It would surprise many fans and gamblers to discover that college football is the second most popular sport in the United States, behind the NFL. A big reason for that is the massive increase in live TV content. Once upon a time, Thursday night football college football would feature one weekly game. These days, Thursday night football serves as a celebration to kick off a long weekend of action. However, college football was so successful with its Thursday night package that it paid the ultimate price. The NFL cut into college football’s success with its Thursday night package. As a result, college football still offers Thursday night TV action. However, most of the games are with lesser-known teams and conferences. Despite the lack of marquee brands for college football’s Thursday night schedule, gamblers don’t care. They love the betting action that is offered. Furthermore, many sharps believe you can get weaker lines and superior betting value opportunities with these lesser brands.
Tulane Green Wave at UTSA Roadrunners, 7:30 PM, ESPN
Tulane enters this matchup with a 6-1 record, showcasing a balanced offense and a resilient defense. Quarterback Jake Retzlaff has been pivotal, efficiently managing the game and contributing both in the air and on the ground. Running back Javin Gordon provides a steady rushing attack, while the receiving corps, including Shazz Preston, offers reliable targets. Defensively, the Green Wave have been solid, limiting opponents' scoring and creating turnovers.
UTSA, with a 3-4 record, boasts a high-powered offense led by quarterback Owen McCown. Running backs Robert Henry Jr. and Will Henderson III complement the passing game with a strong ground presence. The receiving duo of DJ Allen Jr. and David Amador II provides McCown with dynamic options downfield. Despite defensive challenges, the Roadrunners' offense has kept them competitive in the AAC, with linebacker Nnanna Anyanwu bolstering the pass rush.
Players to Watch
Tulane Green Wave
Jake Retzlaff, QB: A dual-threat quarterback who has been efficient in both passing and rushing, leading the Green Wave's offense.
Javin Gordon, RB: Provides a steady rushing attack, complementing the passing game and helping control the clock.
Shazz Preston, WR: A reliable target in the receiving corps, contributing significantly to the passing game.
UTSA Roadrunners
Owen McCown, QB: Leads a high-powered offense with his strong arm and playmaking ability.
Robert Henry Jr., RB: Offers a strong ground presence, balancing the Roadrunners' offensive attack.
Will Henderson III, RB: Another rushing threat who can break big plays and support McCown in the run game.
Marshall Thundering Herd at Coastal Carolina Chanticleers, 7:30 pm, ESPN 2
Marshall enters this matchup with a more productive offense, averaging 35.1 points per game (33rd nationally) and 388.7 yards per game, driven by quarterback Carlos Del Rio-Wilson’s efficiency—he’s thrown for 1,133 yards, 12 touchdowns, and only 1 interception with a 74.4% completion rate. Del Rio-Wilson also leads the team in rushing (348 yards and 4 TDs). Demarcus Lacey is Marshall’s top receiving threat with 484 yards and 4 scores. Marshall’s defense gives up 30.9 points per game and 413.6 yards per game, struggling against the pass but ranking 59th nationally in rushing defense. The Herd boasts an 8th-ranked +8 turnover margin, but converts just 34.7% of third downs and is heavily penalized.
Coastal Carolina’s offense is less explosive, producing just 19.0 points and 305.4 total yards per game (ranking near the bottom nationally). The Chanticleers’ passing game is led by Tad Hudson (447 yards, 3 TDs, 3 INTs), and Ja’Vin Simpkins is the leading rusher with 360 yards and 2 TDs. Bryson Graves has 158 receiving yards on 19 grabs. Defensively, Coastal Carolina surrenders 28.3 points and 409.7 yards per contest, allowing significant rushing gains. The team’s -4 turnover margin and lack of ball control have contributed to their inconsistencies.
Two weeks ago, Marshall survived Texas State 40-37 behind Del Rio-Wilson’s combined 365 yards, while Coastal Carolina earned a 45-37 win over Appalachian State, spurred by Samari Collier’s dual-threat performance.
This matchup will likely hinge on turnovers and third-down execution. Marshall’s explosive offense and positive turnover margin make them slight road favorites, but heavy penalties and defensive struggles could keep Coastal Carolina in contention if the Chanticleers find a rhythm offensively.
Players to Watch
Marshall Thundering Herd
Carlos Del Rio-Wilson, QB: Dual-threat, team leader in both passing and rushing.
Demarcus Lacey, WR: Top receiver with 484 yards and 4 TDs.
Coastal Carolina Chanticleers
Tad Hudson, QB: Key to the passing attack.
Ja’Vin Simpkins, RB: Leading rusher, also productive in the passing game.
Bryson Graves, WR: Reliable receiving option.
