CFB– (313) BOSTON COLLEGE at (314) PURDUE 12:00 ET ESPN2 *New*
Boston College has arguably their best offensive team since Matt Ryan was playing for the Eagles. Purdue can also score and does not play a whole lot of defense. With this, the total went up like the consumption of Bud Light's in Cleveland Thursday night from 60 to 65. There seems little chance the Boilermakers will slow down B.C. Purdue has shown they will not quit when trailing which is why their contest with Missouri went OVER last Saturday. Because the Boilers will turn the ball over, that will be the impetus for an OVER call.
Betting Trend - 55% backing Under
Doug's Take - Lean Over
CFB – (337) CLEMSON at (338) GEORGIA TECH 3:30 ET ABC
Georgia Tech's defense and turnovers have cost them as they have lost their past two games, both as favorites. This explains the Yellow Jackets being stung by bettors and spiking from +14 to +17 against Clemson. The Tigers have won three straight in this series (2-0-1 ATS) and are 11-2 ATS in road games after playing two nonconference contests. Update - There has been a larger buyback than anticipated with Clemson at -15.5. The Tigers know how to stop the Jackets option offense and get this one done.
Betting Trend - Was 80% backing Clemson, now 88%

CFB– (339) OHIO U. at (340) CINCINNATI 12:00 ET ESPNU *New*
Though it is still only Week 4 of the college football season, Cincinnati being tied for second in fewest points allowed (8.0) is still a good accomplishment. This is the driving force for the total to crumble five points to 52 in the battle of southern Ohio schools. The Bobcats are scoring and allowing a lot of points, which makes this a more challenging choice. While the Over is very tempting, both teams have strong UNDER tendencies, which includes Cincy at 10-2 UNDER after scoring 50 points or more. While the betting trend makes sense, that is more one-sided action than I would have guessed.
Betting Trend - 83% backing Over
Doug's Take - Lean Under
Good Luck and Tear it Up Saturday!
