      College football odds: Week 6 opening line report

      In one of the most entertaining games of the season thus far, the Georgia Bulldogs defeated the LSU Tigers 44-41 in a matchup of two SEC heavyweights.

      The Bulldogs (3-1 SU, 1-2-1 ATS) have beaten some big names to start the season with their only blemish coming courtesy of the Clemson Tigers in the opening game of the campaign.

      Coming off that massive win against LSU, the Bulldogs now must travel to Tennessee to face the Volunteers (3-2 SU, 2-3 ATS).

      Georgia has won straight up in three consecutive meetings with the Volunteers and both won and covered as 2.5-point faves in Knoxville back in 2011; the last meeting at Tennessee.

      Peter Korner, founder of the Nevada-based odds service The Sports Club, sent out a line of Bulldogs -14 after he and his team were all between 13 and 17.

      "Offshores have lower and we could've gone that way with Georgia RB (Todd) Gurly questionable but with him in the lineup, I like where we're at."

      Maryland Terrapins at Florida State Seminoles (-17)

      The Maryland Terrapins (4-0 SU, 4-0 ATS) have satisfied faithful backers so far during an unblemished start to the season. Maryland is one of four programs in the country that is 4-0 ATS and one of just eight squads without an ATS loss. But Korner feels they'll have their hands full with quarterback Jameis Winston and the Seminoles (4-0 SU, 3-1 ATS).

      "The range went from -14 to -21 and we decided in the middle with FSU -17," Korner told Covers. "Maryland has shown well of late and are competitive here. I wouldn't be surprised to see this line drop a little. But FSU's overall team strength in so many areas will show through here."

      Arizona State Sun Devils vs. Notre Dame Fighting Irish (+4)

      Played at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas

      The Irish (3-2, 0-4-1) are coming off a poor performance at home against the Oklahoma Sooners which saw them on the wrong end of a 35-21 scoreline. The Irish have been fairly abysmal both on the field and against the spread. They are one of just eight teams that have yet to cover a spread this season.

      "This is in a neutral field and to tell you the truth, we don't like Notre Dame at all," said Korner. "We sent out ASU -4 but a gun to our heads we could easily go higher. Notre Dame can't stop anyone and they're facing a quality team here."

      Ohio State Buckeyes at Northwestern Wildcats (+6)

      The Buckeyes (5-0 SU, 3-1-1 ATS) are coming off a massive 31-24 win against Wisconsin to get their Big 10 season off to a great start. It won't get easier for them as they (along with College Gameday) go to Evanston, Illinois to face the Northwestern Wildcats (4-0 SU, 2-2 ATS), who are off to a great start themselves.

      "We were all around the -6 number. There wasn't much to discuss here. Big Ten clash with two good teams. I don't see this number running in either direction by kick-off."

            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: Northern Illinois Huskies (4-0 SU, 2-2 ATS)

            This week: +9 at Kent State

            The Huskies won’t sneak up on anyone this year - not after going 12-1 in the 2012 regular season en route to an Orange Bowl appearance. Still, they’re rolling even with a bulls-eye on their back. So far in 2013, Northern Illinois’ 4-0 record includes defeats of Iowa and Purdue. The MAC favorites have scored at least 30 points in all four contests and they have posted at least 43 points in three of four.

            Ranked No. 23 in the USA Today poll, NIU is 6-2-1 ATS in its last nine road games and 12-5-2 ATS in its last 19 overall. On Saturday it will visit a Kent State team that is 1-3-1 ATS in its last five home games and 0-5-1 ATS in its last six against the Huskies. The Golden Flashes’ three losses this season have all come by at least 19 points.


            Team to beware: UL Monroe Warhawks (2-3 SU, 1-4 ATS)

            This week: +7 vs. Western Kentucky

            What a difference a year makes. In 2012, the Warhawks beat Arkansas, lost to Auburn in overtime, and made it to a bowl game. By comparison, last season they barely lost to Baylor 47-42 and issued a 63-10 beatdown on Tulane. This season they got humiliated by Baylor 70-7 and fell to Tulane 31-14 (Tulane, meanwhile, was coming off a 52-17 blowout loss at Syracuse).

            Heading into Thursday’s home game against Western Kentucky, Louisiana-Monroe is 1-6 ATS in its last seven at home, 1-5 ATS in its last six overall, and 0-4 ATS in its last four against teams with winning records. The Hilltoppers are 3-2 with a win over SEC foe Kentucky. They are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 against opponents with losing records. UL Monroe also lost star QB Kolton Browning to injury and will be handing the offense to sophomore Brayle Brown.


