Week 3 Best College Football Betting System Plays
(Odds courtesy of DraftKings Sportsbook)
Arizona vs. Kansas State
NCAAF ARI Away Underdogs – Moneyline
On Friday night, the Arizona Wildcats will be underdogs against Kansas State in an epic ranked matchup on FOX. As road underdogs on the moneyline, Arizona is 3-3 over the last six games. But those three wins have helped earn an ROI of 130% with a profit of 7.80 units.
I promised another outright underdog using the systems. So here it is. This system loves Arizona to win outright against Kansas State.
While this isn’t a conference matchup, both teams are in the Big 12. This game was just scheduled before Arizona moved conferences. Ultimately, it’ll allow Arizona to see how they stack up.
With Noah Fifita at quarterback and Tetairoa McMillian at wide receiver, Kansas State can’t compare to this duo on offense. Kansas State should be able to run the ball more effectively behind D.J. Giddens, but Arizona’s run defense has held up so far.
Arizona should have more big plays down the field, which should help them earn a massive upset in Week 3.
Pick: Arizona (+230)
Rice vs. Houston
- +2.64 units over last year
To begin the season, the MCAAF Away Underdogs – Spread system has earned a 2% ROI on 161 wagers. This system looks at backing spreads for underdog teams on the road.
I’m eying Rice in its matchup against Houston this weekend. Houston is already 0-2 on the season with losses to UNLV and Oklahoma. Houston’s QB Donovan Smith has threw for 395 yards but has three interceptions with just one touchdown. His QBR ranks below the top 100 in college football.
Meanwhile, Stacy Sneed leads Houston is rushing. But he’s added 13 carries for just 36 yards through three games. He’s ultimately averaging 2.8 yards a carry.
On the other hand, E.J. Warner is quarterback for Rice. The former Temple QB and son of Kurt Warner, hasn’t been the most accurate quarterback, either. But he still went 20-for-30 against Texas Southern and threw for two touchdowns without taking a sack.
The run game is also way better behind Dean Connors, who has added 7.9 yards a carry on 21 attempts. Therefore, we’ll back Ricde at +4 (-110) per this system.
Pick: Rice +4 (-110)
San Diego State vs. California
- +0.82 units over last year
This system shows California’s success against the spread at home. They’re 7-3 in these scenarios over the last ten home games as favorites.
California shocked the world last week with a 21-14 win on the road at Auburn. They made the ACC proud with that win.
California is not sitting at 2-0 and will head home to face San Diego State. California’s fanbase will come out and support after that massive win. In addition, California is facing a San Diego State team that failed to score a point against Oregon State last week.
In that game, QB Danny O’Neill went 11-for-24 for 107 yards. The same type of state line will likely happen against California. After all, California held Payton Thorne of Auburn to 14-for-27 from the field with 165 yards passing and four interceptions.
Let’s take California at -18.5.
Pick: Under 35 (-110)
