Bet These 4 College Football Upsets in Week 10
1. Vanderbilt (+200) a Threat vs Auburn
Everyone is ready to jump off the Vandy bandwagon, but I’m thinking you should stay another week. Auburn gets its first win in five games and now the team is nearly a touchdown favorite in the NCAAF lines versus Vanderbilt.
I am just not buying that Auburn has become an overnight force. What I do know is that Vanderbilt has been a consistent force over this same stretch. Vanderbil has wins over Alabama and Kentucky while losing by just three points versus Texas.
Bet this Pick: Vanderbilt + 200
Vandy quarterback Diego Pavia should have Auburn coach Hugh Freeze losing sleep.
No words.
Vanderbilt QB Diego Pavia is on the cusp of entering the Heisman Trophy race, turning a turnover into a TD with a beautiful effort.

2. Illinois (+129) the Bettor Side vs Minnesota
I’ve liked this Illinois squad this season. The Illini’s win over Kansas turns out to not be that impressive, but Illinois also has wins over Nebraska and Michigan.
Illinois proved in sizable losses versus Oregon and Penn State that this is not an elite squad. Spoiler alert: Neither is Minnesota. The Gophers are riding a three-game winning streak into this matchup with victories against Maryland, UCLA and USC.

3. Pitt (+240) Has SMU on Upset Alert
I’m not entirely sure why SMU is favored against Pitt, let alone by more than a touchdown. Both of these teams are dealing with injuries at quarterback.
Pitt has not revealed whether Eli Holstein will suit up against SMU. Keep an eye on college football news for updates on his status. The Ponies are proving their oil money was made for the NIL era. SMU was just a few decades too early, hence the death penalty.

SMU’s best win came against Louisville, but otherwise the victories are not extremely impressive. Pitt’s resume does not look like something you want to feature on LinkedIn, either. Wins against West Virginia and Cal looked better earlier in the season.
Here’s what I know, Holstein is absolutely dealing in the Pitt offense. Assuming Holstein plays, give me the Pitt moneyline in my NCAA football picks.
4. TCU (+134) the Pick in Big 12 Clash vs Baylor
Let’s keep this one short. Both of these teams are a bit like getting Smarties in your Halloween basket. Translation: Neither squad looks particularly good.
This feels like more of a coin flip, yet Baylor is favored by three points. Take the Hypnotoads to pull off the upset against Baylor in the NCAA football lines.