            Total team: Troy Trojans (2-3 SU, 5-0 O/U)

            This week: 61.5 vs. South Alabama

            The over is 11-1 in Troy’s last 12 overall, 6-0 in its last six home games, and 5-1 in its last six against Sun Belt opposition. Its first conference contest of 2013 resulted in a 41-34 loss at Arkansas State. Ironically, the Trojans’ last conference game of 2012 was a setback by the same score to the same team.

            Last season they pinned 31 points on a South Alabama that is 2-2 so far this season. The Jaguars have scored at least 21 points in all four games and have given up at least 22 in all four. They will have to shore up their pass defense (249.0 yards per game) against a Troy squad that is averaging 320.8 yards per game through the air.

                Armadillo's Write-Up

                Week 6


                Thursday's games

                Texas QB Ash (concussion) is out; McCoy gets start here, with a more mobile QB Swoopes expected to play. Longhorns are 7-1 in last eight games vs Iowa State, winning 33-7/37-14 in last two meetings. Texas won last four visits to Ames, with last three wins here by 21+; they're 11-7 in last 18 games as road favorite, but lost 40-21 at BYU in only road game this yeaer, allowing 550 rushing yards. Cyclones are 6-9 as home underdogs under Rhoads- they've already lost to a I-AA team this year, having lost 13 of 22 starters from LY. Texas covered four of last six series games.

                Last four Western Kentucky-ULM games were decided by total of 12 points, with underdogs covering all four and ULM winning three-- teams split a pair of 3-point decisions here. ULM has 673 passing yards in last two meetings. WKU is 4-1 as road favorite but is 0-2 on road this year; they gave up 82 points in losses at Tennessee/USA. ULM won at Wake Forest but lost last week as 13-point home favorite vs Tulane, bad loss; they are 7-5 in last dozen games as a home dog. Hilltoppers beat Navy and Kentucky but turned ball over five times in six plays at Tennessee.

                Home side won last four UCLA-Utah games, with three of four games decided by 21+ points. Bruins are 4-2 as road favorite last five seasons, 2-2 under Mora- they're scoring 52.7 ppg this year, winning 41-21 in its only road game, at Nebraska. Over last decade, Utah is 6-2 as home dog; its two I-A home games this year were decided by total of seven points. UCLA outgained first three opponents by average of 206 yards a game, running ball for 284.3 ypg. Utes allowed 443+ TY in all three of its I-A games; they've been off since 20-13 (+6.5) rivalry win at BYU.


                Friday's games

                This is first time this century Utah State is fave in this series; underdogs are 8-3 vs spread in last eleven meetings, with BYU winning 10 of last 11 series games but Aggies covered last five, losing 6-3/27-24 in last two meetings. State opened with four road games in five weeks, losing by 4 at Utah, 3 at USC- they're 5-1 in last six games as a home favorite. Cougars lost rivalry game to Utah at home; they scored 16-13 in losses this year, 37-40 in wins, losing by 3 at rainy Virginia in only away game. BYU covered its last seven games as a road underdog; they've won three of last four visits here, but did not cover any of the four.

                Dingwell came off bench to spark San Diego State's 39-38 (+6.5) win LY at Nevada; 1-3 Aztecs are struggling this year, blowing home game late vs Oregon State (threw pick-6 with lead in last 4:00) and beating a lowly New Mexico State team only 26-16 last week. Nevada got whacked bad in money grab games at UCLA/Florida State, then beat Hawai'i and Air Force at home; 375 rushing yards Falcons gained with its #1 QB out for game is alarming for Wolf Pack defense. Nevada is 7-8 in last 15 games as a road underdog. Aztecs are 10-7 in last 17 games as a home favorite.

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

                  Texas Longhorns at Iowa State Cyclones (+8, 56.5)

                  A win over Kansas State quieted the critics briefly, but Texas still has some work to do to get back national attention. The Longhorns look to put together back-to-back wins for the first time this season when they visit Iowa State on Thursday. Texas coach Mack Brown is under fire to put a championship-caliber team back on the field, and even school legend Earl Campbell recently called for his firing.

                  “Nobody likes to get fired or leave a job, but things happen,” Campbell told KRIV-TV in Houston. “I’d go on record and say yes, I think it’s time.” Brown is under contract until 2020 with one of the largest annual salaries in the NCAA but is just 24-18 since a loss to Alabama in the 2009 National Championship game. The Cyclones don’t have quite the storied history of the Longhorns but are always a pesky opponent for the Big 12’s top tier and are coming off an impressive win over Tulsa.

