BOSTON (AP) AJ Dillon needed one play to let everyone know he was back.
The Atlantic Coast Conference's preseason player of the year broke around the left end for 25 yards.
From there, Boston College was on its way to an emotional victory in its annual Red Bandana game.
Dillon carried it 32 times for 149 yards and a touchdown, Anthony Brown threw for a score and ran for another and BC beat Miami 27-14 on Friday night.
''It definitely was a confidence booster,'' Dillon said of his first carry. ''I was thinking about the ankle on the first run, so it was definitely a great confidence booster. I was happy to be out there.''
It was only BC's fourth victory in its last 22 meetings against Miami.
''He far exceeded our expectations today,'' BC coach Steve Addazio said of Dillon. ''He gave us a great boost and was a catalyst today.''
Brown went 15 of 28 for 152 yards with an interception, and Jeff Smith had a TD catch for the Eagles (6-2, 3-1 ACC). BC has six wins in October for the first time since 2009.
''The bandana game is a special game for us,'' Addazio said. ''It's just a special atmosphere and a special game. How big is this game? We're at home, playing a great opponent and able to get our sixth win of the year.
''I think more importantly, for me, our team is playing with a great deal of confidence right now.''
When it was over, the students stormed the field.
Malik Rosier completed 18 of 35 passes for 149 yards and a TD, but was incepted twice, leading to 10 BC points. DeeJay Dallas added a TD run for Miami (5-3, 2-2).
''We can't let this loss, these last two losses really, just keep trickling over to the rest of the season,'' Rosier said. ''We've got to stop it. We've got to stop the bleeding. We've got to win at home.''
Miami lost 16-13 at Virginia two weeks ago and fell out of the AP Top 25.
''Everybody's got some ownership in this thing,'' Hurricanes coach Mark Richt said. ''All you can do is go back to the drawing board and the keep working hard and looking at the next opponent and get ready to play ball. That's all you can do at this point, but we're all disappointed.''
With 1984 Heisman Trophy winner Doug Flutie on hand as BC honored his 1983 team - along with the 1993 squad - the Eagles built a 27-14 lead heading into the final quarter.
They led 17-14 at halftime and made it 20-14 on Colton Lichtenberg's 23-yard field goal midway into the third after Hamp Cheevers' interception off a ball batted around deep in Miami territory.
Taj-Amir Torres picked off Rosier on the ensuing possession before Dillon ran 14 yards for his score on the next play, making it 27-14.
Sparked by Dillon's return from a left ankle injury that sidelined him for 2 1/2 games and an amped-up, louder-than-normal crowd, the Eagles scored on their first two possessions. They marched 88 yards in 10 plays, taking a 7-0 lead when Brown hit Smith for a 9-yard TD.
''It hurt a bit,'' he said. ''I knew I was at a level to play.''
Miami tied it on its first drive, when Darrell Langham caught a 13-yard score, before BC moved ahead 14-7 on Brown's 5-yard run.
THE TAKEAWAY
Miami: The Hurricanes hardly look like a team that opened the season ranked eighth in the AP Top 25. They sputtered on offense and gave up big yardage plays defensively.
Boston College: The Eagles' offense looks so much more explosive with Dillon in the backfield, making them a much tougher matchup if he remains healthy.
RED BANDANA
It was the Eagles' annual game in memory of Welles Crowther, a former BC lacrosse player who was credited with saving dozens of lives in the South Tower of the World Trade Center during the terrorist attacks on Sept. 11, 2001 before he lost his life. He used his bandana- that he carried with him in his playing days at BC - to guard against the smoke and dust.
BC's players wore uniforms with bandana accents on their helmets, gloves, socks and cleats. His parents were on the field early in the second quarter.
TRICK AND TREAT
The Eagles used two trick plays that led to the TDs on their initial two drives when QB-turned-receiver Smith completed two passes for 58 yards.
On the first drive, he hit Brown across the field for 27 yards. On the second, he went down the left sideline, connecting with running back Travis Levy for 31 yards.

Louisiana Tech ends FAU's 10-game home winning streak 21-13

BOCA RATON, Fla. (AP) J'Mar Smith threw for 217 yards and a touchdown and Louisiana Tech beat Florida Atlantic 21-13 on Friday night to snap the Owls' 10-game home winning streak.
Louisiana Tech (6-2, 4-1 Conference USA), which is bowl eligible for the fifth straight season, scored two touchdowns in the final three minutes of the first half for a 14-10 lead.
Smith found Teddy Veal in the end zone to extend Louisiana Tech's lead to 21-13 with 8:27 remaining. FAU appeared to get the ball back with just over two minutes left, but Louisiana Tech's drive was extended after a 15-yard penalty on the punt.
Jaqwis Dancy rushed for 116 yards and one touchdown for Louisiana Tech. Defensive end Jaylon Ferguson broke the C-USA career sack record in the first half with his 38th.
Rafe Peavey made his first start of the season, replacing seven-game starter Chris Robison, and was 15-of-26 passing with an interception for FAU (3-5, 1-3). Devin Singletary carried it 19 times for 171 yards and one touchdown.
Singletary scored on the opening drive for his nation-leading 15th rushing touchdown of the season. He's tied with quarterbacks Eric Crouch and Colin Kaepernick for 11th in FBS history with 59 rushing touchdowns.

Morgan, Minnesota top Indiana 38-31 on late 67-yard TD pass
October 26, 2018
ShareFacebookTwitterDiggMySpace
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) Tanner Morgan was undeterred by the rough fourth quarter for Minnesota that featured 22 straight points by Indiana to tie the game.
If losing the quarterback competition in fall camp didn't faze him, this tight situation wasn't going to.
Morgan passed for 302 yards and three touchdowns in his first career start, including the tiebreaking 67-yard scoring toss to Rashod Bateman with 1:34 remaining that gave the Gophers a 38-31 victory over the Hoosiers on a rainy Friday night.
''We just continue to respond each and every time,'' Morgan said. ''Obviously in the second half there's things that we didn't do so hot, didn't do so well, but we found a way to finish.''
Morgan, a redshirt freshman who replaced injured true freshman Zack Annexstad, completed 17 of 24 attempts for the Gophers (4-4, 1-4 Big Ten).
After Peyton Ramsey capped a third fourth-quarter touchdown drive for the Hoosiers (4-5, 1-5) with a 2-point conversion pass to Donavan Hale, the teams traded punts.
When Minnesota regained possession the second time, Morgan dropped back on the first play and hit Bateman in stride after the true freshman used a double move to turn a slant pattern into a go route up the hash. Morgan had thrived on crisply thrown slants and posts all game, and Hoosiers redshirt freshman safety Juwan Burgess bit on the fake slant before watching Bateman blow by him.
''I felt good about the call, to be able to just sit there and take away what they'd hurt us on up to that point,'' Hoosiers coach Tom Allen said.
Then Ramsey lost a fumble on a sack by Carter Coughlin on the first play after that for Indiana, and Minnesota ran out the clock.
''I'm very proud of the way the guys played,'' said Gophers linebacker Blake Cashman, whose stop in the backfield of Scott on third-and-1 forced a punt right before the winning score. ''We know that in those situations we need to be able to keep our foot on the gas and finish the game out in a better way.''
Ramsey went 29 for 44 for 232 yards, two scores and two interceptions. He ran eight times for 57 yards, and Stevie Scott had 18 carries for 96 yards and a touchdown. Ramsey hit Hale for a 43-yard score and Ty Fryfogle for a 37-yard touchdown plus the 2-point conversion during the surge.
With Annexstad held out with ankle and abdominal injuries, Morgan looked like a seasoned senior while leading the Gophers on first-half touchdown drives of 77, 75 and 99 yards. Tyler Johnson caught two scoring passes and finished with 102 yards on five receptions, before departing in the fourth quarter with an injury.
''I'm really proud of this performance,'' coach P.J. Fleck said. ''Zack's not healthy. I want healthy people out there that can run our offense, and that's one reason why we didn't play him today. They're both capable.''
BROOKS IS BACK
Lost a little in the shuffle of the wild finish was the season debut for Minnesota running back Shannon Brooks, who tore his ACL in a winter workout. Brooks, who had 154 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries before hobbling off with an injury to his other leg, was about to cross the goal line again with the Gophers leading 31-9 late in the third quarter after true freshman Jordan Howden picked off Ramsey.
But Brooks lost his second fumble of the game, one of four Minnesota turnovers, and the Hoosiers recovered it at the 2. While Ramsey and Scott helped spark the Indiana rally, Morgan lost his touch over a series of six possessions that ended in three punts, two fumbles and an interception to give Indiana time to tie it.
Brooks was suspended for the previous game after an arrest on suspicion of assault that has yet to produce any charges. Fleck's plan is to limit him to four games this season to preserve his redshirt. Joining Rodney Smith, Bryce Williams and Mohamed Ibrahim, Brooks became the fourth different running back with a 100-yard game this season to set a program record.
THE TAKEAWAY
Indiana: For a program that has only one winning finish and three bowl game appearances in the last 23 years, this was simply the kind of contest they needed to win. Heck, they were even slight favorites on the road, by 2 1/2 points. Now, postseason play has become an improbable goal with a trip to fifth-ranked Michigan looming on Nov. 17 and the finale against surging rival Purdue.
''We don't have a lot of margin for error. We have to play at a fever pitch every time we take the field,'' Allen said. ''If we don't, it shows.''
Minnesota: Setting aside the sudden lapse that turned a romp into a touch-and-go finish, the Gophers emerged with an important feel-good, confidence-building win after a series of troubling performances in conference play. The remaining two victories needed for bowl-game eligibility are attainable with a trip to struggling Illinois followed by consecutive home games against Purdue and Northwestern.
''These are baby steps, infant steps, kid steps,'' Fleck said, ''but I'm really proud of the gutsy performance they had.''

