College Football Week 8 Same Game Parlays Odds, Picks & Predictions (2022)
Week 8 is exciting, with games that could impact the conference standings. We’ve got three top-25 conference matchups, with all of these having a legitimate shot at a conference championship and bigger hopes of a National Title. We’re calling one major upset, and we have a massive parlay to give you this week.
(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)
#9 UCLA vs. #10 Oregon
- Leg 1: Over 70.5 total points (-110)
- Leg 2: UCLA +6.5 (-110)
- Leg 3: Bo Nix anytime scorer (-230)
- Leg 4: Zach Charbonnet anytime scorer (-280)
With no more divisions in the PAC-12, every game feels like a big one. We have two high-scoring offenses that could have a shootout to gain an edge in the PAC-12 standings.
Oregon is coming into this matchup with the ninth-most points per game. Auburn transfer Bo Nix has been an efficient passer with a 70.4 completion percentage and 12 passing touchdowns. His legs have done the most damage, with eight rushing touchdowns and 15.5 yards per carry in October.
The Bruins are not far from the Ducks offensively and are 12th in the points per game this season. UCLA’s rushing attack has been dangerous, with Zach Charbonnet once against being the best running back in this conference and leading the PAC-12 with 123.0 rushing yards per game.
Like Nix, quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson can move the ball through the air with the nation’s second-best 74.8 completion percentage and 5.5 yards per carry.
These offenses score a combined 83 points per game, and this will be a back-and-forth game that may not be decided till the 60th minute.

#17 Kansas State vs. #8 TCU
- Leg 1: Kansas State ML (+134)
- Leg 2: Under 53,5 total points (-110)
- Leg 3: Deuce Vaughn anytime scorer (-250)
The TCU Horned Frogs are off to their first 6-0 start since 2017. Quarterback Max Duggan is getting national attention with the sixth-best passing efficiency in the FBS, and he has rushed for at least 50 yards and a rushing touchdown in six straight games. This has led to TCU being the third-best offense in the country and having scored 38 points in all six games.
That could be because they haven’t faced a challenging defense till now. Kansas State comes into this game 14th in points allowed and is the first scoring defense inside the top 75 that TCU has seen.
The K-State defense has next-level talent, including Felix Anudike-Uzomah, who leads the nation with 1.08 sacks per game and is projected first-round pick in the upcoming draft.
The Horned Frogs will getconsistent pressure at the line, and while Duggan can run, the Wildcats have enough talent to prevent him from breaking off those big plays. TCU will take their first loss but will still be in an excellent spot to play for a Big 12 title.

#20 Texas vs. #11 Oklahoma State
- Leg 1: Texas -6.5 (-105)
- Leg 2: Quinn Ewers over 255.5 passing yards (-110)
- Leg 3: Xavier Worthy to score 2+ touchdowns (+420)
After a dominating win over Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry, Texas almost lost to Iowa State last week with a 24-21 win. We will not get that same performance from the Longhorns this Saturday, as they’ll be ready for this matchup.
The three-headed monster of the Texas offense still had some great numbers — Quinn Ewrers threw for three touchdowns, with Xavier Worthy catching two of them, and Bijan Robinson went off with 135 rushing yards.
They get an awful Oklahoma State defense that’s 126th in passing yards and 75th in points allowed. I’m looking at Ewers and Worthy to each have big games.
The status of Spencer Sanders is a massive factor for the Cowboys. He’s been dealing with a shoulder injury that impacted him with a season-low 44.4% competition rate in the loss to TCU. If Sanders doesn’t play or isn’t 100%, it will be difficult to stay on pace with the Texas offense.
Parlay Odds via FanDuel: +1290
