The over/under is 45 and I like the under as well. The Aztecs beat Ohio, one of the better teams in the MAC, to start the season but struggled to score against two of the Pac-12's better teams in the last two games. Boise State was held under 20 points in both losses. Washington annihilated the Broncos to start the season and then UCF defeated them at home, a place they rarely lose. Pick: Wisconsin -6 Upset of the Week Boise State (-7) at San Diego State, Fridayīoise State has not looked like the team many picked to win the Mountain West this season. Look for the Badgers' running game to wear down the Purdue defense and for Wisconsin to cruise to a comfortable win. However, nobody has Purdue's number like Wisconsin, which has not lost to the Boilermakers since 2003. Syracuse seems to bring out the worst in Purdue, as evidenced again last Saturday in the Boilermakers' loss to the Orange. Pick: Washington -21 Wisconsin (-6) at Purdue, Friday I like Cal, but the Bears are not at least two touchdowns better than everyone else Washington has played. The Spartans lost by 34 only because Washington mostly put the passing game in mothballs in the second half. The team to come closest to the Huskies was Michigan State last week. Washington has been laying waste to its schedule so far. The Hawkeyes defense will slow Penn State some, but their offense will go back to its typical slumber. There is no reason to believe that Iowa can put up numbers like that in Big Ten games, especially one in Happy Valley.

That is noteworthy because that is typically a two game total for the Hawkeyes. Iowa's much maligned offense put up 41 points on Western Michigan last week. Odds via SportsLine consensus Week 4 picks No. 500 on the season and still looking for the first hit on the upset special Here are this week's picks. Week 3 was unkind, but I am not ready to give up yet. So for now, I'll go with the top 12 teams in the current AP Top 25. This early in the season, any major conference team that hasn't lost twice yet is technically still a CFP candidate. I will also give you picks on other games involving potential College Football Playoff teams. I will also throw in an upset of the week, which will be a team that is at least a touchdown underdog that I am picking to win outright. One of those games is among my picks this week.Įach week, I will use this space to tell you what I think are a few of the best bets heading into the weekend. This week will be a lot more interesting with five games between ranked opponents led by No.

Of the teams in last week's AP Top 25 that played, 18 either faced FCS opponents or were favored by at least three touchdowns. Last week did not have much in the way of marquee matchups.
