We’re hoping for another epic Week 8, and nothing makes this better than taking a few underdogs to pull off some upsets. Let’s take a look at my college football predictions for the top underdog moneyline bets.
This week, we’re leaning on the SEC and Big 12 for my picks. I know fall is here, which means those invitations for things like pumpkin patches and kids’ birthday parties are coming in hot. Try to hit those invites with an Ashton Jeanty stiff arm for another week because we have some great college football games to watch.
Here’s a look at my best college football betting picks for Week 8 upsets.
Bet These 4 College Football Underdogs on Saturday
1. Tennessee (+3) Upsets Bama
Both of these teams have flaws, but this Alabama team looks vulnerable. Tennessee has one of the best home-field advantages in college football.
Much to the dismay of Smokey, the Vols are a home dog with the Crimson Tide as a 3-point favorite. The question we’re all asking Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel is, can we open up the offense and throw the ball?
Heupel may respond by explaining that Nico Iamaleava has not exactly been stellar. That said, Bama is still going to have to overcome Tennessee’s defense.
For some reason, I can’t get this video of Morgan Wallen hanging out with Peyton Manning at Neyland Stadium. ICYMI, here’s a look at the viral video.

Maybe it’s a sign. Take the Vols to pull off the upset at BetUS Sportsbook.

2. Florida (+1) Begins DJ Lagway Era With an Upset Over Kentucky
This feels a bit like cheating, but Florida is technically a one-point underdog. Who doesn’t love taking a home dog?
We’re keeping the trend going by staying in the SEC where I’m told it just means more. Propaganda aside, this officially begins the DJ Lagway era with Graham Mertz sidelined for the season.

The freshman quarterback may be the only thing left to save Billy Napier’s job. Don’t change that LinkedIn profile just yet, Billy. I like the Gators to not only cover our NCAAF odds, but Florida to win outright.

3. Coach Prime’s Colorado (+138) Snags Win Over Arizona
Colorado lost a heartbreaker against Kansas State, but I like Coach Prime’s squad in this bounce-back spot. The Buffs received good news as all-everything star Travis Hunter is expected to play against Arizona.

Colorado is a 3-point underdog versus Arizona, but I have serious doubts about the Wildcats offense. Arizona is starting to look like a one-trick pony with star receiver Tetairoa McMillan. Include Colorado’s moneyline in your college football picks and parlays this week.

4. Arizona State (+5½) Keeps Hot Streak Going Versus Cincinnati
Arizona State got the epic Week 7 party started off right with a massive upset versus Utah. When he isn’t going viral after wins, Kenny Dillingham is turning around the Arizona State program.

The Sun Devils are leaning on star running back Cam Skattebo. This feels like a wrong-team-favored situation versus Cincinnati as Arizona State is a 5½-point underdog. Look for Arizona State to both cover ATS in our college football betting lines and win outright versus Cincy.
Bet on Arizona State +5.5 vs Cincinnati
