Saturday’s Best College Football Same Game Parlay Picks: Auburn vs. Maryland
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Auburn vs. Maryland
- Leg 1: Maryland +6.5 (-110)
- Leg 2: Payton Throne Over 0.5 Interceptions (+105)
- Leg 3: Roman Hemby Over 56.5 Rushing Yards (-115)
Auburn had a solid season in Year 1 of the Hugh Freeze era by going 6-6, but many believe they should have won their last game, which would have ended that season on a very high note. They have notable opt-outs on the defensive side, including D.J. James, who had two interceptions, and Marcus Harris, who led the team with seven sacks. Maryland opened as a two-point underdog, but after Taulia Tagovailoa opted out, that soared to 6.5, that's how crucial oddsmakers believe he was to this team. Billy Edwards isn't green, and he saw some snaps this year but also played a significant amount in 2022. This will be a tough defensive opponent for the Terrapins, but Vegas tilted this line too much, and Maryland should keep it within a touchdown.
Throne's inaugural year at Auburn was not desirable as he struggled with his accuracy, and although nine interceptions are his lowest mark as a starter, he also threw more than 150 fewer passes than in either of his previous two seasons at Michigan State. It's surprising to see this on the plus side, with Maryland's 15 picks being the fifth-most in the country.
Hemby has been hit or miss during the season. He's faced some tough run defenses like Michigan and couldn't gain a single yard on five carries, but then ended the season rushing for 113 yards against Rutgers. With Tagovailoa out, don't be surprised if he gets a solid amount of carries. Auburn's defense has been the most vulnerable against the run. It was 73rd in run success defense and allowed 4.4 yards per carry.
