Temple vs SMU Game Center
Line History
Temple picked up its second victory over a ranked opponent last week by edging then-No. , and 23 Memphis the Owls search in the road at SMU for a third. Outside of a nasty loss at Buffalo in Week 3, Temple might well be at the 25 itself. The Mustangs are coming off also bring a 6-0 record to the back half of this year and then in Week 7. Additionally, SMU is 5-1 ATS, only failing to cover its final time out against Tulsa.
This line has moved to more than a touchdown to get SMU today, and that I find somewhat surprising since -6.5 looked like an appropriate line. The Mustangs have a balance on offense through the air and on the floor, while the Owls lean more in their aerial attack with QB Anthony Russo. Defensively, Temple is far much better and is strong against the run game, while??the Mustangs are only so-so in stopping opposing quarterbacks.
That is their first meeting because 2016, although temple has covered with SMU at each of the previous few encounters, including winning two of those games outright. That being said, the prior 3 contests between these universities were -12 (Temple, 2016), -13.5 (Temple, 2015) and -14 (SMU, 2013). I anticipate a bit of also this line closing about -7 and a buyback for the Owls for the Mustangs.
Michigan vs Penn State Game Center
Line History
After rapping off then-No, the Nittany Lions eye that was undefeated victories over ranked opponents. 17 Iowa week 17-12. Meanwhile stomped around the road at then-No. 13 Wisconsin in Week 4, Michigan has rattled off three straight wins. 14 Iowa, also it revealed some prowess against teams in Illinois and Rutgers.
The Wolverines have experienced the Nittany Lions’ amount lately, going 4-1 SU and ATS but that lone loss came at Beaver Stadium at 2017 from the previous contest. Penn State won that match 42-13 plus it was also the only time that the Nittany Lions had been??favored in the last seven meetings over Michigan.
Penn State has had a much better offense and defense compared to Michigan this year but has had some vulnerabilities in its secondary, surrendering an average of 205.8 passing yards per game. However, the Nittany Lions will allow Wolverines QB Shea Patterson attempt to beat on them as he has the smallest pass completion percentage of the profession as well as got the average yards per completion. I could see this lineup continue to proceed in favor of Penn State.
Boise State vs BYU Game Center
Line History
Boise State proceeds to climb the rankings because it makes its way through the Mountain West in 5-1 ATS and 6-0 SU. The Broncos faced some adversity last week as accurate freshman Hank Bachmeier, their quarterback, left the game but backup Chase Cord filled in admirably. On the opposite side, BYU is coming home if it edged then-No, looking for its first win as Week 3. 24 USC 30-27 in overtime.
Even though the Broncos have experienced the Cougars’ number recently, winning five of the previous seven meetings they have just covered in just two of these games. Boise State was favored between these teams in each of the last five competitions, with all four of these.
BYU’s offense has been anemic this year, averaging 22.3 points a game, which does not bode well this week as Boise State ranks 27th in college soccer with just 19.5 points allowed per game. It is somewhat surprising to find this line remain stagnant thus far and it could remain there weekly, but I feel it’ll move in favor of Boise State, when it goes.
Oregon vs Washington Game Center
Line History
After falling in its season opener against then-No. 16 Auburn, Oregon has rattled off five straight wins, covering three of these. Meanwhile, the Washington continues to be a hard group falling to Stanford and Cal, while making a triumph over then-No. 21 taking good care of business against teams and USC.
The Ducks have been a dependable wager against the Huskies, covering in seven of those and winning eight of their past ten meetings, but recently they are 1-2 ATS within the previous three. This past year, Oregon had been a 3.5-point underdog in the home to Washington and won 30-27. Now we are watching a 6.5-point swing along with the Ducks will be on the road.
Both teams are strong and typical the exact same number of points per game. On the other hand, the Ducks??defense has enabled the third-fewest points per game this year and has been very tough against opposing running backs, permitting just 107.5 rushing yards per game. That may be a problem for Washington since it averages 178.7 rushing yards per game. If you’re a Huskies backer, I believe this line will visit +3.5 because we close kickoff.
