The college football season is quickly coming to an end and it’s hard to believe we’re already in November. As the season progresses, we’re getting closer to the College Football Playoff and bowl season. This weekend offers some intriguing matchups, with Alabama vs. LSU and Georgia vs. Missouri being the highlights.
Games of the Week
The Georgia Bulldogs have been dominant this season, and their performance against Florida last week solidified their strength. Missouri will pose a challenge, but they have struggled against good teams, making Georgia the clear favorite in this matchup.
On the other hand, the LSU Tigers have one of the best offenses in the country, but their defense has been subpar. Alabama’s explosive passing attack could exploit this weakness, making this game high-scoring.
Lock of the Week
The Arizona Wildcats have been performing well against the spread this season, making them a good bet against UCLA. While UCLA is ranked, their wins have come against weaker opponents, and Arizona has proven to be a solid team.
Under of the Week
Traditional military academies like Army, Air Force, and Navy usually have low-scoring games. However, recent changes to the sport have made these under bets riskier. Nonetheless, the under bet in the Army vs. Air Force game is worth considering.
Road Favorite of the Week
Kentucky has had a tough stretch of games recently, but they have performed well against teams at their level. Mississippi State has struggled in conference play, making Kentucky the favorite in this matchup.
Fade of the Week
Baylor has not performed well against the spread this season and has struggled as a favorite. Houston is coming off a rough loss, but the spread in this game is skewed, making Houston an interesting pick.
