    Analysis

    Is this a homer pick? Possibly. But after what I saw last week in person against Iowa State, I'm convinced that my Arizona Wildcats are the real deal. This game was a 16-point advance line in August and has moved down to just about a field goal. I have no idea how Texas Tech will respond after being throttled by Cincinnati last week, the same Bearcats team who lost 34-7 to Arizona in Tucson earlier this month. The Wildcats have the second-best passing attack in the Big 12 and a Heisman finalist contender in Noah Fifita. Texas Tech has the third worst pass defense in the Big 12. I smell an upset. Arizona 27, Texas Tech 23.

    Analysis

    Arizona's offense has been great on the season, but struggled on the road against BYU earlier this year. That was the only real defense it's seen. Tech may not be the 2025 Tech, but it still has a strong defense, and a questionable offense of its own.

    Spread
    Picked: Oct 30 @ 7:15pm

    Analysis

    Behind the brilliance of QB Noah Fifita, the No. 13 passer in FBS, Arizona has reeled off five Ws in a row, the last three by an average of 28 points. Home or away, it doesn’t matter to the fourth-year starter, whose split stats are similar. Texas Tech, which was counting on gambling-troubled Brendan Sorsby at QB until he was ruled out, has been unfulfilled by replacement Will Hammond, and he apparently will split time with a colleague. Hammond has rolled ugly sevens — seven TD passes and interceptions — this season. The Red Raiders’ RBs might offer little relief against a defense yielding only 110 yards per game on the ground. Let’s go-ah with Noah.

    Picked: Oct 30 @ 10:59pm

    Analysis

    A season ago in October Texas Tech suffered their only loss of the season on the road at Arizona State. The next week they had their biggest conference home win of the season winning 42-0 against Oklahoma State. This I expect to be a tougher battle, as Arizona has won eleven out of their last twelve regular season games. Look for the Wildcats to put the pressure on Texas Tech to avoid consecutive losses, and finally show some growth against a ranked opponent. Take UofA plus the points.

    Analysis

    Wanna know how I am a sports nerd? I stay up late/get up early to wait for the FCS lines so I can jump them before anyone gets a sense. True story. So I suppose 50% dedication, 25% smart and 25% Lambda Lambda Lambda. Princeton has looked great in its two home games, and Cornell's only road win in three tries is at Georgetown, which honestly I didn't know had a football team until today. Obviously grew up on the Hoops Hoyas. Ivy League game notes are hilarious. They mention some football stuff but mainly who their parents are and donors. So not much help there. What I'm seeing is generally Princeton by about 3.5 model-wise.