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

                  LINE: Texas opened at -9 and has moved to -7.5. Total moved from 56 to 56.5.

                  WEATHER: Temperatures in low 70s, with 73 percent chance of thunder showers, winds blowing S at 3 mph.

                  TRENDS:

                  * Under is 5-2 in the last seven meetings.
                  * Road team is 6-1 ATS in their last seven meetings.
                  * Under is 35-17 in Cyclones' last 52 games overall.


                  Western Kentucky Hilltopppers at UL Monroe Warhawks (+7, 48.5)

                  The Warhawks will be without starting QB Kolton Browning Thursday. He is expected to miss the rest of the season due to a quad injury. Browning, who has passed for 967 yards, seven touchdowns and six interceptions, will be replaced with backup sophomore Brayle Brown, who is making his first start. UL Monroe is 2-3 on the year, having lost two straight and allowing 101 total points in defeats to Baylor and Tulane.

                  Western Kentucky comes into Thursday riding back-to-back wins over FCS Morgan State and Navy, covering the spread in both games. Hilltoppers RB Antonio Andrews has been a dominant force on offense with 727 rushing yards, 154 receiving yards and seven touchdowns. WKU will be out for revenge after losing to ULM in overtime during last year’s homecoming.

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

                  LINE: WKU opened as a 4.5-point favorite and was bet up to -7. Total steady at 48.5.

                  WEATHER: Temperatures in low 80s, 20 percent chance of thunder showers with winds blowing SE at 6 mph.

                  TRENDS:

                  * Underdog is 4-0 ATS in their last four meetings.
                  * Road team is 4-0 ATS in their last four meetings.
                  * Warhawks are 1-5 ATS in their last six games overall.


                  UCLA Bruins at Utah Utes (+5.5, 60.5)

                  After winning its first three games in convincing fashion, UCLA begins Pac-12 play on Saturday at Utah, where the 13th-ranked Bruins have been outscored 75-12 in their last two visits. The Utes have the personnel to keep pace with a UCLA offense averaging 52.7 points, but Utah's defense remains a question mark. Both teams are coming off a bye week, and UCLA should be particularly well-rested after routing New Mexico State 59-13 on Sept. 21.

                  Utah opened the last two seasons with four straight conference losses before dropping this year's opener 51-48 in overtime to Oregon State on Sept. 14. The Utes followed the close loss with an impressive 20-13 win at BYU on Sept. 21, when sophomore quarterback Travis Wilson continued his strong play with 273 passing yards and two touchdowns. Wilson needs a repeat performance against UCLA, which is seeking its first 4-0 start since 2005 after winning its first three games by a total of 93 points.

                  TV: 10 p.m. ET, Fox Sports 1.

                  LINE: UCLA opened as a 3.5-point favorite and has moved to -5.5. Total moved from 61.5 to 60.5.

                  WEATHER: Temperatures in the low 40s with 71 percent chance of snow and winds blowing NNW at 13 mph.

                  TRENDS:

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

                      BYU Cougars at Utah State Aggies (-6, 57.5)

                      The Brigham Young Cougars boast one of the most robust rushing games in the NCAA - but they'll face a significant test Friday night as they visit the Utah State Aggies at Romney Stadium. Utah State is allowing an average of 17 points per game - good for 23rd in the nation - and has surrendered fewer than 127 rushing yards per game through its first five contests. The Aggies will have to deal with a dual threat in the BYU backfield, with quarterback Taysom Hill fifth in the country at 141.3 rushing yards per game and running back Jamaal Williams13th at 126 ypg.

                      Utah State could use a boost with the return to form of Joe Hill. The junior running back has been battling injuries all season and had just nine carries for 30 yards in last week's one-sided win over San Jose State. Hill is considered day-to-day for Friday's game. Backup Joey DeMartino has fared well in Hill's absence - carrying 34 times for 297 yards - but lacks breakaway speed and could find things difficult against a formidable Cougars defense. BYU holds a 45-34-3 edge in the all-time series, including a 6-3 victory last Oct. 5.

                      TV: 8 p.m. ET, CBS Sports Network

                      LINE: Utah State opened as a six-point favorite but the line has since dropped to -5.5. The O/U has climbed from 56.5 to 57.5.

                      WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the high-40s with clear skies and wind blowing from north to south across the length of the field at 5 mph.

