Michigan CB Clark has torn ACL
September 26, 2016


ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh says starting cornerback Jeremy Clark suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament against Penn State and is likely done for the season.


Clark, a fifth-year senior, made 10 tackles and is tied for team-high honors with three pass breakups for the fourth-ranked Wolverines.


Harbaugh said junior Brandon Watson and freshmen David Long and Levert Hill will be called on to help make up for the loss. He also said the Michigan coaching staff will look into the possibility of a medical hardship ruling, which could grant Clark a sixth year of eligility.

Florida QB Del Rio 'doubtful' Saturday
September 26, 2016


GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) Florida quarterback Luke Del Rio is ''highly doubtful'' to play Saturday at Vanderbilt.


Coach Jim McElwain won't rule Del Rio out against the Commodores (2-2, 0-1 Southeastern Conference), saying ''I'm still not going to count him out.''


Del Rio injured his left knee against North Texas and sat out Saturday's 38-28 loss at Tennessee . Fifth-year senior Austin Appleby, a graduate transfer from Purdue, is expected to make his second straight start for the 23rd-ranked Gators (3-1, 1-1).


McElwain says Del Rio won't practice Monday but ''we'll try to ease him a little bit on Tuesday, keeping him involved in the game plan.'' Del Rio traveled to Knoxville, suited up and signaled in calls from the sideline. McElwain says Del Rio ''was really good for our team. ... He's a valuable piece of this.''

Badgers facing tough Big Ten stretch
September 25, 2016


EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) It's rare these days for a team to beat Michigan State so soundly that the game is essentially over midway through the fourth quarter.


Alabama did it in last year's national semifinals, and now Wisconsin has a blowout win over the Spartans on its resume - the latest sign that the Badgers should be treated as contenders in what could be a loaded Big Ten.


Wisconsin forced four turnovers and held Michigan State to 75 yards rushing in Saturday's 30-6 win over the Spartans. The Badgers moved up three spots to No. 8 in the AP poll Sunday, and Michigan State fell nine spots to No. 17.


Wisconsin (4-0, 1-0) has not allowed more than 17 points in a game this season, and the Badgers have allowed only three offensive touchdowns.


''Well, I've been lucky. I've been around some really good defenses,'' coach Paul Chryst said after Saturday's win. ''Today, it was big and I thought again it was a good plan by our defensive coaches because our kids understood it and they were able to execute it and they were opportunistic.''


If Michigan State sometimes seems overlooked in a league that includes Urban Meyer and Jim Harbaugh, one can only imagine how Wisconsin feels. The Badgers won three straight Big Ten titles from 2010-2012, but they've made only one appearance in the conference title game since - a 59-0 loss to eventual national champion Ohio State in 2014.


With Ohio State, Michigan and Michigan State in the East Division, it's hard for teams on the other side of the league to earn too much of the spotlight, but Wisconsin has an opportunity to change that. The Badgers already have beaten LSU and Michigan State, and their next two games are at No. 4 Michigan and against No. 2 Ohio State.


If they win either of those two, they'd have another significant victory that could serve them well with the playoff committee if they were to win the league championship.


''Every time I get on ESPN there's all this talk about this stretch of three games,'' defensive end Alec James said, after Wisconsin won the first one with ease.


Michigan State rushed for 260 yards the previous weekend at Notre Dame, but Wisconsin's front contained running back LJ Scott and pressured quarterback Tyler O'Connor. Michigan State's low rushing total was partially because of sacks and a mishap on a punt, but the Spartans couldn't establish any consistency moving the ball.


With Michigan State needing more from the passing game, O'Connor was intercepted three times.


''When some things, you know, opportunities presented themselves, turnovers we were able to capitalize on,'' Chryst said. ''Obviously we think it's a really good Michigan State team and a good offense, and we respect their running game, but guys were doing their assignments and they were finishing and that certainly gave us a chance.''


A season after leading the nation by allowing 13.7 points per game, the Badgers are allowing an average of 11.8. On Saturday, the Wisconsin defense gave up only two field goals and scored a touchdown itself on Leo Musso's 66-yard fumble return.


The Badgers are now 12th in the nation in total defense and 10th against the run, and if anyone doubted the legitimacy of this team's impressive start, well, Michigan State can certainly vouch for it.


''Wisconsin played good, fundamental football. They come into the football game, we talked about that all week, how they've got both hands on you up front,'' Spartans coach Mark Dantonio said. ''They know what they're doing, and they do it very, very well. They have a system, and they do it very well.''

Trubisky, Finley total 16 TDs, 0 INTs
September 26, 2016


Two of the nation's most efficient quarterbacks play in the same conference for schools less than an hour apart in the same state.


North Carolina's Mitch Trubisky and North Carolina State's Ryan Finley have combined to throw 16 touchdown passes with no interceptions, and their completion rate is 75 percent (163 of 217).


Trubisky has been especially sharp. He's the only quarterback in the country with more than 100 pass attempts who hasn't been intercepted, and only 15 QBs have thrown more than his 10 TD passes.


The first-year starter threw for career highs of 453 yards and five touchdowns in a 37-36 win over Pittsburgh on Saturday. Trubisky set the school record with 30 consecutive pass completions over the last two games, hitting his last 18 in a row last week against James Madison and 12 straight in the first half against Pitt.


