UCF +115 vs. Oklahoma State [3:30 p.m. ET]
Oklahoma State continued its magical 🪄 run this season by upsetting Oklahoma in the final Bedlam before the Sooners head to the SEC. The game after Bedlam has been tricky recently for Oklahoma State, as it’s only won once the past six times in that spot. The Cowboys head to the Bounce House to face a UCF team that needs to win 2 of its final 3 games for bowl eligibility. UCF’s 4-5 record is a bit deceiving since four of those losses came without starting QB John Rhys Plumlee. Oklahoma State has allowed two Big 12 QBs to rush for more than 100 yards, and Plumlee’s legs are a major threat to that defense.
New Mexico State +165 at Western Kentucky [3:30 p.m. ET]
Jerry Kill has done a remarkable job with New Mexico State’s program. He has this team knocking on the C-USA title game door in just his second season. The Aggies have won and covered their last five C-USA contests, led by dual-threat QB Diego Pavia. Pavia has run for at least 60 yards in eight of his past nine games and he’s facing a WKU defense that has surrendered the sixth-most rushing yards in CFB. Even with Austin Reed back under center, Western Kentucky’s offense has gone from 6.7 yards per play last season (12th in CFB) to 5.8 this campaign (62nd) 😬.
