College Football Week 6 Betting
The Week 6 college football schedule begins early this week, as the SMU Mustangs visit the Central Florida Knights on ESPN 2. Originally, there was no game scheduled for Wednesday, but because of the damage caused by Hurricane Ian, this game was moved to Wednesday, October 5. Both teams had a bye on October 8th, so this game, originally scheduled for last week was moved to Wednesday night.
When the Nebraska Cornhuskers hired Scott Frost, it was hailed as a Grand Slam home run. Frost is a Nebraska native that quarterbacked the Huskers to the 1997 national championship. As a head coach, he led UCF to an undefeated season that caught national attention. But at Nebraska, he was a disaster and fired earlier this season. The Cornhuskers finally ended a long losing streak against FBS teams, as they beat Indiana last week. In week six, the Huskers have a matchup at the Rutgers Scarlet Knights on FS1. The other televised games on Friday night have Houston at Memphis on ESPN 2, Colorado State at Nevada on FS1 and UNLV at San Jose State on CBSSN.
Of course, one of week six’s biggest games takes place in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. The Alabama Crimson Tide will host the Texas A&M Aggies in what is a CBS prime time matchup. All eyes will be on this matchup between head coaches Jimbo Fisher and Nick Saban. Saban took a shot at Texas A&M and Fisher earlier this year for their top-rated recruiting class that he said was “bought.” Fisher was enraged and shot back at Saban and implied that the Alabama legend had cheated for his entire career. Last year the Aggies upset the Crimson Tide setting up a revenge scenario for each side in this SEC showdown.
One of the great traditional rivalries in college football will renew at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas, when the Texas Longhorns meet the Oklahoma Sooners. Oklahoma rookie head coach Brent Venables will need this game to keep the honeymoon going. In comparison, Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian is trying to prevent the posse from saddling up. Last year Texas blew a huge early lead and lost a heartbreaker to OU.
