Tulane at South Florida picks and predictions

Prediction

South Florida 77, Tulane 69

Moneyline

PASS.

USF (-315) should win, but the Bulls are not worth the risk of betting on as such heavy favorites. Bet on the spread and/or total.

Against the spread

LEAN SOUTH FLORIDA -7.5 (-105).

South Florida has covered the spread in back-to-back outings and is 8-1-1 in its last 10 games while Tulane is only 3-7 ATS in its last 10 outings. The Bulls have also been the better team ATS this season as they are 18-6-3 while the Green Wave are 11-15-1.

This is only a lean because Tulane has been good competition for USF over the years, winning 6 of the last 10 meetings and going 7-3 ATS.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 156.5 (-110).

The Under has hit in 3 of Tulane’s last 4 overall and has hit in 3 of its last 4 road games. For South Florida, the Under 4-2 in its last 6 games and is 18-9 for the Bulls this season. The Under has also hit in 4 of the last 5 Tulane-USF meetings.

This is only a lean because the Over has been safer for the Green Wave this season.

Tulane at Rice odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Tulane at Rice odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Tulane Green Wave (6-1, 3-0 AAC) and Rice Owls (4-3, 2-1) meet Saturday at Rice Stadium. Kickoff is scheduled for 4 p.m. ET (ESPN2). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Tulane vs. Rice odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

The Green Wave have rattled off 5 straight wins since a lone setback at Ole Miss back on Sept. 9. However, Tulane has managed to cover just once in the past 4 outings, although it is 2-0 against the spread (ATS) on the road this season.

Rice gave the Tulsa Golden Hurricane a 42-10 shellacking in their place last week, and it is a healthy 5-2 ATS in 7 games overall. As an underdog, Rice is 2-0 ATS, with an outright win as a 7-point ‘dog against Houston on Sept. 9. The Over is on a 5-1 run for the Owls, too.

Tulane is No. 23 in the US LBM Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Tulane at Rice picks and predictions

Prediction

Tulane 34, Rice 29

Moneyline

Tulane (-400) will cost you 4 times your potential return, and that’s just too much risk, especially on the road in a conference game. Rice (+300) has 3 losses overall, but it is capable of hanging in a shootout with plenty of offensive weapons.

AVOID, and look to the spread instead.

Against the spread

RICE +10 (-110) catching double digits is a lot. Take advantage.

While Tulane -10 (-110) is 6-1 straight up (SU), it has covered just twice in the past 6 games overall, and it is 0-3 ATS in 3 games as a double-digit favorite this season.

For Rice, it does have an inexplicable home loss to UConn. However, it has covered 3 of 4 games overall at home.

Over/Under

OVER 55 (-105) may be the best play on the board.

The Over has connected in 5 of the past 6 games for Rice, and it’s the pass game which drives the offense. The well-traveled QB JT Daniels has helped Rice rank 12th in passing yards per game (319.9), while racking up 34.0 PPG. While Tulane is very good against the run, it ranks 118th against the pass (263.1 yards per game), which is Rice’s strength. That’s what will keep the Owls in this high-scoring game.

North Texas at Tulane odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s North Texas at Tulane odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The North Texas Mean Green (3-3, 1-1 AAC) and Tulane Green Wave (5-1, 2-0) meet Saturday at Yulman Stadium in New Orleans. Kickoff is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET (ESPN2). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the North Texas vs. Tulane odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

The Mean Green rolled up a 45-14 victory against Temple in Denton last weekend, easily covering a 7.5-point spread as the Under (65.5) cashed. UNT has covered in consecutive games for the 1st time this season, while also cashing the Under in back-to-back games. North Texas has scored 39 or more points in 4 of the past 5 games.

The Green Wave returns to the Top 25 rankings after their 31-21 win at Memphis last Friday, cashing as 4-point favorites. The Under (54.5) narrowly cashed in that game, and the total has gone low in 5 straight outings for Tulane despite the fact Tulane has scored 31 or more points in each of the past 3 games.

Tulane is No. 24 in the US LBM Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.

  • Over/Under (O/U): 63.5 (O: -105 | U: -115)

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

North Texas at Tulane picks and predictions

Prediction

Tulane 40, North Texas 29

Moneyline

Tulane (-1400) will cost you 14 times your potential return, or just $7.14 of profit for every $100 risked. That’s a ridiculous amount of risk for not nearly enough reward, even when tucking this into a multi-team parlay.

AVOID.

Against the spread

NORTH TEXAS +20.5 (-115) catching nearly 3 TDs is quite a bit of points.

The Mean Green have cashed 3 of the past 4 games against the spread, and this is an offense which can handle itself with aplomb. If UNT is to get involved in a shootout, it has the offensive weapons to be successful.

