First look: Michigan at Michigan State odds and lines

Previewing the Michigan at Michigan State Week 9 matchup, with college football odds, trends and head-to-head records.

The No. 6 Michigan Wolverines (7-0, 4-0 Big Ten) and No. 7 Michigan State Spartans (7-0, 4-0) will lock horns in a rivalry battle Saturday in East Lansing. Kickoff in the top-10 tussle from Spartan Stadium is slated for noon ET. Below, we look at the Michigan vs. Michigan State odds and lines; check back for our college football picks and predictions.

Rankings courtesy of the AFCA Coaches Poll, powered by USA TODAY Sports.

Michigan drubbed Northwestern 33-7 Saturday. The Wolverines managed 30-plus points for a sixth time in seven games and 200 or more rushing yards (294) for a fifth time this fall. RB Blake Corum rushed for 119 yards in the victory and already has 729 yards on the season. UM’s 253.3 rushing yards per game rank fifth in FBS.

The Spartans defeated Indiana 20-15, despite compiling just 241 yards on offense. MSU struggled in taking 12 penalties for 134 yards in the contest. At 68.1 yards per game, Michigan State is the 17th-most penalized team in FBS. RB Kenneth Walker III is a legitimate candidate for “First Half Heisman”: the dynamic junior back needs just 3 yards to reach 1,000 rushing yards on the season, and he already has 10 total touchdowns.

First look: North Carolina at Notre Dame odds and lines

Previewing the North Carolina at Notre Dame Week 9 matchup, with college football odds, trends and head-to-head records.

The North Carolina Tar Heels (4-3) pay a visit to South Bend, Ind., to take on the No. 11 Notre Dame Fighting Irish (6-1) on Saturday night. The contest at Notre Dame Stadium is slated to kick off at 7:30 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the North Carolina vs. Notre Dame odds and lines; check back for our college football picks and predictions.

Rankings courtesy the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

North Carolina is playing in its first true road game since a season-opening 17-10 loss at Virginia Tech Sept. 3. The Tar Heels are just 4-7 on the road in Mack Brown’s tenure as head coach (2019-present). UNC is looking to avenge a 31-17 loss to Notre Dame last season. The Tar Heels led that game, 17-14, late in the first half, but they produced just 58 yards over six drives after halftime.

Notre Dame is coming off a 31-16 win over USC Saturday. The Irish led that game, 24-3, heading into the fourth quarter. They went a combined 9-for-13 in converting third-and fourth-down opportunities. That’s an area where UND has struggled for much of the season: the team’s 38.1% rate of converting third downs ranks 84th in the nation.

Florida State is coming off a 59-3 throttling of Massachusetts and has won three straight games after starting the season 0-4. FSU is a run-first group that has had trouble stopping the same.

Previewing the Colorado Buffaloes at Oregon Ducks Week 9 matchup, with college football odds, trends and head-to-head records.

The Colorado Buffaloes (2-5, 1-3 Pac-12) and Oregon Ducks (6-1, 3-1) meet for a Saturday afternoon game in Eugene, Ore. The Pac-12 crossover battle  at Autzen Stadium is slated to kick off at 3:30 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Colorado vs. Oregon odds and lines; check back for our college football picks and predictions.

The Ducks slipped by UCLA, 34-31, Saturday and have now won back-to-back games – both by one score – since losing at Stanford Oct. 2. Oregon outscored UCLA, 28-3, over the middle quarters, but the Ducks were nearly undone by a pair of late-game interceptions. UO now returns to Autzen Stadium in search of a 17th consecutive victory on home turf.

First look: Iowa at Wisconsin odds and lines

Previewing the Iowa Hawkeyes at Wisconsin Badgers Week 9 matchup, with college football odds, trends and head-to-head records.

The 10th-ranked Iowa Hawkeyes (6-1, 3-1 Big Ten) and Wisconsin Badgers (4-3, 2-2) meet Saturday in Camp Randall Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for noon ET (on ESPN). Below, we look at the Iowa vs. Wisconsin odds and lines; check back for our college football picks and predictions.

Rankings courtesy of the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA Today Sports.

Iowa is coming off a bye. The extra time off probably felt longer than usual for the Hawkeyes as they were knocked off as the No. 2 team in the AFCA Coaches Poll in their last game 24-7 at Purdue Oct. 16. It was a week after they defeated then-No. 4 Penn State 23-20 in a top-five showdown in Iowa City.

Wisconsin ran over Purdue 30-13 Saturday for a third consecutive win. The Badgers, which covered the spread as 3.5-point favorites, outrushed the Boilermakers 290 yards to -13 yards. You read that right. Negative 13 yards. Junior RB Chez Mellusi and freshman RB Braelon Allen recorded career highs in rushing yards, running for 149 yards with a touchdown and 140 yards with 2 TDs, respectively.
