NCAAF

Friday, September 23

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NCAAF Game of the Day: USC at Utah
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The home team is 5-0 ATS in the last five meetings between USC and Utah. The Utes are currently 3-pt home faves.

USC Trojans at Utah Utes (-3, 46.5)

USC is off to its worst start since 2001 and its upcoming schedule won't get any easier as the Trojans travel to face No. 23 Utah in a Pac-12 game Friday night. USC is coming off a 27-10 loss Saturday at No. 6 Stanford, which dropped its record to 1-2 for the first time since Pete Carroll's first season with the Trojans 15 years ago, and coach Clay Helton responded by replacing starting quarterback Max Browne, a junior, with freshman Sam Darnold.

The Utes won't have any pity for USC after the Trojans upset them 42-24 last season when they came to Los Angeles ranked No. 7, spoiling a 6-0 start. That game was the debut of Helton, who was made the permanent coach later in the season but has gone 1-4 since. Utah is led by quarterback Troy Williams, an L.A.-area product who is coming off a 20-for-28 performance last weekend against San Jose State, finishing with 257 yards and a touchdown. The Utes didn't throw a touchdown pass until their third game last season, but already have four in 2016 - all to senior wide receiver Tim Patrick.

TV: 9 p.m. ET., FOX Sports 1.

LINE HISTORY: Utah opened this game favored by a point and a half, but bettors have moved that number all the way to Utes -3. The total opened at 46.5 and has yet to move off of that number. Check out the complete line history here.

INJURY REPORT:

USC - CB J. Plattenburg (probable Friday, concussion), TE T. Petite (probable Friday, thigh), DT M. Dorton (questionable Friday, hip), TE T. McNamara (questionable Friday, foot), C K. Rodgers (questionable Friday, hamstring), DT N. Jefferson (questionable Friday, shoulder), QB M. Fink (questionable Friday, ankle), LB Q. Powell (questionable friday, illness).

Utah- DB D. Hatfield (questionable Friday, leg), T S. Tevi (questionable Friday, back), DE K. Fitts (out Friday, foot).

WEATHER REPORT: It could be a messy night in Salt Lake City. There is a 100 perent of rain at kickoff with temperatures in the high 40's. There will also be a six to seven mile per hour wind blowing towards the northeast corner of the stadium.

WHAT SHARPS SAY: "USC returned 10 offensive starters this season. The only offensive starter they lost from last year's squad was QB Cody Kessler who threw for 3,536 yards with a 29/7 touchdown/interception ratio. It turns out that one lost starter was tough to replace as the Trojans passing game has struggled this season, averaging just 5.6 yards per pass (versus opponents that have allowed 6.6 ypp). USC will now be facing a strong Utah pass defense that has allowed just 4.9 yards per pass this season (versus opponent that average 5.6 ypp)."

WHAT BOOKS SAY: "We had Utah as a -1.5 point favorite earlier this week and it has been bet all the way to Utah -3.5 with over 70 percent of the action on Utah to cover."

ABOUT USC (1-2, 1-2 ATS, 1-2 O/U): Adoree' Jackson is one of the most versatile and entertaining players in Division I and may need to take over this game to get the Trojans back on track. He's a three-year starter at cornerback and also plays wide receiver and returns punt and kickoffs, putting him in the rare position of scoring touchdowns on a reception, interception return, punt and kickoff return during his career. Jackson, who limited Alabama sophomore wide receiver Calvin Ridley to two catches for nine yards in the season opener earlier this month, figures to draw the task of covering Patrick.

ABOUT UTAH (3-0, 1-2 ATS, 1-2 O/U): The Utes delivered 10 sacks against San Jose and look to get after Darnold against one of the most experienced offensive lines in the country. Hunter Dimick leads the way with three sacks for Utah and brings plenty of experience, starting 23 games in his college career. Kylie Fitts was expected to be a key part of the defensive line, but suffered a season-ending injury two weeks ago, increasing the role of Filipo Mokofisi, who move from defensive tackle to Fitts' former spot at defensive end last week and produced two sacks.

TRENDS:

* Home team is 5-0 ATS in their last five meetings.
* Utah is 1-6 ATS in its last seven games following a ATS win.
* Under is 9-3 in USC's last 12 road games.
* Under is 5-1 in Utah's last six home games.

CONSENSUS: Bettors are strongly behind the home team in this Pac-12 showdown, with 67 percetn of wagers backing Utah. As for the total, bettors are siding with over, with 59 percent of wagers on it.

Saturday Dunkel has updated.

Plenty of betting action and line moves on Saturday's college football slate

“There’s been money for Wisconsin, and I can’t blame them. Michigan State is coming off a monster win. It could be a letdown spot.”

Week 4 of the college football season features several games that have seen significant line moves, including some of Saturday’s bigger matchups. We talk about where the action is with Nick Bogdanovich, director of trading for William Hill US in Las Vegas.

No. 10 Wisconsin Badgers at No. 8 Michigan State Spartans – Open: -6.5; Move: -4

An early-season matchup of Big Ten unbeatens is among the noon Eastern kickoffs. Wisconsin (3-0 SU, 2-1 ATS) is coming off a very lackluster 23-17 home win over Georgia State as a massive 35.5-point favorite, but the Badgers opened the year with a big 16-14 upset of Louisiana State as a 12.5-point underdog at Lambeau Field.

Michigan State (2-0 SU, 1-1 ATS) bolted out to a 36-7 lead at Notre Dame last week and held on for a 36-28 upset as a 7.5-point ‘dog.

“This is one of the better games of the day, for sure, a huge Big Ten game,” Bogdanovich said Friday afternoon. “There’s been money for Wisconsin, and I can’t blame them. Michigan State is coming off a monster win. It could be a letdown spot.”

Bogdanovich noted the line movement stemmed mostly from sharp action on the Badgers.

