College Football Week 10 has given us some good games over the week. Now coming into the weekend, we have some huge games with College Football Playoff implications on the line.
Here are my plays for College Football Week 10.
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.
Straights
Friday
I have two games I like for Friday. to get some action on the board, I am on Boise State -23.5 (-110) and UConn -7 (-115)
IU -7.5 (-110)
Kurtis Rourke is back in action for the Hoosiers. While I do think this will be a tough road game for them, I still have beliefs in these Hoosiers under Curt Cignetti. They have covered in every game for us this year so far, so there’s no point in turning our backs on them now.
Army -21.5 (-115)
Very similar to Indiana, Army has covered in every game for us. In this game against Air Force this will be a tough rivalry. With how explosive Army’s offense has been this year however, I’ll look for them to be able to win this game by about 24 points or more. This game may start out close but I look for Army to be able to pull away more as the game goes on. Bryson Daily has been awesome to watch for Army, and he will be a huge reason as to if Army covers again for us.
Eastern Michigan +9.5 (-110)
I simply just like this number. While I’m not too sure if Eastern Michigan can win, I do like for them to keep this game close. The MAC has been wild this year, with it seemingly being any given Saturday for a team. I like Eastern Michigan’s chance to keep this game within single digits.
Illinois +3 (-115)
I damn near like for Illinois to win this game outright. This +3 feels like a bit of an overreaction to what happened last week against Oregon. Illinois didn’t play a horrible game last week. I just think that Oregon is that good of a team this year. I’ll look for Illinois to at least keep this game within a field goal if not, win outright against a Minnesota team who has been decent so far this year. Brent Bielema has never lost to Minnesota, and I see that starting Saturday.
Texas A&M -2.5 (-112)
When it comes to this game, this is the second most important game left on Texas A&M schedule. If they are able to win here, only Auburn (who they should beat) and Texas (the other important game) stand in the way for Texas A&M to go to the SEC title game. I’ll look for Mike Elko to have the team ready to go and for them to be able to at least get 21 to 28 points on offense. If they are able to do that, I like the chances of Texas A&M to stop South Carolina enough because of Mike Elko and the defense.
Pitt +7.5 (-115)
I love getting Pitt at this number. Pitt has really impressed me so far this year, and they especially have looked good in their last few games. SMU has also been playing decent ball since their slow start to the season. I am scared of this bet though, as I can see it going one of two ways. This will either be a close battle where Pitt covers, or SMU may win this game by two or more touchdowns.
Vanderbilt +7.5 (-110)
I do not understand why Vanderbilt is 7.5 point dogs, but I love this number though anyway. Vanderbilt has had every game within this number so far this season, so that just makes me like it even more.  Vanderbilt is one win away from being both eligible, so I’ll look for them to be extra juiced up for this game. 
Navy -10.5 (-115)
This season I have liked comparing Army and Navy in their similar games. While, they may not be the same exact team, they do seem to have similar tendencies. Army beat Rice 37-14 when they played, so I like Navy’s chances with the spread. Navy is also coming off a big loss to Notre Dame.
Rice is also dealing with some coaching changes. I look for Navy to bounce back from the Notre Dame loss, and put up some big numbers on the scoreboard. 
Oregon -14.5 (-110)
I am kind of scared of this number, but I also feel like I shouldn’t be. Oregon is one of the best teams in the country, while Michigan has struggled to put anything together on offense consistently. I am simply gonna take this number because I don’t know how Michigan will be able to put up enough points on offense to keep this close. The biggest question in this game will be Dillion Gabriel and how will he play? If he plays like he has the last few weeks, then I see no reason as to why this number shouldn’t cover.
Parnell’s Nasty Boy Parlay Play of the Day
We need to get on the board. It was either Week Nine or Ten where we got our first hit last year, so let’s see if we can do it again! I’m going to go back to chalk for this Nasty Boy and pick three spreads with a moneyline.
I was able to get odds of +898 for this College Football Week 10 Nasty Boy:
- Texas A&M moneyline (-154)
- Navy -10.5 (-115)
- Georgia -13.5 (-138)
- Vanderbilt +7.5 (-114)
Let’s have a DAY! PLEASE GAMBLE RESPONSIBLY