He's 102 of 137, and his interception-free streak stands at a school-record 202 pass attempts.


Finley, a transfer from Boise State, is 61 of 80 with six TD passes. He was 24 of 28 for 281 yards and three touchdowns in a 49-22 win over Old Dominion.


Other notable statistical feats:


UNDISPUTED LEADER


Michigan has long been the all-time leader in wins. Now, in a statistic first reported by the Detroit Free Press, the Wolverines have taken over Notre Dame's spot as the program with the best winning percentage.


The Wolverines' 4-0 start gives them a 929-331-36 record. That's a win percentage of .7307.


Notre Dame, at 1-3, is 893-316-42 - a win percentage of .7306.


DALVIN'S BIG DAY


Florida State's Dalvin Book scored a 75-yard touchdown the first time he touched the ball against USF. He was just getting started.


Cook ran for a career-high 267 yards and established the season's national high with 329 all-purpose yards. His rushing total was second-best this season behind Donnel Pumphrey's 281-yard outing for San Diego State against California.

GETTING HIS KICKS


Auburn's Daniel Carlson kicked a school record-tying six field goals in the18-13 win over LSU, the most for the Tigers since Al Del Greco kicked six against Kentucky in 1982. Carlson is now 12 for 12 for the season.


Carlson's six field goals matched the national season high set by Florida State's Ricky Aguayo against Mississippi.


CARRYING THE LOAD


Tulsa's D'Angelo Brewer carried 46 times - seven more than any back in the nation this season - while piling up a career-high 252 yards in his team's 48-41 double-overtime victory over Fresno State. Tulsa came back from a 31-point deficit in the second quarter to win.


Brewer's 46 runs tied the school record set by Ron Jackson in 1991, and his 252 yards were most by a Tulsa back since 2008.


BIG NUMBERS, QUICKLY


Memphis' Riley Ferguson passed for 359 yards and six touchdowns and also ran for another score to spark a 77-3 win over Bowling Green. Oh, and Ferguson only played the first half.

No. 8 Wisconsin dials up pass rush, Michigan showdown next
September 26, 2016


MADISON, Wis. (AP) No. 8 Wisconsin has developed quite the pass rush.


Michigan State got overwhelmed last week in a 30-6 loss to Wisconsin. Now the Badgers (4-0, 1-0 Big Ten) get to go after another tough opponent on Saturday at No. 4 Michigan.


''A lot of people want to overlook Wisconsin,'' outside linebacker Vince Biegel said. ''We're going to continue to have the same approach. It doesn't matter what people are saying about us.''


Wisconsin's defense held Michigan State without a touchdown, just the second time the Spartans have been kept out of the end zone at home since 2000. The pass rush recorded four sacks and seven hurries, and the defense had three interceptions.


It was quite a performance by the Badgers and defensive coordinator Justin Wilcox, who took over after Dave Aranda left after the 2015 season for the same job at LSU.


''We have a lot of trust in them. That's probably the thing that helped us out the most on offense,'' quarterback Alex Hornibrook said Monday. ''When we didn't have a good drive, they'd get a turnover and give us the ball right back. You love that about a defense.''


The Badgers have surrendered just three offensive touchdowns through four games and rank seventh in scoring defense at 11.8 points per game.


''When we're playing good defense it's because every guy is doing their one-eleventh, they're doing their job,'' coach Paul Chryst said. ''It's as simple as that. The guys are doing their job.''


Biegel is acknowledged as the heart of the defense, but fellow outside linebacker T.J. Watt is making a strong impression after beginning his collegiate career as a tight end.


Against Michigan State, Watt recorded career highs of 3 1/2 tackles for loss and 2 1/2 sacks. Watt also had a couple quarterback hurries and broke up a pass. He was named the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Week.


''Defensively as a whole we're still improving, we're still scratching the surface and the sky's the limit,'' said Watt, who leads the Big Ten with 4 1/2 sacks for the season.


NOTES: Hornibrook was named Big Ten Freshman of the Week. He was 16 of 26 for 195 yards and one touchdown with one interception against the Spartans, making his first career start. ... OL Jon Dietzen (right leg), K Rafael Gaglianone (back) and RB Bradrick Shaw (right shoulder) are listed as questionable for the Michigan game.

NCAAF opening line report: Week 5 features some of the best matchups of the year


Louisville is the darling of the college football world right now, averaging a whopping 63.5 points per game, including an absolute destruction of then No. 2 Florida State, 62-20 in Week 3.


A huge clash in the Atlantic Coast Conference highlights Week 5 of the college football season. We talk about the opening lines on four big games this week with John Lester, senior lines manager for offshore sportsbook Bookmaker.eu.


No. 4 Louisville Cardinals at No. 3 Clemson Tigers (-2)


Louisville is the darling of the college football world right now, averaging a whopping 63.5 points per game, including an absolute destruction of then No. 2 Florida State, 62-20 in Week 3 as a 2-point home favorite. On Saturday, the Cardinals (4-0 SU, 3-0-1 ATS) wiped out Marshall 59-28 to push as a massive 31-point chalk.


