This past weekend, Florida A&M allowed 479 total yards to South Carolina State. They were gashed repeatedly on the ground and through the air by an opponent that plays in the MEAC. 

Miami's offense will have a chance to score on each of its offensive possessions on Thursday. In Week 1, the Hurricanes had 42 points with over 20 minutes remaining in the game before taking their foot off the proverbial gas pedal late in the contest. Still, they managed 27 first downs and 549 total yards on the road against a Stanford defense that many pundits thought could take a step forward in 2026.

Miami was unstoppable against Stanford in their season opener, with Darian Mensah and Malachi Toney routinely connecting for big gains in the middle of the field. Mensah finished with 401 passing yards and 5 touchdowns. He only had 3 incompletions on 30 pass attempts. Toney was unguardable, getting open with ease against man-heavy looks from Stanford's defense. 

The Hurricanes' offense looks like one of the best in the country. Mensah and Toney are both bona fide Heisman candidates who are likely to pad their stats in Miami's home opener against an inferior opponent. This game could get ugly.

Rutgers lost to UMass, but UMass' head coach, Joe Harasymiak, is a better coach than Bill O'Brien, and Pop Watson is a better QB than Mason McKenzie. McKenzie completed 51.4% of his passes, racking up three turnover-worthy plays, and averaging 3.26 seconds to throw in a Week 1 loss to Cincinnati. With KJ Duff and Antwan Raymond carrying the offensive load, Rutgers can keep this close.

Rutgers is looking to bounce back after an embarrassing Week 1 loss to UMass as a nearly 30-point favorite. Now, the Scarlet Knights head to Boston as 3.5-point underdogs against a Boston College team that also opened the season with a loss. The Eagles were 7.5-point underdogs against Cincinnati and struggled on both sides of the ball, turning the ball over and allowing more than 250 rushing yards. Rutgers has plenty of returning talent, including along the offensive line and at running back, where Antwan Raymond rushed for more than 1,200 yards last season. Week 1 was rock bottom. Rutgers has the opportunity to start climbing out Friday night.

Furthermore, the Ducks should be motivated to start fast after a slow start in Week 1, and they are on a business trip, which helps them get locked in quicker. Or at least that's my working theory.

That familiarity should help the Wildcats navigate a tough road matchup.

UNLV has already covered plenty of ground to open the season, traveling to Hawaii last week before returning to the mainland for a matchup with North Texas. That travel could create a difficult spot for the Rebels, especially against a Mean Green team that showed plenty of fight against reigning national champion Indiana. Despite losing star quarterback Drew Mestemaker to Oklahoma State and undergoing a significant roster overhaul, North Texas still outgained the Hoosiers and averaged 5.5 yards per play in a 52-16 loss.

The Yellow Jackets should lean on Justice Haynes and their home-field advantage while using Mendoza’s mobility to extend drives.

How to Use NCAAF Computer Picks

As human beings, we're bound to be biased with our picks and potentially fall into the trap of swinging with the public. With advanced stats growing in popularity and getting harder to track, college football computer predictions are starting to become more relied on.

Moneyline

Betting on a moneyline simply means you're picking the outright winner of the game, regardless of the scoring margin or total. If the team you choose wins, then your bet hits. Here's what it will look like over at your favorite sportsbook:

TeamMoneyline
Alabama Crimson Tide-120
Missouri Tigers+150

In this case, Alabama is favored to win the game as its moneyline odds have a minus sign (-) in front of the number. The favorites will have the minus sign present, and the underdogs will have a plus sign (+). Easy, right?

Spread

Betting the spread gives your bet a bit more breathing room. Here, you don't need to sweat out a team to win. Instead, you can wager on the point differential on the scoreboard.

Betting on the spread is a good idea when the moneyline profits aren't enticing. There's no point betting on Alabama as a heavy -1500 favorite over Missouri. But taking Missouri to keep the scoring margin within a certain frame will get you more bang for your buck.

TeamSpread
Alabama Crimson Tide-24.5 (-105)
Missouri Tigers+24.5 (-115)

In this example, the Tide are favored to dominate their game against Missouri, outperforming them by at least 24.5 points.

If Alabama does win by more than 25 points, that would mean the Crimson Tide covered the spread. But if the Tide won by just 20 points, then that would mean the Tigers "covered the spread" instead.

Totals

If you think the outcome of a game could flip in either direction, then an Over/Under is the way to go. This bet relies on the combined score from both teams and whether it goes Over or Under the point total listed at sportsbooks. Then, who cares who wins?

TeamTotal
Alabama Crimson TideO 52.5 (-110)
Missouri TigersU 52.5 (-110)

In this example, oddsmakers have set the total score for the game at 52.5 points. The choice is now up to you. If you think the Tide and Tigers will score a combined total of more than 52.5 points, 53 points or more, then pick the Over. If you're thinking otherwise, then bet the Under, and the bet will hit if they score fewer than 52.5 points.

If the set number was a whole number like 52 points and the two teams score exactly that amount, then it is considered a push and you'd get your money back.