No. 4 Louisville Cardinals at Marshall Thundering Herd – Open: +24.5; Move: +26.5

Quarterback Lamar Jackson and the Cardinals are all the rage after a 3-0 SU and ATS start in which they’re averaging 65 points per game. That includes last week’s shocking 63-20 beatdown of then No. 2 Florida State as a 2-point home chalk.

So even though Marshall (1-1 SU and ATS) has only two outright losses over the past two-plus seasons at home – one of them being last week’s blowout upset, 65-38 at the hands of 17.5-point ‘dog Akron – this game has a huge number that continues to rise.

“We’ll probably go even higher,” Bogdanovich said of the line on today’s 8 p.m. Eastern game. “Louisville is the darling right now, scoring 70 points every game. I wouldn’t be surprised if we go up to 28. That’s a big public game. It’ll be one of our bigger decisions tomorrow.”

No. 16 Florida Gators at No. 12 Tennessee Volunteers – Open: -6.5; Move: -5

Both these teams are 3-0 SU and 1-2 ATS heading into a key SEC East showdown at 3:30 p.m. Eastern. Tennessee held off Ohio last week 27-19, far short of cashing as 27-point home chalk, while Florida blanked North Texas 32-0, just short of the 32.5-point spread.

“It just looked like there should be some money for the ‘dog,” said Bogdanovich, noting it was definitely sharp money that lowered the number. “Florida hasn’t given up anything (14 points in three games), and Tennessee has been overpriced. It’s not a shock to see that line come down.”

Syracuse Orange at Connecticut Huskies – Open: -3.5; Move: -5.5, -3.5

UConn (2-1 SU and ATS) has played a trio of tight games, edging Virginia last week 13-10 on a late field goal to push as a 3-point home fave. Conversely, Syracuse (1-2 SU and ATS) enters off back-to-back blowout losses, including 45-20 to South Florida catching 12.5 points at home last week.

Bogdanovich noted the line has bounced around a lot on this 1 p.m. Eastern matchup.

“We opened UConn -3.5, then went as high as 5.5, now we’re down to -3,” he said. “There’s been a double-move on that game, and I think there’s still some movement to come. I don’t know which side the wiseguys are on. But sometimes, there are multiple sharp people out there who end up on different sides.”

Mississippi State Bulldogs at Massachusetts Minutemen – Open: +23.5; Move: +21.5

The Bulldogs (1-2 SU and ATS) gave LSU all it could handle last week before losing 23-20 as a 13-point road pup. The Minutemen (1-2 SU, 2-1 ATS) nabbed their first win last week, 21-13 getting 1 point at home against Florida International, and bettors seem to like UMass in the 3:30 p.m. Eastern kickoff.

“There has been money on the ‘dog,” Bogdanovich said. “Some sharp group likes the ‘dog in that one.”

No. 9 Washington Huskies at Arizona Wildcats – Open: +11; Move: +14

Washington (3-0 SU, 2-1 ATS) has posted three blowout victories, albeit not against quality competition, while Arizona (2-1 SU, 0-3 ATS) is dealing with quarterback injuries. Starter Anu Solomon suffered a knee injury in a Week 1 loss at BYU and didn’t start as the Wildcats won the past two weeks behind Brandon Dawkins, including Saturday’s 47-28 win over Hawaii laying 23.5 points at home.

“Arizona’s got a quarterback situation, so a lot of that movement had to do with information,” Bogdanovich said of 10:30 p.m. Eastern kickoff. “They’re doing a lot of two-stepping down there.”

Other Saturday games seeing significant line movement, based on odds from Wynn Las Vegas, which posts college lines each Sunday, earlier than most Las Vegas books:

• Virginia Tech opened as 9.5-point chalk hosting East Carolina and is now up to 12.5 points.
• No. 5 Michigan went as high as a 19-point home favorite vs. Penn State, after opening at 15.5. The Wolverines are now at -18.
• West Virginia has moved from a 3.5- to a 7-point fave at home against Brigham Young.
• No. 13 Texas A&M opened as a 3-point home favorite and has been bet up to 6 against No. 18 Arkansas.
• Western Michigan is now a 7-point home chalk against Georgia Southern, after opening at -4.
• Nebraska was installed as a 6.5-point fave at Northwestern and is now up to 8.5.

Saturday's NCAAF Top 25 betting cheat sheet and odds: Week 4

Stanford hit the betting board as 3-point road favorites for its game Saturday night vs UCLA and the line has not budged all week.

We're on to Week 4 of the college football season and the full slate of games can be tough to navigate for bettors. So we bring you our Top 25 betting cheat sheet to handicap the best games of the day.

Kent State Golden Flashes at No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide (-44, 50)

* The Golden Flashes are allowing 320 yards per game and have two highly productive defensive players in senior safety Nate Holley and senior defensive end Terence Waugh. Holley (47 tackles) ranks second in the nation with 15.7 stops per contest while Waugh has eight tackles for loss and ranks second in the nation with five sacks. Redshirt freshman quarterback Mylik Mitchell has passed for 353 yards and five touchdowns against one interception while freshman Justin Rankin leads the squad with 178 rushing yards.

* Freshman quarterback Jalen Hurts proved he was ready for the big stage with 304 yards of total offense (158 passing, 146 rushing) while rallying the Crimson Tide from a 21-point deficit versus Ole Miss. Hurts has thrown four touchdown passes against one interception while receiving offensive support from sophomore running back Damien Harris (327 yards) and sophomore receiver Calvin Ridley (19 catches for 219 yards). Senior defensive end Jonathan Allen has a team-best three sacks (and 21 for his career) and returned an interception 75 yards for a touchdown against Ole Miss, while senior safety Eddie Jackson (nine career interceptions) and senior linebacker Reuben Foster (team-high 22 tackles) are also playing superbly.