                      TRENDS:

                      * The Cougars are 10-1 ATS in their last 11 games against the Mountain West Conference.
                      * The Aggies are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games following a SU win of more than 20 points.
                      * The under is 11-1 in BYU's last 12 Friday games.



                      Nevada Wolf Pack at San Diego State Aztecs (-6, 58)

                      The Wolf Pack offense is rolling again following a momentary hiccup, and will look to carry over its momentum into Friday's showdown with Mountain West rival San Diego State. Nevada scored 76 points in consecutive victories over Hawaii and Air Force, and hits the road for the first time since a 62-7 drubbing at the hands of the Florida State Seminoles. The Aztecs are also coming off a victory, defeating the New Mexico State Aggies 26-16 last weekend to halt a season-opening three-game losing streak.

                      Nevada is led by multi-talented quarterback Cody Fajardo, who threw for 389 yards and three touchdowns and added a pair of rushing scores in last week's 45-42 win over Air Force. Fajardo did considerable damage despite dealing with a knee injury that forced him to miss games against the Seminoles and Warriors. The junior signal caller will be wearing a knee brace against San Diego State as a precautionary measure, but has told reporters that the device does not inhibit his ability to run.

                      TV: 9 p.m. ET, ESPN

                      LINE: SDSU opened as a 5.5-point favorite, but the line has since shifted to six. The O/U has risen from 57 to 58.

                      WEATHER: Temperatures will be in the mid-70s with clear skies and calm winds.

                      TRENDS:

                      * Nevada is 1-7-1 ATS in its last nine games after scoring 40 points in its previous contest.
                      * SDSU is 6-1 ATS in its last seven conference games.
                      * The over is 7-1 in the Aztecs' last eight games against teams with winning road records.

                              Saturday, October 5


                              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                              Where the action is: Saturday's NCAAF line moves
                              ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                              The odds are jumping all over the NCAAF Week 6 board, especially in Big Ten matchups. We talk with sportsbooks about the biggest line adjustments, betting trends and where the odds will end up come kickoff Saturday:

                              Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at Miami Hurricanes – Open: -4.5, Move: -7

                              Early money came in strong on Miami and forced books to jump right over the dead number of -5 and go straight to -6. That massive move didn’t stop the action on the Hurricanes and some books have gone as high as a touchdown on this ACC contest.

                              “With over 90 percent of the action on the Hurricanes, we reluctantly went to Miami -7 in hopes of seeing some kind of buyback as well as stopping our bettors from just hammering Miami because our liability on this game is significant,” Michael Stewart of CarbonSports.ag, tells Covers. “But there’s no question, our sharper players are going to take the seven in this game.”


                              Illinois Fighting Illini at Nebraska Cornhuskers – Open: -10, Move: -8.5

                              The status of Nebraska QB Taylor Martinez has shrunk this Big Ten line. Martinez is going to miss Saturday’s home game, leaving the Huskers to go with redshirt freshman Tommy Armstrong Jr. under center.

                              “Even if (Martinez) played, he would be playing hurt,” Aron Black of Bet365.com, tells Covers. “Turf toe is not an easy thing to just ignore. Action has liked Illinois plus the points since release and with the recent news the total has gone to a low of 59.5 and back to 60 but is still getting played Over.”


                              Georgia State Panthers at Alabama Crimson Tide – Open: 57, Move: 54

                              Surprisingly, bettors are siding with the Panthers against the defending national champs. Alabama’s defense has lost a bit of its luster and the early action isn’t sold on the Tide covering this massive pointspread.

                              “With this spread in the 50s, we can move this game as aggressively as we want without worrying about it landing,” says Stewart.


                              Minnesota Golden Gophers at Michigan Wolverines – Open: -20.5, Move: -18.5

                              Michigan is coming off a bye after two less-than-impressive outings versus Akron and UConn, failing to cover the spread in both contests. Minnesota had its undefeated streak snapped at home to Iowa last weekend, a game in which the betting public was all over the underdog Hawkeyes.

                              “Action has been on Minnesota plus the points before moves, but Michigan is a banker for the weekend on a lot of parlay tickets,” says Black.


                              Penn State Nittany Lions at Indiana Hoosiers – Open: +4.5, Move: +3.5

                              Sharp money swayed this line Wednesday, coming in hard on the home underdog and forcing this line to move a point. The sharps have been pounding Indiana while the public is balancing that action with money on PSU, making this a Sharps-vs.-Squares Big Ten battle.

                              “With 75 percent of the action backing Penn State, we might consider going back to +4 but at this point we want to write more Penn State tickets because we respect the Indiana side,” says Stewart.
