There’s another week of college football betting action ahead, and here at Bankroll Sports, we’re dissecting some of the best NCAA football odds on the board in Week 7.

What we don’t have this week are a whole bunch of extreme lines one way or the other. Sure, teams like the Baylor Bears or the UCLA Bruins or the Texas A&M Aggies have high ‘totals’ in the 70s, and there are a few games like the one between the Miami Redhawks and the Massachusetts Minutemen which only feature a ‘total’ of 43, but the point spreads themselves aren’t as outrageous as you might think and be used to.

There isn’t a single team on the college football Week 7 lines that is favored by more than 28 points, and that’s showing that the games are getting closer and closer together. We do have to note that that 28-point favorite is on the road, and it happens to be the #1 team in the country. The Alabama Crimson Tide are giving 28 to the Kentucky Wildcats, which more or less assumes that the spread would be 35 or so if the game was being played in Tuscaloosa. That being said, Kentucky has got to be used to playing these games against these awesome teams, as in the last few weeks, it has had to contend with South Carolina, Louisville, and Florida, and now comes the biggest test of them all against the Crimson Tide, the two-time defending National Champions.

That said, we can bill this week as “Elimination Saturday,” as there are a lot of teams that are going to be playing for the National Championship lives. We know that most of these teams don’t have even remotely good chances of winning it all, but as we get closer and closer to the first BCS rankings being put out, teams are going to be jockeying for position in hopes of keeping their chances alive.

NCAA Football BetDSIThe first of those elimination games comes on Thursday when the Louisville Cardinals play host to the Rutgers Scarlet Knights. Without a single team ranked in the Top 25 in the land outside of them, the Cardinals know that they are in a lot of trouble when it comes to the BCS. Perfection is the only formula for success, and even that doesn’t guarantee anything with so many undefeated teams in front of them and coming up from behind them as well. This is at least a shot at playing against a decent team on national television, and Louisville is laying 19.

The Oklahoma Sooners are engaged in the Red River Rivalry this week against the Texas Longhorns, and this game is always one that is tough to handicap. The Sooners have beaten Head Coach Mack Brown four times by 30+ points, and there is a real chance that this could be another one of these games that is separated by a huge margin. Oklahoma is giving 13.5 points to the Longhorns, and we have a feeling if this game isn’t at least covered (and perhaps at least won), Brown’s days in burnt orange are numbered. However, if OU loses this game, the Big XII probably wouldn’t have a National Championship contender left, especially if the Baylor Bears happened to lose as 17-point favorites on the road to the Kansas State Wildcats. Remember last year, though? Baylor was a 12-point underdog at home against a Kansas State team that was just a couple wins away from playing for all the marbles. The Bears won that game and won it huge, and you know that Head Coach Bill Snyder would love to exact some revenge against Baylor by taking an eye for an eye this year.

The best teams in the Pac-12 are going to be in for fights this week as well. The Stanford Cardinal and the Oregon Ducks are both on the road, and they both have games that they very well could lose. Stanford is taking on the Utah Utes, who have had a knack of sticking around in these big games this year. The Cardinal are -8.5, but they are by no means a guarantee to get the job done in this game. Oregon meanwhile, is taking on the Washington Huskies is what might be the biggest game of the day. The Huskies beat Stanford last season (and that was the same Stanford team that went on the road and beat Oregon), and the Ducks are trying to avoid the same fate. QB Marcus Mariota and the gang are -13.5 on the road in Seattle, where College Gameday is going to be waiting for them. A loss for Washington would surely end its chances at a National Championship, if those chances aren’t gone already. A loss for either Stanford or Oregon won’t necessarily be completely damning, but it very well could be.

Over in the SEC, there are five teams that are playing for their lives, and we have a feeling that at least two of them are going to end up out of this mix when it’s all said and done with.

We’ll start with the game where we know there are going to be problems for the loser. Both the LSU Tigers and the Florida Gators have already been beaten once, and one is going to take the hook for the second time this year. If that’s the case, there is no way back into the National Championship picture. LSU would be knocked out of the SEC Championship race as well with its second conference loss. The Bayou Bengals are laying a touchdown, but this is a game that historically has been very interesting with a lot of upsets rampant.

The Georgia Bulldogs are taking on the Missouri Tigers down in Athens in a game that the oddsmakers are warning you could be sneaky. Mizzou is one of the two undefeated teams left in the SEC (the other being Alabama), and it isn’t going to go down in this one without a fight. Though Georgia is a Top 10 ranked team, it is only -8 in this game, and that certainly could be an issue.

The South Carolina Gamecocks, who may or may not have DE Jadeveon Clowney in this game, will take on the Arkansas Razorbacks on the road. The Hogs don’t stink by any stretch of the imagination, and the talent is there for this to be one of the Top 25 teams in the land. The Gamecocks are only -6 in this one on the road, the exact same price that another team on upset alert, the Texas A&M Aggies are favored by over the Ole Miss Rebels.

If any of these big name SEC teams lose, it will be crippling to the conference, as that will take away a lot of their power when it comes to the BCS rankings that are coming out this week.

SportsBetting.ag FootballThe Big Ten definitely features a couple games of note as well. The Michigan Wolverines are still undefeated, but they are facing one of their sternest tests on the road against the Penn State Nittany Lions. Head Coach Bill O’Brien and the boys have nothing to play for but games like this one, and you can bet that Beaver Stadium is going to be rocking for the first installment of this game since 2010. Michigan is favored by a deuce, but this is a game that is going to be frightening for the visitors.

Perhaps the most interesting game of the day from a betting standpoint is the one between the Northwestern Wildcats and the Wisconsin Badgers. We see unranked teams favored over ranked teams all the time, but we never see anything quite like this. The Wildcats are +10.5 on the road, and the oddsmakers are simply telling you that this game is anything but an upset. No one is buying into the fact that Northwestern is a Top 25 team, and the oddsmakers are telling you that they think Wisconsin should be. Don’t be sold on the whole idea that this would be an “upset” if the Badgers were to win this game. They’re expected to win it by double digits.

