Michigan State at Northwestern
Northwestern is favored by 3 in this one and they have settled with Clemson transfer Hunter Johnson at quarterback. You have to assume that if he was at Clemson, he has some talent. The Wildcats lost a lot of good players from 2020 but their program is solid and Coach Pat Fitzgerald is vastly underrated. Michigan State is still in rebuild mode and have some issues on offense.
Our Pick: Northwestern -3 Definitely gets a green card for go *DUDES WHO BET SPORTS BEST BET*
Texas Tech at Houston
The Red Raiders are favored by 1.5 points and I like Houston to beat them straight up. The Cougars suffered through a bunch of junk related to COVID in 2020 and were in chaos most of the season. They have their quarterback returning along with several transfers and Dana Holgorsen is a good coach. Tech has Oregon transfer, Tyler Shough at quarterback and that might be an upgrade. But I am wondering why he would transfer from Oregon to Texas Tech. Isn’t Oregon a better place than Lubbock? I’m just not sold on Tech.
Our Pick: Houston +1.5 This gets a green card for go. *DUDES WHO BET SPORTS BEST BET*
