Back at it for Week Three of College Football! While there are not as many big name games, there looks to be some GREAT College Football happening this weekend.
Here are my plays for this Week Three of College Football action.
Check out the latest episodes of the JCPod and Captain By A Hook for my full breakdowns. All odds are a mix/the best number from FanDuel, DraftKings, and BetMGM.
Friday
Arizona +7.5 (-110)
I look for the combination of Noah Fifita and Tetairoa McMillan to help keep Arizona in this game. I have no clue if Kansas State is hiding their full playbook, but they just seem a little bit weird still the season. They haven’t seemed as dominant as they potential could be so, and I am unsure of what Avery Johnson is as a passer. I look for Arizona to at least keep this close and within a touchdown.
Saturday
South Carolina +7.5 (-130)
I’ll look for South Carolina to be able to keep this game within a touchdown. It’s going to come down to the offense however, and I am a bit scared of how South Carolina’s offense will perform.
LSU offensive line versus the South Carolina defensive line should be a fun matchup, and I really look forward to watching what Dylan Stewart can do in this game. LSU may still win this game, but South Carolina will have a great atmosphere and I look for them to keep this within a touchdown.
Oklahoma State -18.5 (-110)
Oklahoma State was just barely able to cover last week, and somehow magically did it in double overtime at that. Coming into this week against Tulsa, I look for this be a get right game for State. I look for Ollie Gordon to get it going in the run game, and for Oklahoma State to be able to win this game big.
Miami Ohio+3.5 (-105)
Cincinnati was up last week when they blew the lead to Pitt. Coming into the game this week, I just looked for Miami Ohio to keep it a close game. MACtion has been amazing so far this year, and look for this to be another good game and a very close one. I would not be shocked if Miami Ohio won outright, but I will be taking the points just to be safe
Jacksonville State Moneyline (-115)
This may just be my last bet with Jacksonville State. After super impressive year last year in their first year moving up levels, they have struggled out the gate a bit. After a horrible week one loss and a somewhat not as bad second loss, it feels like they need a win here.
I am not totally impressed with Eastern Michigan so far, so this feels like a must win for Jacksonville State. If they’re not able to win here against Eastern Michigan, I may just not touch Jacksonville State for the rest of the year.
Georgia -23.5 (-105)
After Kentucky got embarrassed last week by South Carolina, I kind of look for Georgia to come in and do the same. Kentucky’s offense has really looked bad so far. Now playing a very talented Georgia team, I look for Georgia to be able to win this game by score of about 30-10. If Kentucky plays like last week, I just see no world where they keep up.
Colorado -7 (-110)
I’ll look for this to be a game where Colorado expels the demons. Colorado State is not nearly as good as they were last year, and this is a good chance for Colorado to be able to run the score up big. I feel as if this game may be a bit misvalued by the books, and I could see Colorado winning by 10+ points.
Air Force +16.5 (-110)
This bet scares me a little bit, but Air Force has done me well the past two years. Baylor has been awful this year so far, and I’ve yet to see anything that makes me like them. Due to this, I am looking for Air Force at least keep this within two touchdowns.
I’m waiting to see if the DeQuan Finn for Baylor will get going, but so far it’s been a pretty slow start for him. Baylor’s coach is also on the hot seat, so I’m curious to see if he has lost some lock room yet this season as well. All of these signs point me towards Air Force keeping it within 17.
Toledo-Mississippi State under 57.5 (-110)
Toledo’s defensive line is good while Mississippi States might just not be good at all across the board and especially in the trenches (compared to the rest of the SEC). I look for this to be a lower scoring defensive affair that is both offences struggling to score and put up points.
Ole Miss team total over 43.5 (-105)
Ole Miss has been on fire this year to start out. Now facing a weak and not so good Wake Forrest defense, I like for Ole Miss to score a lot in this game.
East Carolina moneyline (+100)
Appalachian State just got beat down last game by Clemson. Now they travel on the road to play a feisty East Carolina team. I look for Easy Carolina to take advantage of an Appalachian State team that got rolled last week, and get the win.
I am a bit scared of Appalachian States defense however. After that Clemson game, I’m ready to maybe reconsider and use this game as an evaluator.
This is a coin flip game according to odds. I look for the East Carolina boys to win at home as long as they keep the turnovers at a minimum. This play scares me the most in Week Three, but I still think ECU can get it done.
Moneyline DAWGS
This is a new thing I will do every week, starting with this Week Three Slate. I will look for a few teams that have the potential to steal a game, but might be at some super long odds. I may not bet all of these (sometimes none at all), but these are some DAWGS I like this week to just maybe pull off a massive upset. Odds must be at least above +200.
- UConn (+610) against Duke
- Purdue (+310) against Notre Dame.

- East Carolina moneyline (-102 on book with nasty boy)
- Jalen Milroe anytime touchdown (-154)
- Jeremiyah Love anytime touchdown (-136)