Clemson, which lost to Alabama in a thrilling national championship game last season, is also out of the gate 4-0 SU (2-2 ATS). The Tigers topped host Georgia Tech 26-7 laying 10.5 points on Thursday night, meaning they’ll have a little extra rest for this Saturday night prime-time matchup. Last year, Clemson edged Louisville 20-17 as a 5-point road fave.


“What a great matchup for the books and the bettors,” Lester said. “Perception is certainly with Lamar Jackson and Louisville these days, but these two teams are neck-and-neck in our power ratings. We made Clemson a slight favorite, and we’ll see where the action takes it.”


No. 6 Stanford Cardinal at No. 9 Washington Huskies (-3)


Like the ACC, the Pac-12 has its own big matchup of undefeateds, though both Stanford and Washington barely remained in that category in Week 4.


The Cardinal trailed 13-9 in the waning minutes at UCLA on Saturday night, then got a touchdown with just 24 seconds left to go up 16-13 as 3-point favorites. They then got a scoop-and-score fumble as time ran out for a 22-13 win and arguably one of the all-time bad beats for Bruins bettors.


Washington (4-0 SU and ATS) was also pressed Saturday night, needing overtime to take out host Arizona 35-28 giving 16 points.


“Another matchup with two very evenly-matched teams,” Lester said. “Stanford has typically struggled defending these types of offenses, and the home-field edge the Huskies hold is also a significant factor when setting this line.”


No. 8 Wisconsin Badgers at No. 5 Michigan Wolverines (-10.5)


And the Big Ten has got a battle of unbeatens this week, too. Wisconsin (4-0 SU, 3-1 ATS) is in the midst of a wicked three-game stretch – at Michigan State this past Saturday, now Michigan, then a bye before hosting Ohio State. But the Badgers got it started strong with a 30-6 whipping of the Spartans as a 3.5-point road ‘dog.


Meanwhile, Michigan (4-0 SU, 3-1 ATS) has put up at least 45 points in all four of its games, including Saturday’s 49-10 rout of Penn State as a hefty 15.5-point home chalk. And the Wolverines will be healthy favorites this week, too.


“Wisconsin was impressive on the road last week, but going to the Big House is a whole new ballgame,” Lester said. “This is going to be a great gauge to see how good this Michigan team really is. We went fairly high on the line and won’t be surprised if some sharps see value with the Badgers.”


No. 11 Tennessee Volunteers at No. 20 Georgia Bulldogs (+3)


Tennessee had one of the more stirring comebacks of the season Saturday, climbing out of a 21-0 second-quarter hole against visiting Florida. The Vols (4-0 SU, 2-2 ATS) scored 38 unanswered points en route to a 38-28 win and cover as 4-point faves.


On the flip side, Georgia (3-1 ATS, 1-3 SU) comes in off a blowout loss, 45-14 at Mississippi getting 7 points Saturday.


“The Vols have been playing with fire all season, and now we’ll get to see them in their first road test,” Lester said, noting Tennessee needed overtime in its opener against Appalachian State and struggled with Ohio in Week 3. “Georgia hasn’t been overly impressive either. The public will look at this and scratch their heads, so we’re expecting a lot of square action on the road chalk.”

Sharps are keeping a close eye on these Week 5 college football games

UNLV will be in a foul mood after losing 33-30 as a 14.5-point home favorite last week against Idaho.


Spread to bet now


Fresno State at UNLV (-10)


This line opened -7 and has been quickly bet up to -10 and -10.5, and it will likely continue to rise higher this week. UNLV will be in a foul mood after losing 33-30 as a 14.5-point home favorite last week. The Rebels held a 539-378 total yards edge, but suffered from a 2-1 turnover deficit which included an Idaho interception touchdown return.


Fresno State is 1-3 SU this season, losing their two road games by 33 and 35 point margins. Fresno also lost a high-scoring 48-41 game at home versus Tulsa last week which might leave the Bulldogs a bit drained this week. Fresno State has been out-scored 13.5-47.5 on the road this season while being out-gained 264-512 in total yards (4.3-7.0 yards per play).


Spread to wait on


UL Monroe (+32.5) at Auburn


This line opened +33.5 and has dropped a point, however the public will likely jump on board and push this line higher later this week, especially after watching Auburn defeat LSU last Saturday. However, this is a major flat spot for the Tigers. They go from being a 3-point home underdog to a huge home favorite, plus Auburn has a major look-ahead game on deck at Mississippi State next week.


Auburn has scored 18 points or less in three of their four games this season. UL Monroe is only 1-2 SU, but they are 3-0 ATS as they've been competitive. The Warhawks also have the advantage of a bye week entering this game with extra time to rest and prepare as a big underdog. UL Monroe has averaged 6.0 yards per play (versus opponents that allow just 5.9 yppl), while the Warhawks defense has permitted only 5.8 yards per play (versus opponents that average 6.1 yppl).


Total to watch


North Carolina at Florida State (69)


Florida State bounced back from their 63-20 loss at Louisville with a solid 55-35 win at South Florida last week. The Seminoles have a powerful offense that has scored at least 45 points or more in three of their four games this season. However, their defense has been suspect, allowing 34 points or more in three of their four games. Overall, the Seminoles' four games have averaged 78.0 total points this season.


North Carolina's offense started slowly against Georgia in the first game, but they have come alive since, scoring at least 37 points or more in their past three games. The Tar Heel's defense has struggled, allowing 28 points or more in three of their four games this year. Overall, North Carolina's four games have averaged 71.2 total points this season.

