The college football season continues to roll right along, as we are now entering week 3. It has already been a crazy few weeks of college football action and that should continue this weekend.
Betting the point total is always a good option when looking at college football games. Here are five of the best college football week 3 over/under picks to make.
Oklahoma Sooners at Nebraska Cornhuskers
Oklahoma vs. Nebraska Predictions
Best Bet: Under 62.5 Points
Nebraska hosts Oklahoma on Saturday, as these longtime rivals are set to meet up for a huge non-conference game. Oklahoma has gotten off to a 2-0 start, while Nebraska is just 1-2 and are now looking for a new head coach.
Both of these teams are loaded with offensive weapons and each team has been putting up big point totals to begin the year. This game will be played out a bit differently, though, as there will be some defense.
Take the under 62.5 points, as 30 points will be enough to win this game.
College Football Over/Under Odds
Liberty Flames at Wake Forest Demon Deacons
Liberty vs. Wake Forest Predictions
Best Bet: Over 62.5 Points
A pair of 2-0 teams meet up on Saturday when Wake Forest plays host to Liberty. If you are someone that loves to watch offense, then this is easily the game for you.
Wake Forest is scoring over 44 points per game this season and they are going to take plenty of shots down the field. Liberty has been solid on defense through two weeks, but they are a team that has plenty of offensive talent as well.
Take the over 62.5 points as Wake Forest is going to make sure this game is played at a fast pace.
Penn State Nittany Lions at Auburn Tigers
Penn State vs. Auburn Predictions
Best Bet: Under 49.5 Points
A pair of 2-0 teams are set to meet up in week 3, as the Auburn Tigers host the Penn State Nittany Lions. Each team has picked up a dominant win so far this season in one game, while also struggling in the other.
Both teams can score, but they each do it by running the football a ton. Penn State and Auburn are both terrific defensive teams as well and this is going to be a game that is played at a slow pace.
Three touchdowns might be enough to win this game, and taking the under 49.5 points is the best bet to make.
College Football Over/Under Picks
Michigan State Spartans at Washington Huskies
Michigan State vs. Washington Predictions
Best Bet: Under 56.5 Points
It will be Big Ten vs. Pac-12 on Saturday, as Washington hosts Michigan State. This over/under line has felt off since it was released, as both teams have been pretty dominant on defense.
Michigan State has allowed just 13 total points this season and the Spartans want to win games on the defensive end. Washington is scoring close to 50 points per game, but they won’t find a ton of success against Michigan State.
This game will be physical and feature a ton of runs. Take the under 56.5, as there just won’t be much scoring in this game.
Texas Tech Red Raiders at NC State Wolf Pack
Texas Tech vs. NC State Predictions
Best Bet: Over 55.5 Points
Texas Tech looks to pull off an upset on Saturday night, as they take on the Wolf Pack of NC State. The Red Raiders are scoring 48 points per game, while the Wolf Pack aren’t far behind at 38 points per contest.
NC State has also been a terrific defensive team this season, but it’s hard to slow down Texas Tech. There will be some big plays made in this one, and that will push the total amount of points over 55.5.