Other games of note from the start of the week… The San Diego State Aztecs are giving 4.5 to the Air Force Falcons on Thursday, while the Arizona Wildcats and the USC Trojans, in a game that very well could eliminate the loser of this one from the Pac-12 South this year, are expected to play a close one as well. USC is favored by 6.5 at home in the first game in the post-Lane Kiffin era. On Friday, the Temple Owls will go in search of their first win of the season, but they are getting 21 against the Cincinnati Bearcats.

Complete List of Week 6 College Football Lines Can Be Found Below
This article is written based off of the NCAA football opening betting lines at 11:00 PM on Sunday 9/29.
Updated college football odds can be found at the bottom of this post.

Notre Dame vs. Arizona StateWeek 6 NCAA football odds are posted here at Bankroll Sports, and we are already set to break down some of the best games on the college football betting lines for the week ahead. Join us as we take our best shot at the NCAA football Vegas odds in Week 6.

Big huge favorites are back again in Week 6, and the biggest favorite of the bunch is the Alabama Crimson Tide. The Tide have finally put together a rather complete game, as they took care of the Ole Miss Rebels last week without much of a fight. Now, for the first time all year, they should have a game where they open up one of these 70-3 cans on a poor unsuspecting foe. The unsuspecting foe this week is the Georgia State Panthers, who are clearly only here for the sake of getting a big, fat paycheck from the boys from Tuscaloosa and to get some experience as they figure out what life is like playing at the FBS level. It is clear that there is a real talent gap between these two teams, and there is little way that this game will be close. Want proof? This is one of the biggest college football point spreads in a game pitting a pair of FBS teams against each other, as Bama is expected to roll by 55.5.

Of course, it’s tough not to laugh when you think that a team that is -33.5 on the road is the third biggest favorite of the week, but that’s the case with the Louisville Cardinals against the Temple Owls in the City of Brotherly Love. The game that has supplanted this one is another conference game featuring another team on the road. The Oregon Ducks, who continue to just take out their lawn mower and trample everything in their way on their schedule, are giving 38 to the Colorado Buffaloes, who are clearly at the bottom of the Pac-12 and have no chance of competing in this game, even at Folsom Stadium with the high altitude. You could play this game on the moon and Oregon would put up 50 points.

That’s really the end of the garbage games though, and if there are only three games that are just complete and utter embarrassments with nearly 130 FBS teams to choose from, we consider it to be an accomplishment. There aren’t really any of those marquee games like we had last week when the LSU Tigers took on the Georgia Bulldogs, but there are good games littered throughout that are worth discussing.

NCAA Football BetDSITo kick off the week, there are a pair of teams that are going to be hoping to pull off some upsets to turn their seasons around. Neither the Iowa State Cyclones nor the Utah Utes are teams that are likely to be going to bowl games this year, but both could take a massive step towards that if they can beat teams that are perhaps amongst the most talented 25 in the country on Thursday night. The Cyclones are +9 at home against the Texas Longhorns, while the Utes are +4 at home against the UCLA Bruins. The Bruins know just how dangerous this game is, and QB Brett Hundley and the gang are going to be paying extra attention in practice. Rice-Eccles Stadium is no fun to play at, especially at night on national television.

On Friday, the Mountain West is going to be on display. The BYU Cougars, who have been a complete mixed bag this year, are +6.5 on the road going against a team that they are very familiar with. Of course, now, it’s the Utah State Aggiest that are in the Mountain West, while the Cougs are the independents. No less, this is a game that is going to be great. Both of these teams have already been beaten in the battle for the Beehive Cup, so that isn’t going to make a difference, but this one could have a big difference when it comes to recruiting. The host Aggies are -6.5 in what amounts to be a huge game for them, as it isn’t all that often that they are really expected to beat BYU. The San Diego State Aztecs play their first Mountain West game of the year on Friday night as well, as they are hosting the Nevada Wolf Pack. The Wolf Pack, in spite of their 2-0 start to the season in conference play, are +4.5 in this one.

There are a lot of middling games in conference play that could be very intriguing. The Iowa Hawkeyes haven’t played much in the way of big foes yet this year, but they are bringing one to Kinnick Stadium on Saturday. Iowa is -2 against the Michigan State Spartans, and the loser of this one is going to be in a lot of trouble when it comes to challenging for the Legends Division title. The Hawkeyes are already 4-1, but they still have a lot of work to do just to ensure that they will go bowling. The Illinois Fighting Illini and the Nebraska Cornhuskers are both 3-1 teams that have yet to open up their conference slates yet. They’ll do battle with the Children of the Corn giving 10.5 on the opening Week 6 college football lines.

SEC East teams are going to be in for some interesting battles this week as well. The Georgia Bulldogs, Florida Gators, and South Carolina Gamecocks are all double digit favorites in games against fellow SEC rivals. However, the Gamecocks (+21 vs. Kentucky) are playing in their first game without QB Connor Shaw, the Gators (-10.5 vs. Arkansas) are playing in their second game without QB Jeff Driskel, and the Bulldogs (-11 @ Tennessee) have to go on the road into a hostile environment against a team that is hungry for a victory the week after winning another huge game against a Top 10 team in the land. All of these games are dangerous to say the least. Even the team that lost that big game Between the Hedges last week, the LSU Tigers are only -9.5 at the Mississippi State Bulldogs in Starkville.

That brings us to the ACC, where issues are always interesting. The Florida State Seminoles are -14.5 at home against the Maryland Terrapins in one of the very few Top 25 matchups of the weekend, while the Clemson Tigers have another one of these “Clemson” games against the Syracuse Orange and are -11. Both of these teams have looked vulnerable over the course of the last few weeks, and the ACC can’t afford either to lose in the next two weeks with their matchup coming against each other in Death Valley on October 19th in what would be the biggest ACC game of the year. The North Carolina Tar Heels are also +7 in what would be an elimination game to them in all likelihood against the Virginia Tech Hokies, while the Miami Hurricanes, in their first conference game of the year, are currently off the board against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets in what will prove to be a critical clash.

