CLEMSON TIGERS AT FLORIDA STATE SEMINOLES
November 21st – 12:00 pm ET – Doak Campbell Stadium
The Clemson Tigers were left heartbroken two weeks ago by the Fighting Irish after having their 36-game regular season win streak ended in two overtimes. Clemson still has a shot at reaching the playoffs for the sixth consecutive season though and will be eager to put their loss two weeks ago behind them.
They come into Saturday’s contest as massive favourites and rightfully so considering Florida State has just two wins on the season and have dropped their last three straight.
Look for the Tigers to dominate for the entire four quarters against the Seminoles as they do their best to prove they are still an elite team and a national championship contender. The total is also set quite high but that’s because Clemson will be running the score up. Go with the over and the visitors in what should be a blowout from the start.

INDIANA HOOSIERS AT OHIO STATE BUCKEYES
November 21st– 12:00 pm ET – Ohio Stadium
Despite being the number nine-ranked team in the country, Indiana is getting no respect from the oddsmakers coming into Saturday’s affair. They find themselves as 20.5-point underdogs on the road against the Buckeyes.
While both teams remain undefeated so far this season, neither have really been tested against a top ranked opponent. They have two common opponents so far in Penn State and Rutgers in which Ohio State won by a combined total of 25 points, while Indiana won by a combined total of 17. The Hoosiers also required overtime to beat Penn State.
Ohio State should come away with the win on their home field, but it could prove to be closer than most fans are anticipating. Indiana has looked good early on and should be able to keep the score close against one of the top teams in the country. Neither of these sides have played a team as good as the other this season yet and we should be in for a fun contest.

UCLA BRUINS AT OREGON DUCKS
November 21st– 3:30 pm ET – Autzen Stadium
The UCLA Bruins enter Autzen Stadium on Saturday afternoon as 3.5-point favourites against a team ranked number 11 in the nation. While UCLA earned an impressive victory last week against California, they were taken down in their first game of the season against Colorado.
Oregon on the other hand, have won both games they played so far this season and have looked impressive in doing so. They hosted Stanford two weeks ago in their only game at home this season and took them down with ease.
This could prove to be a close contest, but there is no reason why Oregon should be underdogs by more than a field goal against an unproven UCLA side. Take the home to cover the points and possibly to even win the game outright. The over should also be worth laying money on.

WISCONSIN BADGERS AT NORTHWESTERN WILDCATS
November 21st – 3:30 pm ET – Ryan Field
Both teams come into Saturday’s contest undefeated and ranked within the top 20. Wisconsin has played just two games thus far but won by more than 30 points in both. Northwestern will present them with the biggest challenge early in the season, but the Badgers will not be intimidated.
Northwestern has been somewhat of a surprise after four games played, but they are showing the country that they need to be taken seriously. The Wildcats have not beaten a team ranked within the top 25 though and will be eager to see what they can do against one of the nation’s best.
While Northwestern has been a great story so far, go with the visitors to hand them their first loss of the campaign and to cover the 7.5 points in doing so. Wisconsin is just too good of a team and will want to boost their chances of reaching the postseason with a big win against the number 19-ranked team in the country.

OKLAHOMA STATE COWBOYS AT OKLAHOMA SOONERS
November 21st– 7:30 pm ET – OU Memorial Stadium
It’s rare to see Oklahoma State ranked above their rivals, but that’ll be the case when the two sides lock horns on Saturday afternoon. Oklahoma State are ranked 14 in the nation after winning five of their first six games of the season. Their only loss came in overtime against the number 22 ranked Texas Longhorns.
Oklahoma are 5-2 with losses against Kansas State and Iowa State being the only blemishes on their record. They come into the contest on Saturday as seven-point favourites, despite Oklahoma State having a superior record and beating both Kansas State and Iowa State.
It’ll be a hard-fought battle between two sides desperate to get the job done and as a result is a difficult one to try and predict. The best play in Saturday night’s dogfight is likely the over as it has been set at a reasonable total and both teams can rack up the points when required to.
