⬆️ Behren Morton Over 33.5 pass attempts (-115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
It's hard to deny the hot start Texas Tech QB Behren Morton has gotten off to for a team that's among the best College Football Playoff odds bets. With a $25 million roster surrounding him, Morton is tied for first in the country in touchdown passes (11). So if the Red Raiders are going to upset Utah in Salt Lake City, they'll need to lean heavily on their star QB.
The beauty of backing the Over on Morton's pass attempts rather than his passing yards (260.6) is that even if he's not successful against the Utes, it should help this Over. Texas Tech has yet to play a meaningful opponent, and Utah has the No. 7 ranked defense in SP+. There's a chance Joey McGuire's team could find itself in a hole early and need to go to the air frequently.
Last season, Morton threw 34-plus passes in eight of 12 games, and while he's only done it once this season, Texas Tech hasn't trailed or even played a close game. With this expected to be an early preview for the Big 12 Championship, I'm banking on Morton's arm being key, and if he hits the Over, a $10 bet pays an $8.70 profit.
⬇️ Cameron Dickey Under 64.5 rushing yards (-115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is a five-star play because bet365 is offering this total at 12 yards more than any of the other best sports betting sites. Considering they’re offering almost the identical price to FanDuel, which has this number set at 50.5, it’s not hard to see the value here.
Dickey has rushed for at least 65 yards in two games, so it’s not surprising to see his number where it is. However, against significantly inferior competition, he is averaging just 4.5 yards per carry, and against Kent State, he ran the ball eight times for just 10 yards.
The Utes enter this game allowing just 90.0 rushing yards per contest. Since the Red Raiders are a pass-first team, I don’t expect Dickey to break through against them. The price of -115 suggests a 53.49% chance this Under hits. A $10 bet would pay $8.70.

⬆️ Jordan Dwyer Over 79.5 receiving yards (-114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Most college football fans tuned into Bill Belichick's debut against TCU and expected North Carolina's defense to at least be competent, given their coach's history. However, an FCS transfer from Idaho spoiled that Monday nighter for the fans in Chapel Hill by popping off for 136 yards and a score on nine receptions.
Look for TCU wide receiver Jordan Dwyer to put on another show in what could be the last Battle for the Iron Skillet for the foreseeable future. Dwyer is clearly star QB Josh Hoover's favorite target, after he put up 89 yards last week. He's top 10 in the Big 12 in yards per route run this season (3.52)
Obviously, SMU is a jump up in competition, but the Mustangs' defense hasn't impressed early after losing key pieces from last year's team to the NFL. SMU is ranked No. 66 in SP+ on defense and No. 59 in EPA per pass, while Dwyer has gone five straight games with Over 79.5 receiving yards, dating back to his time with the Vandals. If he does it again, a $10 bet pays an $8.77 profit.
⬆️ Cade Klubnik Over 2.5 passing touchdowns (+120) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Even the biggest doubters of Clemson QB Cade Klubnik couldn't have expected him to struggle this much to start the season. He came into the year as a Heisman Trophy odds favorite, and now he's +10000. But that's been the story of Klubnik's career: he struggles against higher-end opponents and then torches the lesser ACC teams.
Last season, Klubnik started the year out with an ugly performance against Georgia before throwing three-plus touchdowns in nine of his last 13 games. With how poorly Syracuse's defense has played this season, I can't pass on taking these plus-money odds on Klubnik to have a bounce-back game, especially with wide receiver Antonio Williams potentially back.
Fran Brown's defense is No. 97 in EPA per pass and has allowed the most passing touchdowns in the ACC this season (6). Klubnik and his loaded wide receiver room should have a big game in Death Valley and turn a $10 bet into a $12 profit.
🔥 Taylen Green to score anytime TD (-138) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Had Arkansas been able to pull off the upset against Ole Miss last weekend, there would have been a ton of talk about Green as a Heisman Trophy odds dark horse. The former Boise State QB has leveled up in his second season in the SEC with the Razorbacks, and he looks like one of the most dynamic dual-threats in the country.
In what should be a shootout against a surging Memphis team on the road, Green is poised to have a major workload as a runner. In two games against FBS programs this season, Green is averaging 133 rushing yards on 11.5 carries, finding the end zone in both games. The Tigers' defense is ranked outside the top 50 in SP+, and Green has Arkansas No. 2 in EPA per rush.
With Green's big-play ability, he's top 25 in the country in rushing yards after contact (5.1) and No. 2 in 10-plus-yard runs; his odds of scoring are as short as -165 at some of the best college football betting sites. Those odds imply a 62.26% probability he'll score, but these odds at bet365 pay a $7.25 profit on a $10 bet if he does put six on the board.

⬆️ Jadarian Price Over 62.5 rushing yards (-114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Yes, Jeremiyah Love was the most significant Heisman Trophy odds-contending running back entering the season. But his line of 101.5 rushing yards against Purdue is a little high for my liking. Instead, I'm supporting his backup to produce a strong day against the Boilermakers.
Price has been the more explosive runner of the two early, with defenses keying on stopping Love, and a nice lead against a lesser opponent should mean more second-half work for Price. The junior topped this number against a strong Texas A&M defense last week while rushing for 68 yards on 12 carries. He's logged more 10-plus-yard runs (five) than Love (four) this season.
Last year, Price popped off for 86 rushing yards on just eight carries against Purdue. If he can go for 63-plus again this season, a $10 bet pays an $8.77 profit at FanDuel.