SportsBetting.ag FootballThere are three clashes though, that are clearly very important in primetime, and they are going to shape the course of the rest of the college football betting season. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish know that they are going to have to probably run the table if they are going to end up making it into one of the BCS bowl games for a second straight season. They have the Arizona State Sun Devils in Arlington on Saturday night in the Shamrock Classic in the Lone Star State, and they are relatively big six-point pups. ASU wouldn’t be a Top 25 team in the land had the Wisconsin Badgers not blown it a few weeks ago, but there is no doubt that this is a team with some character that can fight it out against some of the best in the biz. This -6 spread is warranted.

Just a half hour later, the Northwestern Wildcats will be playing in what amounts to be perhaps the biggest game in the history of Ryan Field. The Cats are taking on the #4 Ohio State Buckeyes with a chance to seize control of the path to the Rose Bowl, and perhaps to the BCS National Championship as well. It’s still a pipe dream for Northwestern, but the spot is a good one. The Bucks are coming off of the emotional win over Wisconsin last week, and they have to go on the road in primetime to a hostile environment in this one. Be very careful, Ohio State! There’s a reason that you’re only a five-point favorite.

But perhaps the game of the night is the nightcap between the Stanford Cardinal and the Washington Huskies. Stanford has had its challenges thus far this year, and it is passing them with ease at this point. The defense is nasty for Head Coach David Shaw and the gang, and the unit is only going to get better as the season wears on. U-Dub is still undefeated and is inching up the polls with each and every week. Head Coach Steve Sarkisian knows if there is a way to get back into the Pac-12 title race, this is the way to do it. The Huskies pulled off the upset 17-13 last year in Seattle, but this would be a much different situation playing on the Farm and winning. The Cardinal are laying a touchdown for the third time in the last four years in this series, and they are hoping that this is the game that turns this series back into a blowout.

The highest ‘total’ of the week is 76, and that can be seen in a pair of games. The Oregon Ducks are expected to drop a huge number on the Colorado Buffaloes, and that’s why that number is so high, and the same could be said for the Baylor Bears, who are taking on the West Virginia Mountaineers. WVU finally flashed some offense last week in the upset of the Oklahoma State Cowboys, but this is going to require a heck of a lot more. The oddsmakers are showing some confidence that it is going to happen, which is more than we can say for this team from the rest of the year.

On the flip side of things, there are plenty of games that are in the 40s, including a record for the year of three games with numbers of 45 or lower. Some of these games could be embarrassing offensively, but none are like the clash between the Michigan State Spartans and the Iowa Hawkeyes. That number of 42 is pathetically low, but we continue to expect this out of the Big Ten in the future, especially in these MSU games.

Complete List of Week 5 College Football Lines Can Be Found Below

Updated college football odds can be found at the bottom of this post.

Mike the TigerWeek 5 NCAA football odds are posted here at Bankroll Sports, and we are already set to break down some of the best games on the college football betting lines for the week ahead. Join us as we take our best shot at the NCAA football Vegas odds in Week 5.

First off, we can really be thankful over the fact that this isn’t a week in which there are a ton of dog games like there were last week. We have some real marquee battles all across the board, and there are a lot of Top 25 teams on upset alert, unlike last week, when the entire Top 25 managed to hold firm, save for Stanford and Michigan State losing games against other ranked teams. In fact, there isn’t a single game pitting an FCS and an FBS team against each other for the first time all season long, and that should make for much better football.

We’ll start on Thursday and Friday with all of the midweek games. Over in the ACC, there is a crucial game on Thursday, as the Virginia Tech Hokies and the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets face off with one another. There is a good chance that this could act as an elimination game in the ACC Coastal Division race, especially if G-Tech, which has already beaten North Carolina and Duke, turns out to be victorious. Head Coach Frank Beamer and his Hokies haven’t looked all that sharp over the course of the last week or two, but they are winning games, something more than what we could say about a lot of other teams across the country, specifically in the ACC. Georgia Tech is giving 7.5 in this one, and that’s a heck of a lot of points to be giving in the ACC, especially in the Coastal Division where things couldn’t quite possibly be any tighter than they already are.

The Iowa State Cyclones have yet to win a game this year, but they are going to have a puncher’s chance in this one on the road against the Tulsa Golden Hurricane in a rare situation where a big time conference school has to go on the road to take on a Conference USA team. We haven’t seen a lot of luck for the big boys in this situation yet this year, especially out of the bottom of the Big XII, and the oddsmakers are quite aware of that. ISU is getting a field goal in this one against the Golden Hurricane, who in their own right, only have one victory

On Friday, there is a great game out of the MWC, as the San Jose State Spartans play host to the Utah State Aggies. San Jose State is a team that we remain high on in spite of the fact that it is only 1-2 on the season, and it has a chance to make a name for itself on national television on Friday night against Utah State. The Aggies have the names attached to them, including QB Chuckie Keeton, who figures to be one of the top players in the conference this year. Utah State is giving 9.5 on the road, but that could be a grossly overstated number, knowing that these two teams are very familiar with one another having played all those years in the WAC before transferring over.

In the final Friday nighter, the BYU Cougars are giving 21 to the Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders.

NCAA Football BetDSIPerhaps the best news is the fact that the 21 points being laid in that game between BYU and MTSU is one of the higher spreads of the weekend. At least as of this point, the only team that is favored by more than four touchdowns is the Oregon Ducks. The Quack Attack is excellent and is running up the score against anyone and everything that it faces. Now, it gets to take on a very similarly constructed Cal Golden Bears outfit that doesn’t nearly have the same type of athletes on it. QB Marcus Mariota and the gang should be in for a big time day for sure against what should be a challenged Cal team defensively, and that’s why the Ducks are laying 35.5.