Texas Tech alloed 562 Y in last two games, 312+ PY in all three games; Tech won its last eight games with Kansas (1-2-1 vs spread last four). Jayhawks lost last four visits here, with three of four by 13 or less points. Red Raiders are 4-1 in last five games as a home favorite.


UConn (+10) was +4 in turnovers, upset Houston 20-17 LY– total yardage in game was 318-315 Houston. Huskies are 2-2 this year, with all four games decided by seven or less points- they’re 6-16 in last 22 games as a road underdog. Houston beat Oklahoma at home, won 40-16 at Cincinnati; they’re 5-9 vs spread in their last 14 games as a home favorite. Game opened at -23, has been bet up to -28, so not lot of support for UConn in this game.


Friday’s games


BYU lost its last three games by total of 7 points; their four games this year were decided by total of 10 points. Cougars lost their only home game to UCLA; they’re 19-14 as home favorite the last 6+ years- as an independent, their schedule is too tough early in the year, too easy later on. Toledo is 16-6 in last 22 tries as road dogs, which is why former coach Campbell moved up to Iowa St. Rockets have played stiffs so far, move way up in class here.


Stanford beat USC/UCLA last two weeks, holding them to total of 23 points; Cardinal won seven of last eight with Washington, four of last five here; underdogs covered three of last four games in series. Huskies were held to 179-231 TY last two meetings. U-Dub is trying to go 5-0 for first time since 1992; they needed OT to win at Arizona LW; Huskies are +9 in turnovers in 4-0 start, 14-8 as a home favorite last 5+ years. Stanford is 4-1-1 as a road underdog.

UConn at Houston
September 27, 2016


While there is a Big XII game on the schedule, there is certainly more intrigue in Thursday’s ESPN game between Connecticut and Houston. The Cougars have the country’s attention as a College Football Playoff candidate outside of the Power 5 conferences and this week’s Thursday night game is a matchup vs. Connecticut, the only team that beat Houston last season.


Match-up: Connecticut Huskies at Houston Cougars
Venue: TDECU Stadium in Houston, Texas
Time/TV: Thursday, Sep. 29, 8:00 PM ET
Line: Houston -28, Over/Under 50
Last Meeting: 2015, at Connecticut (+10) 20, Houston 17


Tom Herman has coached Houston in 18 games with only one loss. That loss came last November at Connecticut as a 10-0 Houston squad fell short 20-17 as a road favorite. The caveat is that Greg Ward, Jr. did not start at quarterback with an injured ankle. He did appear for the final series after his replacement Kyle Postma was also injured late in the game, eventually throwing an interception on Houston’s final drive. The statistics in that game were quite even, but Houston had four turnovers alhtough the Cougars also did score on a kickoff return touchdown.


Houston has opened the 2016 season at 4-0 with the big opening week statement win over Oklahoma. The Cougars also won in primetime two weeks ago at Cincinnati in a much closer game than the 40-16 final indicated. This will be the first true FBS home game for the Cougars as the opener was at NRG Stadium and the home opener was a 42-0 win over FCS Lamar. Houston is currently ranked #6 in the AP Poll and Herman is certainly garnering attention as a candidate for the recent opening at LSU, though those conversations seem unlikely to take place at this point in the season.


Connecticut is 2-2 this season coming off a solid 6-7 season that featured a bowl bid last season, the program’s first postseason trip since 2010. The Huskies are 0-1 in AAC play losing at Navy, but they split two games vs. ACC competition the past two weeks at home, beating Virginia but losing to Syracuse. All four games for Connecticut have been single-score games with lower scoring as the season high output for the Huskies is just 24 points, actually a touchdown increase over last season’s scoring average of just 17.2 points per game.


Connecticut has been out-gained in all three of its FBS games as the Huskies had a 104 yard deficit vs. Virginia despite the win. Bob Diaco is known as a defensive coach as Notre Dame’s former defensive coordinator now in his third season in Storrs. This season’s defense has allowed 6.1 yards per play this season, but only 3.8 yards per rush while holding opposing quarterbacks below 60 percent completions. It was the defense that keyed the home upset in this matchup last season, but Connecticut is just 2-9 S/U on the road since Diaco took over the program.


Houston’s offense has deserved attention with almost 45 points per game this season, but that average is a bit inflated with 106 points vs. FCS Lamar and FBS bottom-feeder Texas State. Three touchdowns also came on defense and special teams in the notable wins over Oklahoma and Cincinnati to boost the numbers as well.


It has really been Houston’s defense that has catapulted the program into the national spotlight, allowing just 229 yards per game this season with incredible numbers against the run, allowing just 1.5 yards per carry and 37 rushing yards per game. Run defense was a strong area for the defense last season as well, finishing the season allowing just 3.2 yards per carry allowed and more impressively not once allowing a team over a 3.9 yards per rush average for the game in 14 games that included matchups vs. strong rushing teams like Louisville, Cincinnati, Navy, and Florida State.


With the running game likely offering little support, Connecticut will need to make some plays in the air, though last season the Huskies had just one 300 yards passing game all season. At quarterback for Connecticut is junior Bryant Shirreffs, who has modest numbers this season, posting a very similar pace to last season’s production figures. He has completed nearly 67 percent of his passes after barely topping 60 percent last season, but he also has as many interceptions as touchdowns through four weeks.