LINE HISTORY: Alabama opened this one as big home favorites at -43 and they have been bet even higher - currently sitting at -44. The total opened at 52 and has come down a couple of points throughout the week to its current number of 50. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Golden Flashes are 1-6 ATS vs. a team with a winning record.
* Crimson Tide are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 home games.
* Under is 8-1-1 in Golden Flashes last 10 games after allowing less than 20 points in their previous game.
* Under is 4-1 in Crimson Tide last 5 games following a ATS loss.

No. 11 Georgia Bulldogs at No. 21 Mississippi Rebels (-7, 62)

* The Bulldogs were torched for 376 passing yards last week and face another high-powered passing offense this week, but jump-starting a struggling running game is just as important heading into Saturday. Nick Chubb ranks 13th nationally at 121.7 yards per game but only rushed for 63 yards against Missouri. Eason completed 29-of-55 passes and fired three touchdowns, the most attempts by a Georgia quarterback in 16 years, and receiver Isaiah McKenzie – who caught the game winner – leads the Bulldogs with 18 catches for 305 yards and four scores.

* Quarterback Chip Kelly has plenty of targets, as seven players have caught a touchdown pass through three games and Engram leads the team with 20 receptions and 302 receiving yards. While Kelly has averaged 318 passing yards per contest and threw for a career-high 421 last week, he also has six turnovers. Junior defensive end Marquis Haynes recorded his 19th career sack against Alabama, but the Rebels are 104th nationally in third-down defense and have surrendered 72 first downs in three games.

LINE HISTORY: The line for this one opened with Ole Miss as 7.5-point favorites. The line came down a little bit throughout the week, hitting its lowest number of -6.5 on Thursday morning. However, by Thursday evening the line returned to the key number of -7. The total hit the board at 60.5 and steadily increased until settling at the current number of 62. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Bulldogs are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 road games.
* Rebels are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games after allowing more than 40 points in their previous game.
* Under is 9-1 in Bulldogs last 10 games overall.
* Under is 7-0 in Rebels last 7 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.

No. 25 Iowa Hawkeyes at Rutgers Scarlet Knights (+13.5, 56.5)

* Beathard (seven TD passes, one interception) struggled with a shoulder injury last week after getting hit hard several times, but is expected to healthy enough to try and improve on his 15-3 record as a starter. Running backs LeShun Daniels Jr. and New Jersey native Akrum Wadley, who have both scored three times on the ground, hope to rebound after a rough week and receiver Matt VandeBerg (15 catches, 267 yards, three TDs) looks to continue a strong start. Coach Kirk Ferentz told reporters the defense must improve after surrendering 239 rushing yards last week.

* Laviano has thrown for four touchdowns and been intercepted just once in the last two games and has produced 457 yards through the air overall. Grant is averaging 9.5 yards per carry with three scores and junior running back Robert Martin boasts a team-high 252 yards rushing – 169 in the 37-28 win over New Mexico last week. Grant also has 15 receptions to lead the team while sophomore Jawuan Harris is making an impact with 140 yards on five catches and two touchdowns for an offense that totaled 89 points the last two games.

LINE HISTORY: The Iowa Hawkeyes opened the betting week as 14-point road dogs. As the week went on their number dropped - getting as low as 12.5 at one point - but eventually came back up to settle at 13.5. The total opened at 55.5 and came up a full point to the current number of 56.5. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Hawkeyes are 14-3 ATS in their last 17 road games.
* Scarlet Knights are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 conference games.
* Over is 6-1 in Hawkeyes last 7 games after accumulating less than 100 yards rushing in their previous game.
* Over is 8-2 in Scarlet Knights last 10 games after allowing more than 450 total yards in their previous game.

No. 1 Wisconsin Badgers at No. 8 Michigan State Spartans (-4, 42)

* Wisconsin is unbeaten and averaging more than 30 points, but the Badgers are still very concerned about their play in the red zone this season. Chryst’s squad is 91st in the nation in touchdowns scored per red-zone trip at 53.3 percent (8-for-15), so the head coach was understandably perturbed when asked about it in the week before the matchup with the Spartans. Last year, the team scored a touchdown on 64.8 percent of its trips into the red zone, a percentage the Badgers will need to get much closer to if they hope to contend in the Big Ten West.

* A big question for Michigan State entering the season was the play at quarterback, with Tyler O’Connor taking the reins of the defending league champion’s offense. But two games in, and O’Connor has shown poise, even on the road in front of a raucous crowd in South Bend, Ind., and his numbers have been solid (431 yards, five TDs, two interceptions). With the Spartans’ running game getting in gear and O’Connor having targets like R.J. Shelton and emerging freshman Donnie Corley to throw to, the quarterback could end up being one of coach Mark Dantonio’s smallest worries going forward.

LINE HISTORY: Michigan State opened the betting week as 6-point favorites for their big matchup with Wisconsin. The betting public has been pushing the Badgers and by Friday afternoon has taken the line all of the way down to -4. The total opened at 43.5 and has dropped down to 42. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Badgers are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games overall.
* Spartans are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games in September.
* Under is 5-1 in Badgers last 6 vs. a team with a winning record.
* Over is 9-2 in the last 11 meetings.

No. 14 Florida State Seminoles at South Florida Bulls (+5, 61)

* Junior running back Dalvin Cook came into the season as a Heisman Trophy candidate, but has not been as dominant as expected with 228 yards rushing in three games. Freshman quarterback Deondre Francois has thrown for 782 yards and six scores in the early going and has solid veteran receiving threats in Travis Rudolph (15 catches, 219 yards, three TDs) and Jesus “Bobo” Wilson (14, 186). The underachieving defense is without one of its top performers as safety Derwin James is lost for five to seven weeks after knee surgery.

