College Football Week 10 Best Bets To Back Today

Saturday, November 2 
(1) Oregon at Michigan, 3:30 p.m. (CBS)

Buzz: The Ducks continue to quack up the rest of the Big Ten in their first season in the conference. Oregon has been dominant at home and pitched a shutout at Purdue. Oregon scored 30 or more points in 6 straight games after Week 1. The Ducks here have an opportunity to knock off the defending national champions in the Big House. Oregon isn’t afraid of playing away from home. A 2+ TD win in Ann Arbor would ice the Ducks’ spot at No. 1 in the national polls until the B1G title game and/or its first loss. The  Ducks and Wolverines are 4-10 on the line this season through Week 9. In cases like these, lean into the quality team, especially 10 games into the season. ESPN Analytics gives Oregon a 77.0% to win.

Best Bet: Oregon -15.5 (-110) at DraftKings

Saturday, November 2 
(4) Ohio State at (3) Penn State, 12 p.m. (FOX) 

Buzz: Ohio State needs a win to keep its hopes alive for both a spot in the Big Ten title game and spot in the college football playoff. A 2-loss Buckeyes team won’t cut it this season, even with those losses coming to Penn State and Oregon. The math doesn’t work given that Ohio State would have been beaten by the loser of the Big Ten title game. ESPN Analytics gives Ohio State a 68.5% to win. That isn’t reflected in this line. The Bucks are getting a discount. 

Best Bet: Ohio State -4 (-110) at DraftKings

Saturday, November 2 
Texas Tech at (10) Iowa State, 3:30 p.m. (ESPN) 

Buzz: The Cyclones come off a bye and are tied atop the Big 12 after surviving a scare against UCF. That was their sufficient scare. Meanwhile, Texas Tech has to wrestle with Texas Christian this week. Iowa State had allowed just 11 points per game before that 38-35 win over UCF. Its defense will be well rested and prepared for Tech’s run-first attack. ESPN Analytics gives ISU an 82.2% to win.

Best Bet: TBD (-110) at DraftKings

Saturday, November 2 
Arizona at UCF, 3:30 p.m. (FS1) 

Buzz: Arizona lost 3 straight heading into its game against West Virginia in Week 9. This trip will be their longest of the year – 3569.52 miles round trip – crossing 3 time zones each way thanks to Daylight Savings Time. The Wildcats may also find something else unique in their first visit to the Sunshine State – humidity. Teams that travel to Florida from higher and drier climes often find themselves dealing with dehydration and exhaustion issues late. The forecast calls for rain early in the day, and lots of humidity later on in the afternoon. ESPN Analytics gives UCF a 76.5% to win.

Best Bet: TBD (-110) at DraftKings

Saturday, November 2 
Florida vs. (2) Georgia (at Jacksonville), 3:30 p.m. (ABC)

Buzz: We’ll still call it “The World’s Largest Cocktail Party.” Florida and Georgia resume hostilities in Jacksonville. Both teams are coming off the bye. Georgia’s defense wrecked Texas in Week 8. The Dawgs are sitting in the CatBird seat in the SEC and will be in the conference title game if they win out. The Gators have saved Billy Napier’s job with wins over UCF and Kentucky, and a loss to Tennessee in overtime. A Georgia rout here won’t be catastrophic in that sense. The Gators can score – but not against this Georgia defense. Any sort of running game by the Dawgs could open things up for Carson Beck and translate into a rout in the 2^nd half. But the Dawgs have woofed against the spread – going just 2-5 ATS in 7 games. ESPN Analytics gives ISU an 82.2% to win. But we’ll give the Gators the edge to cover on this number. 

Best Bet: Florida +18 (-110) at DraftKings

Saturday, November 2 
Kentucky at (7) Tennessee, TBD

Buzz: The Vols are on the bye after a dominant win at home over Alabama. Kentucky faces Auburn in Week 9. The Vols have begun to use their depth on defense to smother opponents. Kentucky lost to Florida by 28 points, while the Vols knocked off the Gators in OT. Tennessee needs to both run the table in the SEC and continue to stuff the ballot box when it comes to point differential against common opponents. One of these 3 teams will miss the SEC title game – Tennessee, Georgia, and Texas. All 3 play Kentucky this season. ESPN Analytics gives Tennessee an 89.8% to win.

Best Bet: TBD (-110) at DraftKings

Saturday, November 2 
Duke at (6) Miami, TBD

Buzz: The ACC may only get one team in the college football playoff, especially if the winner of the ACC title game is undefeated. That’s the reality facing Miami. The Canes will need to not only run the table but run up the score against the ACC opponents, perhaps to even get a spot in the title game itself. Duke will be the latest victim here. In addition to facing the Canes’ defense and QB Cam Ward, Duke will be dealing with the heat and humidity of South Florida in November. ESPN Analytics gives Miami a 90.7% chance to win.

Best Bet: TBD at DraftKings

Saturday, November 2 
Louisville at (9) Clemson, TBD

Buzz: Clemson holds the edge in the ACC race – for now – by virtue of its schedule. The Tigers were 5-0 in the conference ahead of Week 9, having played and won 2 more games than their closest competitors. But their ACC schedule gets tougher starting this week. They visit Virginia Tech and close the ACC schedule out at No. 19 Pitt. ESPN Analytics gives Clemson a 66.8% to win. This is really a 2-touchdown line disguised as 10.5 points. 

Best Bet: Louisville +10.5  (-110) at DraftKings
