It’s November and things are starting to get tight in college football. Not just in the playoff chase and in conference races, but in the Week 10 matchups. My college football projection model has six games as pick ’ems.
South Florida at FAU, Minnesota at Illinois, Northwestern at Purdue, North Carolina at Florida State, Arizona State at Oklahoma State and Colorado State at Nevada are the six games my model is basically shrugging at. My model also has Ohio State by just two points at Penn State ahead of Saturday’s showdown. There are a ton more games within a field goal so there’s a good chance of some chaos this week in college football.
For context, the model takes in past performance, returning talent and recruiting rankings. We then compare the model’s projections to the BetMGM lines for extra context.