There are some big road favorites that deserve to be pointed out. The Florida State Seminoles, who have destroyed all of their foes this year, are -21.5 on the road in their second conference game against the Boston College Eagles, while the Oklahoma State Cowboys are -21 on the road against the offensively challenged West Virginia Mountaineers. Why are these two games so notable? They’re the only ones on the whole slate where road teams are favored by more than 18 points. There are also only a total of six games on the docket right now that feature double digit road favorites, though there are teams like the Texas A&M Aggies, Miami Hurricanes, and Fresno State Bulldogs who will all open up as double digit chalks in all likelihood on the Week 5 NCAA football betting lines.

Last week, the Top 25 teams were favored by an average of 19 points per game, and a ton of them were laying 30 and 40 points and successfully covering in doing so. This time around, there are a slew of Top 25 teams that have to go on the road, many of which are in very dangerous situations.

The UCF Knights are looking to win what might be the biggest game in their history when they host the South Carolina Gamecocks at Bright House Networks Stadium. In spite of the fact that UCF isn’t a Top 25 team at this point, it is still a club that is getting a lot of respect from the oddsmakers. The Gamecocks are only +7.5 and are already dropping as the week starts off, and we are very aware that this could be a game where a Top 15 team in the land is on upset alert. The #14 Oklahoma Sooners could also be in some trouble when they hit the road to take on the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, who have failed to cover two straight games here in South Bend. The boys from Norman are expected to win and are -3 in this one, but we know that this is a game that really could end up going either way.

But of course, when you’re talking about the games of the day, there is no doubt that there are two games that everyone is going to be talking about. In the evening, the Ohio State Buckeyes and the Wisconsin Badgers are going to have at it in the Big Ten Leaders Division. Most essentially figure that this is the Leaders Division title game at this point, and with the Penn State Nittany Lions ineligible for the postseason, there is no doubt that the winner of this game is heading to Detroit for the conference title game barring an epic collapse with multiple losses. Ohio State still might not have QB Braxton Miller, who has been battling a knee injury, but the oddsmakers obviously have the confidence that this team is no worse with QB Kenny Guiton calling the shots if that’s what it comes to. We have to think that Miller is going to be back under center for the biggest game of the year in what might be one of the few games separating OSU from a trip to the National Championship Game. The Buckeyes are -7.5 on the opening college football Vegas odds.

The other game of course, is the big one out of the SEC. The LSU Tigers are going on the road to take on the Georgia Bulldogs, and there is no doubt that this is a personal game. QB Zach Mettenberger was kicked out of Athens early in his collegiate career, and he found a home here in the Bayou. LSU has taken a meteoric rise through the rankings over the course of the first four weeks of the season, and it is a team that many think can win this one “Between the Hedges.” It’s a game that could be dangerous for the Dawgs, who can’t afford another loss if they think they are going to contend for the National Championship, but it is every bit as big of a game for LSU, a team that many think could win the whole enchilada this year. LSU is getting 3.5 at the open, but the college football betting lines in this one are going to be flying all over the place.

SportsBetting.ag FootballThese aren’t the only really important games of the day by any stretch of the imagination. The Alabama Crimson Tide aren’t expected to be tested until the Bayou Bengals come to Tuscaloosa, but they had better not overlook the Ole Miss Rebels. The Rebs are hungry and they have already proven that they can go on the road and win some games this year. Ole Miss is getting 17, and many think that this could be a game very similar to last season’s game against QB Johnny Manziel and the Texas A&M Aggies. QB Bo Wallace could be a dark horse Heisman Trophy candidate, and if he can pull off the upset in this one, you can bet that you’ll be hearing many talk about him throughout the weeks to come.

Over in the Pac-12, the Stanford Cardinal are -10 on the road against the Washington State Cougars in an important game, while the Arizona Wildcats are getting a touchdown on the road in Seattle against the Washington Huskies.

The lowest ‘total’ of the week is right off of the bat on Thursday night between G-Tech and V-Tech. The number of 43 is almost as low as any number that we have seen all season long. However, on the flip side of that, Oregon and Cal are featuring an 84 on the board right now, and that’s the highest ‘total’ that we have ever seen in a game.

Complete List of Week 4 College Football Lines Can Be Found Below
This article is written based off of the NCAA football opening betting lines at 5:00 PM on Sunday 9/15. Updated college football odds can be found at the bottom of this post.

Dabo SwinneyWeek 4 odds are posted here at Bankroll Sports, and we are already set to break down some of the best games on the college football betting lines for the week ahead. Join us as we take our best shot at the NCAA football Vegas odds in Week 4.

What’s really lacking this week are some marquee games. There are a couple games with Top 25 impacts, but neither are really those tremendous games that feel like they should be highlighted in primetime or in that coveted 3:30 p.m. ET timeslot. The best game of the bunch is probably the duel in the Pac-12 between the Stanford Cardinal and the Arizona State Sun Devils. ASU probably had no business hanging on to beat the Wisconsin Badgers last week, but it did so in the end, and that’s all that matters. The Sun Devils are talented for sure, but they are going to have their hands full trying to score on the Stanford defense. The Cardinal have an opportunity to make a statement in this one, but the oddsmakers have caught up with them after they have failed to beat the college football odds in each of their first two games of this season. Stanford doesn’t care at all, knowing that it is 2-0. The Cardinal are giving eight to Arizona State.

The other marquee matchup pits the Notre Dame Fighting Irish up against the Michigan State Spartans. Offense probably is going to be rather optional in this one, knowing that these two teams have their flaws in a big time way on that side of the ball. However, both clubs have excellent defenses that could end up putting up some big time points in this one. Sparty is 3-0, but it is the ugliest 3-0 team in America after taking down the South Florida Bulls, Western Michigan Broncos, and Youngstown State Penguins without very much in the way of glitz or glamor, but it has a shot to make a name for itself in what will be a Top 25 eliminator game in South Bend. Notre Dame is -7, and we expect that there is going to be a big handle in this game on the NCAA football Vegas odds.

