SMART BET College Football Plays for Saturday 10/10

Overall Profit +0.6 units.

Solid win last night with Nebraska. They struggled early, but pulled away late. That brings us to 2-0 this week with winners on Troy and Nebraska.

I love the card this weekend and think there is a ton of money to be made.

1. Houston at Mississippi State (+2) or (-1) for 1 unit (L): I bet this game on Tuesday at +2, however the line currently is at -2 and -2.5 in some places. There is no way Houston deserves to be favored on the road against an SEC opponent. Plus Houston’s BCS hopes are already out the window. MSU has lost 2 straight at home to difficult SEC opponents. I just don’t see them losing three in a row at home.

2. UCONN (+7.5) at Pittsburgh for 1 unit (W): Another game showing great line movement as UCONN is only a 6 point underdog at the Hilton. UCONN has continued to impress me all year as I have counted them out on several occassions. I think this game is low scoring and will gladly take the points.

3. Iowa State (+19.5) at Kansas for 1 unit (W)

4. Bowling Green at Kent (+3.5) for 1 unit (W)

5. Stanford at Oregon State (+1) for 2 units (W)

6. Oregon at UCLA (+3.5) for 1 unit (L)

7. Kentucky (+9) vs South Carolina for 1 unit (W)

8. Wisconsin at Ohio State (-16) for 1 unit (W): first road test for Wisconsin. Tough spot for Wisconsin as Ohio State isn’t the easiest place to start your road Big Ten play.

9. Arizona State (-21) at Washington State for 1 unit (L): ASU was disappointing last week, they come much more focused this weekend.

Good Luck.
