College Football: Early Lines You Might Want to Jump On

College football’s Week 0 has come and gone with two or three close games played Saturday and Week 1 is set to kick off. For many individuals, this is the very first time that you have made a wager since football season, steering clear of baseball along with its uncertainty. I took a peek at a few of the early traces for Week 1 that could be worth wagering on??Saturday morning, until heavy motions that come.
The total for the visit to Clemson in Week 1 of Georgia Tech was 59. The entire has just slightly moved up one point to 60. These two schools locked horns in Week 4 and performed with a total of 70. At the point in the year, the Tigers were still entrenched at a quarterback battle between Kelly Bryant and Trevor Lawrence.
Running back Travis Etienne returns this year while Lawrence pitched well and he had 122 yards vs Georgia Tech last year. I believe there could be some small growing pains on the defensive side of the ball to the Tigers, having to substitute the point that could enable the Yellow Jackets to discover using their strategy.
This line could close a couple of points greater closer to the game and I anticipate 50 alone to be scored by the Tigers hence OVER 60 is a great line.
Tulsa visits Michigan State at Week 1 and the Spartans started as a 21.5-point favored with the entire coming in 46.5 points. The entire has moved up 1 stage to 47.5 that I think is the wrong direction. Last year, Michigan and also Tulsa State ranked 126th and 103rd respectively points per game out of 130 total teams.
The Spartans coped with a lot of injuries that could explain some of the reason for their lack of offense, but maybe perhaps not much was addressed in the offseason but rather only a reshuffling of the training staff to unique functions hoping that will spark things, I’m not so certain it will. On the defensive side of the ball, Sparty return eight starters which should cause issues and also needed the 13th-best defense.
Until that happens, the line could remain pat but with those teams going UNDER a combined 16 of the last 19 matches online will come down jump on it.
The lineup has stayed pat within this competition because it started using all the No. 21 Iowa State Cyclones having an 18.5-point preferred and the whole opening in 41.5 points. I am really surprised to find this lineup not proceed with all of the preseason hype behind the Cyclones going from the Panthers against an FCS facet. Iowa State finished 2018 on a high note winning seven of its last nine matches falling to Washington and Texas State from the Valero Alamo Bowl.
Quarterback Brock Purdy must take a step forward following his true freshman season with two senior wide receivers and a skilled offensive line in front of him and also a senior running back as well. Search for this group beat up to kick the season off right if we get to the match, and this line will close over -20.
More, a year is entered by Alabama with its sights set on a national championship with a smothering defense and a high-octane offense. The opening total with this game has been 60.5 but has dropped three points and I believe that’s the wrong direction and it will move back toward to at least the opening line. Last year, the Crimson Tide had eight regular season games in which they published more or 50 things while finishing out.
Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, 2018 Heisman Trophy finalist, returns for his junior year and is connected by arguably the greatest receiver in college soccer in Jerry Jeudy. Duke will have a brand fresh look after losing quarterback Daniel Jones into the NFL draft therefore the offense may??scuffle a bit in the early going, however Alabama may hit on the OVER 57.5 points??only handedly.
Another match, very similar to that of the Northern Iowa/Iowa State competition, where the lineup and total has not shifted since the open since Louisiana Tech and Texas’ total has stayed stable at 55 points. The Longhorns averaged 31.1 points per game a year ago, ranking 45th in school football and is going to have a similar appearance in 2019 with quarterback Sam Ehlinger and running back Keaontay Ingram returning as well as their second-top receiver last season Collin Johnson.
The biggest question mark for Texas is a brand new look defense using four projected sophomores and a freshman holding the fort which could indicate some growing pains early in the summer as they adapt to the speed of college ball down. Louisiana Tech running Jaqwis Dancy back and is returning a lot of its offense quarterback J’mar Smith.
I think the two squads are going to find their opportunities offensively while the defenses are going to need a while to adjust and??develop and I feel the total should grow so jump on it early.