Wyoming scores 21 unanswered in 3rd to win Border War
October 26, 2018

FORT COLLINS, Colo. (AP) Freshman Sean Chambers had his first career passing and rushing touchdowns and Wyoming eased past Colorado State 34-21 on Friday night in the Border War.
Wyoming scored 21 unanswered points in the third quarter - with two touchdowns in less than 30 seconds - for a 24-0 lead.
Chambers was 7-of-10 passing for 116 yards and two touchdowns and carried it 22 times for 101 yards and a score for Wyoming (3-6, 1-4 Mountain West Conference). Nico Evans added 176 rushing yards and a touchdown.
Wyoming scored its first touchdown on the road this season on the first drive of the second half as Chambers connected with Evans out of the backfield from 14 yards out.
A big hit by Marcus Epps on a safety blitz caused a Colorado State fumble and Chambers capped a 25-yard drive with an 8-yard sneak for a 17-0 lead. Cassh Maluia intercepted a pass on Colorado State's next play and Evans ran it in from 48 yards for a 23-0 lead.
Collin Hill threw for 333 yards with two interceptions for Colorado State (3-6, 2-3). Preston Williams had 10 catches for 126 yards. Wyatt Bryan, who is tied for the program lead with 51 career field goals, missed a 53-yarder on the final play of the first half.

No. 23 Utah rolls over UCLA 41-10 behind Moss' career night

PASADENA, Calif. (AP) Zack Moss rushed for a career-high 211 yards and scored three touchdowns, helping No. 23 Utah beat UCLA 41-10 on Friday night.
Britain Covey had 132 all-purpose yards and threw a touchdown pass for the Utes (6-2, 4-2 Pac-12), who won their fourth consecutive game. Armand Shyne ran for a touchdown and Matt Gay kicked two field goals.
''We got back to playing Utah football and we've been able to do a lot of good things,'' Moss said.
Joshua Kelley ran for 90 yards and a touchdown, but the Bruins (2-6, 2-3) were unable to get their third straight win. Wilton Speight was 20 of 40 for 164 yards passing.
Utah scored 28 straight points after falling behind 7-3 in the first quarter. Covey threw a 7-yard touchdown pass to tight end Cole Fotheringham off a reverse to make it 10-7 midway through the second quarter, and Moss had 1-yard touchdown runs in the second and third quarter.
''Some of those runs Zack made were sheer toughness and willpower,'' Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said. ''He's like a sledgehammer in between the tackles.''
Shyne's 2-yard touchdown run made it 31-7 after Julian Blackmon picked off Speight, who started for the first time since sustaining a back injury in the season opener against Cincinnati.
Utah scored 40 points in four consecutive conference games for the first time since 2004, when the undefeated team coached by Urban Meyer closed out the regular season with five such games as a member of the Mountain West.
''Everyone is just flowing in the right direction and we need to, especially at the back end of the year,'' Moss said. ''It's like we're fresh and everyone else is dead right now because we've worked so hard.''
Kelley had a 25-yard touchdown run on fourth-and-inches in the first quarter to give UCLA an early lead, but the Bruins defense could not keep Moss and Utah's rushing offense in check. Utah finished with 325 yards on the ground and averaged 6.5 yards per carry.
''We didn't tackle well in the first half, we didn't tackle well in the second half,'' UCLA coach Chip Kelly said.
Utah safety Marquise Blair was ejected for targeting in the third quarter and will miss the first half at Arizona State. Blair made helmet-to-helmet contact with Speight when he was sliding at the end of an 11-yard run.
THE TAKEAWAY
Utah: The Utes avoided the letdown that has kept them from winning the Pac-12 South in previous seasons. Utah had followed home wins over Southern California in 2014 and 2016 with road losses, but there was no such slip-up this season. If Utah can maintain dominant play on both sides of the line of scrimmage for three more conference games, coach Kyle Whittingham will finally reach the Pac-12 title game for the first time on Nov. 30.
UCLA: The Bruins still have work to do. Consecutive wins might have created the impression UCLA had turned the corner in Kelly's first season, but there were too many drops, penalties and missed tackles to take advantage when Utah appeared vulnerable early on.
POLL IMPLICATIONS
With a fourth straight impressive win, Utah will be in the Top 25 for the second straight week. A resume that includes narrow losses to No. 15 Washington and No. 14 Washington State might also get a closer examination from voters.

UCLA: The Bruins still have work to do. Consecutive wins might have created the impression UCLA had turned the corner in Kelly's first season, but there were too many drops, penalties and missed tackles to take advantage when Utah appeared vulnerable early on.
POLL IMPLICATIONS
With a fourth straight impressive win, Utah will be in the Top 25 for the second straight week. A resume that includes narrow losses to No. 15 Washington and No. 14 Washington State might also get a closer examination from voters.
UP NEXT
Utah: At Arizona State on Saturday, Nov. 3.
UCLA: At Oregon on Saturday, Nov. 3.

SEARS STARTS FOR USC
Redshirt freshman quarterback Jack Sears has been named USC?s starting quarterback for Saturday?s home tilt against Arizona State as J.T. Daniels hasn?t recovered from the concussion he suffered against Utah last week. Sears was third on the QB depth chart as recently as last week but second-stringer Matt Fink broke three ribs in relief of Daniels last week and is also out.
Sears comes in with a pretty high pedigree as he was ranked as Rivals? No. 117 overall prospect in 2017 after succeeding Sam Darnold at San Clemente High School. But he has yet to see game action at the collegiate level and it wouldn?t be a surprise to see the Trojans roll out a fairly conservative game plan for him. The total is currently set at 52 and the Under could be the play here.
LEWERKE OUT OF OFFICE
Reports out of East Lansing on Friday evening are that Michigan State starting quarterback Brian Lewerke won?t start and is unlikely to see the field against Purdue. The junior played through the shoulder injury he suffered two weeks ago against Penn State but that led to a horrendous stat line of 5-of-25 passing for 66 yards last week against Michigan. Assuming Lewerke can?t go, freshman Rocky Lombardi will get the call.
Lewerke is the second huge offensive loss for the Spartans this week as top receiver Felton Davis III tore his Achilles against Michigan and is out for the season. The line for this game opened at MSU -2.5 but has now shifted to MSU -1. Purdue is coming off a huge upset win over Ohio State and is in a classic letdown spot, which is likely why oddsmakers favor the Spartans, but the loss of their quarterback and top receiver seem like too much to overcome. Take Purdue as an underdog before the line the line shifts in the other direction.
NO HORNIBROOK FOR BADGERS
In keeping with the theme of big-time quarterbacks who aren?t playing this week, Wisconsin will be without starting quarterback Alex Hornibrook as he recovers from a concussion. Sophomore Jack Coan will make his first start and his first appearance of the season. Coan did get limited action as a freshman, going 5 of 5 for 36 yards over three different games.
Badgers coach Paul Chryst mentioned on Friday that the team knew about the possibility of Hornibook not playing at Northwestern on Saturday and has been preparing for the scenario this week. That will likely mean a lot of Jonathan Taylor as Chryst tries to protect his young QB. Taylor is in line to have a big day as the Badgers? offensive line should be able to push around Northwestern?s defensive front and open up big holes. The line opened at Wisconsin -6 and is now down to -4.5, making it the perfect time to jump on the favorites. Take the Badgers and the points.
EHLINGER GOOD TO GO
Finally, some good news for quarterbacks as Texas QB Sam Ehlinger (shoulder) is expected to start Saturday?s road game at Oklahoma State. Ehlinger was knocked out of Texas? last game on Oct. 13 against Baylor but the bye week was apparently enough time for him to heal. But how well his sprained shoulder will hold up when he takes a big it is a valid question and there?s a good chance we?ll find out on Saturday night as OSU leads the Big 12 in sacks.
Another question worth asking is about Texas? ability to win on the road. The Longhorns have had a comfortable schedule so far this season with only three games away from Austin: two neutral site games (the loss vs. Maryland in Landover and the win vs. Oklahoma at the Cotton Bowl) and one true road game (a 19-14 win over Kansas State where they didn?t cover the spread). They?ve been great at home but pretty average outside of Texas state lines. Oklahoma State is coming off its bye and has had extra time to get up for its biggest game of the season, making this the perfect spot for the home team to pull off the upset. We?re taking the Cowboys and the points with OSU +3.
TWO QBS FOR THE ORANGE?
Syracuse coach Dino Babers suggested late this week that both senior Eric Dungey and freshman Tommy DeVito could see snaps against NC State. He also noted that the two had basically split the first-team reps and that the ?major players? have been informed as to how he?ll use his QBs on Saturday. DeVito looked great in relief of the four-year starter Dungey last week, throwing three touchdowns in leading the Orange to an overtime win over North Carolina and we?d expect him to get the majority of the snaps against the Wolfpack.
Regardless of who?s under center on Saturday, we like the Orange but it?s more because of NC State?s below-average running game that?s ranked 12 of 14 teams in the ACC in yards per attempt ? and running the ball is what you want to do against Syracuse and its S&P+ run defense that?s ranked 101st in the nation. The Wolfpack are a throwing team and the Orange are solid against the pass at No. 32 in S&P+ pass defense; NC State, meanwhile, is No. 64 in the same metric. With a total of 65.5, oddsmakers are expecting a shootout and if it comes down to passing, we?ll take the team with the better pass defense and the home-field advantage. We?re backing Syracuse +2.5.

