College Football Week 5 Betting
The Week 5 college football betting schedule gets underway with one game on Thursday, September 29, as Utah State visits BYU on ESPN. There are five games on Friday night, including a good one in the Pac-12 between two unbeaten teams, as Washington visits UCLA on ESPN. Some of big games to watch in Week 5 college football betting are Kentucky at Mississippi, Alabama at Arkansas, Oklahoma State at Baylor, Wake Forest at Florida State and NC State at Clemson.
One of the potential Upset Alert games for week five will be the Alabama Crimson Tide at the Arkansas Razorbacks. Arkansas has shown rapid improvement in two years under head coach Sam Pittman. The Razorbacks play smart and tough with good defense. A sellout crowd will be on hand to add to what could be a dangerous game for the Crimson Tide.
Speaking of potential traps, the Michigan Wolverines will have one at the Iowa Hawkeyes. Iowa is known to be giant killers at home, including against Michigan. Kinnick Stadium is one of the toughest venues in the country, especially for visiting name-brand programs.
Head coach Bryan Harsin and the Auburn Tigers will have a big home game against Brian Kelly and the LSU Tigers. Kelly left the Notre Dame job in-season, with a playoff berth still possible, to take the LSU gig. Kelly tired of all of the restrictions at Notre Dame and wants to coach a powerhouse blue blood before his career is over. Harsin barely survived a coup attempt last spring and his firing could come at any moment.
The Texas A&M Aggies are also in a dangerous spot at the Mississippi State Bulldogs. Mississippi State head coach Mike Leach and the Bulldogs upset the Aggies at College Station last year.