NCAA Football BetDSIThe week though, starts off with two really good games that might be two of the best of the weekend. The Clemson Tigers and the NC State Wolfpack are going to be doing battle with one another in Raleigh. If you remember right last year, this was the place that the Florida State Seminoles were beaten by this same NC State team right here at Carter Finley Stadium. If you also remember correctly, this Clemson team feels like it loses a game just like this one on the road every single season. We haven’t seen much out of QB Tajh Boyd since beating the Georgia Bulldogs in Week 1, and we think that this is going to be another one of these games that could be very sneaky. Clemson is -14, but we know that all week long, we are going to be hearing about this team being on upset alert.

The Friday night college football odds involve the best game of the year in the Mountain West. The Boise State Broncos know that they are probably going to have to beat the Fresno State Bulldogs at some point this year if they want to win the conference, but they haven’t looked good at all over the course of the start of the campaign. QB Joe Southwick has some decent numbers, but now he has to stand toe to toe with the man that is going to end up leading the conference in most statistics in all likelihood in QB Derek Carr. The Bulldogs are still thinking about the BCS, as they cracked the Top 25 this week in the Coaches’ Poll. This is their chance to state their case if they can win this game and win it handily. The oddsmakers know what they’re doing for sure by lining Fresno at -4.5, as that’s the type of number that is likely going to draw in a lot of sharp action on the Bulldogs and a lot of square action on Boise State. That being said, the Broncos know that they have the goods and the reputation to back this one up, as they have won and covered a slew of games on the road in the past. This though, is a very tough one.

In the 3:30 ET hour, two teams from the SEC East that have underachieved are going to be meeting in Gainesville, as the Tennessee Volunteers take on the Florida Gators. This is an interesting one to us. We really don’t think that the Gators are capable of scoring enough points to be laying double digits on a regular basis, but the problem is that the Volunteers might be giving up far too many points to not be double digit underdogs every single week. This is a bitter rivalry game that generally goes the way of the Gators, and this year probably isn’t going to be all that much of an exception if you listen to the oddsmakers. UF is giving 14 points at the open, and it is going to be happy to be back at home at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium after the loss two weeks ago to the Miami Hurricanes.

SportsBetting.ag FootballAnd then of course, there are all of the games that are expected to be tremendous blowouts. The truth of the matter is that this is probably going to be a suspect week unless there are some tremendous upsets that we just don’t see coming. The biggest of the expected blowouts this week pits the Louisville Cardnals up against the Florida International Golden Panthers. These two teams are on two different planets this year. The Cards are hoping to challenge for a BCS National Championship. The Golden Panthers were just absolutely trashed by the Bethune-Cookman Wildcats, who were actually favored in the game by a field goal. The college football point spread in this one? Six touchdowns.

Next up are the UCLA Bruins, who stormed to 38 unanswered points last week to the beat the Nebraska Cornhuskers. The Bruins now take on one of the worst teams on the West Coast, the New Mexico State Aggies, who have made a habit out of just getting obliterated in games like this one. The boys from Las Cruces are getting 39.5 points in this one.

The Alabama Crimson Tide, who you’d figure would be giving a tremendous amount of points to the Colorado State Rams, are obliging. The Tide are expected to roll in this one by 38 points. In fact, there are five games this week with spreads in the 30s, and there are three others that feature college football betting lines of four touchdowns or greater. Heck, there’s even a road team that is -32 this week, as the Vanderbilt Commodores are traveling to take on the Massachusetts Minutemen, who are sure to challenge as one of the worst teams in the FBS this year.

In FBS vs. FCS action, we have a lot of just ridiculous numbers. The Miami Hurricanes are the most ridiculous of the bunch, as they are laying 55 against the Savannah State Tigers. Then again, remember that Savannah State was beaten by 63 against the Troy Trojans earlier this year, and they were beaten 84-0 by the Oklahoma State Cowboys the year before. Miami is just one of three teams that are ranked in the Top 25 that are all favored by at least 50 points to open up the week, and it’s insane to think that that’s the case.

‘Totals’ finally opened up on Monday evening across the internet sportsbook scene, and we are impressed with some of the numbers. Of course, the most impressive of the bunch is the whopping 83.5 that came out for the Texas A&M Aggies and the SMU Mustangs. A&M clearly has a sieve of a defense this year, as the Aggies have allowed just gobs of points to everyone that they have faced. SMU isn’t afraid to try to outscore foes by putting 40 on the board either, and Head Coach June Jones surely isn’t shy about his scoring. A stunning seven games have ‘totals’ of at least 66, and that includes both the Thursday night and Friday night games. The ‘total’ on the other end of the spectrum is not surprisingly the one between the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the Michigan State Spartans. These two teams have a lot more defense than anything else, and it’s not a shock to see just a 42 on the board on the Week 4 college football odds.

Complete List of Week 3 College Football Lines Can Be Found Below
This article is written based off of the NCAA football opening betting lines at 10:00 AM on Sunday 9/8. Updated college football odds can be found at the bottom of this post.

Johnny Manziel vs. AlabamaThe Week 3 2013 college football odds are officially posted, and here at Bankroll Sports, we are going to be looking at some of the best games on the NCAA football lines right off the bat in Week 3 of the season.

We’ll get right into the heat of the action here at Bankroll Sports, as all eyes in Week 3 are going to be on the Alabama Crimson Tide and the Texas A&M Aggies. We all know that QB Johnny Manziel was able to go on the road last season and beat the Tide in Tuscaloosa, making him one of the rare quarterbacks who has been able to pull that out in the Head Coach Nick Saban era. Bama has been scheming all summer long for this game, and there is no doubt that the vanilla looking offense two weeks ago versus the Virginia Tech Hokies was absolutely in place because of the fact that Johnny Heisman and the Aggies were on deck. Saban rarely loses games in which he has had more than one week to prepare, and that’s why Alabama is favored by a touchdown in this one.

