Week 9 of the college football season is loaded with some great games, just as every week seems to be. That means there are some great betting opportunities as well, especially if you vary the different betting types that you use.
One of the best ways to bet on college football is to look at the game total and there are some great options in week 9. If you are betting on college football, then here are the five best week 9 over/under picks to make.
Ohio State Buckeyes at Penn State Nittany Lions
Ohio State vs. Penn State Predictions
Best Bet: Under 61.5 Points
The Penn State Nittany Lions are going to try to do all that they can to slow down the mighty Ohio State Buckeyes on Saturday. Ohio State has been able to score points in a hurry this season and they do most of the damage through the air.
Penn State is not a team that is great on offense and they are going to push the point total down in this game. Look for this game to finish under 61.5 points, as Penn State will do all that they can to make it that way.
TCU Horned Frogs at West Virginia Mountaineers
TCU vs. West Virginia Predictions
Best Bet: Over 69.5 Points
TCU might be on a path to the College Football Playoff this season and they are getting it done on offense. The Horned Frogs are led by quarterback Max Duggan and they just continue to overwhelm opponents.
West Virginia is another team that can score and it should lead to a high-scoring game on Saturday. It might take 40 points to win this game and that will push the point total to over 69.5.
Notre Dame Fighting Irish at Syracuse Orange
Notre Dame vs. Syracuse Predictions
Best Bet: Under 46 Points
It has been a miserable season for the Fighting Irish and they are underdogs on the road at Syracuse. The Orange have been a pleasant surprise this season and that team nearly knocked off Clemson in week 8.
Notre Dame can’t keep up with Syracuse on offense and they will be looking to win this game on the defensive end. Field goals and field position will matter in this battle. That’s going to keep the game total under 46 points.
Oklahoma State Cowboys at Kansas State Wildcats
Oklahoma State vs. Kansas State Predictions
Best Bet: Over 58 Points
The Big 12 Conference continues to be a league that features a ton of high-scoring games. There are some teams that are trying to win games on defense, but Oklahoma State and Kansas State are not in that mix.
It’s going to take a big day on offense to win this game and it should be a fun one to watch. Take the over 58 total points, as both teams are able to hit on some big plays in this one.
Kentucky Wildcats at Tennessee Volunteers
Kentucky vs. Tennessee Predictions
Best Bet: Under 63.5 Points
The Tennessee Volunteers just continue to roll over opponents and they feature an offense that is almost unstoppable. Kentucky will try to slow them down in week 9 and the Wildcats have been able to get that done against most teams.
The Wildcats want to try and keep this game to a low score and they will be running the football a ton in this one. It’s still going to be a great day on offense for Tennessee, but the point total is going to end up under 63.5.
