Now we\u2019re nice and warmed up. Let\u2019s win some money. Here are some trends to watch for some of the marquee games this Saturday \u2013 starting with the early-day matchups.<\/p>\n<p>SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 11<\/p>\n<p><strong>South Florida (1-0) vs (3) Florida (1-0)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The South Florida Bulls tend to perform well against the spread when they\u2019re playing with confidence. They\u2019re 4-0 ATS in their last four after allowing fewer than 170 passing yards the previous game, 4-1 ATS in their last five after allowing fewer than 20 points the previous game and 5-2 ATS over their last seven following an ATS win. Meanwhile, though Florida is 8-2 ATS over its last 10 following an ATS loss, it\u2019s 1-4 ATS over its last five following a straight-up win over more than 20 points.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Michigan (1-0) vs Notre Dame (1-0)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Sports betting\" href=\"http:\/\/www.joeduffy.net\/\">Sports betting<\/a> players have a tough choice in this rivalry game because the Wolverines and Fighting Irish both show some alarming trends against the spread. Michigan is just 2-7 ATS over its last nine following a straight-up win and 1-4 ATS over its last five road games. But Notre Dame is 8-20 ATS over its last 28 home games and just 1-7 ATS over its last eight following a straight-up win. The safest bet is the OVER: it\u2019s 7-3 over the last 10 meetings and 5-0 over the last five meetings at Notre Dame.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(20) Florida State vs (8) Oklahoma<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Florida State is one of many powerhouse schools that rest on their laurels too much after big wins. It\u2019s just 7-21-1 in its last 29 after winning by 20 or more points the previous game. Though Oklahoma is 2-5 ATS in its last seven overall, it\u2019s 11-3-1 ATS in its last 15 September games and 6-1 ATS after allowing more than 280 passing yards the previous week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Colorado vs California<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Teams seem to underestimate Colorado far too often; the Buffaloes are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games versus teams with winning records. But California will work hard to put a hurt on Colorado; it\u2019s 12-5 ATS over its last 17 home games. Bears\u2019 games trend toward the OVER; it\u2019s 11-3-1 over their last 15 non-conference affairs.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(12) Miami vs (2) Ohio State<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This is an exciting matchup \u2013 but perhaps an easy one to predict at the <a title=\"sportsbook\" href=\"http:\/\/affiliates.commissionaccount.com\/processing\/clickthrgh.asp?btag=a_1206b_609\">sportsbook<\/a>. Ohio State isn\u2019t just a school many bettors think will win it all this year; it\u2019s a juggernaut against the spread. The Buckeyes are 40-18 over their last 58 games ATS and 8-1 ATS in their last nine against teams with winning records. Miami looks like a risky play; it\u2019s 11-27 ATS over its last 38 games following an ATS win.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As Jim \u201cthe Anvil\u201d Neidhart and the Reggie Bush grab sports headlines, college football wagering news has this week\u2019s point spread trends up.