Houston quarterback Greg Ward Jr. has won 17 straight games that he has started and he’ll certainly go down as an all-time great at Houston, joining Andre Ware, David Klingler, Kevin Kolb, and Case Keenum. His statistics are modest this season and he didn’t play in the win over Lamar as prospects as a Heisman Trophy candidate are minimal even with some early season attention. With just five touchdowns passes, he won’t pass the records of those highly prolific passers, but he is leading a team that can have a historic season on the national stage, with avenging last season’s only loss the next step.

Historical Trends: Connecticut is 8-25 S/U and 10-22-1 ATS in road games since 2010, including 2-9 S/U and 3-8 ATS under Diaco since 2014. Connecticut is just 7-18 ATS as a road underdog since 2010 though going back to 2000 the Huskies are 13-8 ATS as an underdog of 20 or more points, though three of those four covers came at home.


Houston has thrived in the road underdog role with incredible recent ATS results but at home the numbers are modest, going 20-7 S/U and just 14-17 ATS at home since 2012. Houston is 9-0 S/U under Herman at home but just 4-5 ATS. Houston is also just 5-10 ATS as a home favorite since 2014, suffering three S/U home favorite losses in the 2014 season under Tony Levine. Houston is 15-6 ATS as a favorite of 20 or more since 2009, though just 2-3 ATS under Herman in that heavy favorite role while going 0-3 ATS in Herman’s home games at that price.

Surprises spread across the Pac-12
September 27, 2016


PHOENIX (AP) The Pac-12, in some respects, has gone according to plan so far this season with No. 7 Stanford and No. 10 Washington leading the North Division.


For the most part, though, the conference has been filled with surprises through the first four weeks of the season. Colorado tied for the lead in the South Division and Southern California dead last? Yeah, those would have been hard to predict.


To get you caught up, here's a rundown in the Pac-12 so far:


---


BUFFALOES RISE: Colorado was picked to finish last in the Pac-12 South and coach Mike MacIntyre was expected to be on the hot seat if the Buffaloes lived down to those lowly expectations. Colorado has been far better than expected, starting with its convincing season-opening win over rival Colorado State and another blowout of Idaho State . The Buffaloes lost to No. 4 Michigan the third week, the kind of game that might have sent previous teams in Boulder reeling. Instead, Colorado bounced back last week with its biggest win since joining the Pac-12 in 2011, holding off Oregon 41-38 despite playing without senior quarterback Sefo Liufau due to an ankle injury. The victory left MacIntyre in tears and gave the Buffalos the big breakthrough they've been searching for.


USC'S FALL: Loaded with blue chip playmakers, the Trojans were expected to make a run at their first Pac-12 title since 2008. USC has been nowhere close to being what was expected. The Trojans opened the season with a blowout loss to top-ranked Alabama and followed a lopsided win over FCS Utah State with a 17-point loss to No. 7 Stanford. Needing a win last week to stay in the Pac-12 South race, USC stumbled again, blowing a 10-point lead in the fourth quarter to lose 31-27 to Utah. The loss dropped the Trojans to 1-3 for the first time since 2001 and left them searching for answers that may be tough to find. Despite all that talent on offense, USC is the worst-scoring team in the Pac-12 with 22 points per game.


SUN DEVILS ASCENDING: This season was expected to be a rebuilding one in the desert. Arizona State limped to a 6-7 finish last season and entered 2016 with no quarterback on the roster who had thrown a collegiate pass. The Sun Devils also had to rebuild a defense that was the nation's worst against the pass a year ago and were picked to finish fifth in the Pac-12 South in 2016. The Sun Devils have gotten off to slow starts and their defense has been shaky at times, but they keep finding ways to win, leaving them as one of four undefeated teams in the Pac-12. Arizona State had a late offensive burst to knock off FCS Northern Arizona in the season opener and last week exploded for 31 points in the fourth quarter to outlast California . Even with the schedule about to get more difficult, it will be hard to pick against the Sun Devils until someone actually beats them.


MORE ARIZONA INJURIES: OK, maybe this shouldn't come as much of a surprise. Arizona has been plagued with injuries to key players the past few seasons, but the odds - maybe karma? - seemed to be in favor of the Wildcats this year. Nope. Anu Solomon, who won a tight battle with Brandon Dawkins, lasted one game as Arizona's starting quarterback after injuring his left knee on a wet practice field. Workhorse running back Nick Wilson, who battled injuries last season, was injured against Hawaii two weeks ago and didn't play against Washington this past week. Arizona also played without three starters against the Huskies and lost freshman running back J.J. Taylor - the star against Hawaii - for the season with a broken ankle in the third quarter. All coach Rich Rodriguez could do after the game was shake his head and say: ''Unbelievable.''

Notre Dame vs. Syracuse from E. Rutherford, N.J. (ESPN, 12:00 p.m. ET)


So how many people had Syracuse entering October with a better overall record than Notre Dame? And how many had the Irish with three losses before the leaves have fully started to change? Well, after last weekend's loss at home to Duke, Notre Dame cannot overlook anybody. This line opened with the Irish favored by 13, but has quickly fallen to just 10. The public is loving the Orange, who enter 5-1 ATS in their past six neutral-site games. Syracuse is also 6-2 ATS in their past eight games against teams with a losing overall record, for which the Irish certainly qualify. Notre Dame is just 1-4 ATS in their past five non-conference tilts, and 2-8 ATS in their past 10 on fieldturf. They're also 3-7 ATS in their past 10 following a straight-up loss.