* The Bulls showed character last week by digging out of an early 17-0 hole with a big day from Adams, who ran for two scores and caught a touchdown pass. Flowers has been outstanding the last two weeks while completing 33-for-57 passes for five TDs and no interceptions, and has run for 150 yards in three games. Mack returned last week after missing a game with concussion symptoms to rush for 115 yards with a pair of touchdowns, and leads a ground attack averaging 247 yards (5.9 per attempt) with 10 total TDs from four different players.

LINE HISTORY: Florida State opened the betting week as 6-point road favorites against their in-state rivals from South Florida. The point spread was quickly bumped up to 7 but money flowed in fast on the home dogs, forcing the spread down to its current number of 5. The total opened at 61 and hasn't moved all week. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Seminoles are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games following a straight up loss of more than 20 points.
* Bulls are 7-1-1 ATS in their last 9 home games.
* Under is 5-1 in Seminoles last 6 road games.
* Over is 5-0 in Bulls last 5 home games.

No. 16 Florida Gators at No. 12 Tennessee Volunteers (-6.5, 43)

* Loaded with talent and depth, Florida leads the nation in fewest points allowed (4.7 per game), total defense (129.7 yards) and is second in rushing defense (38.3 yards). Led by linemen Caleb Brantley and Jordan Sherit, linebackers Alex Anzalone and Jarrad Davis and a secondary that includes preseason All-American Teez Tabor, the Gators set a school record by holding North Texas to 53 yards of total offense as they tuned up for the Vols. Florida had four running backs - Jordan Scarlett, Mark Thompson, Lamical Perine and Jordan Cronkrite - score against North Texas, and with the change at quarterback, coach Jim McElwain will likely lean on the ground game, which produced 255 yards against the Mean Green and is averaging 202 yards.

* The Vols are just 101st nationally in total offense (351 yards per game) but led by the elusive Dobbs, who rushed for 136 yards against the Gators last season, they are capable of quick-strike touchdowns -- their scoring drives have averaged only 2 minutes. Junior running back Jalen Hurd, who rushed for 106 yards in Tennessee's 45-24 comeback win over Virginia Tech, and junior wide receiver Josh Malone (21.8 yards per catch) are the other offensive playmakers. The defense, which recovered five fumbles including a school-record three by free safety Micah Abernathy to key the rally against the Hokies, will be without star cornerback Cameron Sutton (broken ankle), but standout linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin (shoulder ailment) is excepted to be available.

LINE HISTORY: Everybody's favorite college football team right now seems to be the Tennessee Vols. They opened as 8-point home favorites over Florida but the point spread took a sharp turn down to -6.5 at the beginning of the week and hasn't come back up as of Friday afternoon. The total opened at 43.5 and was dropped a half point to 43. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Gators are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 road games.
* Volunteers are 5-0 ATS vs. a team with a winning record.
* Under is 7-1 in Gators last 8 games on grass.
* Over is 5-1 in the last 6 meetings.

Penn State Nittany Lions at No. 5 Michigan Wolverines (-18.5, 56.5)

* Super sophomore Saquon Barkley rushed for 68 yards and a score in the victory against Temple to give him six touchdowns in his first three games, which is the most for a Penn State player since 1971. Nyeem Wartman-Wright will be sidelined for the remainder of the season after suffering a knee injury in the first quarter against Temple, leaving an already-thin linebacking corps without many viable options. Jason Cabinda hasn't played since suffering a thumb injury in Week 1 while Brandon Bell missed the win over Temple with a lower-body injury and both linebackers could miss the trip to Ann Arbor.

* Jabrill Peppers was named the co-Walter Camp FBS Player of the Week after registering 204 all-purpose yards, including a 54-yard punt return touchdown, nine tackles and a sack in the win against Colorado. Wilton Speight struggled in his first real test of the season as he was limited to 229 yards on 16-of-30 passing and failed to complete any deep throws against a talented Buffaloes secondary. Harbaugh is "hopeful" that All-American cornerback Jourdan Lewis is ready to return after missing the last three games with a muscle strain while defensive end Taco Charlton could also be back after suffering an ankle injury in the season opener.

LINE HISTORY: Michigan opened as 16.5-point favorites and the spread skyrocketed up as high as -19 early in the week. Since that initial boost, the line has simply waivered between -19 and -18.5 (which is the current number as of Friday afternoon). The total hit the betting board at 58.5 and, after an initial bump to 60, has steadily fallen to the current number of 56.5. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Nittany Lions are 3-13-2 ATS in their last 18 road games.
* Wolverines are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games following a ATS loss.
* Over is 6-1 in Nittany Lions last 7 games overall.
* Over is 11-0 in Wolverines last 11 games overall.

No. 17 Louisiana State Tigers at Auburn Tigers (+3.5, 44)

* Fournette ran for 228 yards and three touchdowns in a 45-21 win against Auburn last season and is coming off a 147-yard, two-touchdown effort versus Mississippi State. Etling, who was making his first start for LSU after transferring from Purdue, said, "I continue to get more and more comfortable with the first team guys" after going 19-of-30 for 215 yards. Etling hopes to have his offensive line intact this week after four linemen limped off against the Bulldogs, forcing a variety of movement across the unit, including Ethan Pocic moving from center to tackle.

* The Tigers' lone win is a rout over Arkansas State, although they lost by six against Clemson in their opener and fell in a hard-fought contest against Texas A&M last weekend. Sean White managed the game for Auburn while his teammates combined for 238 rushing yards on 46 carries. Kamryn Pettway has run for 152 and 123 yards in the last two weeks, respectively, earning high praise from wideout Ryan Davis, who called him "the perfect back that you would want."

