No harm, no foul in last week's 2-2 split. We're still in the green for the season and this weekend's slate is loaded.
Let's get to it.
Virginia Tech @ North Carolina (-4.5, 58.5)
North Carolina was supposed to be an "over" machine this year, but they've cashed both unders to start the season. What gives?
Perhaps the Tar Heels' coming-out party will come against a depleted Virginia Tech secondary. There's certainly enough star power to keep the scoreboard operator busy, plus the Hokies - who are averaging 7.2 yards per play - will have quarterback Hendon Hooker back under center this week.
Expect a track meet.
Pick: Over 58.5
Arkansas @ Auburn (-13.5, 46.5)
College football unders that look more like NFL totals are difficult to bet on, but I have to pull the trigger here. Auburn's offense has looked extremely unimaginative through two games and Arkansas hasn't been the same punching bag defensively as it was a season ago.
The Razorbacks are averaging a lackluster 4.1 yards per play, while the Tigers have been marginally better with 4.4. Both offenses will play in what could be a crawl on Saturday.
Pick: Under 46.5
Florida @ Texas A&M (+6.5, 58)
Bettors haven't had a chance to sell Florida's offense quite yet. The Gators opened with Ole Miss and South Carolina - two defenses that would bend the knee to most explosive units. But going against a pretty stout Texas A&M defense seems like a pretty optimal spot to jump ship.
The Aggies were no match for Alabama in last week's rout, but let's be honest: Not many are. Plus, facing the Tide's speed should've been a nice tune-up with quarterback Kyle Trask and his skilled supporting cast on deck.
I'll bet on Jimbo Fisher's defense here.
Pick: Florida team total under 31.5 or better
UL Monroe @ Liberty (-19, 60.5)
I'm probably a week late on UL Monroe's offense, but I'll bite in this spot.
The Warhawks averaged 10 points through their first three games to open the year. They finally broke through last week against Georgia Southern, hanging 30 points in a five-point loss. As bad as UL Monroe's been this season, the offense has averaged more yards per play than 24 college football teams. So it hasn't been that bad.
They will stay on track against an offense-first Liberty team - the Flames can score at will behind Auburn transfer signal-caller Malik Willis.
One thing's for sure: I wouldn't want anything to do with this under.
Pick: Over 60.5
2020 betting record: 8-6