Essentials - Week 9
October 27, 2018
By Tony Mejia
It isn't a huge day for battles between ranked teams outside of the top game on this list, which carries enormous national consequences. It's weekends like this one that typically produce their share of surprises since you don't see the carnage coming. Here are the week's top matchups:
Georgia at Florida, 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS: New head coach Dan Mullen has reiinvigorated the Gators, which few saw coming after Kentucky ended more than three decades of futility against them in the second game of the season. Florida hasn't lost since, riding an improved Feleipe Franks, who will be looking for retribution after getting overwhelmend by the 'Dawgs in last year's rivalry game. Franks threw for 30 yards on 7-for-19 passing before he was benched and will have to try and navigate against man coverage with the nation's top corner, DeAndre Baker, attempting to render one side of the field a no-fly zone.
Mullen lost to Kirby Smart-coached Georgia 31-3 in the lone meeting between the two as head coaches, but Smart presided over a defense that consistently baffled Mississippi State when he was at Alabama. The Bulldogs lost every year from '08 to '15, getting outscored 231-67, scoring more than 10 points only once. We'll see if improved talent yields different results, but it should be pointed out that Dak Prescott lineup under center for Mullen in a couple of those losses. The Cocktail Party atmosphere in Jacksonville is always, um, interesting, but today's weather should be ideal. There will be some wind, but nothing too intrusive. Injury-wise, Florida looks relatively clean while Georgia will have DT Devonte Wyatt but will be without DaQuan Hawkins-Muncie. RB D'Andre Swift's ankle isn't expected to be an issue. The Gators had won three straight before last season's loss.
Texas at Oklahoma State, 8 p.m. ET, ABC: Getting Sam Ehlinger cleared was the primary objective in Austin this week, but even with the sophomore a go, uncertainty remains. It's hard to forecast whether his shoulder will hold up for four quarters, so we'll see if he can make all the throws he's usually able to sling. On the road, the decision may have been made that he's too valuable as a game manager not to have out there. In any case, backup Shane Buechele could be called upon at any moment .
Oklahoma State has disappointed most of the season, which has led to QB Taylor Cornelius getting the bulk of the criticism since he drove away one of the program's top receivers and has lost three of the last four, including two listless performances. Head coach Mike Gundy is sticking by him despite cries to pull the plug and try someone else, so the danger exists that the home crowd turns on the Pokes if things don't go well early. Oklahoma State has won six of eight in the series.
Washington State at Stanford, 7 p.m. ET, Pac-12: The Cougs look to continue what may be a special season after holding serve last week against Oregon but still have a lot of work to do considering this trip to Palo Alto is one of three where they're expected to be underdogs since a visit to Colorado and a season-ending home game against Washington must still be played. Washington State won last week despite missing corner Sean Harper Jr., but it would be nice to have him back here against Stanford's big receivers since he's the most physically imposing of Washington State's defensive backs.
You can't talk Stanford football in 2018 without discussing Bryce Love's availability. He's seemingly been limited by ankle issues all season as the decision not to turn pro hasn't gone as planned, but it's hard to imagine him missing a home game if he can go since those are dwindling. QB K.J. Costello has had an issue with his right throwing hand but is expected to start. Linebacker Joey Alfieri has joined safety Ben Sanders as a major loss for the Cardinal defense. Washington State has a great chance to beat Stanford for a third straight time after losing eight consecutive meetings.
Iowa at Penn State, 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPN: The Nittany Lions have been reduced to playing spoiler and need to hold serve at home just to avoid slipping under .500 in Big Ten play. Considering they were a few plays away from taking down Ohio State and barely won at Indiana last week, it's hard to know what to expect from Penn State. Top WR KJ Hamler is healthy, but counterpart Juwan Johnson has been limited by an ankle injury. He's still expected to suit up, which would be a boost.
The Hawkeyes haven't surrendered a rushing touchdown this season as they look to keep Miles Sanders and Trace McSorley from breaking that run. Substantial rain is expected in State College, so Iowa may get to perform in weather perfectly suited for its style as it comes off a 23-0 shutout in similar circumstance against Maryland. LB Jack Hockaday and RB Toren Young should both play. Iowa has lost four straight in the series and hasn't lost five in a row since the early 1970s. If it pulls off this upset, Iowa is likely to be favored in all its remaining games.
Arizona State at USC, 3:30 p.m. ET, ABC: The Trojans are expected to be without starting QB JT Daniels, who suffered a concussion and may not clear protocol in time to even suit up. Third-stringer Jack Sears will start since backup Matt Fink suffered a rib injury, so it's no surprise to see this line has dipped. USC will also be without many of its top defensive players due to injuries.
The Sun Devils have had an up-and-down first season under Herm Edwards but have been extremely competitive, losing all four of their games by seven points. QB Manny Wilkins has dealt with some physical challenges in his senior season but has proven reliable and will be looking for his first win against USC, which has won the last three meetings by 21 or more points each time.
Clemson at Florida State, 12 p.m. ET, ABC: Freshman QB Trevor Lawrence has made the departure of predecessor Kelly Bryant an afterthought with his solid play. As long as he stays healthy, the Tigers will be fine, but depth behind him is dicey. Fortunately, RB Travis Etienne has stepped up, benefiting from opponents having to respect Lawrence's arm and no longer being able to stack the box. He's scored three touchdowns in three straight games.
Willie Taggart's first season started terribly, so there was nowhere to go but up. Still, FSU has demonstrated improvement and comes off its best win, an impressive rout of Wake Forest after falling behind 10-0. The key to the 'Noles hanging around at home will be their porous offensive line. If they can give Deondre Francois time to make plays by holding off the nation's most talented defensive front, FSU has enough playmakers to make this interesting at home. It would be great to see how Lawrence holds up in a hostile atmosphere.
Wisconsin at Northwestern, 12 p.m. ET, FOX: The Badgers haven't been as consistent or as explosive as they were expected to be up front given all the talent they returned along the offensive line, but that hasn't prevented national rushing leader Jonathan Taylor from topping the 100-yard mark in eight straight games. He'll take aim at a typically stingy Northwestern defense.
The Wildcats can surprisingly take control of the Big Ten West entering November games against Notre Dame and fellow division frontrunner Iowa and may not have to face QB Alex Hornibrook, who may be sidelined with a concussion. Jack Coan would get his first career start if Hornibrook can't go.
Navy vs. Notre Dame, 8 p.m. ET, CBS: The Fighting Irish will have to navigate this potential pothole in the form of an offense they only run into once a year and a "neutral" environment in a big Navy city like San Diego. Fortunately, they did enjoy a bye week to aid in preparation, but there's a divide whether significant practice time against the triple option actually makes a substantial difference since it is so difficult to replicate and practice against. Cut blocks and varying formations make it a challenge that makes the spread here a bit of a stretch.
Since Ian Book took over for senior Brandon Wimbush at QB, Notre Dame's offense has averaged just short of 40 points per game to run the table and put it in the national playoff conversation. Games against Northwestern, FSU, Syracuse and USC remain after this one, but all of them are winnable so long as they can get out of this one unscathed, both on the scoreboard and in terms of injuries. These institutions have played annually since 1927 and Navy has typically been crushed. They did win in a neutral site in 2016.
Others to watch: Purdue at Michigan State, N.C. State at Syracuse, San Diego State at Nevada, Texas Tech at Iowa State, Washington at Cal, Texas A&M at Mississippi State, Oregon at Arizona, Kansas State at Oklahoma, North Carolina at Virginia, Duke at Pittsburgh, Northern Illinois at BYU, Boise State at Air Force, Tennessee at South Carolina

If it pulls off this upset, Iowa is likely to be favored in all its remaining games.
Arizona State at USC, 3:30 p.m. ET, ABC: The Trojans are expected to be without starting QB JT Daniels, who suffered a concussion and may not clear protocol in time to even suit up. Third-stringer Jack Sears will start since backup Matt Fink suffered a rib injury, so it's no surprise to see this line has dipped. USC will also be without many of its top defensive players due to injuries.
The Sun Devils have had an up-and-down first season under Herm Edwards but have been extremely competitive, losing all four of their games by seven points. QB Manny Wilkins has dealt with some physical challenges in his senior season but has proven reliable and will be looking for his first win against USC, which has won the last three meetings by 21 or more points each time.
Clemson at Florida State, 12 p.m. ET, ABC: Freshman QB Trevor Lawrence has made the departure of predecessor Kelly Bryant an afterthought with his solid play. As long as he stays healthy, the Tigers will be fine, but depth behind him is dicey. Fortunately, RB Travis Etienne has stepped up, benefiting from opponents having to respect Lawrence's arm and no longer being able to stack the box. He's scored three touchdowns in three straight games.
Willie Taggart's first season started terribly, so there was nowhere to go but up. Still, FSU has demonstrated improvement and comes off its best win, an impressive rout of Wake Forest after falling behind 10-0. The key to the 'Noles hanging around at home will be their porous offensive line. If they can give Deondre Francois time to make plays by holding off the nation's most talented defensive front, FSU has enough playmakers to make this interesting at home. It would be great to see how Lawrence holds up in a hostile atmosphere.
Wisconsin at Northwestern, 12 p.m. ET, FOX: The Badgers haven't been as consistent or as explosive as they were expected to be up front given all the talent they returned along the offensive line, but that hasn't prevented national rushing leader Jonathan Taylor from topping the 100-yard mark in eight straight games. He'll take aim at a typically stingy Northwestern defense.
The Wildcats can surprisingly take control of the Big Ten West entering November games against Notre Dame and fellow division frontrunner Iowa and may not have to face QB Alex Hornibrook, who may be sidelined with a concussion. Jack Coan would get his first career start if Hornibrook can't go.
Navy vs. Notre Dame, 8 p.m. ET, CBS: The Fighting Irish will have to navigate this potential pothole in the form of an offense they only run into once a year and a "neutral" environment in a big Navy city like San Diego. Fortunately, they did enjoy a bye week to aid in preparation, but there's a divide whether significant practice time against the triple option actually makes a substantial difference since it is so difficult to replicate and practice against. Cut blocks and varying formations make it a challenge that makes the spread here a bit of a stretch.
Since Ian Book took over for senior Brandon Wimbush at QB, Notre Dame's offense has averaged just short of 40 points per game to run the table and put it in the national playoff conversation. Games against Northwestern, FSU, Syracuse and USC remain after this one, but all of them are winnable so long as they can get out of this one unscathed, both on the scoreboard and in terms of injuries. These institutions have played annually since 1927 and Navy has typically been crushed. They did win in a neutral site in 2016.