🔥 Kenyon Sadiq to score anytime TD (+120) ⭐⭐⭐
Based solely on his stats, it might not seem like Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq has been one of the most talked-about NFL draft prospects in the country thus far - but just watch the Ducks play, and you can see why. Sadiq is a freak, and though he's caught just five passes in three games, he's scored twice on those receptions.
Used all over the formation in Will Stein's offense - 49.2% in the slot, 34.9% in-line, 14.3% out wide, plus two carries - Sadiq will have ample opportunity to score in the game formerly known as the Civil War. Oregon State has one of the worst defenses in the country - No. 112 in SP+ and No. 111 in EPA per pass - and has allowed the seventh-most touchdown passes this season (7).
In two games against Power Four opponents, California and Texas Tech, the Beavers allowed the opposing starting tight end to score a touchdown. Sadiq should be able to continue that trend with Dante Moore throwing his way, and if he does, a $10 bet pays a $12 profit.

⬆️ Ahmad Hardy Over 90.5 rushing yards (-114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Don't be shocked if by November, Missouri running back Ahmad Hardy is getting some Heisman buzz. As a true freshman at UL Monroe last season, he helped reinvigorate one of the worst programs in the country and solidified himself as one of the best players in the Group of Five. This year, he's proving himself to be among the best playmakers in the entire sport.
Hardy is coming off the best rushing performance of the year, 250 yards on 22 carries with 177 coming after contact. The sophomore forced 13 missed tackles in the win over Louisiana and leads the Power Four in rushing after going for 100-plus yards for the third time in three games this season.
So while South Carolina is the best defense he's seen this season, Hardy should still eat against a Gamecocks unit that's ranked outside the top 50 in EPA per rush. If Hardy goes for 91-plus behind one of the best offensive lines in the sport, a $10 bet pays an $8.77 profit.
⬇️ Mark Fletcher Jr. Under 77.5 rushing yards (-114) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Florida's defensive performance against LSU last week was overshadowed by the fact that Gators QB DJ Lagway threw five interceptions. But Florida managed to give up just 20 points, despite getting zero help from its offense, against a college football championship odds contender led by a QB with first-round buzz.
So while Miami QB Carson Beck and running back Mark Fletcher Jr. are both coming off hot performances, both could struggle against the Gators. I'm targeting Fletcher's Under specifically because Florida's defense is No. 3 in EPA per rush this season and is holding opponents to just 3.0 yards per carry.
Fletcher is averaging only 14 carries per game, splitting the workload with CharMar Brown, and is likely to have a similar performance to the one he did against Notre Dame in Week 1 (66 yards on 15 carries). Last season, he ran for only 23 yards in a 41-17 win against the Gators, and if Florida holds him below 77 yards again, a $10 bet pays an $8.77 profit.
🔥 Jonah Coleman to score 2+ touchdowns (+120) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Sure, Washington hasn't played anybody. But this year's Apple Cup looks like it won't be all that much harder for the Huskies to win than Week 2's 70-10 drubbing of UC Davis. And at worst, it will be similar to Week 1's 38-21 victory over Colorado State, a program that will be joining Washington State in the fake Pac-12 next season.
In those two games, Washington running back Jonah Coleman ran for a combined seven touchdowns ... yes, you read that right. Coming off a bye week, Coleman should be fresh, too, and ready to rumble through a Wazzu defense that's predominantly made up of FCS transfers. Jimmy Rogers' Cougars haven't played a Power Four team this season and just got hammered 59-10 by North Texas, so how will they stop Coleman?
Washington State is ranked No. 119 in SP+ on defense and No. 96 in EPA per rush, which is why Jedd Fisch can ride his star back to another win - Coleman is top 10 in the country in rushing touchdowns, rushing yards after contact (228), and 15-plus-yard runs (6).
With odds as short as -700 to score one touchdown, I love the plus-money odds on Coleman to score twice, with a $10 bet paying a $120 profit.

🔥 Mason Mini to score anytime TD (+135) ⭐⭐⭐
For those who long for the days of watching future NFL quarterbacks dice up defenses during Pac-12 After Dark, I present to you Cal after dark. If you've stayed up late watching college football the last few weeks, you know exactly what I'm talking about ... and if you haven't, you'll want to consider betting Cal's College Football Playoff odds.
Sagapolutele, aka JKS, is the truth. The freshman has made the Golden Bears a must-watch, and he's thrown six touchdowns in two games against FBS teams. Two of those touchdowns were caught by Mason Mini, who's become the QB's safety net and go-to in the red zone. Rightfully so, as Mini has caught 13 of his 14 targets, has a 100% contested catch rate, and JKS has a 135.7 NFL QB rating when targeting him.
Look for the pair to connect for six for the third time in four games when Cal plays San Diego State late on Saturday. The Aztecs have played one Power Four team, Washington State, and allowed three touchdown passes in a 36-13 loss - two of those touchdowns were caught by Wazzu tight end Trey Leckner. If Mini can score, a $10 bet pays a $13.50 profit.

For example, if a QB’s passing yards line is set at 250.5, you can bet the Over (251-plus yards) or Under (250 or fewer yards).
