College Football Cheat Sheet

Wisconsin Badgers vs. Nebraska Cornhuskers

1. Will Pauling Over 44.5 Receiving Yards (-117) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds

The Wisconsin Badgers receiver has hit over this line in six of his last 10 games, despite missing in the last two matchups. The Badgers took on the Iowa Hawkeyes and Oregon Ducks in their previous two games, and failed to score more than 13 points in either one against those staunch defenses. Pauling should get more opportunity against Nebraska, and our AI projects him at 49.8 yards receiving this week.

2. Dante Dowdell Over 44.5 Rushing Yards (-124) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds

The Nebraska Cornhuskers running back has flown over this number in eight of 10 games this year, even despite losing their last four games. Dowdell has been consistent during Dylan Raiola's struggles and the overall offensive inefficiency. Our AI projection places Dowdell at 60 rushing yards against the Badgers on Saturday to stay hot on this trend.

3. Jahmal Banks Over 29.5 Receiving Yards (-141) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds

We've got a Nebraska receiver in the mix to round out this group, with our oddschecker+ Trends tool targeting Jahmal Banks to go over his receiving yards in this Big Ten battle. He's hit over 30 yards in seven of 10 games this year, including six of the last seven. We are projecting 45.6 yards, well over the listed total against this Badgers defense.

Texas A&M Aggies vs. Auburn Tigers

1. Payton Thorne Over 199.5 Passing Yards (-130) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds

The Auburn Tigers have a great defense, but are likely to be trailing in this one against a well-rounded Texas A&M Aggies squad on Saturday night. That's where Payton Thorne stacks up the stats, as he tries to get the Tigers back into the game by airing it out down the stretch. Our AI projection has Thorne at 226 yards passing, with the fourth quarter putting him over the top against the Aggies. He's gone over this number in five of the last seven games, and has seen the most success at home, hitting this in 83% of opportunities at Jordan Hare this year.

2. Jarquez Hunter Over 9.5 Yards Longest Reception Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds

Who will Thorne be throwing it to under the lights? We're going to look to Jarquez Hunter in this spot out of the backfield. Texas A&M has one of the best pass rushes in the country, led by superstar and future top NFL pick Nic Scourton. Thorne will have to get the ball out quick, and the dump off to Jarquez Hunter will be available often. Our Trends tool is loving Hunter to get a 10+ yard reception, something he's done in five of his last six games.

USC Trojans vs. UCLA Bruins

1. Woody Marks Over 89.5 Rushing Yards (-110) Click here to see which sportsbook has the best odds

Crosstown rivals will battle on Saturday night when USC and UCLA meet for the 92nd time in the fight for Victory Bell. Woody Marks will be taking part in this game for the first time after transferring from Mississippi State. He has been on a tear for the Trojans, going over this rushing line in five of his last six games and hitting at 70% on the season. Our AI projection has him at over 101 yards today, continuing to hit this number on the ground.