Sunday?s List of 13: Wrapping up a college football Saturday
13) Kentucky 15, Missouri 14? Mizzou got called for pass interference in the end zone on the last play of the game, so Kentucky got another play, threw a 2-yard TD pass, and now Wildcats are 7-1.
Missouri had zero first downs in the second half- none.
12) Cincinnati 26, SMU 20 OT? Bearcats kicked 41-yard FG at the gun to force OT, then ran back an INT 86 yards for the game-winning TD in overtime. That hasn?t happened much, where a defensive score decided a game in overtime.
11) Kansas 27, TCU 26? Horned Frogs fumbled on the Kansas 10-yard line in last 2:00, screwing up what would at least have been the game-tying FG.
From 2015-17, Jayhawks were 3-33; this year, they?re 3-5, so big improvement for them.
In their last six games, TCU is -14 in turnovers (2-16).
10) Iowa State 40, Texas Tech 31? Cyclone fans better enjoy this, because their coach Matt Campbell ain?t going to be in Ames much longer? the big-$$$ people will come calling for him, and soon, then the Iowa State revival will be in jeopardy.
This game was 31-all with under 5:00 left when Tech got called for intentional grounding in their own end zone, which out ISU up 33-31. On the ensuing series, Cyclones had 3rd-and-9 but threw a 48-yard TD pass, putting the game out of reach.
Lot of points for a game with two freshman QB?s playing.
9) Clemson 59, Florida State 10? Oy. This is the worst Florida State team since Bobby Bowden got to Tallahassee over 40 years ago. Willie Taggart needs to have a seriously positive run of good recruiting; this game tied a 49-0 loss to Florida in 1973 as the worst loss in FSU history.
8) Penn State 30, Iowa 24? Iowa had the ball on Penn State?s 3-yard line with 3:17 left, but threw a hideous INT where instead of calling a timeout to get organized, Iowa?s QB ran a play and QB/WR weren?t on the same page, and Penn State got the clinching INT.
Hawkeyes had two safeties in first 16:39 of this game; don?t see that a lot; Iowa?s punter also threw a TD on a fake FG. Rough day for Iowa?s QB; in the first half, they ran a play action fake and had a TE wide-open (by 20 yards) for an easy TD, but the QB overthrew the pass.
7) Upsets of the Week:
? Oregon State (+23.5) 41, Colorado 34
? Kansas (+13.5) 27, TCU 26
? California (+10.5) 12, Washington 10
? Georgia Southern (+8) 34, Appalachian State 14
? Northern Illinois (+7.5) 7, BYU 6
? Kentucky (+7) 15, Missouri 14
? Charlotte (+6.5) 20, Southern Miss 17
? Northwestern (+6) 31, Wisconsin 17
6) Georgia Tech 49, Virginia Tech 28? We mentioned how Yellow Jackets didn?t complete a pass in this game Thursday; last college team to score 40+ points in a road game without completing a pass? Ohio Bobcats, in 2002, in a 50-0 win at Kent State.
5) Oregon State 41, Colorado 34 OT? Horrific loss for Colorado; Buffs led this game 31-3 with 9:00 left in third quarter, but lose as a 23-point favorite.
4) Wake Forest 56, Louisville 35? Few years ago, Louisville coach Petrino pulled a scholarship from a RB named Matt Colburn right before Signing Day, leaving the kid without a place to play ball. Wake Forest wound up signing him; Saturday, Colburn ran for 202 yards and three TD?s??against Louisville.
3) Arizona State 38, USC 35? Go-ahead TD was a 92-yard punt return for a TD by N?Keal Harry late in 3rd quarter where USC appeared to have lot of big guys covering the punt? lot of numbers in the 70?s chasing a very fast guy, which seldom ends well for the team that kicked.
Trojans are 4-4; the natives are restless. coach Helton?s seat is very hot- they scored 35 points with their 3rd-string QB playing, but one TD was a punt return, another a trick play.
2) Georgia 36, Florida 17? Dawgs outgained Florida 429-275, and the Gators had won five in a row coming in. All seven of Georgia?s wins are by 14+ points. Top of the SEC is a meat grinder.
1) LA led 4-0 after six innings, but the Dodger bullpen imploded and now Boston leads the World Series 3-1, with Game 5 tonight.
Top 6 picks in Week 8 of Westgate SuperBook NFL handicapping contest (3,123 entries)

4) Wake Forest 56, Louisville 35? Few years ago, Louisville coach Petrino pulled a scholarship from a RB named Matt Colburn right before Signing Day, leaving the kid without a place to play ball. Wake Forest wound up signing him; Saturday, Colburn ran for 202 yards and three TD?s??against Louisville.
3) Arizona State 38, USC 35? Go-ahead TD was a 92-yard punt return for a TD by N?Keal Harry late in 3rd quarter where USC appeared to have lot of big guys covering the punt? lot of numbers in the 70?s chasing a very fast guy, which seldom ends well for the team that kicked.
Trojans are 4-4; the natives are restless. coach Helton?s seat is very hot- they scored 35 points with their 3rd-string QB playing, but one TD was a punt return, another a trick play.
2) Georgia 36, Florida 17? Dawgs outgained Florida 429-275, and the Gators had won five in a row coming in. All seven of Georgia?s wins are by 14+ points. Top of the SEC is a meat grinder.
1) LA led 4-0 after six innings, but the Dodger bullpen imploded and now Boston leads the World Series 3-1, with Game 5 tonight.

Browns? OC Freddie Kitchens
Tuesday?s quiz
Terry Francona and John Farrell both won World Series managing the Red Sox; who managed the Red Sox for one season, in between Francona and Farrell?
Monday?s quiz
Tennessee Volunteers play their home football games in Neyland Stadium.
Sunday?s quiz
Utah is known as the Beehive State.
**********************
Tuesday?s List of 13: Nobody asked me, but??.
13) Rough week to be a coach in Cleveland; Browns fired Hue Jackson Monday, as well as OC Todd Haley. DC Gregg Williams is now the interim coach.
Freddie Kitchens is the new OC; saw an NFL Films segment on Kitchens Monday, on how beloved he is by players he has coached. In these turbulent times, it was great to see.
12) Cleveland Cavaliers started 0-6, then quickly fired coach Tyronn Lue, like it was Lue?s fault that Lebron James skipped town. What did they think was going to happen? Lue gets $13M to take a hike, so at least he walks away with a championship ring and a smile on his face.
11) Terry Francona, John Farrell and Alex Cora all won the World Series in their first year managing the Red Sox.
10) Mets hired agent Brodie Van Wagenen to run their franchise; not sure if that is a good idea or not, but Van Wagenen?s wife?s stepfather is Neil Armstrong, the first man to walk on the moon, so he has that going for him.
9) Dallas Cowboys fired offensive line coach Paul Alexander less than halfway into his first season with the team, the first time HC Jason Garrett fired an assistant coach during a season.
Former Cowboys OL Marc Colombo, who had served as assistant OL coach since 2016, will take over as OL coach. A former Cowboys? OL coach, 75-year old Hudson Houck is back to work with Colombo and the offensive staff in an advisory role.
USC also fired their offensive line coach Monday; HC Clay Helton is taking over play calling duties, too.
8) Buccaneers named Ryan Fitzpatrick as its starting QB for Sunday?s game at Carolina.
7) On Sunday, Los Angeles became the first city ever to host an MLB (Dodgers), NFL (Rams), NBA (Clippers), and NHL (Kings) game, all on the same day. Those games all happened within five miles of each other.
6) Syracuse football team is ranked in the Top 25 for the first time since 2001.
5) The Mets hired Yoenis Cespedes? agent to run their franchise; he has never run a ball club before, but obviously has dealt with the Wilpons before, dealing with the Cespedes contract.
I?m guessing that behind closed doors, the Mets? front office would make a great reality show, and that isn?t a compliment.
4) Game 3 of the World Series lasted 7:20; in 1939, New York swept the Reds 4-0 in the Series- the four games COMBINED lasted 7:04. Seriously.
Boston?s 1-4 batters Friday went a combined 0-28 at the plate; the most hitless AB in any baseball game ? regular or postseason, since 1920 by a team?s 1-4 hitters was 0-24 by the 1963 Milwaukee Braves against the Houston Colt 45?s (now the Astros).
3) It surprised me that no team down 3-0 in a World Series has ever even forced a Game 6, much less won the Series. You?d think by this time, just about everything has happened.
2) Red Sox won the World Series, won 119 games; their GM west to Western Michigan, a state school. Just thought I?d mention that.
1) Dodgers? manager Dave Roberts is a free agent; his contract is up. If you owned the Dodgers, would you give him a new deal? Guy just won the NL pennant two years in a row-I?d re-sign him, but the longer he goes without a deal, the more you wonder.

