College Football Week 4 Best Bets

Friday, September 20
Illinois at Nebraska, 8 p.m., (FOX)

Buzz: 🔒 Bookies+ Exclusive

Saturday, Sept. 21
Marshall at (3) Ohio State, 12 p.m. (FOX)

Buzz: Big Noon Saturday? Seriously? The bye in the new playoff system will be coveted gem come the Holidays. Monster, lopsided wins against cupcakes are necessary. The Buckeyes want to shock viewers watching the other games in the early time slot.

Pick: Ohio State -39.5

North Carolina State @ (21) Clemson, 12 p.m. (ABC)

Buzz: 🔒 Bookies+ Exclusive

UCLA at (16) LSU, 3:40 p.m. (ABC)

Buzz: The party is already underway in Baton Rouge. Given the new playoff format, teams need to win big. Style points will matter this time. Look for the Tigers to keep pouring it on here. UCLA opened in the Big Ten last week and got smacked by Indiana 42-13. LSU showed mettle at Columbia last week, snagging a tough win over South Carolina. Look for the home team to win big here and keep the locals happy.

Pick: LSU -22.5 Points

(11) Southern Cal at (18) Michigan, 3:30 p.m. (CBS)

Buzz: This is the Big Ten game of the week. It on CBS. We have entered another meta-verse. ESPN's FPI gives the Vols a 71.2% chance to win. The Wolverines were outclassed at home by Texas 2 weeks ago in 31-12 loss. Lincoln Riley's had 2 weeks - plus a full offseason - to prepare for this game. USC will be ready for its B1G opener. The Trojans' rebuild defense smashed in its debut vs. LSU. It will be the story here in Ann Arbor.

Pick: USC -5.5 points

(6) Tennessee at (15) Oklahoma, 7:30 p.m. (ABC/ESPN)