Miami-Florida at Georgia Tech (ESPN2, 12:00 p.m. ET)


Miami heads to Atlanta for their second road game of the season. They have had a couple of weeks to prepare for this game after their road trip two weeks ago to Appalachian State. Georgia Tech was tripped up at home against Clemson last Thursday and will also be well rested. The last time these teams met was a 38-21 win in Miami Nov. 21, 2015. The U is 5-1 ATS in its past six games overall, and 13-3 ATS in their past 16 following a straight up win by 20 or more points in their previous outing. Georgia Tech is just 2-5 ATS in the past seven home games, 2-10-1 ATS in the past 13 overall and 1-8 ATS in the past nine against a team with a winning overall record. The Ramblin' Wreck is also 0-4-1 ATS in the past five against ACC foes.


Virginia at Duke (ACC Network, 12:30 p.m. ET)


After Duke lost back-to-back games to Wake Forest and Northwestern people were ready to write off the Blue Devils for this season, as they thought it was the end of Duke's miraculous bowl run. But they went to South Bend and pulled off the biggest win in school history, topping Notre Dame 38-35 for their first win and cover against an FBS school this season. Duke has been having some issues on the defensive side of the ball, and their offensive line hasn't been a strong suit. They're still just 1-5 ATS in the past six ACC games. Virginia picked up its first win against Central Michigan, 49-35 in Charlottesville last weekend. The Cavaliers are 2-0-1 ATS over the past three games, and the 'over' was the first of the season in four tries. The home team is 5-1 ATS in the past six meetings in this series, with the Cavaliers 2-7 ATS in the past nine meetings, including 0-4 ATS in their past four trips to Wallace Wade Stadium in Durham.


Buffalo at Boston College (ACC Network, 1:00 p.m.)


Buffalo hits the road for Chestnut Hill looking to build upon its exciting win over Army in overtime last weekend. It was Army's first cover, as they had lost their first two outings against FCS Albany and at Nevada. The Bulls are just 1-4 ATS in their past five road games, and the cover against Army was their first in the past six overall. Boston College is just 12-27 ATS in their past 39 games, although they did cover against UMass in their most recent foray outside of the conference, and they're 3-1-1 ATS in their past five against non-conference foes.


North Carolina at Florida State (ESPN, 3:30 p.m.)


In the ACC undercard leading up to Louisville-Clemson, it's the Tar Heels invading Tallahassee to tangle with the Seminoles in an intriguing cross-division matchup. North Carolina enters as 11-point underdogs, and if they're going to win outright they will need to find a way to step up on defense and find a way to stop the run. Despite their struggles on the defensive end, UNC is 8-3 ATS in their past 11 against teams with a winning overall record, and 5-2 ATS in their past seven road outings against a team with a winning home mark. FSU bounced back with a resounding win at South Florida after getting trucked at Louisville two weeks ago. The 'Noles enter 5-1 ATS in their past six at Doak Campbell Stadium in Tallahassee. The road team is 5-0 ATS in the past five meetings in this series, with the underdog going 5-1 ATS in the past six. UNC is 5-1 ATS in its past six trips to Tally, too.


Wake Forest at North Carolina State (ACC Network, 3:30 p.m.)


Wake Forest ran its record to 4-0 with a win at Indiana last weekend, picking up a victory despite the fact QB Kendall Hinton and RB Cade Carney were sidelined. Hinton will remains sidelined for at least a couple more weeks, but Carney is questionable with his knee issue. Wake has picked up the pace offensively, though, despite the losses to key personnel. They averaged 15.5 points per game (PPG) in the first two games, but they have averaged 35.5 PPG over the past two outings. N.C. State has won and covered both of their home games this season, averaging 48.5 PPG at Carter-Finley Stadium in two outings against William & Mary and Old Dominion. However, the Wolfpack are 1-4 ATS in their past five ACC games, and 0-5 ATS in their past five against teams with a winning overall record. The 'over' is 2-0-1 this season for N.C. State. The home team is an impressive 16-5 ATS in the past 21 meetings in this series, with the Deacs 0-4 ATS in their past four trips to Raleigh.


Marshall at Pittsburgh (ACC Network, 7:30 p.m.)


Marshall took it on the chin against Louisville at home, now they try to rebound against another ACC team which suffered an awful last-second loss at North Carolina last week. The Thundering Herd pushed as 31-point underdogs against the Cardinals, and they're 3-0-1 ATS in their past four against ACC teams. They're also 3-1-1 ATS in their past five non-conference games. Pitt is 1-8 ATS in their past nine home games, and 1-5 ATS in their past six overall, although late lone cover came in Chapel Hill. The 'over' is 3-0 in the past three for Pittsburgh, as they have averaged 38.7 PPG while allowing 40.3 PPG.


Louisville at Clemson (ABC, 8:00 p.m.)