The Green Wave also have plenty of weapons like QB Michael Pratt, who has completed 70.7% of his passes for 927 yards, 9 TD and 1 INT, while running for 121 yards and 2 TD, while WR Lawrence Keys III and RB Makhi Hughes are also offensive studs. This is going to be a fun game.

Over/Under

OVER 63.5 (-105) is a really big number, but this is going to be a contest resembling a video game, with plenty of splash plays and scores.

While Tulane has cashed the Under in 5 in a row, it will have a difficult time holding down a prolific UNT offense. Unfortunately for the Mean Green, defense isn’t exactly a hallmark, and Tulane should have its way at times. The scoreboard operator at Yulman Stadium better limber up, because he/she is going to be busy.

Tulane at Memphis odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Tulane at Memphis odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Tulane Green Wave (4-1, 1-0 AAC) and the Memphis Tigers (4-1, 1-0) meet Friday night at Simmons Bank Liberty Bowl in Memphis for an American Athletic Conference battle. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET (ESPN). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Tulane vs. Memphis odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

Since Tulane was on the short end of a 37-20 loss at home against Ole Miss on Sept. 9, the Green Wave have bounced back with 3 straight wins against Southern Miss, Nicholls and UAB. Tulane topped UAB 35-23 last time out on Sept. 30, but it failed to cover the 22.5-point number, and it is just 1-3 ATS in the past 4 games overall.

Tulane’s defense has been solid lately, allowing a total of just 33 points in the past 3 outings, while the Under has hit in 4 straight contests.

The Tigers lost in a neutral-site game against Mizzou on Sept. 23, just missing the cover on a 6.5-point spread in a 34-27 loss. It bounced back with a 35-32 win over Boise State, pushing as 3-point favorites at most shops.

Opposite of Tulane, Memphis has cashed the Over in 3 straight games, scoring 27 or more points, while allowing 24 or more points, with an average of 30.0 PPG during the span.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Tulane at Memphis picks and predictions

Prediction

Tulane 32, Memphis 29

Moneyline

Tulane (-200) is a strong play to win straight up, especially if you don’t want to fiddle around with points in a potentially close game, but it’s hard to justify spending 2 times what you can win.

The Green Wave has won 3 of 4 games outright against non-Power 5 teams, scoring 35 or more points in each of those contests.

There is a risk, however, as the home team has won each of the past 6 meetings outright. Memphis (+165) is also 3-1 SU in the past 4 games as a home underdog.

PASS and look to the spread or total.

Against the spread

MEMPHIS +4.5 (+110) is a very good play, especially since the home side has fared so well in the series over the past half decade.

Tulane -4.5 (-110) has covered 3 straight in the series, while going 6-2 ATS in the past 8 in the series. Still, the Tigers are also a tough team to beat at home, and it wouldn’t be shocking to see this game decided by 3 or fewer points.

Over/Under

OVER 54.5 (-110) is the lean. The total has gone high in 3 straight games for Memphis, while going 4-1 in 5 games overall this season.

For Tulane, the Under has cashed in 4 in a row, but it’s not because of a lack of offense. The Green Wave has scored 35 or more points in 3 of 5 games this season. And the Over is 3-1 in the past 4 meetings in this series, too, while cashing in 3 straight, and 4 of the past 5, played at the Liberty Bowl.

Tulane at Southern Miss odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Tulane at Southern Miss odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Southern Miss Golden Eagles (1-1) welcome the Tulane Green Wave (1-1) to M.M. Roberts Stadium Saturday. Kickoff is set for 4 p.m. ET (ESPNU). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Tulane vs. Southern Miss odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

Southern Miss lost 66-13 to current-No. 3 Florida State as a 31-point underdog last Saturday as it failed to build off a 40-14 season-opening victory over Alcorn State 40-14 as a 24-point favorite on Sept. 2.

The Golden Eagles are led by QB Billy Wiles, who has 421 yards and 3 touchdowns on the season. Southern Miss has yet to open conference play in the Sun Belt as it continues its quest to build on a 7-6 season last year.

Tulane, which plays in the American Athletic Conference, also failed to build on a season-opening victory by losing in Week 2. The Green Wave were toppled 37-20 by No. 19 Ole Miss as a 13.5-point underdog last Saturday and beat the South Alabama Jaguars 37-17 on Sept. 2, covering as a 6.5-point favorite.

Tulane QB Michael Pratt is a game-time decision and missed the Green Wave’s loss to Ole Miss. He has 4 touchdowns and 294 passing yards on the season. QB Kai Horton will start a 2nd straight game if Pratt is forced to miss the outing.

Tulane at Southern Miss picks and predictions

Prediction

Tulane 31, Southern Miss 17

Moneyline

PASS.