Top 25 Notes
-- The Pac-12 continues to cannibalize itself, and now only Washington State has a remote shot at a playoff spot. That's because Washington lost again, this time to an unranked California side, while Oregon was curb-stomped by Arizona in the desert by a 44-15 score. Washington State won by a 41-38 score at Stanford, and it's likely that Wazzu, Utah and maybe Washington make the Top 25 rankings this week.
-- It was a battle between ranked teams in the Big Ten, and Iowa-Penn State turned out to be a good game. The Nittany Lions picked up the 30-24 win against the Hawkeyes. Penn State booted a field goal to push the total over (52.5) with 8:24, but they were unable to add to their total as Iowa hung on for the cover.
-- Clemson went down to Florida State and absolutely killed the Seminoles. That's not an exaggeration, either. The 59-10 win was FSU's worst-ever loss on their home field, and it was so bad in the second half that the telecast caught an old man reading a book with no shirt on. Not a pretty scene, literally and figuratively. The mighty have fallen hard in the Panhandle of Florida.
-- In Jacksonville, Florida was dropped in the Cocktail Party by Georgia, setting up a winner-take-all for the SEC East in Lexington. Wait, wuuuuut? Lexington? Yep, Kentucky scratched out an ugly, defensive last-second victory at Missouri, 15-14. Vegas had the Wildcats as 7 1/2-point 'dogs, and for about 55 minutes they looked absolutely correct. But the Wildcats ripped off a punt return for score, then a touchdown with :00 on the clock to steal one in Mizzou. The Wildcats are now 7-1 SU, but still just 4-4 ATS. The 'under' has hit in five in a row for UK.
Big Five Conference Report (ACC, Big 10, Big 12, Pac-12, SEC)
-- N.C. State-Syracuse was like watching a video game. The total (65) was set rather high for an ACC game, but obviously not nearly high enough. The Wolfpack and Orange exchanged haymakers and this was a three-point game late into the fourth quarter before the Orange pulled away for a 51-41 win and cover. ... Wake Forest took care of Louisville 56-35 for their first ACC victory and just their second cover in eight outings. The 'over' is now 6-1 in the past seven for the Deacs.
-- Michigan State was an underdog at home against red-hot Purdue, but dinged up Sparty told the Boilers to slow their roll. The Spartans held off the Boilermakers 23-13 for just their third cover in eight outings. The 'under' has cashed in a season-high three in a row for MSU. ... Maryland pounded Illinois by a 63-33 count, rebounding after being blanked at Iowa last week. The Terps have alternated straight-up wins and losses and covers and non-covers in each of their first seven games so far.
-- Iowa State took care of business against Texas Tech, 40-31. The Red Raiders fired out to a 10-0 lead, and they had a 17-14 lead at halftime. In addition, it was 31-31 late until Texas Tech's freshman QB was whistled for an intentional grounding call in the end zone for a safety, and then a late interception cost side bettors a cover. ... Oklahoma State rolled out to a 31-14 halftime lead, and they were up 10 after three on Texas. The Longhorns cut the lead to three, but could get no closer, losing 38-35. With the loss the Longhorns are likely eliminated from the playoff conversation, with Oklahoma still alive, although the light is flickering.
-- Oregon State headed to Boulder as 24 1/2-point underdogs, and they fell behind 31-10 heading to the fourth quarter. However, Colorado folded, and they folded hard. The Beavers outscored the Buffs 24-3 in the final quarter, and 7-0 in OT for the miracle victory. Technically, the Beavs are still alive for bowl eligibility, but that will take another miracle. ... Utah stepped all over UCLA by a 41-10 score in the Rose Bowl on Friday night. This game was a disappointment if you were holding an 'over' (54.5) ticket.
-- Mississippi State was a one-point favorite at home against Texas A&M, which raised some eyebrows. The Bulldogs got it done at home, however, pulling away with a 14-0 fourth quarter to win it 28-13. The Aggies are likely still hearing cowbells ringing in their ears. ... Tennessee gave South Carolina all they could handle, but in the end the Gamecocks hung on for the home win, but they never threatened to cover. They're 3-4 ATS, and they haven't had consecutive covers all season. The 'under' is 4-1 in the past five for the 'Cocks.
Bad Beats
-- The 'under' (52) looked to be in OK shape with just 37 points on the board in Florida-Georgia through three quarters. However, UGA push the total over by just one point with a TD at 4:29 to take a 36-17 lead, which is what the game ended up.
-- If you were holding a moneyline ticket with Southern Methodist, ouch. They were tied up 20-20 with Cincinnati in OT. The Mustangs had the ball first and they were looking to take the lead in the extra session. However, the Bearcats picked it off and returned it for a pick-six to spoil the upset bid and dreams of SMU moneyliners.
-- Florida International-Western Kentucky (54) looked like a certain under, with FIU up 28-3 heading to the fourth quarter. However, Western scored a touchdown and two-point conversion with 1:55 left to make it 48. Still, it should have ended up under, but D'Vonte Price for FIU ripped off a 58-yard touchdown just 20 seconds after the onside kick attempt, turning a sure under into a losing ticket.
-- Going back to Thursday's Sun Belt (Fun Belt!) action, the rawest bad beat of the weekend happened in Statesboro, Ga. Georgia Southern was routing Appalachian State 34-7, scoring a TD with 3:28 to go in regulation. The 'under' (47.5) looked to be in good shape, but the Mountaineers scored with just :10 left to push the total over.

