This week there's even more excitement to be seen on the field, with Penn State and Ohio State playing what could be an elimination game for the College Football Playoff and teams like Miami and TCU still hoping to run the table to earn one of the four coveted postseason spots. As the season goes on, judging the motivations of these players becomes more and more vital to gaining a gambling edge. After a 3-4 week, we're trying to get back on the horse and keep up our winning season betting against the spread. So let's strap in and get to picking on another week of college football action. All lines are courtesy of the Westgate Las Vegas Superbook. LAST WEEK: 3-4 OVERALL: 30-26 Penn State (+6.5) over Ohio State I attended the Penn State game last weekend against Michigan and am now convinced that Saquon Barkley is capable of scoring literally any time he touches the ball. This game has all the makings of a classic and could very likely determine which of these two teams makes the playoff. We've seen the Buckeyes fall short at home before, so I like Penn State to keep this one close and even win outright. Notre Dame (-7.5) over NC State Notre Dame absolutely rolled USC last weekend and made me look like a dunce for backing the Trojans. Maybe I'm overreacting, but I don't want to be played for a fool two weeks in a row. Washington (-18) over UCLA Last week I picked against UCLA because of all the money they've cost me this year... and they proceeded to take even more on my money. But I was just a week early! Chris Peterson's Huskies are going to roll over the Bruins. Just double whatever you lost last week against UCLA and bet it here. In fact triple it. This UCLA is going to give me my money back if I have to squeeze it out of them.