LINE HISTORY: LSU opened the betting week as 2.5-point favorites over their fellow SEC West Tigers and throughout the week the line has been bumped up a couple of times to sit at it's current position of 3.5. The total opened at 45, went up as high as 46, and has come back down late in the week to the current total of 44. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* LSU Tigers are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games in September.
* Auburn Tigers are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 games following a double-digit loss at home.
* Under is 7-1 in LSU's last 8 games overall.
* Under is 9-2-1 in Auburn's last 12 home games.

No. 1 Houston Cougars at Texas State Bobcats (+34.5, 63)

* Ward (657 passing yards and three TDS, 74 rushing yards and two TDs) threw for 326 yards and accounted for three scores against Cincinnati after missing the week before with a shoulder injury. Linell Bonner (15 catches, 228 yards) and Steven Dunbar (11 catches, 150 yards) lead the receiving corps but haven't found the end zone. Senior linebacker Steven Taylor leads the country with 5.5 sacks and had one of the Cougars' two fourth-quarter interceptions returned for a score last week.

* Senior quarterback Tyler Jones (501 yards, four TDs, three interceptions) is third in school history in career TD passes (48) and total offense (8,082). Running back Stedman Mayberry has nine catches for 60 yards, joining Eric Luna (11 catches, 99 yards, TD) and Elijah King (eight catches, 129 yards, two TDs) as Jones' favorite targets. Junior-college transfer Gabe Loyd has 18 tackles after recording eight tackles at Arkansas.

LINE HISTORY: The heavily hyped Houston Cougers opened as 34.5-point road favorites for this matchup with the Texas State Bobcats and the line hasn't moved all week. The total opened at 63 and has taken a sharp jump up to 65. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Cougars are 22-4-1 ATS in their last 27 road games.
* Bobcats are 0-4 ATS vs. a team with a winning record.
* Under is 7-1 in Cougars last 8 games following a straight up win.
* Under is 4-0 in Bobcats last 4 home games.

Oklahoma State Cowboys at No. 15 Baylor Bears (-9, 73.5)

* The Cowboys bounced back from the Central Michigan fiasco -- the officials incorrectly gave the Chippewas an extra play after the Cowboys had seemingly won the game with a pass out of bounds to run out the clock that was ruled intentional grounding -- to defeat Pittsburgh 45-38 last Saturday. Quarterback Mason Rudolph led the way, completing 26-of-46 passes for a school-record 540 yards and two touchdowns while wide receiver James Washington caught nine passes for 296 yards and two touchdowns, including a 91-yarder on the very first play of the game. Linebacker Jordan Burton leads the defense with 20 tackles while defensive ends Cole Walterscheid and Jarrell Owens top the Cowboys with two sacks each and corner Ramon Richards has a team-best two interceptions.

* The Bears have failed to score in the first quarter of each of their last two games, a minor catastrophe for a team that has led the NCAA in total and scoring offense each of the last three years. Quarterback Seth Russell, who sat out the end of the 2015 season with a neck injury, has been inconsistent at times but still has completed 62-of-105 passes for 761 yards, nine touchdowns and three interceptions while three running backs -- Shock Linwood, Terence Williams and JaMycal Hasty -- are averaging at least 71 yards rushing per game. Acting head coach Jim Grobe switched to a 3-4 defense this season, and it has paid off with impressive results so far as Baylor is allowing only 249.3 yards per game which ranks seventh nationally.

LINE HISTORY: The home team Baylor Bears opened as 10-point favorites at the beginning of the betting week and by Wednesday the spread was all of the way down to -7.5. Since hitting that low point of -7.5 the faves have rebounded slightly to settle at the current number of -9. The total hit the board at 74.5, peaked at 76 on Wednesday, and dropped way down to 73.5 during the second half of the week. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Cowboys are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games in September.
* Bears are 0-6 ATS in their last 6 games following a straight up win.
* Over is 6-0 in Cowboys last 6 conference games.
* Under is 7-1 in Bears last 8 games after accumulating more than 200 yards rushing in their previous game.

No. 20 Nebraska Cornhuskers at Northwestern Wildcats (+9, 47.5)

* Senior quarterback Tommy Armstrong Jr. embodied the resolve of the team last weekend, scoring the game-winning 34-yard touchdown with 2 1/2 minutes remaining despite fighting through severe leg cramps for most of the second half. Jordan Westerkamp, whose 47-yard Hail Mary catch as time expired in 2013 gave the Cornhuskers a 27-24 win over Northwestern, is coming off the first two multiple-touchdown games of his career and ranks third in school history with a catch in 29 consecutive games. Nebraska has yielded only two TD passes through three games after surrendering 25 in 13 contests a season ago and ended the Ducks' FBS record-setting streak of 82 straight games with at least one passing score.

* Sophomore quarterback Clayton Thorson, who ran for a personal-best 126 yards in last year's 30-28 victory, erupted for a career-high 320 passing yards against Duke and ranks second in the Big Ten in passing yards (707) but is completing only 49 percent of his passes. Although junior running back Justin Jackson is tied for second in the conference with 260 yards on the ground, five other Wildcats have combined to run for only 35, leading to a conference-worst 98.3-yard average. Given those struggles, the Cornhuskers' primary focus on defense figures to be senior receiver Austin Carr, who leads the Big Ten with 283 yards receiving and is tied for first with 18 catches.

LINE HISTORY: Nebraska opened as 6.5-point road favorites at the beginning of the week and by Friday afternoon that line had been bet all of the way up to its current number of 9. The total opened at 48 and dropped slightly to 47.5 by the end of the week. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Cornhuskers are 9-1 ATS in their last 10 games on grass.
* Wildcats are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 conference games.
* Over is 5-0 in Cornhuskers last 5 games on grass.
* Under is 6-1 in Wildcats last 7 games overall.