Before we get to the main course on Saturday though, there are some appealing appetizers that we have to dissect on Thursday and Friday. The TCU Horned Frogs are really having a nightmare of a season. They were beaten by the LSU Tigers right away in Week 1, and they lost QB Casey Pachall to an arm injury last week. Now, the Frogs have to hit the road to take on the Texas Tech Red Raiders, who are going to pose a real threat in this one. The Air Raid has been throwing the pigskin all over the field, but still, Head Coach Gary Patterson and the gang have opened up as 5.5-point favorites on the road in Lubbock.

Elsewhere on Thursday night, the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs are giving 7.5 tot he Tulane Green Wave, while the Arkansas State Red Wolves are -10 at home against the Troy Trojans in one of the first Sun Belt battles of the year.

On Friday, the Air Force Falcons are going to bring the triple option to the Smurf Turf, where the Boise State Broncos are favored by three touchdowns at the open.

NCAA Football BetDSIEarly in the rotation schedule, there are a ton of games that feature humongous point spreads. The Stanford Cardinal are laying 28.5 against the Army Black Knights on the road, making them the biggest road favorite that we have seen in a game all season long. The Rutgers Scarlet Knights are -29 against Head Coach Ron English’s Eastern Michigan Eagles. Meanwhile, the Georgia State Panthers, who are arguably the worst team in the FBS, are getting 38 against an offensively-challenged West Virginia Mountaineers outfit.

There are plenty of other major blowout projections according to the Week 3 college football odds as well. The Nevada Wolf Pack are +31 on the road against the hyped up QB Jameis Winston and the Florida State Seminoles. The Northern Illinois Huskies are traveling up to Moscow to take on the Idaho Vandals and are -24 favorites in doing so. Fresh off of their win over the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, the Michigan Wolverines should waltz to 3-0, as they are giving 35.5 to the Akron Zips. The Oklahoma Sooners, who have played tremendous defense thus far this season, are -37 against the Tulsa Golden Hurricane, while the Kansas State Wildcats are -37 against the Massachusetts Minutemen. The Northwestern Wildcats are eking up the rankings as the weeks go on, and they should have no troubles with the Western Michigan Broncos, who are getting 34 points in Evanston. The biggest of all of the favorites though, is the LSU Tigers for the second straight week. LSU blasted the UAB Blazers last week, and this week’s clash against the Kent State Golden Flashes in which they are -38 puts the Bayou Bengals in the same boat this week.

Not every game is projected to be a blowout though, and there are some very interesting ones on the docket. The Wisconsin Badgers, who have played virtually no one yet this season, are playing against the Pac-12’s Arizona State Sun Devils and are getting 5.5 points thanks to their massive road trip.

Keep an eye as well on the game between the Vanderbilt Commodores and the South Carolina Gamecocks. The Gamecocks were beaten last week by the Georgia Bulldogs, and they now know that they are going to have to run the table in the SEC to really have a shot at contending for the National Championship or the SEC East crown. They’re -12.5 in this one, but there aren’t many that don’t believe that Vandy, which lost its SEC opener against the Ole Miss Rebels two weeks ago, can’t contend.

In one of the better non-conference battles that isn’t garnering much attention, the UCF Knights are only +3.5 against the Penn State Nittany Lions at Beaver Stadium.

Keep an eye as well, on the USC Trojans. The Men of Troy were beaten last week by the Washington State Cougars to get knocked out of the Top 25, and they are laying a very large 16 once again at home against the Boston College Eagles. There’s a real chance if this game goes poorly, that it could be the last for Head Coach Lane Kiffin.

BetOnline FootballThere aren’t a ton of tremendous games on the docket at night like there usually are on college football Saturdays, but that’s what happens when the cream of the crop game is on CBS at 3:30. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are going to be on the road in the Big Ten for the second straight week on NBC. This time, they’re going to the Purdue Boilermakers, who were very fortunate just to beat the Indiana State Sycamores last week in the home opener. Ross-Ade Stadium is going to be ready for this one, but the Boilers are getting 21.5 points. Remember that last year though, Purdue nearly sprung the upset on the road in South Bend, and this might be a lot closer of a game than the college football expert handicappers suggest.

The ‘totals’ have generally gotten a heck of a lot higher over the course of this week. There are a number of games that are highlighted in the 60s and even the 70s. Right away on Thursday, the TCU game and the Troy game are both in the 60s. The Horned Frogs game features a number of 63 in spite of the fact that it seems like a pair of backup quarterbacks are going to be playing, but the higher number is the 67 in the Sun Belt game.

It might seem like the 69 in the game between the Ohio Bobcats and the Marshall Thundering Herd is high, and it might seem like the 70 on the college football odds between the Fresno State Bulldogs and Colorado Buffaloes are high, but not surprisingly, the Oregon Ducks feature the highest ‘total’ on the board. The Ducks and the Tennessee Volunteers are sitting at 72 right now, and with as badly as the Vols have played defense and for as much as the Quack Attack runs up and down the field, we definitely aren’t doubting that this game could get to the number.

On the lower end of things, Stanford’s high octane defense can shut down anyone in the country, and it’s not surprising that the number is 46 against Army. The lowest number though, is the 43 on the NCAA football odds between the anemic USC Trojans and the Boston College Eagles. Neither of these teams have any real chance to get the job done in the passing game, so it’s going to take a lot on the ground to reach this relatively low number.

Complete List of Week 2 College Football Lines Can Be Found Below

Michigan Stadium at nightThe Week 2 2013 college football odds are officially posted, and here at Bankroll Sports, we are going to be looking at some of the best games on the NCAA football lines right off the bat in Week 2 of the season.

Thanks to the fact that this is also the first week of the NFL season, we know that some of the games on the college football schedule are going to be a lot less intriguing than they were in Week 1. We find that out right off the bat on Thursday when the Florida Atlantic Owls travel on the road to the East Carolina Pirates for the first time as members of Conference USA. What we learned last week about the Pirates is what we knew from them last year. This is a team that can fly all over the field with QB Shane Carden calling the shots under center, but it is also a team that is going to be in some trouble on the other side of the field. If FAU can figure out how to score some points in this game, there’s a chance for the outright upset.

