[00:00:00] Foreign.
[00:00:10] This is Sean the strategy steward in this episode of 586 Bread and Odds. I am going to go over six college football games for week one. Now before I begin, 586 Bread and Odds is being presented by playpick.com play pickoff.com is a season long sports gaming platform that designed for private groups and office pools. It serves as a modern alternate to traditional fantasy football and old school quote unquote share styles or bankroll building pools. So there is a college football contest in the description box. So all you have to do is sign
[email protected] and use lead code 586 CFB.
[00:00:50] That will be also in the description box for the over code. All right, now that we got out the way we are going to go with the first game.
[00:01:00] First game we're going to go over is Colorado at Georgia Tech. That is a Thursday night game. That is 8 o' clock Eastern Time on ESPN.
[00:01:10] Now Georgia Tech is favored by -6 and a half. The total is 50 and a half. So this is a rematch. Now last year Georgia Tech went into Boulder stadium as a 3 1/2 to 4 point favorite. Now the final score of that game was Georgia Tech 27 Colorado 20.
[00:01:28] Now Georgia Tech did cover that one. Now the underhit. Now last season Georgia Tech was 7 and 6 against the spread. Colorado was 5 and 7 against the spread.
[00:01:40] This is the only single digit Thursday night game. So if you're in the pool this is the very first game you want to fill out on play Pickoff. So I am going to take the Georgia Tech -6 and a half as they already beat this team on the road and now they're at home.
[00:01:58] And as for the total I'm going to go under 50 and a half.
[00:02:04] Next one we have for game two is a Saturday afternoon game that's 3:30 Eastern Standard Time on ABC. That is Baylor versus Auburn. That is the Athlet kickoff game. Now Auburn is favored by -7 and a half. The total is 58 and a half. This is Alec G's first game as Auburn's head coach. The quarterback for Auburn is Byron Brown. Now for Baylor quarterback is DJ Lacway who is who was the quarterback for Florida at the time.
[00:02:33] So these two open last season in Waco. Now Auburn won 38 to 24 last year Baylor was 2:10 against the spring spread. That is the worst cover mark in the Power 4. Now Auburn was 4 and 8 against the spread.
[00:02:50] Now I want to lean Auburn minus 7 and a half as they won this Matchup last September. Now Baylor could not cover last year. Now as for the total, I'm going to take the over 58 and a half. Now both of these offenses should have no problem scoring in The Dome.
[00:03:05] Game three Saturday night.
[00:03:08] That is Clemson at 11 rank LSU as LSU is favored by 10 and a half. The total is 50 and a half. Now the quarterback is Sam Levitt, the Arizona State transfer. And this is the return game. Now last year they did open in Clemson. LSU won 17 to 10. LSU was a road dog and covered the under hit. Now 27 total points.
[00:03:34] Last season LSU was 49 against the spread and 49 to the over. Now in other words the under hit most weeks. Clemson was five and eight against the spread and also an under team.
[00:03:47] A ten and a half point home number tells you what the market thinks of Clemson right now. So Eileen, LSU -10 and a half Sunday night. That is a 7:30 game. That is going to be a neutral stike at Nissan Stadium in Nashville. It is the Music City Kickoff. That is number 24 Louisville versus number 9 Ole Miss. Ole Miss is paired by a 7. Total is 15 and a half. This is the only ranked versus ranked versus ranked game of week one. Ole Miss is listed as a home team on a neutral field. Peter Golding, first full season as head coach. They played once before 221 in Atlanta. Ole Miss won 43 to 24 last year in Louisville was 48 against the spread. Ole Miss won 11 games in the regular season and covered most weeks than it did not.
[00:04:39] So lean Ole Miss -7, better roster, better spot. The total over 55 and a half. Once again it's a neutral site.
[00:04:47] Next we have is Toledo at Michigan State. Michigan State is favored by ten and a half. The total is 47 and a half. Now Toledo is seven and three against the spread in this last ten. So lean Toledo plus ten and a half. That is a lot of points for a week one home favorite. Saturday.
[00:05:07] Then you also got another game. This game is on Saturday night on NBC. That is Western Michigan at number 16, ranked Michigan, Michigan, minus 27 and a half. The total is 48 and a half. Now Western Michigan was 10 and three, three and one against the spread last year. 10 and four straight up. Michigan should have no problem winning the game and 27 is a very big number. I'm not going to take that. I would rather take the money line.
[00:05:34] All right, so there you have it. So those are my games that I am going to select in week one. And don't forget to follow the show on social media as well. You guys have a nice and wonderful week. Take care of Sam.