No. 4 Louisville Cardinals at Marshall Thundering Herd (+27, 74.5)

* Jackson, who is only the second player in school history to score four rushing touchdowns in consecutive games (Fred Koster, 1926), ranks second in the nation in rushing (464 yards) and spearheads an offense that has run for at least 250 yards in five straight contests for the first time in school history. Junior running back Brandon Radcliff is averaging 11 yards per carry - better than Jackson's 9.5 - and a significant part of the reason why the Cardinals lead FBS in rushing touchdowns (16), yards per carry (8.2) and most runs of at least 20 yards (14). Louisville is tied for fifth in the country with 13 sacks and has collected at least four sacks in four consecutive contests for the first time since 2000.

* Despite piling up 560 yards, 31 first downs and holding a 13 1/2-minute advantage in time of possession, the Thundering Herd lost convincingly against Akron after allowing three return touchdowns (fumble, interception, blocked punt), committing four turnovers and drawing 17 penalties for 180 yards. Sophomore quarterback Chase Litton ranks sixth in FBS with 361 passing yards per game, keying an attack that sits 12th in the country in total offense (545 yards) and sixth in scoring (50 points per game). Tight end Ryan Yurachek added five catches for 65 scoreless yards in the loss to the Zips, ending the nation's longest active streak of games with at least one touchdown at six.

LINE HISTORY: Louisville opened as 24-point road favorites and the line quickly spiked to 26. From there the point spread wobbled between 24.5 and 27 all week long and currently sits at 27 on Friday afternoon. The total opened at 74.5 and took a slight drop to 73.5 in the middle of the week before settling back to the opening number on Thursday morning. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Cardinals are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 games in September.
* Thundering Herd are 15-2-1 ATS in their last 18 home games vs. a team with a winning road record.
* Over is 7-1 in Cardinals last 8 games overall.
* Under is 7-1 in Thundering Herd last 8 games following a straight up loss of more than 20 points.

No. 6 Stanford Cardinal at UCLA Bruins (+3, 46.5)

* Senior quarterback Ryan Burns has completed nearly 70 percent of his passes for the Cardinal, who are seeking their ninth straight win over the Bruins. Stanford’s running attack features McCaffrey along with backup Bryce Love, who gained 51 yards on 11 carries in his season debut last week. Safety Zach Hoffpauir has recorded a team-high 11 tackles to lead the defense, which allowed Rosen to throw for 325 yards and three touchdowns last October but could receive a boost Saturday with the anticipated return of Harrison Phillips after the nose tackle missed last week’s game due to a knee injury.

* Rosen posted his eighth career 300-yard passing performance last Saturday against BYU while completing passes to 12 different receivers - including Darren Andrews, who led the Bruins with four catches for 91 yards and a touchdown. UCLA’s deep collection of running backs includes Nate Starks, Bolu Olorunfunmi and leading rusher Soso Jamabo, who did not suit up for last week’s game for an undisclosed reason but is expected to play Saturday. The defense matches up well against the Cardinal up front, with Eddie Vanderdoes and Eli Ankou along with linebacker Jayon Brown, who ranks among the league’s leading tacklers at 7.7 per game.

LINE HISTORY: Stanford hit the betting board as 3-point road favorites and the line has not budged all week. The total opened at 47.5 and dropped a full point to 46.5 on Tuesday morning. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Cardinal are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 road games.
* Bruins are 0-7 ATS in their last 7 games on grass.
* Over is 9-2 in Cardinal last 11 vs. a team with a winning record.
* Cardinal are 7-1 ATS in their last 8 meetings.

No. 18 Arkansas Razorbacks vs No. 13 Texas A&M Aggies (-6, 49)

* First-year starter Austin Allen has quickly established himself as a solid quarterback for the Razorbacks and passed for a career-high 241 yards and a pair of touchdowns against Texas State after totaling four scores (three passing, one rushing) the previous week. Allen is getting plenty of support from the ground game and sophomore Rawleigh Williams III, who has rushed for 354 yards and three touchdowns. Defensive ends Jeremiah Ledbetter and Deatrich Wise Jr. recorded at least a half-sack in each of the first three games to lead the defensive line.

* The Aggies are breaking in their own first-year starter at quarterback in Oklahoma transfer Trevor Knight, who has yet to complete 60 percent of his passes in a game and went 20-of-40 at Auburn without an interception. Knight is also helping out with 151 yards and three TDs on the ground but the star of the rushing attack is freshman Trayveon Williams, who needed only eight attempts to churn out 127 yards and a TD last week. Star defensive lineman Myles Garrett got off to a bit of a slow start in the first two games but recorded a pair of sacks at Auburn to lead the defense.

LINE HISTORY: The Aggies opened as 6-point favorites and the line has been up and down all week - ranging between -6.5 and -5. As of Friday afternoon the line had settled back to the opening number of -6. The total kicked off the betting week at 50.5 and currently sits at 49. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Razorbacks are 6-1 ATS in their last 7 conference games.
* Aggies are 1-5 ATS vs. a team with a winning record.
* Under is 5-1 in Razorbacks last 6 games in September.
* Under is 7-0-1 in Aggies last 8 games overall.

No. 9 Washington Huskies at Arizona Wildcats (+14, 58)

* Sophomore quarterback Jake Browning has passed for 744 yards and 12 touchdowns against one interception and his nine scoring passes over the past two games are the most in back-to-back games in school history. The Huskies are still waiting for sophomore tailback Myles Gaskin (217 yards, two touchdowns) to increase his production after last season's 1,302-yard campaign, while big-play junior receiver John Ross has 13 receptions for 167 yards and four touchdowns. Washington has been flirting with using standout junior safety Budda Baker on offense but he remains the top player on a defense that is receiving strong play from junior linebacker Azeem Victor (team-best 21 tackles) and sophomore tackle Greg Gaines (team-best 4 1/2 tackles for loss).

