🔮 Army vs. Kansas State prediction: Avery Johnson Under 229.5 passing yards

Here's an excerpt from our Army vs. Kansas State prediction on why Philip Wood likes Avery Johnson to stay Under 229.5 passing yards

"I also worry that limited possessions will hurt Johnson, as the Black Knights proved last week that they can dominate time of possession even if they lose. And finally, Johnson was in tight contests in his first two games, which led to a lot of success through the air. This game won’t be close, and Johnson won’t be throwing much in the second half."

📊 Michigan vs. Oklahoma odds

• Date: Saturday, Sept. 6
• Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. ET
• Location: Memorial Stadium (Norman, Okla.)
• How to watch: ABC

🔮 Michigan vs. Oklahoma prediction: Oklahoma -4.5

Here's an excerpt from our Michigan vs. Oklahoma prediction on why Matt Jacob predicts Oklahoma to cover the spread against Michigan:

"This is more of a play against Michigan, which was not impressive at all in its 34-17 opening victory over lowly New Mexico. The Wolverines snagged three interceptions, racked up 456 total yards, and quadrupled the Lobos’ rushing total (201-50) - and yet still only won by 17 points against an opponent picked to finish 11th in a bad Mountain West Conference."

🔮 Stanford vs. BYU prediction: BYU -20.5 (-110)

Here's an excerpt from our Stanford vs. BYU prediction on why Isaiah Sirois is backing the the Cougars at -20.5:

"While the BYU ground game was responsible for the Week 1 win, the passing game, with quarterback Bear Bachmeier leading the way, wasn’t an issue. Bachmeier completed 63.6% of his throws for 8.8 yards per attempt, and three touchdowns. With Stanford’s defense creating havoc just 10.8% of the time – and the defensive backs accounting for only 1.5% of that number – Bachmeier should excel through the air as well."