Tulane (-500) should pick up the victory Saturday but there’s no value on a -500 moneyline wager.

Against the spread

BET TULANE -13 (-110).

The Green Wave came up short last week, but they had a 17-10 lead at half and were tied going into the 4th quarter against a ranked opponent. While Horton didn’t have a great game, he showed he can competently fill in for Pratt. Tulane went 5-0 ATS on the road last year and was one of just 4 teams to have 4-plus road games last season and cover all of them.

Southern Miss was exposed against FSU, and while Florida State is superior to Tulane, the Golden Eagles have too many holes defensively to limit the Green Wave. They allowed 3 Seminoles to average more than 10 yards per carry in the loss — Tulane’s offense should erupt and cover here.

Back TULANE -13 (-110).

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 49.5 (-110).

Southern Miss has opened the season 2-0 to the Over but its offense was limited to 13 points against a quality opponent, which Tulane is. The Green Wave limited Ole Miss to 10 points in the first and South Alabama to 17 for the whole game. They should be able to hold Southern Miss to 20 or fewer points.

Tulane, without Pratt, scored just 20 on Ole Miss. With Pratt’s status up in the air, taking fewer points is the safer wager here. If Pratt plays — and it might be smart to wait here until that is decided — I would ultimately pass as he’s a game-changing threat for the Green Wave.

Prediction

Ole Miss 35, Tulane 26

No value here: PASS.

Against the spread

Tulane has won 5 in a row ATS and is 5-1 ATS over its last 6 home games.

The Green Wave were sharp in pass defense last week, allowing just 190 yards through the air despite leading the Jaguars wire-to-wire. The Wave crashed through for 5 sacks in that game.

Look for enough from Tulane on that side of the ball in this home contest, a big regional, big-brother-little-brother tussle that will have TU at its best.

BACK TULANE +7 (-105).

Over/Under

This line has steamed upward through the week and is now ripe for value on the Under.

Both offenses benefited from turnovers and short-field scores in week 1.

South Alabama at Tulane odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s South Alabama at Tulane odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The South Alabama Jaguars and Tulane Green Wave swing into the 2023 season Saturday when they clash in a battle at Yulman Stadium in New Orleans. Kickoff is slated for 8 p.m. ET (ESPN). Below, we analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the South Alabama vs. Tulane odds, and make our expert college football picks and predictions.

South Alabama went 10-3 in 2022, doubling their win total from the 2021 season in what marked the winningest campaign in program history. The Jaguars were 4th in the Sun Belt in both total offense and total defense. They won their final 5 games of the regular season before eventually falling in the New Orleans Bowl.

Tulane tied its program record for wins in a single season, when the Green Wave went 12-2 last fall. TU captured an American Athletic Conference title and won a bowl game (Cotton Bowl) in a special run that saw the team — which is currently ranked No. 23 in the USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll — finish 5th in the American in total offense and 3rd in total defense.

South Alabama at Tulane picks and predictions

Prediction

Tulane 27, South Alabama 23

Moneyline

South Alabama is the lean here, but AVOID unless you can wait out a Jaguars +220 return somewhere.

Against the spread

Both teams are looking to keep going with the momentum of 2022. The visiting Jaguars bring back a bit more talent from last season. Where that talent lies, and what’s missing from Tulane figures into this play.

The Green Wave has lost its top 5 tacklers from a year ago, and TU was better against the pass to begin with.

Look for a balanced USA attack to leverage the run and make this game close.

TAKE SOUTH ALABAMA +6.5 (-110), which is an offering from FanDuel Sportsbook.

Over/Under

In South Alabama’s last 10 games as a road underdog of 7 points or less, the Under is 7-3.

Rain is in the New Orleans weather forecast, and the running game, combined with new clock rules, make for an attractive Under.

TAKE THE UNDER 51.5 (-110).

Cincinnati at Tulane picks and predictions

Prediction

Tulane 82, Cincinnati 77

Moneyline

In this AAC showdown, I’ll take TULANE (-130) at home. The Green Wave are 9-2 at home, while the Bearcats are 3-3 on the road this season.

Against the spread

TULANE -1.5 (-110) is the pick with the Green Wave needing to win by just 1 basket to cover the spread. The Green Wave are 8-3 ATS in their 11 conference games this season.

Tulane is 5-1 ATS in its last 6 games against a team with a winning record. On top of that, the home team is 5-1 ATS in the last 6 meetings and the favorite is 8-3 ATS in the last 11 meetings.

Over/Under

Both of these teams score with ease, making OVER 152.5 (-115) an enticing bet. Cincinnati is averaging 76.5 points per game (69th in the nation) and Tulane is averaging 81.4 points per game (18th in the nation) this season.

The Over is 8-2 in Tulane’s last 10 home games against a team with a losing road record.
