UC @ OSU(-16)-UC had a big win over UCLA and comes to the shoe with a boulder on their shoulder. OSU was two very different teams last week but the defense may be elite again. Never blitzing and giving literal 8 yard cushions let FAU move the ball in the second half. UC is one of the better teams OSU will play this year despite being outside the power 5. If OSU's defense smothers an offense that struggled against UCLA this could get ugly. 

Texas A&M @ Clemson(-17.5)- Clemson being a bigger favorite over A&M than OSU is over UC tells you what vegas thinks about Clemson. Both teams are better than they were last year when they played in a nail biter. Both teams played terrible teams week 1 and not much can be taken away. The biggest question is Clemson's defense. How well they will be able to replace one of the best front 7s ever is a huge question mark. This game is in Clemson and Kellen Mond will need to come up big. If Clemson covers they are going to be tough to beat for anybody. 

LSU(-6.5) @ Texas- Who dares bet against Tom Herman as an underdog? Since he became an OC at Iowa State he is 21-2 as an underdog against the spread. LSU however looks elite. A new offense utilizing their athletes, a more than competent QB, and another great defense could push Bama in the SEC. Texas lost a lot from last year but showed they could stand up to Georgia. Ehlinger may be the better QB and will be playing in a crazy environment with the Herman underdog factor. This is a great game with a sharp line. 

Other games: Syracuse@Maryland has been bet from Cuse-3 to Maryland-2 in a game with sneaky ramifications. Nebraska(-3.5)@Colardo, plain and simple Nebraska could start to get ugly if they cant pull this one off. Stanford@USC(-1) is the weirdest line of the week, USC just lost their QB and looked bad in an 8 point win against a bad Fresno State team, 70% of the money is on Stanford.
