Penn State UNDER 27.5 points (+115)

The winless Penn State Nittany Lions (0-5) visit the Michigan Wolverines for a noon ET start. If there is one team you shouldn’t trust on offense this year, it’s Penn State. The Nittany Lions have struggled to move the ball and are now without their best player in TE Pat Freiermuth due to an injury. It’s going to be a real struggle for the Nittany Lions on Saturday, and expect them to be held under 28 points vs. the Wolverines.

UNDER 13 first-quarter points in PSU/Michigan (-115)

College Football Betting Picks Week 8

Speaking of Penn State and Michigan, look for this to be a fairly low-scoring game as both teams try to use the run to control the clock. Both offenses are really struggling and it’s hard to envision multiple touchdowns being scored early in this one. Take the UNDER on first-quarter points here as both offenses want to play a ball-control style of offense.

Maryland OVER 23.5 points (-154)

In another Big Ten noon ET kickoff, the Maryland Terrapins visit the Indiana Hoosiers. The Terrapins are averaging 27.7 PPG, and they are coming off a game in which they scored 35 points at Penn State. They will face an Indiana defense that is far better than anything they’ve faced this season, but they should be able to find a way to get OVER 24 points in this game. Don’t be surprised if Maryland makes this a very competitive game, too, after recent back-to-back wins against Penn State and Minnesota.

Louisville OVER 27.5 points (-106)

This Week's Pro Free Football College Picks

The Louisville Cardinals face the Boston College Eagles for a 4 p.m. ET kickoff in Chestnut Hill, Mass. Excluding a 12-7 loss to Notre Dame earlier this season, the Louisville offense has been really good in 2020. It has a ton of speed at receiver and it averaging nearly 194.1 rushing yards per game. The Cardinals, who are averaging 28.1 points per game, should have no problem getting to 28 points in this game as the Eagles have allowed 26.7 PPG.

East Carolina +180 to win first quarter vs. SMU

A fun prop bet in Week 13 is for the East Carolina Panthers to win the first quarter against the visiting SMU Mustangs in an AAC game that starts at noon ET. East Carolina, which is coming off an impressive 28-3 win at Temple, often gets off to a fast start. Look for the Pirates to use their rushing attack to slow down this game and potentially win the first quarter.
