This is USC’s final game of the regular season, and possibly the final game of Caleb Williams college career. While USC has lost 4 of their last 5 games, those losses have come against 4 very good teams (Notre Dame, Utah, Washington, Oregon). UCLA has lost back to back games against Arizona and Arizona State. Both of those losses came by double digits. There are rumors circulating that UCLA coach Chip Kelly could be in jeopardy of losing his job. Many UCLA players are expected to enter the transfer portal. With a lot of bad things brewing for the Bruins, we feel comfortable laying the -5 points behind USC.

We are siding with the offense that we trust more in this matchup. Arizona is playing very good football right now. This program has a lot to be excited about heading into bowl season, and next season. Arizona has won 4 straight, and they haven’t lost a game by more than a TD all season. Utah played Washington tough last week, but their offense has been inconsistent throughout the season. Arizona redshirt freshman QB Noah Fifita has limited experience in these big games, but he’s played well in these moments so far. Our wager is on Arizona -1.

This won’t be a popular bet today, as the large majority of the public tickets and money are behind Georgia. We had this game circled as a potential let down spot for Georgia. Neyland Stadium is not an easy place to go in and win. While Tennessee has struggled on the road this season, they are undefeated at home. This is an SEC rivalry game where Tennessee is playing with house money. They have nothing to lose with a mediocre 6-3 record, and the narrative is that they are going to get blown out. Georgia is on the opposite end of this spectrum. They have everything to lose, currently holding a top seed and looking to be Playoff bound. This is one of those spots where we prefer to fade the public and side with conference home dogs. Tennessee +10 is our wager. Let’s see if the Vols can crash the party for Georgia, or at least keep it within single digits.

Weather could play a factor in this matchup, with potential rain in the forecast. The Washington offense is explosive behind Heisman favorite Michael Penix Jr. However, their defense has looked like it could be their downfall in a game like this. Oregon State is one of the best home teams in the nation. They’ve won 16 of their last 17 home games. Oregon State looks to be better in the trenches, and has an experienced QB of their own. We are going to lay the -1 behind Oregon State. Our stake is a half unit.
