The Cowboys have more hope this year, mostly because they have a veteran quarterback and the Sooners have been inconsistent with freshman QB Spencer Rattler, who’s not yet near the level of predecessors Jalen Hurts, Kyler Murray and Baker Mayfield. Oklahoma was favored by 14 in its 34-16 win last year in Stillwater. Gundy is 2-13 against Oklahoma, his last win coming in 2014 when the Cowboys were 19-point underdogs in Norman. Oklahoma State is obviously the little brother in this rivalry, and coach Mike Gundy has taken a lot of beatings. The Aztecs have the slightly better defense and running attack, but Strong gives the Wolf Pack a significant edge at quarterback. The underdog will start to attract action if the line moves to 3. San Diego State opened as a 2-point favorite. These are the second- and third-best teams in the Mountain West behind Boise State. This matchup in Reno is another that should go down to the wire. The Wolf Pack also beat the Aztecs two years ago 28-24. Strong helped lead Nevada, a 17-point dog, to a 17-13 win in San Diego last year. Strong has 1,517 passing yards, 12 TDs and one interception in four games. Sophomore star Carson Strong threw for 336 yards and three touchdowns to lead the Wolf Pack back from a 10-0 deficit. Nevada, 4-0 SU and 3-1 ATS, failed to cover as a 17½-point favorite Saturday in a 27-20 victory over New Mexico in Las Vegas. The Aztecs, 3-1 straight up and ATS, must get much more from their passing attack to hang with the Wolf Pack, who have the far better quarterback named Carson. San Diego State’s defense forced three turnovers and limited Hawaii to 275 total yards. Greg Bell carried 19 times for 160 yards and two touchdowns as the Aztecs totaled 326 rushing yards. Baker went 4-for-13 in the Aztecs’ 34-10 victory over the Warriors, who were defenseless against the run. Whittingham is a bet-on coach, and the Utes should be live underdogs.īelieve it or not, San Diego State’s Carson Baker passed for only 30 yards and threw two interceptions yet was the winning quarterback Saturday against Hawaii. Circa Sports opened USC -4, and the number was quickly bet to -3. The Trojans were whipped 41-28 in a visit to Salt Lake City in 2018. USC coach Clay Helton is 15-12 straight up and 10-17 ATS the last two-plus seasons. Sophomore quarterback Kedon Slovis has completed 71.4% of his passes for 706 yards and three touchdowns with one interception, but the offense has been a bit disappointing. The Trojans have been living on the edge, beating Arizona State and Arizona with last-minute touchdowns. The USC coaches will be preparing for a mystery team, which should work to Utah’s advantage. South Carolina transfer Jake Bentley and Texas transfer Cameron Rising were co-favorites to win the job, with Drew Lisk as the underdog. 1, and while Whittingham has picked the starter, he has not announced it publicly to preserve the element of surprise. The Utes had seven players selected in the NFL draft - only Alabama, LSU, Michigan and Ohio State had more - and quarterback Tyler Huntley and running back Zack Moss must be replaced. Only nine starters returned for Utah, which will be making its season debut after two games were canceled because of COVID-19. He went 11-3 straight up and 9-4 against the spread last season, when the Utes won the South Division. Utah coach Kyle Whittingham is rock solid in all areas. USC has a talent advantage against most Pac-12 opponents, but the coaching edge usually points to the other sideline, and that will be the case in this game.
