Wild Wagering Trends for College Football Week 10

Heading into Week 9, the Clemson Tigers were 0-7 against the spread, but the Tigers finally bucked that wild trend against the Florida State Seminoles, covering the 9.5-point spread.

The over was 5-0 in the Michigan Wolverine’s last five road games, and that trend continues to 6-0 after the 37-33 loss the Wolverines received from the Michigan State Spartans easily surpassed the total set a 50.5.

What trends should bettors look out for in Week 10?

College Football Betting Trends Week 10

• Pittsburgh is 5-0 against the spread in their last five games as a road favorite.
• Michigan State is 6-0-2 against the spread this season.
• Alabama is 11-2 against the spread in its last 13 home games.

Pittsburgh vs. Duke (+21) | Total: 64

Pittsburgh is 5-0 Against the Spread in Its Last Five Games as a Road Favorite

The Panthers have had little issue playing away from Heinz Field, especially when favored. Pitt has covered as road favorites against some very solid teams this season, including Tennessee (+3.5), Georgia Tech (+3) and Virginia Tech (+6.5).

Pittsburgh and quarterback Kenny Pickett will face their largest spread as road favorites all season at 21 points. Can they cover the lofty 21-spread on WynnBET? Pitt is averaging 43.9 points per game, fourth in College Football, so the offense will certainly put up the effort.

Michigan State vs. Purdue (+3) | Total: 53.5

Michigan State is 6-0-2 Against the Spread This Season

The Spartans continue to make money for all of the bettors that believe in them. 

Michigan State has yet to fail on covering a spread in the current campaign, pushing on a three-point spread in an overtime win over Nebraska and a 28-point spread against FCS Youngstown State.

The Spartans' surprisingly deadly offense will face a Purdue Boilermakers defense that has halted offenses all season. The under is 7-1 in Purdue’s eight games this season, which is a wild trend as well, but prime evidence of the efficacy of this Boilermakers defense. Kenneth Walker III will need to boost his resume to help Sparty cover the spread.

LSU vs. Alabama (-28.5) | Total: 65.5

Alabama is 11-2 Against the Spread in Its Last 13 Home Games

The Crimson Tide have failed to cover the spread at home just once this season, and guess which team it was? Give up?

It was the Mercer Bears of the FCS. Alabama failed to cover a 54-point spread in its 48-14 win.

Besides that hiccup, Nick Saban’s team continuously shows up at home, and will need to put on quite a display to cover their big spread against SEC rival LSU this week. This is the largest spread favoring Alabama at Bryant-Denny stadium in Tuscaloosa since the 45-point spread the Crimson Tide covered against Southern Mississippi on Sept. 25.
