    CFB | California 32 @ Washington 59 | 09/24 | 2:30 AM UTC

    Washington -20.5 -110

    WIN

    ANALYSIS: You can't spell Washington without Wagon, and this Huskies team is a wagon. The Pac-12 has a lot of good teams, but there's a clear divide between the ones at the top and at the bottom, and that divide will make itself evident when Cal cannot cover these Huskies receivers.

    CFB | USC 42 @ Arizona St. 28 | 09/24 | 2:30 AM UTC

    USC -34.5 -110

    LOSS

    ANALYSIS: Have you seen the Arizona State depth chart? One of us can probably get a spot on it with all the injuries this team has suffered. USC has blown out everybody it's faced so far this season, and Saturday night won't be any different. Trojans may have the number covered by halftime.

    CFB | NC State 24 @ Virginia 21 | 09/22 | 11:30 PM UTC

    NC State -9.5 -110

    LOSS

    ANALYSIS: The Virginia defense is a mess, particularly at the back end. On offense the Cavaliers can't stop turning the ball over. I've been disappointed a bit by what I've seen from the Wolfpack this season, but this is a spot they should cruise.

    CFB | Ohio State 17 @ Notre Dame 14 | 09/23 | 11:30 PM UTC

    OVER 55.5 -110

    LOSS

    ANALYSIS: Last year's meeting was a boring defensive struggle. This year should look a lot different. Ohio State has explosive playmakers on the perimeter, while Notre Dame has a QB capable of throwing the football this season. Both defenses are off to great starts, but neither has been tested the way they'll be tested this week.

    CFB | New Mexico 34 @ UMass 31 | 09/23 | 7:30 PM UTC

    New Mexico +3.5 -110

    WIN

    ANALYSIS: UMass looked good offensively before QB Taisun Phommachanh got hurt and has looked impotent since. I don't think New Mexico is anything special, but it's hard to trust this UMass team as a favorite against anybody right now.
