College football picks and best bets for Week 3 midday games

3. College football best bets: Alabama (-14.5) vs. Florida

Yes, Florida is at home and the No. 11-ranked team in the country. But with Emory Jones still installed as the starter, this team doesn’t have a shot against Alabama. The Crimson Tide defense will feast on his inconsistency at quarterback while Bryce Young and the offensive line will keep a talented Gators defense from blowing anything up.

2. College football best bets: USC (-8.5) vs. Washington State

This could definitely come back to bite me but I’m buying in on the post-Clay Helton USC Trojans. Even if he was well-liked, the fact of the matter is he wasn’t a good in-game coach. Now against a Washington State team that, frankly, shouldn’t hold a candle to the Trojans, they right the ship under new leadership with a big win.

1. College football best bets: Tulsa vs. Ohio State (-24.5)

Speaking of motivation, few teams are going to be more motivated than Ohio State after their loss to Oregon, which is bad news for the Golden Hurricane. C.J. Stroud and the running back group are going to have their way with Tulsa and I expect this one to get ugly quickly and then stay that way.
