Welcome back to the last traditional college football week until late November. Next week, Conference USA will start playing Tuesday and Wednesday games for the rest of October and, of course, November brings in MACNation mid-week games. That means there will a college or pro game every day until Wednesday November 27th starting next Tuesday: a stretch of 42 amazing days! If you can, take advantage and watch some of these games: it is their chance to shine on national TV.
…..
But we have games this week and that’s what this post is supposed to be about. Games start Thursday, but the best pre-Saturday game this week is at 9:00 (all times Eastern) Friday night when Syracuse (3-1/51) heads to Vegas to play UNLV (4-0/19). When the Orange have the ball, their OER (offensive efficiency rating) is 137 (41st in the country) meaning they score 13.7 points for every 10.0 points their opponents normally allow. They will face a Rebel DER (defensive efficiency rating) of 156 (31st) meaning they allow 10.0 points for every 15.6 points their opponents normally score. When the home team is driving, an OER of 151 (19th) hits a Syracuse DER of 188 (88th). It’s not often a Core 4 team with a 3-1 record is the underdog to a Group of 5 team, but Vegas (could it be home-town bias? ha) has UNLV-6.5 and the GCR agrees 59% and the Rebels to cover.
…..
You may have noticed the GCR has added the team to cover to the predictions. Please remember that this blog is for entertainment only, and I don’t bet on teenagers. A general rule of thumb is each % to win by the GCR is equivalent to ~1 point.
…..
At noon Saturday, in the game of the week, Missouri (4-0/10) will invade Texas A&M (4-1/32). The Aggies are on top of the SEC all alone at the moment at 2-0 in the conference with wins over Florida (2-2/68) and Arkansas (3-2/60). When the Tigers are driving, a high-powered offense with an OER of 157 (11th) goes up against an elite DER of 171 (25th). When the Aggies control the ball, a more modest OER of 130 (59th) will try to take a top 10 DER of 234 (8th). Vanderbilt (2-2/89), who lost to Georgia St (2-2/119), took Mizzou to 2 overtimes before succumbing. Are these teams legit? We will find out. Vegas has A&M-2.5 (up from -1.0 earlier in the week). The GCR thinks it will be close – literally it is predicting Mizzou at 51% or MIZZ-1.0. This feels like another overtime situation or a field goal as time is running out toss up type game. Should be fun.
…..
At 4:00, West Virginia (2-2/76) who was a pre-season Big 12 contender travels to Oklahoma St (3-2/45). Both Cowboy losses came in conference games while WVU is 1-0. The Mountaineer OER is 131 (52nd) and will try to score on a Cowboy DER of 125 (77th). OKST, however, can score with an elite OER of 156 (13th) vs a DER of 115 (96th). Vegas likes Oklahoma St at home -3.0 and the GCR agrees 57% and to cover.
…..
At 7:30 in the co-game of the week, we have a rematch of last year’s championship game when Michigan (4-1/28) with only a loss at home to Texas (5-0/1) taking the long trip to Washington (3-2/44). You know the schedulers did this on purpose and I, for one, am glad they did. Face it, it’s college football so many faces have changed since January, but it’s still pretty fun. I don’t think it will be a 34-13 rout this time. When the Wolverines have the ball, an OER of 123 (73rd) will face a home team DER of 245 (7th). Points will be hard to come by for Michigan. When Washington is pushing, a less than mediocre OER of 119 (82nd) will face a fully mediocre DER of 148 (40th). Points will be hard to come by for Washington. Despite the fact that the Huskies are just 5 games from the score-happy Pac 12, this feels like a stereotypical Big Ten defensive game. Vegas has the over/under at just 41.0 to prove that point. They also have Washington to win at home -2.5, but the GCR has Michigan to win 51%.
…..
Without further ado, here are all the games this week, organized alphabetically by Core 4 conferences, Group of 5 conferences, and FCS. Hope your team does well, unless they are playing my team. Thank you, as always, for reading and sharing with others, G
