Notre Dame at Stanford: Odds, betting lines and picks

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Friday at 9:20 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Notre Dame 31, Stanford 17

Moneyline (ML)

Notre Dame is laying -834 on the moneyline.

Stanford (+500) must run often to keep Notre Dame off the field and set up the passing attack. Notre Dame’s main weakness is stopping the run but Stanford barely tops 100 yards per contest on the ground. Furthermore, Notre Dame has too many offensive weapons not to win here.

The odds are too chalky with a $10 bet fetching a profit of only $1.20. PASS.

Against the Spread (ATS)

Notre Dame is just 7-4 against the spread overall and 2-2 ATS away from home, coming in at 0.6 points per game above the cover line. Stanford is 3-3 ATS at home and exceeds the cover by 0.9 points per contest.

Back the CARDINAL (+16.5, -115). Irish QB Ian Book and Notre Dame have looked great in their last three games but this one will be closer than expected at Stanford.

Over/Under (O/U)

The projected total is 46.5. This will be razor-thin close and all depends on Notre Dame. If the Irish come out with a purpose and play downhill, the Over hits easily. If Stanford controls things early, then the Under is very likely. A little more of Column A will be enough to push the OVER (-106).

That pick will make a profit of $9.43 on a $10 bet Saturday if the two teams combine for 47 or more points.

California at Stanford odds, picks and best bets

Previewing Saturday’s California Golden Bears at Stanford Cardinal sports betting odds and lines, with college football picks and best bets.

The California Golden Bears (5-5, 2-5, Pac-12 North) and Stanford Cardinal (4-6, 3-5) battle in the ‘Big Game.’ Each side can either knock the other from bowl contention or seriously hamper their rival’s efforts. We analyze the California-Stanford odds and betting lines, while providing college football betting tips and advice on this matchup.

California at Stanford: Three things you need to know

1. Cal RB Christopher Brown Jr., the team’s leader on the ground, is questionable due to a head injury. He joins starting QB Chase Garbers (shoulder) on the injury report. The starter was knocked from last week’s game after aggravating his shoulder injury. If Garbers cannot go, QB Devon Modster will take back over.

2. Whomever starts for Cal will see a banged-up secondary for the Cardinal. CBs Treyjohn Butler (undisclosed) and Obi Eboh (undisclosed) are questionable, while CB Paulson Adebo (undisclosed) and S Malik Antoine (undisclosed) are out.

3. Even with a healthy secondary, Stanford’s Achilles’ heel has been its pass coverage, as the Cardinal are 119th in the nation with 281.4 passing yards allowed.

California at Stanford: Odds, betting lines and picks

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated Friday at 8:30 p.m. ET.

Prediction

California 34, Stanford 23

Moneyline (ML)

CALIFORNIA (+105) is worth a look as a small road underdog. With or without Brown and/or Garbers, the Golden Bears showed their depth last week with RB DeShawn Collins stepping in for a career-high 103 rushing yards. Modster has plenty of experience running the offense, too, and he might be effective with Stanford (-129) so banged up defensively.

New to sports betting? A $10 wager on California to win would return a profit of $10.50.

Against the Spread (ATS)

CALIFORNIA (+2.5, -115) is a decent play if you feel the game will be decided by less than two points. Hey, it worked for me in the NC State-Georgia Tech game Thursday night, as I cashed with the Wolfpack (+2.5) whereas I would’ve lost on the moneyline. That’s a rarity, though. If you’re feeling the Bears, the better value is the ML.

Over/Under (O/U)

OVER (39.5, -110) is the play. Sure, it’s a rivalry game, and there will be a lot of hitting early on, but I am not sure Stanford has the horses to keep Cal from moving all over the field. The defense hasn’t been great even when healthy. It won’t take much to hit the Over in this one, and it has cashed three of the past four for the Cardinal, and nine of the past 13 inside the conference. For Cal, it’s a 2-0 over run after a spate of Unders in October.

Stanford-Washington State odds: Cougars double-digit fave at home

Previewing Saturday’s Stanford Cardinal at Washington State Cougars college football matchup, with NCAA football betting odds, picks and best bets

The Stanford Cardinal (4-5, 3-4 Pac-12 North) visits the Washington State Cougars (4-5, 1-5) Saturday at 4:30 p.m. (on the Pac-12 Network).

We analyze the Stanford-Washington odds and betting lines, while providing college football betting tips and advice on this matchup.

Stanford at Washington State: Three things you need to know

1. Stanford hasn’t had much success against Washington State over the last five years, failing to cover the spread in each of their previous five contests.

2. Stanford has had success in the win/loss column, however, coming away with a victory in eight of the last 11 meetings between the two sides.

3. Washington State is currently in the midst of a massive slump as it has lost four of its previous five games.

Stanford at Washington State: Odds, betting lines and picks

Odds via BetMGM; access USA TODAY Sports’ betting odds for a full list. Lines last updated at 1 a.m. ET.

Prediction

Washington State 35, Stanford 24

Moneyline (ML)

WASHINGTON STATE (-400) opens this game as a pretty significant home favorite over Stanford (+300) despite both teams having just four wins apiece on the season. However, with Washington State averaging close to 40 points per game this season, it’s tough to envision a scenario in which Stanford can ultimately win this game. While it could be close, expect the Cougars to ultimately take home the win at home.

New to sports betting? A $40 wager on Washington State returns a profit of $10.

Against the Spread (ATS)

WASHINGTON STATE (-10.5) is the play here. While Washington State has recently struggled against conference opponents, Stanford is struggling to find any consistency on offense as it has dealt with multiple injuries on that side of the ball. Expect this game to be close for a while, but for the Cougars to eventually cover the spread.

Over/Under (O/U)

The O/U is 63.5 (-106, –115), which would usually feel low considering a contest featuring a Mike Leach-led team. However, Stanford has one of the worst offenses in college football, averaging less than 22 points per game. Expect Washington State to do a lot of scoring, but for the UNDER to hit in this contest.
