It's not just that the demise of the Melbourne Rebels has boosted depth in other squads. It might be the do with it being a Lions Tour year, and the extra jeopardy that brings.

No. 4 Miami Hurricanes (-10.5) at Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, Noon ET, ESPN Miami often starts slow, then flips a switch to dominate. Georgia Tech, coming off a bye, hopes to be the team to finally take down Miami. They bring physicality and home-field advantage, but Miami's offensive firepower is hard to overlook. Pick: Miami -10.5 Florida Gators (+21.5) at No. 5 Texas Longhorns, Noon ET, ABC The Gators surprised against Georgia, even after losing freshman QB DJ Lagway. With Texas on the rise, it's hard to see Florida staying within three scores. Pick: Texas -21.5 Purdue Boilermakers (+38.5) at No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes, Noon ET, FOX The Spoilermakers get another shot against a top team. They're struggling, but Ohio State hasn't looked like a definitive No. 2. I'll take Purdue to keep it within 35. Pick: Purdue +38.5 No. 3 Georgia Bulldogs (-2.5) at No. 16 Ole Miss Rebels, 3:30 p.m. ET, ABC Georgia still wins big but not as dominantly as in past seasons. Ole Miss could upset, but history favors Georgia in big games. Pick: Georgia -2.5 Michigan Wolverines (+14.5) at No. 8 Indiana Hoosiers, 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS Michigan's defense holds opponents to the mid-20s, but this high-powered Indiana offense will be a challenge. I'll take Michigan to cover the 14.5. Pick: Michigan +14.5 No. 23 Clemson Tigers (-6.5) at Virginia Tech Hokies, 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPN Clemson's bubble burst recently, and with uncertainties about VT's key players, this one depends on health. Pick: Virginia Tech +6.5 No. 20 Colorado Buffaloes (-3.5) at Texas Tech Red Raiders, 4:00 p.m. ET, FOX Texas Tech delivered last week, and I'll stick with them in what promises to be a high-scoring “Fantasy Carnival.” Pick: Texas Tech +3.5 Florida State Seminoles (+26.5) at No. 10 Notre Dame Fighting Irish, 7:30 p.m. ET, NBC No need to overthink this one. Pick: Notre Dame +26.5 No. 11 Alabama Crimson Tide (-2.5) at No. 15 LSU Tigers, 7:30 p.m. ET, ABC As an LSU grad, I've been torn. Jalen Milroe's playmaking favors Alabama, but LSU's night home-field magic pulls me the other way. I'll hedge emotionally. Pick: LSU +2.5 No. 9 BYU Cougars (-4.5) at Utah Utes, 10:15 p.m. ET, ESPN Utah's season hasn't gone well, but this rivalry game in Salt Lake City gives them the edge. Pick: Utah +4.5 DK Saturday Main Slate DFS Picks Record Year to Date: 19 Wins 22 Ties 18 Losses Quarterback Shedeur Sanders, Colorado ($8,900) – Texas Tech's porous pass defense (280+ yards allowed per game) offers a great setup for Sanders, who should easily hit 300 yards and 3 TDs. Stack him with his pass catchers for high upside. Thomas Castellanos, Boston College ($6,600) – With his rushing attempts increasing, Castellanos brings upside. Syracuse's defense struggles, making Castellanos a solid dual-threat pick. Running Back Quintrevion Wisner, Texas ($5,000) – Wisner's workload in Texas's high-scoring offense is undervalued. Florida's banged-up defense should give him opportunities to score. Kanye Udoh, Army ($5,900) – Udoh's performance hinges on QB Daily's status. If Daily sits, Udoh becomes a must-play against North Texas's weak run defense. Wide Receiver LaJohntay Wester, Colorado ($5,200) – Wester is consistently undervalued and has a strong role in Colorado's offense. His red-zone presence makes him a high-floor play. Tony Johnson, Cincinnati ($3,600) – Johnson's recent performances make him a value option against a pass-funnel West Virginia defense, with consistent targets from Sorsby. 4o Learn more about your ad choices.