4th Quarter Covers - Week 9
Joe Nelson
Glancing at the scoreboard won?t tell you the whole story in most games. Here are some of the games that went down to the wire relative to the spread in the fourth quarter last week in the ninth big college football weekend to close October.
Each week there are several teams that cover despite not necessarily deserving it, as well as other teams that played much better than the final score shows.
Minnesota (+2?) 38, Indiana 31: Off to a 0-4 Big Ten start after a 3-0 non-conference run, Minnesota played behind backup quarterback Tanner Morgan with strong results, leading 21-9 at halftime and extending that lead to 31-9 through three quarters as the underdog cover seemed all but certain. The Hoosiers hit a big play early in the fourth to cut the margin to 31-15, failing going for two and Minnesota followed with a fumble to hand Indiana good field position. Six plays later the Hoosiers were within a single-score getting a touchdown and the two-point conversion to trail 31-23 with still 10 minutes remaining. The quarterbacks traded interceptions and Minnesota had to punt in rainy conditions to give Indiana the ball back near midfield with about seven minutes remaining. Peyton Ramsey led the touchdown drive and with another successful two-point conversion, the game was tied with about four minutes to go. Minnesota again had a 3-and-out with all the momentum in favor of Indiana but the Hoosiers opted to run three times despite the success in the passing game and didn?t pick up a first down. Minnesota got the ball back with fewer than two minutes on the clock and took a shot on 1st down, connecting for a 67-yard touchdown. Ramsey was sacked on 1st down with Minnesota recovering a fumble to seal the win despite the wild fourth quarter collapse.
Pittsburgh (+2?) 54, Duke 45: Duke led 21-10 late in the second quarter before Pittsburgh connected for a 50-yard touchdown pass to climb within four at halftime. Duke led by seven through three quarters before the game was tied. Duke settled for a short field goal with eight minutes remaining to lead by three but Pittsburgh used a nice kickoff return to tie the game with a 48-yard field goal with just over two minutes remaining. Duke was forced to punt and the Panthers managed to score with just five seconds remaining. It didn?t impact the outcome but the Panthers added two points with a safety after a Duke fumble on the final kickoff trying to set-up a miracle return with a lateral.
Massachusetts (-3?) 22, Connecticut 17: This line opened as high as -6 but came down steadily throughout the week. A pair of northeastern squads desperate for a win faced off with a surprisingly low scoring first half with just 10 points. Connecticut led 14-9 through three quarters and extended the advantage to 17-9 in the fourth. Massachusetts hit a 67-yard touchdown to climb within two, failing going for two and the tie. Massachusetts forced a 3-and-out on defense and then went 81 yards on its next possession to take a five-point edge which held for the final margin.
Coastal Carolina (-2?) 37, Georgia State 34: The Chanticleers were favored by -3? or -3 much of the week before sliding to -2? by kickoff. It didn?t seem likely to matter with a 17-0 start for Coastal Carolina. Georgia State made a rally with three third quarter touchdowns to lead 34-27 but Coastal Carolina regrouped in the fourth to tie the game early in the final quarter with a 12-play touchdown drive. Coastal Carolina got the ball back in good field position and after reaching the 5-yard-line settled for a short field goal to lead by just three. Georgia State threatened to extend the game reaching the 36-yard-line but fell short going for it on 4th down.
Oregon State (+26) 41, Colorado 34: When a nearly four-touchdown underdog wins outright there generally isn?t against-the-spread drama but Colorado led 31-3 early in the third quarter of this game to sit past the heavy favorite spread. The Beavers didn?t mail it in however and had climbed to within 14 by the first minute of the fourth quarter. Up 14 Colorado opted to go for it on 4th-and-1 just across midfield on its next possession and came up short and Oregon State added a field goal and an eight-point touchdown to suddenly sit within three with seven minutes to go. Colorado reached the Oregon State 10-yard-line before a holding penalty and settled for a field goal to lead by six, allowing Oregon State to seemingly win the game with a touchdown in the final minute. The extra-point was blocked however in a stunning finish. Colorado picked up 39 yards in the final seconds to get off a 53-yard field goal attempt but the kick missed an overtime was needed. The Beavers went first and delivered seven and Colorado was unable to match it.
Arizona State (+3) 38, USC 35: USC trailed by 10 at halftime behind Jack Sears but the Trojans scored two touchdowns in 25 seconds of game clock early in the third quarter. Late in the third Arizona State delivered a 92-yard punt return touchdown to lead by three before a tense final quarter. USC opted to go for it on 4th-and-1 from the Arizona State 20-yard-line with about 10 minutes remaining but the Sun Devils got the stop. After a pair of punts Arizona State put the game away with quarterback Manny Wilkins scrambling for a 45-yard touchdown run in the final two minutes. USC would score in the final seconds to close within three but didn?t get the on-side kick attempt.
Georgia (-7) 36, Florida 17: Florida dug a hole with early turnovers in the big SEC East matchup but only trailed by six at halftime. The Gators briefly took the lead in the second half but Georgia added nine points to lead 23-14 through three quarters with the field goal for Georgia coming after a Florida fumble at its own 1-yard-line as Georgia had a 3-0 turnover edge in the game. Florida added a field goal in the fourth to sit within the number down by six but the Bulldogs turned in two late touchdown drives to win by 19 points.
Kentucky (+7?) 15, Missouri 14: Missouri led 14-3 through three quarters and appeared to get the stop of the game holding Kentucky on 4th-and-short from the 3-yard-line halfway through the fourth quarter to hold the 11-point edge for the home favorite. Missouri looked to burn some clock with the lead and the limited Kentucky offense, running the ball three times before punting but the Wildcats got back in the game with a 67-yard punt return touchdown. Kentucky went for two and failed but was within the number down five. Kentucky would get the ball back with just over four minutes remaining but had an interception taking a deep shot. Missouri only was able to burn a minute of clock and had an incomplete pass to stop the clock on 3rd-and-2. Kentucky was punned at its own 19 with just over a minute remaining and took a sack on 1st down. The Wildcats were able to get down the field and eventually wound up with an untimed down from the 2-yard-line after a pass interference call. Terry Wilson hit C.J. Conrad for the winning score.
Houston (-10) 57, South Florida 36: The big AAC showdown lived up to its billing with a back-and-forth affair. Houston led 28-21 at halftime but South Florida got five points early in the third quarter with a safety and a short field goal to climb within two on a spread that climbed from +7? to +10. 21 points were exchanged in the rest of the third quarter as Houston led 43-36 heading into the fourth. Houston would pull away in the final frame with two touchdowns while South Florida had two fourth quarter turnovers as the Cougars escaped with the cover in a game with 1,149 total yards.
Penn State (-5) 30, Iowa 24: The line on this game was near -6 most of the week but hit -6? and -5? at times before landing at -5. The underdog was promising as Iowa took a 12-0 early lead but Penn State battled back to reach a 17-17 tie by halftime. Penn State took over in the third quarter with a 51-yard run from Trace McSorley and a long field goal for a 10-point advantage. Iowa got the break it needed to get back in the game with a pick-6 in the fourth quarter to trail by three but a long kickoff return put Penn State in business to extend its lead though the Lions ultimately settled for a short field goal to lead by six, right on the number for many. Iowa reached the Penn State 3-yard-line on its next possession but Nate Stanley was intercepted on 1st-and-goal. The Hawkeyes got a final opportunity and went 48 yards in the final minute but stalled just across midfield and ran out of time.
Iowa State (-6) 40, Texas Tech 31: The spread on the Cyclones climbed from -3? to -6 and it looked like it might matter as a Texas Tech tied the game in the fourth quarter with a fumble recovery touchdown. The Cyclones got an interception later in the fourth quarter to keep the game tied and then after pinning Texas Tech deep, Iowa State took the lead with a safety. The 33-31 edge wasn?t enough to cover but Iowa State hit a 48-yard touchdown pass with just over two minutes to go to lead by nine and then intercepted Alan Bowman again in Iowa State territory to hang on to the win and cover in a key Big XII game.
UAB (-15?) 19, UTEP 0: The winless Miners attracted some attention as this spread fell from opening at -17?. UTAB led 10-0 in the first quarter but did not score again until a third quarter safety and the Blazers led just 12-0 well into the fourth quarter. UTEP missed a field goal in late in the third but wasn?t a significant scoring threat and with four minutes remaining UAB snuck past the spread with a late touchdown.
Washington State (+3) 41, Stanford 38: Perfect ATS this season, Washington State was dogged at Stanford and trailed by 11 at halftime and by seven through three quarters. Washington State tied the game early in the fourth and then stopped Stanford going for it on 4th down in long field goal range with nine minutes remaining. Washington State converted a similar 4th down try on its next possession and eventually found the end zone to go up by seven with four minutes to go. Stanford answered and tied the game with more than a minute remaining but Washington State did enough to hit a 42-yard field goal to take a three-point lead. Stanford reached midfield in the final seconds but ran out of time as the Cougars took the Pac-12 North lead.
Tulane (-2) 24, Tulsa 17: Tulsa never trailed in this game until the final score but was unable to pull away despite having a 10-point lead in the second half. Tulane tied the game with 12 minutes to go and then Tulsa fumbled halfway through the fourth quarter in Tulane territory. Quarterback Justin McMillan broke free for a 39-yard touchdown run with fewer than four minutes to go to give Tulane its first lead in the game and Tulsa was unable to answer, going backwards after reaching Tulane territory on its final drive.
UL-Lafayette (+3) 47, Arkansas State 43: UL-Lafayette never trailed in the first three quarters but Arkansas State hit a 73-yard touchdown pass early in the fourth to move in front 35-34. UL-Lafayette answered quickly but Arkansas State would respond as well, making its two-point conversion to go up three after the Ragin? Cajuns were unable to get its own conversion attempt on the previous score. UL-Lafayette burned nearly five minutes in 11 plays before turning in the game-winning touchdown with just over a minute to go.
Boise State (-10) 48, Air Force 38: These Mountain West foes were tied at halftime before Boise State pulled ahead by 10 early in the fourth quarter. Air Force cut the margin to three with five minutes to go but the Broncos responded with a 61-yard touchdown pass to close right on the number with a 10-point win.
Mississippi State (-1) 28, Texas A&M 13: There were many possible outcomes with the Bulldogs leading by one through three quarters with the spread on this game bouncing around before kickoff. Mississippi State went up by eight early in the fourth quarter and with just over two minutes remaining sealed the win with an interception in the end zone to hold A&M off the board. Two plays later the Bulldogs got a long run from Nick Fitzgerald to pad the final margin.
Notre Dame (-22?) 44, Navy 22: Notre Dame led 27-0 at halftime but Navy put forth a good effort in the second half to put up 22 points, climbing to within two scores early in the fourth quarter with a two-point conversion successful. The Irish answered to lead by 22 while Navy turned it over in Notre Dame territory on its next two possessions. Notre Dame didn?t add points as Navy barely held on with an underdog spread that dipped from 24 to 22?.

