Just a week ago, UMass was down 20-13 and facing a second-and-16 at its own 3-yard line. The Minutemen drove 97 yards with a third-string quarterback in the final minutes and threw a touchdown pass with one second on the clock. Then, they went for two, failed, and the game ended 20-19. We had Miami Ohio -3.5 \u2014 a side that closed -6.5. Them\u2019s the breaks sometimes.

(2026 Record: 14-14-2, -1.4 units) Who\u2019s ready for some Friday night fun in New Orleans? Memphis has one of the most explosive offenses in the country, led by quarterback Marcus Stokes. The junior from St. Augustine, Fla., is completing 70% of his passes with 16 touchdowns and only three interceptions. The Tigers are scoring 37 points per game and I don\u2019t see Tulane keeping up. Barring a bunch of turnovers, the Memphis offense should be too much. This is a rat line if I\u2019ve ever seen one. UCLA is 5-0 straight up (SU) and against the spread (ATS) but it\u2019ll be without starting quarterback Nico Iamaleava, who\u2019s out for the year with a knee injury. Wisconsin has the better signal caller in Colton Joseph and the Badgers\u2019 bruising defense should give the Bruins\u2019 offense fits. The whole world likes UCLA after last weekend\u2019s upset of Oregon, but we\u2019re going the other way with Luke Fickell\u2019s sneaky good squad. Former Las Vegas bookmaker Ed Salmons is hot on this one. He\u2019s all over Under 47 between the Fighting Irish and Cougars. Salmons usually likes low-scoring affairs when two top-10 teams get together, but BYU\u2019s style is also important here. The Cougars are one of the slowest teams in the nation when it comes to milking the clock between snaps. They know they can\u2019t go score for score with Notre Dame, and they\u2019ll try and make it ugly. After upsetting Buffalo and pounding Las Vegas in back-to-back weeks, New England is now one of the trendiest teams in the NFL. It\u2019s funny how that works because nobody wanted to bet the Patriots earlier this season, and now they\u2019re a money magnet. This year\u2019s Jets squad is feisty, and they\u2019re 3-1-1 against the spread. If Garrett Wilson can do his thing against a banged-up Pats secondary, New York can easily hang inside the number.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