Friday’s game isn’t all that intriguing either. Don’t get us wrong. This is an important one for both the Boston College Eagles and the Wake Forest Demon Deacons, but it isn’t a game that is going to be all that thrilling to watch or to bet on. The oddsmakers are having a real tough time lining this one on the college football odds, but the Eagles have come into this week as a three-point favorite in a battle of two of the lesser teams in the ACC. Elsewhere on Friday night, the UCF Knights are giving 24.5 to the FIU Golden Panthers down in South Florida. The Knights opened up the week at -21 and quickly rose up to where they are at right now.

NCAA Football BetDSIAnd that brings us up to Saturday, where it feels like the mass majority of the games at the FBS level don’t even involve a pair of FBS teams playing against each other. The biggest favorite of the bunch in the FBS vs. FCS games are the Clemson Tigers over the South Carolina State Bulldogs. It’s not all that surprising to see the oddsmakers giving South Carolina State a head start of 52.5 points, but is it enough? It’s going to be tough for the Tigers to really get up for this one for sure.

Interestingly enough though, there aren’t all that many games that feature tremendously lopsided college football spreads at the FBS vs. FBS level. The biggest favorite of the bunch in that mix is the LSU Tigers. The Bayou Bengals are coming off of a very impressive win in Arlington over the TCU Horned Frogs, and they are going to be coming back home to Tiger Stadium for the first time this year. They’ve got the UAB Blazers coming to town, and you know that Baton Rouge is going to be rocking at night. The Blazers are getting 34.5. LSU though, has had very little luck covering games against numbers this big, and this could be problem going forward in this game. Still, there’s no doubt that the men in white, gold, and purple are going to be 2-0 when this day is said and done with.

It’s not that every game on the docket stinks, though. There are three tremendous showcase games which are played at 12:00, 4:30, and 8:00 to spread out the day for college football betting fans.

We’ll start in the Sunshine State at high noon, where the Florida Gators are favored by a field goal over the Miami Hurricanes on the road. Florida is one of the squarer teams on the docket, knowing that they are a short road favorite against a team that is unranked (at least according to the AP Poll). However, Miami is hungry for this victory, and Head Coach Al Golden knows that it is one of the biggest spots that his team has ever been in, referring to it as the “biggest game in [his] tenure” at “The U.” This could be the day that RB Duke Johnson becomes a legitimate Heisman Trophy contender for this season in just his sophomore year.

The afternoon features the most important game of the day, as we have another situation where a team is favored by just a field goal at home. The Georgia Bulldogs are in dire need of a victory after getting beaten last week by the aforementioned Clemson Tigers, and they aren’t going to be in for an easy one this time around either. The South Carolina Gamecocks are coming to town, and the Dawgs have actually never beaten SC since QB Aaron Murray came to town three seasons ago. This is the fourth and final chance for UGA to get the job done, and if this one isn’t won, you have to think that the best this team can do is get to the Capital One Bowl this season, barring a huge collapse by the Gamecocks down the line in the SEC season. South Carolina knows that it has a team that can contend for a National Championship though, and this is a glorious opportunity to capitalize and firmly into the Top 5 in the land in both polls.

BetOnline FootballIs the game between the Michigan Wolverines and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish one of the biggest rivalries in college football? That’s the question that has been bantered around all week between these two as they embark upon their last game in this series that will be played in Ann Arbor. It’s a rare game under the lights, and the crowd at the Big House is going to be rocking and rolling for this one. QB Devin Gardner and the Wolverines have high hopes for a National Championship this year and a run at Ohio State for the Big Ten title. Notre Dame though, has won 13 straight regular season games dating back to last season, easily the best mark in the country. The Golden Domers are getting four points, and that’s a scary little number to be getting in a game that could be back and forth the whole way as it was the last time that these two met at Michigan Stadium.

There is an unusually high amount of road favorites in Week 2 on the college football odds. We have already spoken about Florida, but other teams like the Houston Cougars (-3 @ Temple), Cincinnati Bearcats (-8 @ Illinois), Utah State Aggies (-9.5 @ Air Force), Duke Blue Devils (-6 @ Memphis), Texas Longhorns (-7.5 @ BYU Cougars), Bowling Green Falcons (-7.5 @ Kent State), and Arizona Wildcats (-10.5 @ UNLV) are also favored. The biggest road favorites of the weekend are the Oklahoma State Cowboys, though the Pokes are going to want to be careful with this one. They have the Texas San Antonio Roadrunners, who have been wildly successful over the course of their first season and change here at the FBS level. This is the first time that a big time conference team has ever come to the Alamodome, and the student section for this game is going to be delirious. We don’t think that the Roadrunners are winning this game, but there is a good chance that they stick inside of the 26.5-point college football Vegas lines.

‘Totals’ this week are interesting as well. The oddsmakers haven’t really taken any bold steps into the 70s or into the low-40s, but there are some games of note.

One of the lowest ‘totals’ of the weekend pits the Bowling Green Falcons against the Kent State Golden Flashes. Only 45.5 are expected to hit the board in that game, and that is only one of the six games all weekend long that are lined in the 40s. Keep an eye on the clash between the Michigan State Spartans and the South Florida Bulls as well. That game is lined at 44, and it is the lowest mark of the weekend by a relatively big 1.5-point margin. Neither one of these teams showed much of anything offensively last week, and it could be a tough day for both on that side of the ball once again.

The highest ‘total’ of the week is only 67.5. There are plenty of games in the mid-60s, but the highest of the bunch involves the Navy Midshipmen and the Indiana Hoosiers. These two are high flying teams that can score a lot of points, but neither has a defense of any note whatsoever. Still, that’s a lot to ask for a game this early in the season, especially with two clubs who tend to be all over the map in terms of wins and losses. There is a ton of inconsistency on both sides.