In a game with huge playoff, potential national championship and even Heisman Trophy implications, Lamar Jackson and Louisville square off with DeShaun Watson and Clemson in Death Valley in a marquee game in the ACC. Louisville has scored 59 or more points in each of their four games this season, including 62.5 PPG in two conference outings. That includes a 63-20 thrashing of Florida State. The 'over' is a perfect 4-0 for the Cardinals, and they are 3-0-1 ATS in four outings this season. Clemson started off a bit sluggishly, nearly losing it all in a home outing against Troy Sept. 10. Head coach Dabo Swinney helped the Tigers right the ship, pounding FCS South Carolina State 59-0 to gain confidence for the offense, and the defense stepped up with a huge effort at Georgia Tech last Thursday, 26-7. While the 'over' is 4-0 for the Cards, the 'under' is 4-0 for the Tigers. The total is set at 67 1/2, and the Tigers are short 'dogs in their own barn. Can Louisville do it again?

Kansas at Texas Tech (Thu. FS1, 8:30 p.m. ET)


The Jayhawks were routed in Memphis two weeks ago, now head into conference play well rested but with a lot of question marks. The Jayhawks are averaging 14.0 PPG while allowing 40.0 PPG in two outings against FBS teams this season, going 0-2 ATS with two 'under' results in those games. A defense that gives up so many points in bad news against a Texas Tech offense which has scored 55 or more points in each of its three games this season. The defensive numbers of KU, and the offensive numbers of TTU make the Red Raiders look like a good pick as four-touchdown favorites. However, the Red Raiders will have to be a lot better defensively, as they have given up 113 points in the past two outings.


Baylor at Iowa State (FS1, 12:00 p.m.)


Baylor finally picked up its first cover of the season, and they picked a good time for it in a 35-24 win against Oklahoma State last weekend. Iowa State also earned its first victory of the season a week ago, taking out frustrations on visiting San Jose State. The Bears are just 2-5 ATS in the past seven Big 12 battles, but one of those covers came last week. They're 5-2-1 ATS in their past eight road games against a team with a losing home record. For Iowa State, they're 5-2 ATS in their past seven conference tilts, but just 6-17-3 ATS in the past 26 against teams with an overall winning record. They're also 1-5-2 ATS in the past eight home games against teams with a winning road mark. Baylor is 1-4-1 ATS in their past six trips to Ames, while the home team is 10-2-1 ATS in the past 13 meetings. The total is set at 60, and the 'under' is 4-0 for Baylor in four games this season.


Texas at Oklahoma State (ABC, 12:00 p.m. ET)


The Big 12 might not have much of a chance at a playoff spot, but Texas and Oklahoma State will battle in a very important conference game in Stillwater with plenty on the line. The Longhorns enter as a field-goal underdog, looking to turn around a poor streak against the number on the road. They're 1-5 ATS over their past six road games. OK State is 0-4 ATS in their past four inside the Big 12, and 2-6 ATS in their past eight overall. The Longhorns have covered their past four trips to Stillwater, and the road team is an impressive 9-0 ATS in the past nine meetings. The favorite is also 14-3 ATS in the past 17 in this series.


Kansas State at West Virginia (ESPNU, 3:30 p.m. ET)


K-State hits the road for Morgantown in a game with some potential. The Mountaineers are favored by 3 1/2, as they look to add to K-State's road woes. The Wildcats lost and failed to cover at Stanford Sept. 2, and they're 1-4 ATS in their past five road games dating back to last season. West Virginia hasn't been much better lately, going 1-4 ATS in their past five games overall, and 8-17 ATS in their past 25 conference tilts. The Mountaineers have also failed to cover in six straight against teams with an overall winning record, and they're 6-20 ATS in their past 26 home games against teams with a winning road mark. K-State has covered four straight meetings, while the 'under' is 4-0 in the past four. The under is also 14-3 in West Va.'s past 17 conference tilts, and 11-3 in their past 14 at home.


Oklahoma at Texas Christian (FOX, 5:00 p.m. ET)


The Sooners head to Fort Worth, opening as low as a pick 'em and ballooning to as much as Oklahoma - 3 1/2. The Sooners have struggled outside of the conference, losing outright to Houston and Ohio State, but they're 6-1 ATS in their past seven conference tilts dating back to last season. They're also 25-11 ATS in their past 36 following a straight-up loss, and they have had two weeks to prepare for this game. TCU is happy to turn the calendar to October, as they're 7-1 ATS in their past eight games in the month. They're also 14-5 ATS in their past 19 at home, while going 36-17 ATS in their past 53 home games against teams with a losing road mark. The underdog is 6-2 in the past eight meetings in this series, with the Sooners going 2-6 ATS over the past eight. The 'over' is 8-3 in Oklahoma's past 11, and 11-5-1 in their past 17 on the road.