Glancing at the scoreboard won?t tell you the whole story in most games. Here are some of the games that went down to the wire relative to the spread in the fourth quarter last week in the ninth big college football weekend to close October.
Each week there are several teams that cover despite not necessarily deserving it, as well as other teams that played much better than the final score shows.
Minnesota (+2?) 38, Indiana 31: Off to a 0-4 Big Ten start after a 3-0 non-conference run, Minnesota played behind backup quarterback Tanner Morgan with strong results, leading 21-9 at halftime and extending that lead to 31-9 through three quarters as the underdog cover seemed all but certain. The Hoosiers hit a big play early in the fourth to cut the margin to 31-15, failing going for two and Minnesota followed with a fumble to hand Indiana good field position. Six plays later the Hoosiers were within a single-score getting a touchdown and the two-point conversion to trail 31-23 with still 10 minutes remaining. The quarterbacks traded interceptions and Minnesota had to punt in rainy conditions to give Indiana the ball back near midfield with about seven minutes remaining. Peyton Ramsey led the touchdown drive and with another successful two-point conversion, the game was tied with about four minutes to go. Minnesota again had a 3-and-out with all the momentum in favor of Indiana but the Hoosiers opted to run three times despite the success in the passing game and didn?t pick up a first down. Minnesota got the ball back with fewer than two minutes on the clock and took a shot on 1st down, connecting for a 67-yard touchdown. Ramsey was sacked on 1st down with Minnesota recovering a fumble to seal the win despite the wild fourth quarter collapse.
Pittsburgh (+2?) 54, Duke 45: Duke led 21-10 late in the second quarter before Pittsburgh connected for a 50-yard touchdown pass to climb within four at halftime. Duke led by seven through three quarters before the game was tied. Duke settled for a short field goal with eight minutes remaining to lead by three but Pittsburgh used a nice kickoff return to tie the game with a 48-yard field goal with just over two minutes remaining. Duke was forced to punt and the Panthers managed to score with just five seconds remaining. It didn?t impact the outcome but the Panthers added two points with a safety after a Duke fumble on the final kickoff trying to set-up a miracle return with a lateral.
Massachusetts (-3?) 22, Connecticut 17: This line opened as high as -6 but came down steadily throughout the week. A pair of northeastern squads desperate for a win faced off with a surprisingly low scoring first half with just 10 points. Connecticut led 14-9 through three quarters and extended the advantage to 17-9 in the fourth. Massachusetts hit a 67-yard touchdown to climb within two, failing going for two and the tie. Massachusetts forced a 3-and-out on defense and then went 81 yards on its next possession to take a five-point edge which held for the final margin.
Coastal Carolina (-2?) 37, Georgia State 34: The Chanticleers were favored by -3? or -3 much of the week before sliding to -2? by kickoff. It didn?t seem likely to matter with a 17-0 start for Coastal Carolina. Georgia State made a rally with three third quarter touchdowns to lead 34-27 but Coastal Carolina regrouped in the fourth to tie the game early in the final quarter with a 12-play touchdown drive. Coastal Carolina got the ball back in good field position and after reaching the 5-yard-line settled for a short field goal to lead by just three. Georgia State threatened to extend the game reaching the 36-yard-line but fell short going for it on 4th down.
Oregon State (+26) 41, Colorado 34: When a nearly four-touchdown underdog wins outright there generally isn?t against-the-spread drama but Colorado led 31-3 early in the third quarter of this game to sit past the heavy favorite spread. The Beavers didn?t mail it in however and had climbed to within 14 by the first minute of the fourth quarter. Up 14 Colorado opted to go for it on 4th-and-1 just across midfield on its next possession and came up short and Oregon State added a field goal and an eight-point touchdown to suddenly sit within three with seven minutes to go. Colorado reached the Oregon State 10-yard-line before a holding penalty and settled for a field goal to lead by six, allowing Oregon State to seemingly win the game with a touchdown in the final minute. The extra-point was blocked however in a stunning finish. Colorado picked up 39 yards in the final seconds to get off a 53-yard field goal attempt but the kick missed an overtime was needed. The Beavers went first and delivered seven and Colorado was unable to match it.
Arizona State (+3) 38, USC 35: USC trailed by 10 at halftime behind Jack Sears but the Trojans scored two touchdowns in 25 seconds of game clock early in the third quarter. Late in the third Arizona State delivered a 92-yard punt return touchdown to lead by three before a tense final quarter. USC opted to go for it on 4th-and-1 from the Arizona State 20-yard-line with about 10 minutes remaining but the Sun Devils got the stop. After a pair of punts Arizona State put the game away with quarterback Manny Wilkins scrambling for a 45-yard touchdown run in the final two minutes. USC would score in the final seconds to close within three but didn?t get the on-side kick attempt.
Georgia (-7) 36, Florida 17: Florida dug a hole with early turnovers in the big SEC East matchup but only trailed by six at halftime. The Gators briefly took the lead in the second half but Georgia added nine points to lead 23-14 through three quarters with the field goal for Georgia coming after a Florida fumble at its own 1-yard-line as Georgia had a 3-0 turnover edge in the game. Florida added a field goal in the fourth to sit within the number down by six but the Bulldogs turned in two late touchdown drives to win by 19 points.
Kentucky (+7?) 15, Missouri 14: Missouri led 14-3 through three quarters and appeared to get the stop of the game holding Kentucky on 4th-and-short from the 3-yard-line halfway through the fourth quarter to hold the 11-point edge for the home favorite. Missouri looked to burn some clock with the lead and the limited Kentucky offense, running the ball three times before punting but the Wildcats got back in the game with a 67-yard punt return touchdown. Kentucky went for two and failed but was within the number down five. Kentucky would get the ball back with just over four minutes remaining but had an interception taking a deep shot. Missouri only was able to burn a minute of clock and had an incomplete pass to stop the clock on 3rd-and-2. Kentucky was punned at its own 19 with just over a minute remaining and took a sack on 1st down. The Wildcats were able to get down the field and eventually wound up with an untimed down from the 2-yard-line after a pass interference call. Terry Wilson hit C.J. Conrad for the winning score.
Houston (-10) 57, South Florida 36: The big AAC showdown lived up to its billing with a back-and-forth affair. Houston led 28-21 at halftime but South Florida got five points early in the third quarter with a safety and a short field goal to climb within two on a spread that climbed from +7? to +10. 21 points were exchanged in the rest of the third quarter as Houston led 43-36 heading into the fourth. Houston would pull away in the final frame with two touchdowns while South Florida had two fourth quarter turnovers as the Cougars escaped with the cover in a game with 1,149 total yards.
Penn State (-5) 30, Iowa 24: The line on this game was near -6 most of the week but hit -6? and -5? at times before landing at -5. The underdog was promising as Iowa took a 12-0 early lead but Penn State battled back to reach a 17-17 tie by halftime. Penn State took over in the third quarter with a 51-yard run from Trace McSorley and a long field goal for a 10-point advantage.

Iowa reached the Penn State 3-yard-line on its next possession but Nate Stanley was intercepted on 1st-and-goal. The Hawkeyes got a final opportunity and went 48 yards in the final minute but stalled just across midfield and ran out of time.
Iowa State (-6) 40, Texas Tech 31: The spread on the Cyclones climbed from -3? to -6 and it looked like it might matter as a Texas Tech tied the game in the fourth quarter with a fumble recovery touchdown. The Cyclones got an interception later in the fourth quarter to keep the game tied and then after pinning Texas Tech deep, Iowa State took the lead with a safety. The 33-31 edge wasn?t enough to cover but Iowa State hit a 48-yard touchdown pass with just over two minutes to go to lead by nine and then intercepted Alan Bowman again in Iowa State territory to hang on to the win and cover in a key Big XII game.
UAB (-15?) 19, UTEP 0: The winless Miners attracted some attention as this spread fell from opening at -17?.

UTEP missed a field goal in late in the third but wasn?t a significant scoring threat and with four minutes remaining UAB snuck past the spread with a late touchdown.

Cajuns were unable to get its own conversion attempt on the previous score.

LSU's odds improve slightly for college football clash vs. big fave Alabama
Patrick Everson
Tua Tagovailoa's unbeaten and top-ranked Alabama squad opened as a hefty 15-point road favorite at No. 4 LSU. However, a little early action on the Tigers tightened that number a tick to 14
The highly anticipated, hotly debated College Football Playoff rankings debut on Tuesday night, followed at the end of the week by some matchups that will be key to future CFP releases. We check in on the opening lines and early action on four Week 10 tilts, with insights from Cameron Coombs, supervisor at The SuperBook at Westgate.
No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide at No. 4 Louisiana State Tigers (+15)
Despite playing on the road against a top-five outfit, Alabama is a huge favorite for this Saturday night SEC showdown. The Crimson Tide (8-0 SU, 5-3 ATS) have beaten all their foes by at least 22 points, including a 58-21 shellacking of Tennessee as 29.5-point road favorites in Week 8. Alabama had a bye in Week 9.
Louisiana State stumbled in Week 6 at Florida, but rebounded on its home field by upsetting Georgia in Week 7. In Week 8, the Tigers (7-1 SU, 5-3 ATS) posted a 19-3 victory over Mississippi State as 5-point home faves. Like Alabama, LSU had a bye in Week 9.
?We have not received much action on this so far. The line has steamed down a little bit,? Coombs said. ?I think it?s due to the big matchup. As the week goes on, I assume we will see a lot of Alabama money, as we do every week. Who knows, maybe the Alabama quarterback (Tua Tagovailoa) will play past the first half.?
No. 5 Georgia Bulldogs at No. 12 Kentucky Wildcats (+9.5)
Georgia had a bye in Week 8 to regroup after its upset loss at LSU, then got a key neutral-site win in Week 9. The Bulldogs (7-1 SU, 4-4 ATS) went to Jacksonville as 7-point favorites against Florida and left with a 36-17 victory.
Kentucky is certainly one of the surprise teams of the season and still controls its own destiny in the SEC East. The Wildcats? only loss was at Texas A&M in overtime in Week 6. In Week 9, Kentucky (7-1 SU, 4-4 ATS) got a TD on the final play of the game for a 15-14 victory at Missouri catching 7.5 points.
?This line hasn?t moved at all, and we have seen any significant wagers on it,? Coombs said. ?I want to see how Georgia comes out and plays. The Bulldogs? game against Florida was much closer than what the scoreboard said.?
No. 13 Penn State Nittany Lions at No. 5 Michigan Wolverines (-10)
Michigan is running perfect since its Week 1 loss at Notre Dame. The Wolverines (7-1 SU, 5-3 ATS) enter this Big 10 showdown off a bye week, after dumping Michigan State 21-7 giving 7.5 points on the road in Week 8.
Penn State soiled its season with back-to-back home losses, blowing a big fourth-quarter lead against Ohio State and giving up a last-minute TD against Michigan State. The Nittany Lions (6-2 SU, 5-3 ATS) followed with a pair of close wins, edging Iowa 30-24 as 5.5-point home favorites in Week 9.
?Both of Penn State?s losses have been close games, and with Michigan?s defense, I think this will be a close game,? Coombs said. ?Throughout the week, I could see the spread dropping.?
No. 3 Notre Dame Fighting Irish at Northwestern Wildcats (+8)
Notre Dame is right in the thick of the four-team CFP chase, riding a perfect record into Week 10. The Fighting Irish (8-0 SU, 5-3 ATS) rumbled over Navy 44-22 in Week 9, narrowly cashing as 21.5-point faves in a neutral-site game in San Diego.
Northwestern followed a three-game losing streak by winning four in a row. In Week 9, the Wildcats (5-3 SU, 4-3-1 ATS) built a 31-10 lead against visiting Wisconsin and coasted to a 31-17 victory catching 3.5 points at home.
?This is a game we have received some money on. We took a sharp bet at -8, and the line has steamed up since,? Coombs said of action that took the Fighting Irish from -8 to -9.5. ?I think the line will continue to go up. Notre Dame is a powerhouse this year, and I?m not sure Northwestern will be able to keep up with the Irish.?

