star in running back Jeff Scott, who set career highs in rushing yards (164) and all-purpose yards (243) against Texas.

The Crimson Tide's offense has been inconsistent and struggled to get going in last week's win over Colorado State. The defense has not been as dominant as in years past, but Vinnie Sunseri has a pair of interception returns for touchdowns to contribute to five non-offensive touchdowns in three games.

LINE: Alabama opened -16.5 and has moved to -14. Total movef from 56.5 to 55.
WEATHER: Temperatures in mid 70s, clear skies, winds east 4 mph.
TRENDS:

* Rebels are 6-2 ATS in their last eight meetings.
* Underdog is 6-2 ATS in their last eight meetings.
* Road team is 5-0 ATS in their last five meetings.

Arizona Wildcats at Washington Huskies (-10, 62)

While the defense has spearheaded the strong start, the Wildcats are averaging 43.7 points behind a rushing attack – led by junior Ka’Deem Carey – that ranks fifth nationally with 322.3 yards per game. Carey has 299 yards despite missing the opener due to a suspension and has rushed for 100 or more yards in each of his last six games.

The No. 20 Huskies have topped 500 total yards in each of their first three games. Junior middle linebacker and defensive leader John Timu (18 tackles) is back after missing a game with a shoulder injury and still hasn’t forgotten the painful feeling from when Arizona racked up 277 rushing yards and 533 overall in last season’s meeting.

LINE: Washington opened -7 and moved to -10. Total moved from 63.5 to 62.
WEATHER: Temperatures in low 60s with 100 percent chance of rain, winds SSW 11 mph.
TRENDS:

* Over is 6-0 in the last six meetings.
* Favorite is 4-1 ATS in their last five meetings.
* Wildcats are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 meetings.

Texas A&M Aggies at Arkansas Razorbacks (+14, 62)

Texas A&M scored at least 40 points in its first four games for the first time in school history. QB Johnny Manziel has accounted for 15 touchdowns while averaging 370.8 yards of total offense per game and completing 70 percent of his passes.

The Razorbacks are starting the toughest stretch of their schedule with their meeting against Texas A&M, followed by a game at Florida, a home contest against South Carolina and a visit to Alabama. After rushing for 883 yards in its first three games, Arkansas was held to 101 yards against Rutgers.

LINE: Texas A&M opened -14 and is as high as -15. Total moved from 62.5 to 62.

* Razorbacks are 19-8 ATS in their last 27 home games.
* Under is 6-2 in Aggies last eight road games.

Florida Gators at Kentucky Wildcats (+12, 47)

Tyler Murphy, a junior, was the choice for the Gators after junior Jeff Driskel suffered a season-ending broken right leg during the first quarter of last week’s league opener against Tennessee. Murphy finished with 218 total yards while running for one touchdown and passing for another in the 31-17 victory, good enough to earn another shot against the Wildcats.

Kentucky also lost starting quarterback Maxwell Smith to a right shoulder injury during its most recent game, but he was back at practice this week and the Wildcats are anticipating he'll be in the starting lineup for their conference opener against the Gators.

LINE: Florida opened -14 and moved to -12. Total moved from 45.5 to 47.
WEATHER: Temperatures in mid 70s, partly cloudy skies, winds SW 5 mph.
TRENDS:

* Gators are 6-0 ATS in their last six meetings.
* Favorite is 6-0 ATS in their last six meetings.
* Gators are 7-2 ATS in their last nine meetings in Kentucky.

Wisconsin Badgers at Ohio State Buckeyes (-6, 55.5)

Wisconsin RB Melvin Gordon – the conference’s Offensive Co-Player of the Week – leads the nation with 624 yards on the ground while his seven rushing touchdowns rank third in the country. He is joined by senior running back James White – who is the FBS' active career leader in rushing yards (3,013).

Although backup Kenny Guiton has thrown for a school-record 12 touchdowns over the past three weeks in place of QB Braxton Miller (sprained left MCL), coach Urban Meyer will likely turn back to his regular starter. Gordon led the Buckeyes to an average of 64 points in his two starts.

LINE: OSU opened -9.5 and moved to -6. Total moved from 54 to 55.5.
WEATHER: Temperatures in low 70s, clear skies, winds SSE 5 mph.
TRENDS:

* Underdog is 10-3 ATS in their last 13 meetings.
* Badgers are 1-5 ATS in their last six meetings.

Stanford Cardinal at Washington State Cougars (+9.5, 47.5)

The Cardinal will be without star safety Ed Reynolds for the first half, a result of a hit to the helmet last week. Stanford enters the game winners of 11 straight, the second-longest streak in the nation. Stanford G David Yankey will miss the game because of an unspecified "family situation".

The Cougars, ranked 10th in the nation in total defense, have won three straight for the first time since 2006 and are allowing 12 points per contest. Leach's offense still remains formidable as quarterback Connor Halliday has already thrown for more than 300 yards three times.

LINE: Stanford has remained steady at -9.5. Total moved from 48 to 47.5.
WEATHER: Temperatures in mid 50s, 100 percent chance of rain, winds SSW 11 mph.

* Road team is 4-0 ATS in their last four meetings.

California Golden Bears at Oregon Ducks (-36, 84)

Golden Bears freshman quarterback Jared Goff leads the nation in passing at 435.3 yards per game, and he’ll need another strong effort to keep pace with the explosive Ducks. Cal has yet to hold an opponent to less than 30 points and ranks 119th among the 123 FBS teams in points allowed per game at 42.

The Ducks are holding opponents to an average of nine points and are ranked second in the country in turnover margin at plus-2.3. Oregon has outscored its opponents 184-27 and has won four straight in the series.

LINE: Oregon opened -34.5 and moved to -36. Total moved from 84.5 to 84.

* Under is 5-1 in the last six meetings.
* Home team is 4-1 ATS in their last five meetings.

Fresno State Bulldogs at Hawaii Warriors (+18.5, 58.5)

After snapping a seven-game losing streak against Boise State last week, No. 23 Fresno State looks to avoid a letdown. QB Derek Carr has been nearly unstoppable in the Bulldogs’ up-tempo offense, and sophomore Davante Adams has caught a touchdown pass in 11 straight games.

Hawaii starting quarterback Taylor Graham suffered an injury to his left (non-throwing) shoulder in the first half of last week’s 31-9 loss at Nevada, and is listed as day-to-day. The Rainbow Warriors used three quarterbacks after Graham left the game, and they combined to commit six turnovers, including four interceptions.

WEATHER: Temperatures in mid 70s, 30 percent chance of rain, winds NNE 9 mph.

* Road team is 7-1 ATS in their last eight meetings.