Stanford at Washington (Fri. - ESPN, 9:00 p.m. ET)


It's a battle of Top 10 teams when Stanford pays a visit to Seattle Friday night. Head coach Chris Petersen has the Huskies back to the pinnacle in the Pac-12, but can they take a step further with a big win over the Cardinal? Heisman hopeful Christian McCaffrey looks to keep Stanford on track for its first playoff berth. He ranks second in the country with 145.3 rushing yards per game, but might need a much bigger performance against Washington if his team is to remain unbeaten. The Cardinals stayed unbeaten against the number, but it was a bad beat of epic proportions for UCLA bettors last week. A strip sack, fumble, scoop and score with zeroes on the clock helped Stanford to a miraculous cover. The Cardinal are 5-0 ATS in their past five Friday appearances, 6-1 ATS in their past seven road games against a team with a winning home record and 38-16-1 ATS in their past 55 conference battles.Washington is 5-2 ATS in their past seven overall, but 2-6 ATS in their past eight at home against a team with a winning road record. In this series the home team is 4-1 ATS in the past five, and the under is 5-1 in the past six in Seattle and 9-3 in the past 12 meetings overall. The Huskies are favored by three with a total of 44.


Oregon State at Colorado (Pac-12 Network, 2:30 p.m.)


Is Colorado back? Well, they won at Oregon to move to 3-1 SU and 4-0 ATS on the season, serving notice to the rest of the conference that the Buffaloes are no longer pushovers. Now, they need to win a game they're supposed to against visiting Oregon State. The Buffaloes opened as a 16 1/2 point favorite and it has been bet up to 18 1/2. Oregon State is just 3-13 ATS in the past 16 inside the Pac-12, and 4-10 ATS in their past 14 against teams with a winning record. The Buffaloes are 5-2 ATS in their past seven inside the league, and 5-2 ATS in their past seven against losing teams. However, they're just 2-6 ATS in their past eight at Folsom against teams with a losing road record.


Utah at California (Pac-12 Network, 6:00 p.m. ET)


The Utes moved to 4-0 with a miraculous last-second victory against USC last weekend. Now, they hit the road and look to remain unblemished at Cal. The Bears are favored by two points, which might appear to be a rather curious line given the fact the Golden Bears are 1-6 ATS in their past seven Pac-12 battles. They're also just 8-20 ATS in their past 28 home games. Utah is 10-3 ATS in their past 13 road games, but 2-5 ATS inside the past seven conference tilts. Bettors might lean to the 'over', too. The over is 6-0 in Utah's past six on the road, and 7-1 ATS in their past eight following a straight up win. The over is also 6-0 in Cal's past six overall, and 5-0 in their past five contests against teams with an overall winning mark. The under is 9-3 in Cal's past 12 inside the conference, however.


Arizona State at Southern California (FOX, 8:30 p.m.)


Two teams going in opposite directions hook up at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum Saturday night, as Arizona State heads in 4-0 SU and 3-1 ATS, while USC enters 1-3 SU and 1-3 ATS. So naturally the Trojans opened as eight-point favorites and have been bet up into the double digits, right? The Sun Devils have covered seven of their past eight overall, and they're 7-1 ATS in their past eight against teams with a losing overall record. They're also 4-0 ATS in their past four conference tilts. Of course they shouldn't have covered last week, but a kickoff return for touchdown on an onside kick helped them to the miraculous backdoor cover. Arizona State has struggled against the number on the road, going 2-7 ATS in their past nine away from the desert. USC is 1-4 ATS in their past five against teams with a inning record, and 1-5 ATS in their past six overall. They're also 1-6 ATS in their past seven inside the league. The Sun Devils have dominated this series against the number, going 4-1 ATS in their past five trips to USC, and 6-2 ATS in the past eight meetings overall.


Oregon at Washington State (Pac-12 Network, 9:30 p.m.)


Two of the most disappointing teams in the Pac-12 do battle on the Palouse as the Ducks invade Pullman to square off with the Cougars. Oregon enters as slight road favorites at -1 1/2, looking to avoid a three-game losing streak. Oregon lost to WaZu last season in overtime, snapping an eight-game win streak against the Cougs. The last time the Ducks had a losing streak to a Pacific Northwest school from the Pac-12 was back in 2006-07. Oregon enters 22-5-1 ATS in their past 28 road games, but these Ducks are a shell of their former selves. They're 0-5-1 ATS over their past six games, and that trend paints a more accurate picture. The Cougs are short 'dogs at home, a place they're 6-1 ATS over the past seven. They're also 11-2 ATS in their past 13 games overall. In this series Oregon has failed to cover in six in a row, and they're 1-5 ATS in their past six at Pullman. The over is 4-1 in the past five meetings, and 5-2 in the past seven meetings at Washington State.


Arizona at UCLA (ESPN, 10:30 p.m.)


Arizona came oh so close to stunning Washington in the desert last weekend, but they were unable to finish off the upset in overtime, falling 35-28. The Wildcats have re-discovered their offense after a slow start, averaging 37.5 PPG over the past tow outings. Of course their defense has allowed more points than the previous weekend in each of the past three affairs. UCLA was winning and covering against Stanford for nearly the entire game last week, but the Bruins blew it in the fourth quarter and allowed Stanford to steal one. Now, Arizona and UCLA battle in what amounts to an elimination game, as a second conference loss this early likely means no chance at a trip to the Pac-12 championship game. Arizona is 1-4 ATS in their past five road games, and 1-5 ATS in the past six overall. UCLA is 0-4 ATS in the past four at home, and 0-6 ATS in their past is overall. In this series the favorite is 8-1 ATS in the past nine, with the home team 9-4 ATS in the past 13. The Wildcats have failed to cover in four straight meetings. UCLA is a 13 1/2-point favorite as of Wednesday morning.