Early Line Moves - Week 10
October 30, 2018

College Football Week 10 Opening Line Report
Where has the early money gone in college football for Week 10? Bettors are being somewhat cautious early this week, as there are not as many big line moves as normal. Bettors did really well this past week in the NFL and didn?t have as much success in college, so perhaps that is why there has not been as much early live movement for Week 10. Let?s look at some of the big live moves for Week 10 and a couple of moves on marquee games.
Odds per BetDSI
Week 10 Early Line Moves
Western Michigan pick to -2 vs. Ohio
Bettors are backing Western Michigan in this contest against Ohio. The Broncos are 6-3 overall and 4-1 in the MAC, while Ohio is 5-3 overall and 3-1 in the conference. This game looks even, but Western Michigan is at home and bettors like the Broncos, as the line has moved from a pick to -2.
South Carolina +1 to -1 at Mississippi
This game is similar in some respects to the previous game, as both teams look even. The Gamecocks are 4-3 overall, while the Rebels are 5-3. The difference in this situation is that bettors are backing the road team. South Carolina has played better in the SEC than has Ole Miss, but both teams are very much in bowl contention. Bettors like South Carolina in this contest.
UAB -19.5 to -21.5 vs. UTSA
Bettors like UAB at home this week as they take on UTSA. The Blazers have been one of the best teams to bet in college football this season. They are 7-1 SU and they are 7-1 ATS. Texas San Antonio is 3-5 this season. You may not even be aware just how good UAB has been defensively this season. They are 3rd in the country in fewest points allowed at just 13.2 points per game. It is also worth noting that UAB has been an excellent team to bet under the total, with seven of their eight games going under. Bettors are laying the points with UAB in this game.
Marquee Game Line Moves
There is no question that the biggest game so far this season is Alabama at LSU, but that line has not moved off the opening number of Alabama laying -14. There was a bit of action toward LSU, as the number went to 13.5, but it went right back to 14. Let?s look at a couple other big games for this week.
Kentucky +10 to +9.5 vs. Georgia
This is a bit of a strange line move. The Wildcats were fortunate last week to get past Missouri and they were getting a touchdown in that game. They are at home this week, but they are playing a superior Georgia team. Bettors like Kentucky in this game, but it seems strange. Both Kentucky and Georgia come into this game at 7-1, but Georgia is considered a team that can challenge Alabama, while Kentucky is considered an outsider. It should be noted that Kentucky?s only loss this season came to Texas A&M, while Georgia?s only defeat came to LSU.
Notre Dame -7 to -8 at Northwestern
This is an intriguing game, as the Fighting Irish face a tough road test at Northwestern. Notre Dame is in position to make the College Football Playoff, but only if they run the table. Most people believe just one loss will end Notre Dame?s chances. The Fighting Irish rolled over Navy last week, while Northwestern looked really good in a win over Wisconsin. The Wildcats started very poorly this season, as they went 1-3, but Northwestern has won their last four games to get to 5-3. The Wildcats are leading the Big Ten West with a conference mark of 5-1 and they are in a great position to play in the Big Ten title game against Michigan or Ohio State. The Wildcats will be playing this game at home, but bettors are backing Notre Dame early in the week. This line move seems a bit strange, as Northwestern is rolling right now.

This game is similar in some respects to the previous game, as both teams look even. The Gamecocks are 4-3 overall, while the Rebels are 5-3. The difference in this situation is that bettors are backing the road team. South Carolina has played better in the SEC than has Ole Miss, but both teams are very much in bowl contention. Bettors like South Carolina in this contest.
UAB -19.5 to -21.5 vs. UTSA
Bettors like UAB at home this week as they take on UTSA. The Blazers have been one of the best teams to bet in college football this season. They are 7-1 SU and they are 7-1 ATS. Texas San Antonio is 3-5 this season. You may not even be aware just how good UAB has been defensively this season. They are 3rd in the country in fewest points allowed at just 13.2 points per game. It is also worth noting that UAB has been an excellent team to bet under the total, with seven of their eight games going under. Bettors are laying the points with UAB in this game.
Marquee Game Line Moves
There is no question that the biggest game so far this season is Alabama at LSU, but that line has not moved off the opening number of Alabama laying -14. There was a bit of action toward LSU, as the number went to 13.5, but it went right back to 14. Let?s look at a couple other big games for this week.
Kentucky +10 to +9.5 vs. Georgia
This is a bit of a strange line move. The Wildcats were fortunate last week to get past Missouri and they were getting a touchdown in that game. They are at home this week, but they are playing a superior Georgia team. Bettors like Kentucky in this game, but it seems strange. Both Kentucky and Georgia come into this game at 7-1, but Georgia is considered a team that can challenge Alabama, while Kentucky is considered an outsider. It should be noted that Kentucky?s only loss this season came to Texas A&M, while Georgia?s only defeat came to LSU.
Notre Dame -7 to -8 at Northwestern
This is an intriguing game, as the Fighting Irish face a tough road test at Northwestern. Notre Dame is in position to make the College Football Playoff, but only if they run the table. Most people believe just one loss will end Notre Dame?s chances. The Fighting Irish rolled over Navy last week, while Northwestern looked really good in a win over Wisconsin. The Wildcats started very poorly this season, as they went 1-3, but Northwestern has won their last four games to get to 5-3. The Wildcats are leading the Big Ten West with a conference mark of 5-1 and they are in a great position to play in the Big Ten title game against Michigan or Ohio State. The Wildcats will be playing this game at home, but bettors are backing Notre Dame early in the week. This line move seems a bit strange, as Northwestern is rolling right now.

NCAA Football - Week 10 Power 5 Best Bets
As the regular season hits its stretch run, these games mean a ton to the teams in contention for their conference crowns and the College Football Playoff. The motivation will be high but only one team can emerge victorious in each matchup.
Here is a look at some of the best bets among the Week 10 Power 5 matchups in NCAA football wagering:
Odds Analysis - per BookMaker.eu
The University of Arizona pulled off an unlikely upset last time out by throttling Oregon. Running back J.J. Taylor was dominant, carrying the ball 30 times for 212 yards and a pair of touchdowns. Arizona hosts Colorado this week and has clearly found something. The Wildcats are 3.5-point favorites and the choice to cover against a Buffaloes team that is solid but not dominant.
The Purdue Boilermakers have been up and down the past few weeks. They picked up a huge home win over Ohio State but then lost last time out on the road to Michigan State. Purdue is back home against the Iowa Hawkeyes this week. The Boilermakers are the choice to cover as 3-point favorites.
The Kentucky Wildcats have put together a great season, as they won a squeaker last time out to improve to 6-1. They get to host the Georgia Bulldogs in a critical SEC clash on Saturday, but the oddsmakers aren?t giving Kentucky a lot of love. Georgia is the 9-point road favorite, and even at that spread is the right pick. The Bulldogs are going to prove Kentucky is not in their league.
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish is a double-digit road favorite against the Northwestern Wildcats. Notre Dame is ranked No. 3 nationally and knows it has a great chance to compete in the College Football Playoff by running the table the rest of the way. Notre Dame should win this game but a 10-point spread on the road is too high. Northwestern is the pick to cover.
The Washington Huskies hoped to be a national title contender but have fallen off lately. They lost last time out to California by an ugly score of 12-10 and return home looking for answers. Quarterback Jake Browning was benched against Cal but will return to his starting role against the Stanford Cardinal. Stanford has been struggling too this season. The Huskies are the 9.5-point favorites and are the pick to get back to the right formula with a blowout win. Take Washington to cover in this one.
One of the largest spreads you will see in a Power 5 matchup features the Clemson Tigers as the 38.5-point favorite against the Louisville Cardinals. Clemson is going to dominate this game but it?s so hard to choose a team that is this big of a favorite against a large-conference foe. The Cardinals are the pick to cover as the second half will be unpredictable once Clemson takes out its starters.
Free NCAA Football ATS Picks
The most anticipated game of Week 10 will be the heavyweight showdown between the Alabama Crimson Tide and the LSU Tigers. Alabama is on the road in this one but is still listed as the heavy 13.5-point favorite.
It?s surprising spread as LSU is ranked No. 4 in the country and has only one loss all season. Despite that, Alabama is the clear best team in the country and the oddsmakers have continued to respect them even against solid foes. While the Crimson Tide is the better team and should pull out this win, the spread is too high.
LSU is the best pick of the week to cover as the Tigers are at home and have a talented defense in NCAA football gambling.