Tajh BoydThe 2013 college football odds are officially posted, and here at Bankroll Sports, we are going to be looking at some of the best games on the NCAA football lines right off the bat in Week 1 of the season.

The first day of games kicks off on Thursday night, and though there isn’t a heck of a lot on the docket of major note, the No. 6 team in the country is in action. As has almost certainly become a tradition, the South Carolina Gamecocks are going to open up on the first night of the season, this time at home against the North Carolina Tar Heels. It’s a chance for the ACC to make a big statement to the SEC, but it’s a statement that isn’t likely to be made. SEC teams have a history of destroying their ACC foes in games like this, but this time around, at least the college football point spreads are modest, as SC is favored by 11.

The mass majority of the college football odds on Thursday night are lopsided, though the one game that is a conference tussle certainly isn’t. The Ole Miss Rebels are giving just 3.5 in a very dangerous game against the Vanderbilt Commodores, who are certainly on the rise. The boys in Nashville have a lot of growing up to do in a hurry, as they have a very young team that lost a lot of pieces to the puzzle last year, and going against Head Coach Hugh Freeze and the Rebs will be no easy task.

The other showcase game of Saturday pits a pair of Beehive State foes against one another. This is as good of a chance as the Utah State Aggies have had of going into Salt Lake City and beating the Utah Utes as they have had in recent memory, and they are only 2.5-point underdogs in this one.

Friday’s relation short slate doesn’t feature much in the way of great teams that are in action either. The biggest point spread of the bunch in FBS vs. FBS games is the 32.5 that the Miami Hurricanes are giving to the Florida Atlantic Owls. There really aren’t a ton of dangerous games in the bunch, as there are only a pair of games that even pit FBS teams against each other. The other game on the Week 1 odds that will be contested between major foes is the ESPN game in the Lone Star State between the SMU Mustangs and the Texas Tech Red Raiders. This is the closest game of the night for sure, and a very talented and hyped up TT side is going to be a five-point favorite in this one.

And now, we get to the main course of the first weekend of college football action, as this first Saturday of the season pits some big time teams against one another.

The best game of the day is likely the duel between the Georgia Bulldogs and the Clemson Tigers. These two teams both have National Championship aspirations, and there is a good chance that even the loser of this one is going to be ranked in the Top 10 in the country when this game is over with. For much of the offseason, Georgia was the slight underdog to Clemson in what could be a coming out party for QB Tajh Boyd as he starts his Heisman Trophy campaign as a senior. However, the tide has turned in favor of QB Aaron Murray and the Bulldogs, who are laying two points in what should be a remarkable game.

Speaking of the Tide, the Alabama Crimson Tide are starting their National Championship defense in style as well. They’re going to be playing against the Virginia Tech Hokies on a neutral field. The game won’t be the easiest, but regardless of who Alabama has been playing out of conference of late, the results haven’t been pretty for the opposition. Ask Penn State what it thought of its two-game series with the Tide. V-Tech has already learned the hard way that Alabama is obviously legit, and the idea of the Hokies challenging in this one as 18.5-point underdogs is difficult to fathom.

The LSU Tigers are the third SEC team taking on a legit foe in Week 1 of the campaign. The Bayou Bengals are playing in the only other Top 25 clash against the TCU Horned Frogs in Arlington in what could feel like a little bit of a home field advantage for TCU. Expect there to be a lot of defense in this game for sure, as both of these teams ratchet up the pressure on the opposition quite a bit. LSU is favored by four points, but it seems to be a tenuous NCAA football point spread to say the least.

As always, there are a share of stinkers that are out there as well, many of which pit FBS teams up against significantly weaker FCS teams. The biggest favorite of the bunch are not surprisingly the Oregon Ducks, who run up the score on everyone that they can. They’ve got nine touchdowns to cover against the Nicholls State Colonels in the first game of the year, and that makes the Quack Attack the biggest favorites of the weekend.

BetOnline FootballThat said, Oregon isn’t the only team that is favored by ridiculously huge margins. Just in FBS vs. FBS games alone, we have spreads of 44.5 (Wisconsin over Massachusetts), 35.5 (Ohio State over Buffalo), 30 (Notre Dame over Temple), 42 (Texas over New Mexico State) and 28 (Nebraska over Wyoming).

Totals in Week 1 are relatively low as they usually are, but there are some that stand out for sure. As we already mentioned in that Clemson/Georgia game, there is a huge emphasis put on points in this one. Both Boyd and Murray have the ability to get the ball up the field in a hurry. That’s why this game features the highest total of the weekend at 72.5. No other game tops 70, though by the time the Miami Redhawks and the Marshall Thundering Herd kick it off, they might ultimately get there.

On the other end of the spectrum, there aren’t any games in Week 1 that feature totals in the 30s quite yet, though we do know that there are plenty of games that will end as such. The 45.5 in the Alabama/Virginia Tech game is easily the lowest of the weekend.

However, we’re not done yet! As we move forward to Sunday and Monday, there are still college football games on the schedule to talk about!

On Sunday, the Louisville Cardinals have a trickier-than-it-seems battle with the Ohio Bobcats. The Bobcats are no joke, and they have beaten their share of big time teams in the past. They’re getting 20.5 in this one, and an upset in this game would immediately permanently derail any National Championship hopes that the newly formed AAC favorites have. Elsewhere on Sunday, the Colorado State Rams are favored by 2.5 over the Colorado Buffaloes in one of the most underwhelming instate rivalries that we have in college football.

As has become a tradition, Monday Night Football on Labor Day pits a pair of teams from the ACC against each other. This year though, we have a newcomer to the scene, as the Pitt Panthers are going to be flying the ACC flag for the first time in this home game at Heinz Field. The competition really couldn’t get much tougher though, as they are welcoming in the Florida State Seminoles. The Noles are going to be debuting QB Jameis Winston in this one, the man that could be the next coming of QB Johnny Manziel, and they are giving 10. This is a dangerous game for FSU though, as the Seminoles have a history of punting away games like this which they seem to have no business doing.
