College Football Week 11 Expert Betting Picks
Austin Swaim
Spread/Moneyline: Oregon -6.5 (-110)
Spread
I think this spread is cultivated by the Indiana Hoosiers' early-season struggles at Kinnick Stadium, but the Oregon Ducks are a pretty special bunch. They're second in adjusted EPA per play (+0.34) while allowing just 3.5 yards per carry (23rd in FBS). It could be tough for the Iowa Hawkeyes to score at all, and Iowa's D is only 11th in EPA per play allowed despite sitting 2nd in the nation in yards per play. Their schedule has been a bit soft, which could allow Oregon to make a mammoth statement.
Total: Georgia-Mississippi State Over 56.5 Points (-110)
Total Match Points
Player Prop: J'Koby Williams Any Time Touchdown (-125)
Riley Thomas
Spread/Moneyline: Alabama -9.5 (-120)
Spread
Total: Texas A&M-Missouri Under 48.5 (-110)
Total Match Points
Player Prop: Noah Whittington 70+ Rushing Yards (+182)
Saturday's clash between the No. 9 Oregon Ducks and No. 20 Iowa Hawkeyes carries only a 42.5-point total, but the Ducks could have a path to points on the ground. Oregon has a 55.5% rush-play rate (40th) while posting 6.3 yards per carry (2nd), and the Hawkeyes rank 60th in expected points added (EPA) per rushing attempt allowed compared to ranking 9th in EPA per dropback allowed (via Game On Paper).
Running back Noah Whittington is averaging 111.0 rushing yards per game over the last two. Yet, his rushing prop is set at only 50.5. Whittington's 70+ rushing yard alternate line (+182) is providing excellent value.
Skyler Carlin
Spread/Moneyline: SMU -10.5 (-110)
Spread
The Boston College Eagles haven't earned a win since their season opener against an FCS school, and five of the SMU Mustangs' six victories this season were decided by 11-plus points -- with the lone exception being last week's upset win over the No. 18 Miami (FL) Hurricanes. While SMU could have a hangover from their impressive win over Miami, Boston College has legitimately been one of the worst programs in the nation, ranking 129th in net EPA per play (-0.19) among 136 qualified schools.
Total: Navy-Notre Dame Over 55.5 (-110)
Total Match Points
Player Prop: Carnell Tate Over 79.5 Receiving Yards (-114)
Carnell Tate (OSU) - Receiving Yds
