| The Cornhuskers enter Eugene having covered all five of their point spreads vs. FBS-level foes this season. |
| The Deacs are now a sparkling 12-3 vs. the line their last 15 games since early 2025, with the lone spread L this season in the opener vs. Akron when the Zips slipped in the backdoor very late in a 38-16 Wake romp. |
| The Lobos continue to offer great spread value for second-year head coach Jason Eck, now 13-4 vs. the number since early last season, and 5-0 against the spread to begin the current campaign. |
| The host Aztecs have failed to cover the spread in five of their six games to date in 2026. |
| After a late surge last week vs. Kansas, the Utes have now covered six-straight games since late last season, with their outright win streak at 11 since a loss to BYU at midseason a year ago. Meanwhile, the Buffs, who lost this matchup 52-7 last year in Salt Lake City, have now dropped seven-straight Big XII games, covering the spread in only one of those since midway in the 2025 campaign. |
| "Totals" alert at the Sun Bowl, as the visiting Spartans have landed under the number in five-straight since their high-scoring opener at USC. Also note the lowly Miners have dropped seven-straight spread decisions at home vs. FBS-level opposition. |
| The Cougars are now 9-3 against the spread over their last 12 as an underdog for head coach Kalani Sitake dating to late in the 2023 campaign. |
| The surging Bruins have won-and-covered their first five games this season for new head coach Bob Chesney. |
| The Huskies continue to offer poor spread value for interim HC Rob Harley, just 1-4 vs. the line this season (sneaking inside of a 30+ number at Arizona for the only cover), and now 6-20-1 vs. the number since the stunning 16-14 upset win at Notre Dame early in the 2024 campaign. |
| After six consecutive spread losses at home in Colorado Springs, the Falcons finally got a home cover in the recent 14-9 Commander-in-Chief's win over Navy. |
| You have to go back to the final week of the 2019 season (vs UConn) to find the last time that Temple was anywhere near this big of a favorite against an FBS-level opponent. |
| It's been a rough start to the season for the Huskies, who have dropped all six of their games vs. the spread, and now 0-7 vs. the line in regular-season games since late last year. |
| Coastal Carolina has won-and-covered each of the last four meetings with outright upsets in all four contests. The Chants beat the Mountaineers as a 10.5-point road 'dog last season, scoring a pair of touchdowns with less than four minutes remaining. |
| This total was pushed into the 70s early in the week for good reason, as both of these sides are 4-1 to the "over" this season. |
| Dating back to the end of last season, six of East Carolina's last seven games have stayed under the total. Much like the Pirates, the Blazers are on a similar run of "under" results with seven of their last eight games staying under the total. |
| Old Dominion has won-and-covered each of the last three meetings, including a 45-10 road win at Georgia Southern last season. The Monarchs out-gained the Eagles by 302 yards in that contest, and ODU has cleared the 550-yard mark in each of the last two meetings. |
