College Football Parlay Predictions, Odds Week 13: Will Injuries Lower Colorado’s Offensive Ceiling?

The once high-flying Colorado Buffaloes could be limited in Week 13. We look at that and more in our Week 13 college football parlay picks.

We've scanned the markets to find a three-leg college football parlay that presents good value in Week 13 with our latest college football parlay predictions based on the best NCAAF odds.

We nearly hit our +470 parlay in Week 12, as two of the three legs came through. However, we stumbled when Washington outright defeated Oregon State.

We're choosing a slightly more conservative parlay this week with +424 odds, selecting an alternate total and a slightly inflated team total.

To accompany our college football predictions for Week 13, here are our best college football parlay predictions (odds via our best college football betting sites; pick confidence is based on a 1-to-5-star scale).

College football parlay Week 13

Boston College +9 vs. Miami (-110 via bet365) ⭐⭐⭐

Miami threw for over 300 yards, ran for 6.1 yards per rush, and won the turnover battle, but the team still lost at home 38-31 to Louisville in Week 12.

The Hurricanes have now lost three consecutive games. They bring their 1-3 road record (the school's only road win is against Temple) into a cold-weather contest against Boston College, a squad that almost knocked off undefeated Florida State (it lost 31-29) the last time it received a visit from a Florida team. To say that the Hurricanes are in a letdown spot after missing a chance to ruin Louisville's College Football Playoff hopes is an understatement.

Boston College's offense entered last week ranked inside the top 50 in rush success and line yards, and in the top 40 in havoc and quality drives. The Eagles should be able to keep Miami's powerful offense off the field through their run game. And while Boston College is just 4-8 against the spread as a home favorite since the start of the 2020 season, it's a profitable 7-5 ATS as a home underdog during that span.

Most of our best sportsbooks are offering the Eagles as +8.5 point underdogs, which is one of the most significant reasons bet365 is our go-to shop for this parlay.

Penn State-Michigan State Under 44.5 (-145 via bet365) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

While undefeated Michigan and Ohio State duke it out for an appearance in the Big Ten Championship Game, Penn State is again left out with little that's impressive from a 9-2 record.

The Nittany Lions' lone win against a team ranked in the top 35 of SP+ is against Iowa, which sits in the bottom 10 in the country in scoring. Michigan State is the only Big Ten team that ranks worse at 17.4 points per game, and this play is also a fade of Penn State quarterback Drew Allar on the road.

Allar has completed 66.3% of his pass attempts with a 15:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio in Happy Valley while averaging 6.7 yards per attempt. But his completion percentage drops to 54.2% on the road, and he's thrown just six touchdowns with an average of 5.8 yards per attempt. Additionally, his passer rating at home is 149.0 compared to 117.1 on the road. 

Michigan State has won two of its last three games, and it held Ohio State to 38 total points during the team's only loss throughout that span. However, the Spartans ran for just 72 yards on 34 carries during their Week 12 road win at Indiana.

In addition, Michigan State may be without leading rusher Nathan Carter, who didn't return after suffering an injury in the third quarter during Week 12. The Spartans will also be missing starting center Nick Samac, who was carted off with a leg injury last week. Considering Spartans quarterback Katin Houser's career-best passing mark is 245 yards, we don't see him doing enough through the air to consistently move the football against a Nittany Lions defense that's held four opponents to seven or fewer points.

Colorado team total Under 16.5 points vs. Utah (-160 via bet365) ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Colorado's shot at bowl eligibility went up in smoke during an embarrassing 56-14 loss at Washington State in Week 12. The Buffaloes could only muster 14 points against a Cougars defense that entered last week ranked outside the top 90 in quality drives and rush success, and the unit was 118th in finishing drives.

Quarterback Shedeur Sanders also left the game with an arm injury. While his status for Week 13 is up in the air, we expect Coach Prime to sit his son out with nothing on the line, as the signal-caller has taken 52 sacks in 2023 and was pressured on countless other dropbacks.

Utah was torched for 42 points without three of its best defensive players against Arizona. Still, the loss is excusable, as the Wildcats are red-hot after winning five consecutive conference games for the first time in 25 years. The Utes should be able to dominate an inferior Colorado offensive line. Even if Sanders does play, Utah's defense entered Week 12 allowing fewer than seven yards per pass attempt, and it was in the top 15 in EPA/pass allowed and passing success rate.
