Wake Forest Demon Deacons -3.0 at Army Black Knights
The Wake Forest Demon Deacons are one of the biggest surprises in the country this season as they are still a perfect 6-0. Army presents a unique challenge for Wake Forest this week, and the sportsbooks expect this game to be close. Wake Forest is scoring 38 points per game this season, but it is going to be their run defense that is the key in this matchup. Army is rushing for 295 yards per game, and they are going to continue to put pressure on that defensive front.
Demon Deacons quarterback Sam Hartman has continued to make big plays for Wake Forest when his team needs it the most, throwing 14 touchdowns to just three interceptions. It will be the play of Hartman that is eventually going to take control of this matchup.
Army is going to keep this game close, but Wake Forest is just too explosive. Take the Demon Deacons -3.0 with the first pick of the parlay.
Texas Tech Red Raiders ML vs. Kansas State Wildcats
The second game to look at comes from the Big 12 Conference as Texas Tech hosts Kansas State, and the betting lines are EVEN for this matchup. Texas Tech has gone 5-2 this season, while Kansas State has lost three straight games after a 3-0 start. This should be a high-scoring affair as each team has really struggled on defense at times. The Red Raiders are throwing for nearly 300 yards per game, and that passing attack is going to be a key in this game.
This betting line feels off a bit, as the Red Raiders should be the favorite at home. Don’t be fooled with the odds and bet on Texas Tech to beat Kansas State.
Virginia Tech Hokies -3.0 vs. Syracuse Orange
Virginia Tech has lost three of their last four games, and Syracuse enters Saturday with a three-game losing streak. Each team could really use a victory in this game, but the Hokies are the much better team overall. Syracuse has lost each of the last three games by just three points, but they haven’t been able to get over the hump. The Orange are averaging 29.0 points per game, but they are facing a tough defensive team.
Virginia Tech has struggled to find offense, and they are throwing it for just 180 yards per game. The Hokies have to improve in this area, but they will hit on some big plays in this game.
It will be Virginia Tech that gets a much-needed win, and they cover the 3.0 point spread on Saturday.
Oklahoma State Cowboys +7.0 at Iowa State Cyclones
The fourth game to look at with this parlay is a Big 12 matchup between the Oklahoma State Cowboys and the Iowa State Cyclones. The Cowboys are a perfect 6-0 on the season, but they are touchdown underdogs on the road against a disappointing Iowa State team.
Running back Jaylen Warren has rushed for over 700 yards this season for Oklahoma State, and he has been a nightmare for Big 12 Conference defenses. Iowa State is a great defensive team, but Warren will find some holes. The Cyclones have been great offensively in the last two weeks, but that hasn’t always been the case. Quarterback Bryce Purdy has thrown four interceptions this season, and they have come at some bad times.
Iowa State might be able to win this game, but Oklahoma State should not be a seven-point underdog. Take the points in this matchup and bet on the Cowboys.
Notre Dame Fighting Irish -7.0 vs. USC Trojans
The final game to look at with your parlay is one of the best rivalries in college football. The Notre Dame Fighting Irish host the USC Trojans, and this is a game that could be interesting.
Notre Dame has not been able to find a true starting quarterback this season, but they still come into this game with a record of 5-1. USC has been extremely disappointing this season, and they have been blown out three times in their first six games. The Trojans can score at times, but their defense has been bad in all three of the losses. USC is also a team that has a tendency to give up when things go poorly, and Notre Dame is always tough on their home ice.
The fact that this is a rivalry game will keep things close for a half, but Notre Dame is much better overall. Take the Fighting Irish -7.0 as they blow this game open and cruise to a win over their rival.
