New Mexico StateDamante 15/26, 146 yds, 1 TD, 1 INT; Jones 20 car, 155 yds, 1 TD
New Mexico State laid 1.5 at home and won by 21, and the box backs every point of it. Western Kentucky's quarterback got sacked six times and the offense went 7 of 18 on third down. James Jones ran for 155 on 20 carries and the Aggies just leaned on it all night.

North Texas won 45-44 in overtime as a 3-point favorite, so if you laid the number you lost by one point after the Mean Green outgained Tulsa 559 to 352. Tulsa tied it with 31 seconds left, then went for two in overtime and didn't get it. Three North Texas turnovers kept a blowout from ever happening. Over bettors cashed by 32.5 before the extra period was even over.

Virginia TechGrunkemeyer 30/41, 434 yds, 3 TD, 2 INT; Brown 7 rec, 147 yds, 1 TD
Virginia Tech threw for 434 yards, won yards per play 6.8 to 4.8 and lost, because it gave the ball away four times. Ethan Grunkemeyer threw two picks and the Hokies coughed up two more, and Pitt turned that into enough to win 35-33 as a 1.5-point dog. Pitt is 5-0 and I'm not sure anyone knows how good it actually is.

Liberty led 30-0 early in the fourth before Delaware scored twice in garbage time, and the Flames still covered the 7 by 9. Kam Davis ran for 147 and two scores. Delaware went 2 of 13 on third down and turned it over twice, which is about all you need to know.

We had Northwestern +3 and it was over by halftime, 24-7. The Wildcats ran for 7.8 yards a carry, Caleb Komolafe went for 188 and Joseph Himon II scored twice. Penn State managed 2.6 a carry and Rocco Becht threw two interceptions. Northwestern is now 4-0 ATS and 4-0 to the over.

Georgia won by 24 and still came up a point and a half short of 25.5. Vanderbilt scored with 31 seconds left in the half to make it 21-14, and the Dawgs never got far enough away after that. Gunner Stockton went 25 of 32 for 295 and three scores. The total went over again, 49.5 with a 52 final, and Georgia is now 5-0 to the over this year.

North CarolinaEdwards Jr. 17/28, 208 yds, 3 TD, 2 INT; Shipp 7 rec, 109 yds
Notre Dame won by 11 laying 21, and North Carolina's touchdown with 2:36 left turned a non-cover into a comfortable one. CJ Carr threw four touchdowns. Carolina's Jaden Jefferson took the second-half kickoff back 98 yards to make it 21-20, and then the Irish pulled away. Notre Dame outgained Carolina 475 to 285. The scoreboard undersells how one-sided it was.

Miami went into Clemson as a 14-point favorite and won by 28. Clemson's quarterback got sacked six times, and Miami tacked on a 39-yard pick six at the end for good measure. Miami is 5-0 and has allowed 9.8 points a game.

Jeremiah Smith caught 11 balls for 206 yards and two touchdowns at Kinnick, which is a sentence I figured I'd write eventually. Ohio State led 31-6 and Iowa's late touchdown plus the two got them within 17, so the Buckeyes covered 14.5 by 2.5. Iowa finished with 238 total yards.

Indiana put up 593 yards at 8.7 a play and led 37-0 in the third quarter. The Hoosiers are 5-0 and this was their first cover of the season. They're 1-4 against the spread. The market has priced them high all year and they finally cleared it.

BYU threw for 62 yards and won. Bear Bachmeier ran in both touchdowns and the Cougars covered 5.5 by 1.5. TCU was the better team per play, 4.7 to 3.5, but got sacked four times and never punched it in again after halftime. The under won by 21.5. BYU is 4-0 ATS and has no business being 4-0 ATS.

LSU gained 731 yards and won by 49, which was 4.5 short of the 53.5 spread. Yes, a 53.5. McNeese scored twice in the third quarter on plays of 43 and 64 yards by Jamaal Levi, and that's your cover. If you laid it, I'm sorry.

Washington led 21-10 in the third quarter, then USC's Jahkeem Stewart returned a fumble 48 yards and the whole game flipped. USC won 25-21 and didn't cover the 7.5. The Trojans are 5-1 and 1-5 ATS, which might be the most USC stat ever written.