* Sophomore Brandon Dawkins, who has passed for two touchdowns and rushed for five, will make his third consecutive start if Solomon isn't cleared to return. The Wildcats are also short-handed at running back with junior Nick Wilson (257 yards, three touchdowns) highly questionable due to an ankle injury, and that would leave freshman J.J. Taylor (168 yards versus Hawaii last Saturday) and junior kick returner Tyrell Johnson - being converted from slot receiver to tailback this week - as the main ball carriers. Standout junior linebacker DeAndre' Miller (four tackles for loss) is questionable with a foot injury while sophomore free safety Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles and senior linebacker Paul Magloire Jr. (team-best 20 tackles) are also playing well.

LINE HISTORY: The much-hyped Washington Huskies opened this matchup as 11-point road favorites and the public quickly jumped all over the No. 9 team in the nation. The point spread moved from 11 to 12 to 13 to the current number of 14. The total hit the board at 58 and hasn't moved as of Friday afternoon. View complete line history here.

TRENDS:

* Huskies are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
* Wildcats are 0-5 ATS in their last 5 games overall.
* Over is 6-1 in Huskies last 7 games after scoring more than 40 points in their previous game.
* Home team is 7-1 ATS in their last 8 meetings.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Saturday's NCAAF Game of the Day: Oklahoma State at Baylor
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Baylor quarterback Seth Russell has been inconsistent at times but still has completed 62-of-105 passes for 761 yards, nine touchdowns and three interceptions.

Baylor will be looking to start 4-0 for a program-record fourth straight year when it hosts Oklahoma State in the Big 12 opener for both teams Saturday night. The 15th-ranked Bears will also be looking to extend a 11-game September winning streak which dates back to 2012.

Baylor is the lone remaining undefeated team in the Big 12 thanks in part to what most would argue was the conference's softest non-conference schedule starting with a 55-7 win over Northwestern State, a FCS school, followed by back-to-back blowouts over SMU (40-13) and Rice (38-10). Now the Bears host an Oklahoma State squad that is one controversial Hail Mary throw at the end of a 30-27 loss to Central Michigan away from entering the game undefeated itself. "The best measuring stick is going to be on the field," Baylor wide receiver Lynx Hawthorne told the Waco Tribune when the topic of the Bears' weak non-conference schedule was brought up. "We'll hopefully come together and put some points on the board and get our first conference win."

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

LINE HISTORY: The home team Baylor Bears opened as 10-point favorites at the beginning of the betting week and by Wednesday the spread was all of the way down to -7.5. Since hitting that low point of -7.5 the faves have rebounded slightly to settle at the current number of -9. The total hit the board at 74.5, peaked at 76 on Wednesday, and dropped way down to 73.5 during the second half of the week. Check out the complete line history here.

ABOUT BAYLOR (3-0, 0-3 ATS, 0-3 O/U): The Bears have failed to score in the first quarter of each of their last two games, a minor catastrophe for a team that has led the NCAA in total and scoring offense each of the last three years. Quarterback Seth Russell, who sat out the end of the 2015 season with a neck injury, has been inconsistent at times but still has completed 62-of-105 passes for 761 yards, nine touchdowns and three interceptions while three running backs -- Shock Linwood, Terence Williams and JaMycal Hasty -- are averaging at least 71 yards rushing per game.

Armadillo: Sunday's List of 13: Wrapping up a sports Saturday

13) Florida State 55, South Florida 35– FSU’s star RB Dalvin Cook carried the pigskin 28 times for 267 yards, as Jimbo Fisher showed how little faith he has in his defense by continually feeding the ball to a banged-up Cook despite having a three-TD lead in the 4th quarter.

USF justified Fisher’s lack of faith in his defense by running for 290 yards.

12) Auburn 18, LSU 13– LSU appeared to score the game-winning TD as time expired; replay reviews apparently showed that time had expired before LSU got the play off. Very chaotic last 0:30. Auburn wins without scoring a TD.

Dalvin Cook had 28 carries for 267 yards for Florida State; Leonard Fournette had 16 carries for 101 yards for LSU in this one– why only 16 carries in such a close game?

Cam Cameron makes $1.2M a year coordinating the LSU offense, but his offense isn’t good- they didn’t score in second half last week, scored one TD in this game. In the immortal words of former NBA star Micheal Ray Richardson, “….the ship be sinking”.

11) Tennessee 38, Florida 28– Gators led 21-3 at halftime; Twitter was calling for the coach’s scalp, then they played the second half. Vols ended an 11-game losing streak to Florida.

10) Duke 38, Notre Dame 35– 21-point underdog Duke put up 498 total yards; 208 rushing, 290 passing and the Irish are 1-3. Scapegoat for all this will be the defensive coordinator; either that or Brian Kelly will jump to the NFL next year.

9) North Carolina 37, Pittsburgh 36– Panthers scored 74 points in last two games, lost ’em both- they led 36-23 with 6:00 left; UNC scored winning TD with 0:02 left. Pitt ran ball for 281 yards; Tar Heels threw it for 453.

8) Colorado 41, Oregon 38– Huge win for Mike MacIntyre’s Buffs, who blew a 33-17 lead, then won game in 4th quarter behind backup QB Montez, who threw for 333 yards. Total yardage: 593-508, Colorado.

7) Wisconsin 30, Michigan State 6– Spartans got all fat ‘n happy after beating Notre Dame last week, then turned ball over four times here and got waxed by a Badger squad that hadn’t won in East Lansing since 2002.

6) Wake Forest 33, Indiana 28– Deacons are 4-0……..over last three years, they were 10-26. Wake Forest hasn’t been to a bowl game since 2011; would be ironic if they played Baylor and former coach Jim Grobe in a bowl game this season.

5) Tulsa 48, Fresno State 41 OT– With 10:16 left in first half, Fresno State led this game 31-0. They lost.

Tulsa ran 100 plays for 617 yards; football is the only sport I know of where the college version is a longer game than the pro version.

