College Football Same Game Parlay Picks: Week 2

Stanford at USC (-29.5) | Total 69.5

Leg 1: Stanford +29.5 (-110)

The Trojans have been putting up big numbers once again in this Lincoln Riley offense. This high-powered attack is led by Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams, who has 597 passing yards and nine touchdowns in 2023. While USC should be able to beat Stanford, the line is way too large, and Stanford showed enough on offense against Hawaii where you can be confident they can put up points against a still-bad USC defense.

Leg 2: Caleb Williams UNDER 330.5 Passing Yards (-114)

Williams had a stellar performance in last year’s game against Stanford, with 341 passing yards and four touchdowns. But I suspect he will fall short of this number in this year’s contest. Looking back at that game, he had a couple of huge passes, including a 75-yard touchdown to Jordan Addison. The Trojans also ran the ball more with 36 carries as opposed to 27 pass attempts. Stanford had a top-50 pass defense last season, and while Willams will put up numbers, this is another line set too high.

Leg 3: Ashton Daniels UNDER 233.5 Passing Yards (-114)

Ashton Daniels will be a much different quarterback than Tanner McKee was for Stanford. Daniels is not afraid to take off and went for 11 carries and 42 yards against Hawaii. I think his willingness to run will limit his passing production.

Parlay odds: +573

Notre Dame (-7.5) at N.C. State | Total 50.5

Leg 1: Notre Dame -7.5 (-110)

Notre Dame has been great to start the season, as it looks like they finally have a balanced team. Not only can they play smash-mouth football in the trenches, but they've upgraded their passing offense with the arrival of Sam Hartman. While NC State should be a formidable defensive opponent, they showed last week against UConn that the offense may not have improved even with veteran Brennan Armstrong at quarterback.

Leg 2: Sam Hartman OVER 229.5 Passing Yards (-114)

Hartman is very familiar with the Wolfpack from his days at Wake Forest. Last season, he put up some excellent numbers with 397 passing yards and two touchdowns, but he threw three interceptions as well. Hartman’s gone over this yardage total in all three matchups against N.C. State and will eclipse it again.

Leg 3: Brennan Armstrong UNDER 220.5 Passing Yards (-114)

After Armstrong was fourth in passing yards in 2021, 2022 was a letdown as he saw a huge drop in passing yards per game and competition rate. NC State was a heavy run offense last year, but you assumed with Armstrong, they'd balance it out. Last week against UConn, they passed 26 times compared to 46 carries. Notre Dame is still one of the best secondaries in the country and will contain Armstrong.

Parlay odds: +573

Nebraska at Colorado (-2.5) | Total 58.5

Leg 1: Colorado -2.5 (-105)

No team in the country has more hype after Week 1 than Colorado. In their debut under Deion Sanders, this team went out and got a big road upset against TCU. The line for this game dramatically moved from Nebraska being an almost three-touchdown favorite before Colorado's win to the Buffaloes being the favorite. The Cornhuskers will have a better defensive matchup this week, but Jeff Sims didn't prove last week or in his previous years at Georgia Tech that he’s a viable quarterback who can win games with his arm.

Leg 2: Travis Hunter OVER 70.5 Receiving Yards (-114)

It's great to see Travis Hunter on the main stage. The former No. 1 overall recruit showed off his two-way ability last year, but it was on the national stage last week when he had an interception and 119 receiving yards. Look for him to keep that going this week.

Leg 3: Shedeur Sanders OVER 315.5 Passing Yards (-114)

Another notable performance was by quarterback Shedeur Sanders, who threw for 510 yards and four touchdowns. TCU isn't a good passing defense, but Nebraska wasn't much better last year, finishing outside the top 70 in passing yards per game.

Parlay odds: +588
