It is very tempting to play the Jaguars outright on the Money Line here as an upset remains a likely possibility. The Jaguars cannot make a bowl game, but that doesn't mean that this team won't be fired up to play a team it has had success against at home. The Jaguars will enter this contest with a nothing-to-lose mentality, and teams like these are usually the most dangerous ones to go against. We'll take the points.

This is the first time this season that we have seen the Clones ranked. Generally speaking, this is not a good place for many teams to be in as we have seen several examples this season already of these clubs getting upset outright. This may be another one of those cases. Expect Baylor to throw the ball in heavy doses and do so often to keep Iowa State guessing and play outside of their comfort zone of stopping the run. An upset is not definitive, but it is certainly not of the question.

Mississippi State has a terrific defense, but Alabama will be looking to make another statement in this game. The Crimson Tide love a challenge, and they would love to hang a big number on the Bulldogs defense. If Alabama can beat LSU at Tiger Stadium by 29, they can do the same against Mississippi State at home.

There was a reason why many predicted Boise State to be a potential NY6 participant in the pre-season. This venue will serve as the perfect place for the Broncos to reinforce the affirmation and silence the critics. Ultimately, home field will be the decider in a Boise State "upset."

Wake Forest has been beaten pretty bad by the better teams it has faced this season, and the loss of Hartman will not help the cause. NC State continues to beat the teams it is supposed to as one of the top three programs in the ACC this season. Finley has been able to establish himself as one of the top quarterbacks in the conference.

Given just how bad the Demon Deacons have played on defense this season, the Wolfpack should be able to cover the 17 points at home with relative ease.

South Florida has been exposed as just an above average team in its last two outings to discount that impressive seven-game winning streak to start the year. It will have a hard time scoring enough points against the Bearcats to keep pace with the points its defense gives up.

I am sticking with Cincinnati covering the 12 points at home in this Saturday night’s matchup against the Bulls.

The Runnin' Rebels know they can hang with these Bulldogs, so the point spread and the win-loss records are thrown out the window here, especially given the fact they get this one at home. Fresno State will eventually pull away in the end but expect this outfit to hang around longer than many hope generating a cover in the process.

Most people thought that this game would decide the winner of the Pac-12 North, but both Washington and Stanford have struggled of late. The Huskies and Cardinal still have their sights set on catching Washington State, but the loser of this game will be eliminated. This should be a very tight game that could very well be decided on the final possession. Washington as a 9.5 point favorite just seems like too much for a struggling team.

The Alabama-LSU rivalry is one of the best in all of college athletics. These two teams have played in some very memorable games of late, with most of those being low-scoring affairs. Alabama is built differently this season, and they will try to outscore the Tigers on Saturday night. Look for LSU to keep this game close, but the Crimson Tide will prevail. Bet LSU +14.5 to cover in a loss to Alabama in this game.

This affair is not a clash of titans by any means and chances are it will be a very sloppy game with a lack of explosive plays. However, we have to like UTEP chances here as they are the hungrier of the two teams and we have to like that spot in a virtual pick-em scenario.

This is going to be another high scoring game with each team fielding a very porous defense. Whether it can top a total line set that high remains to be seen. Syracuse is on the move as the only other team in the ACC ranked nationally, and it has quite a bit of momentum on its side getting past NC State. Wake Forest is also coming off an upset, but it yet to play all that well against the tougher competition it has faced.

The Hilltoppers will throw the kitchen sink at Middle Tennessee State. The Senior Class on this team will want to take something away from 2018 to commemorate their efforts. Beating the team that they hate the most will serve as a suitable trinket. An upset is possible here.

This should be an excellent test for UCF in its bid to keep this extended winning streak alive. The Knights are one of the most complete teams in the nation, but Temple has the overall talent to keep this game closer than the current spread.

In the end, I have Central Florida getting the straight up win. However, I am taking the points and betting the Owls to cover on a generous opening spread given Milton’s questionable playing status.

When you compare the overall schedules of both these teams, New Mexico State has had a tougher road, yet they have one more win to their credit. Texas State did not have to play Utah State or Minnesota on the road. Instead, they opted for Texas Southern and a visit to Rutgers (the weakest team in the B1G by far) outside of their Sun Belt Conference schedule. This will be the difference maker in this one. We are getting the better team at a better price. Aggies pull the upset.

The Stanford Cardinal were supposed to contend for a spot in the College Football Playoffs this season, but the injury to Love has held them back. Washington State has burst onto the scene with the most explosive passing attack in all of college football. Stanford is tough to beat at home, but they don’t have enough offense to beat the Cougars.

Given the inconsistency that Southern California showed last week, let alone all season this is a team that cannot be trusted with this kind of lumber to spot here and now. Arizona State has rumbled with some big dogs already this season, and they even managed to knock one of them out in Tempe (Michigan State). Look for the Sun Devils to bring it’s A-game and at least keep this one close, if they don’t pull the upset.

This is one of the best rivalry games in college football, and this year’s chapter should be another classic. There will be plenty of future NFL players on the field in this game, and there will be heavy hitting going on. The winner of this game still has a shot at the College Football Playoffs, while the loser will miss out. Georgia should be able to hold off their rival at home in this game, but Florida will keep the game close.

These two offensive powers should be able to go up and down the field on one another all day long in Houston to tempt a play on the inflated total line. I do see quite a few points going up on the board, but I am staying away from that bet altogether.

This should actually be a very entertaining game that stays within a touchdown until the final gun so I will take the points on the road team with the Bulls covering ATS as underdogs.

Army is more or less a one-trick pony. They run the option and dare teams to stop them if they can. Given the fact the Red Hawks provided plenty of game film for EMU on how to do that, the Eagles are assuredly taking notes. This game not only has EMU written all over it but perhaps it will be an outright blowout.

Virginia Tech should win this game SU and cover the 3.5 points at home, but this team has failed to live up to expectations more than once this season. The Hokies had to play from behind to get past a Tar Heels’ squad that has just one SU win this season. Georgia Tech has been tough to figure out as well, but anytime you can effectively run the ball, you have a chance to win.

While I am not sure if the Yellow Jackets can win this game SU, the extra half point on a field goal spread makes them an attractive play ATS this Thursday night.