4) Purdue 24, Nevada 14– Not only did Boilers win, two QBs who jumped ship and transferred out of West Lafayette lost their games (Florida, LSU). in especially painful fashion.

Mountain West teams are getting hammered this year; they’re now 2-11 vs spread as a non-conference road underdog. Not good.

3) Utah 31, USC 27– When was last time USC/Notre Dame had combined record of 2-6? Utah won this game Friday night with TD in last minute, on drive led by a QB from LA who grew up rooting for the Trojans, but they never tried to recruit him.

2) Stanford 22, UCLA 13– One of worst gambling beats of all-time; Cardinal (-3.5) scored nine points in last 0:24, beating UCLA, the spread in one fell swoop– Cardinal has now beaten UCLA nine games in a row.

I’m assuming David Shaw can be a head coach in the NFL, if he wants to be; would be curious to know if he is interested.

Sidelight: it is great fun to be in a Las Vegas casino when a team covers the way Stanford did (defensive TD on last play). People who were cursing 10 seconds before now declare themselves to be brilliant, while people who were grinning ear to ear start cursing the QB laying on his back.

1– Giants 9, Padres 6 (10)– NL Wild Card is Mets/Giants tied, with St Louis a half-game back. Cardinals have one extra game to play. Giants led this game 6-0 with Bumgarner on mound, blew the lead, then won it in extra innings.

Like we said yesterday, if this were to end in a 3-way tie (for two spots), there is chaos as far as the process to decide who doesn’t get in– its a weird system that you know they don’t want to use.

I think it is like this: Teams A-B play one day, the winner gets in, the loser then plays at Team C the next night, in effect giving Team B two chances to win one game and make it. Winner of the second game would then play one game at the winner of the first game to advance. Oy.

NCAAF opening line report: Week 5 features some of the best matchups of the year

Louisville is the darling of the college football world right now, averaging a whopping 63.5 points per game, including an absolute destruction of then No. 2 Florida State, 62-20 in Week 3.

A huge clash in the Atlantic Coast Conference highlights Week 5 of the college football season. We talk about the opening lines on four big games this week with John Lester, senior lines manager for offshore sportsbook Bookmaker.eu.

No. 4 Louisville Cardinals at No. 3 Clemson Tigers (-2)

Louisville is the darling of the college football world right now, averaging a whopping 63.5 points per game, including an absolute destruction of then No. 2 Florida State, 62-20 in Week 3 as a 2-point home favorite. On Saturday, the Cardinals (4-0 SU, 3-0-1 ATS) wiped out Marshall 59-28 to push as a massive 31-point chalk.

Clemson, which lost to Alabama in a thrilling national championship game last season, is also out of the gate 4-0 SU (2-2 ATS). The Tigers topped host Georgia Tech 26-7 laying 10.5 points on Thursday night, meaning they’ll have a little extra rest for this Saturday night prime-time matchup. Last year, Clemson edged Louisville 20-17 as a 5-point road fave.

“What a great matchup for the books and the bettors,” Lester said. “Perception is certainly with Lamar Jackson and Louisville these days, but these two teams are neck-and-neck in our power ratings. We made Clemson a slight favorite, and we’ll see where the action takes it.”

No. 6 Stanford Cardinal at No. 9 Washington Huskies (-3)

Like the ACC, the Pac-12 has its own big matchup of undefeateds, though both Stanford and Washington barely remained in that category in Week 4.

The Cardinal trailed 13-9 in the waning minutes at UCLA on Saturday night, then got a touchdown with just 24 seconds left to go up 16-13 as 3-point favorites. They then got a scoop-and-score fumble as time ran out for a 22-13 win and arguably one of the all-time bad beats for Bruins bettors.

Washington (4-0 SU and ATS) was also pressed Saturday night, needing overtime to take out host Arizona 35-28 giving 16 points.

“Another matchup with two very evenly-matched teams,” Lester said. “Stanford has typically struggled defending these types of offenses, and the home-field edge the Huskies hold is also a significant factor when setting this line.”

No. 8 Wisconsin Badgers at No. 5 Michigan Wolverines (-10.5)

And the Big Ten has got a battle of unbeatens this week, too. Wisconsin (4-0 SU, 3-1 ATS) is in the midst of a wicked three-game stretch – at Michigan State this past Saturday, now Michigan, then a bye before hosting Ohio State. But the Badgers got it started strong with a 30-6 whipping of the Spartans as a 3.5-point road ‘dog.

Meanwhile, Michigan (4-0 SU, 3-1 ATS) has put up at least 45 points in all four of its games, including Saturday’s 49-10 rout of Penn State as a hefty 15.5-point home chalk. And the Wolverines will be healthy favorites this week, too.

“Wisconsin was impressive on the road last week, but going to the Big House is a whole new ballgame,” Lester said. “This is going to be a great gauge to see how good this Michigan team really is. We went fairly high on the line and won’t be surprised if some sharps see value with the Badgers.”

No. 11 Tennessee Volunteers at No. 20 Georgia Bulldogs (+3)

Tennessee had one of the more stirring comebacks of the season Saturday, climbing out of a 21-0 second-quarter hole against visiting Florida. The Vols (4-0 SU, 2-2 ATS) scored 38 unanswered points en route to a 38-28 win and cover as 4-point faves.

On the flip side, Georgia (3-1 ATS, 1-3 SU) comes in off a blowout loss, 45-14 at Mississippi getting 7 points Saturday.

“The Vols have been playing with fire all season, and now we’ll get to see them in their first road test,” Lester said, noting Tennessee needed overtime in its opener against Appalachian State and struggled with Ohio in Week 3. “Georgia hasn’t been overly impressive either. The public will look at this and scratch their heads, so we’re expecting a lot of square action on the road chalk.”
