“Bear Bets” are actual wagers that Chris “The Bear” Fallica is definitely making.
School soccer Week 7 is right here!
Similar to final 12 months, we’re going to do weekly picks posts and have a playing present.
As at all times, I stay up for sharing my greatest soccer bets and playing nuggets (Bear Bytes) with you all all through the season.
So, if you’re seeking to throw a couple of bucks down on the massive video games, I’ve obtained you lined.
Let’s have some enjoyable and, hopefully, make some cash.
Listed below are my favourite wagers for Week 7.
Document:
Final Week: 6-1
Season: 16-19
(All occasions ET)
SATURDAY, OCT. 12
No. 1 Texas vs. No. 18 Oklahoma (3:30 p.m., ABC)
I do know the historical past on this sequence with double-digit ‘canine, however I simply don’t see it. Oklahoma is likely one of the worst Energy 4 offenses on the market and the Texas protection has been probably the greatest items within the nation. Additionally, the Longhorns are off an idle week and quarterback Quinn Ewers is again. After sort of giving the sport away final 12 months in opposition to OU, this might get ugly rapidly. There can be no looking forward to the go to from Georgia subsequent week.
PICK: Oklahoma group whole Below 17.5 factors scored
PICK: Texas (-14) to win by greater than 14 factors
No. 4 Penn State @ USC (3:30 p.m., CBS)
SC is coming off a 17-point outing in opposition to Minnesota, and issues gained’t get any simpler for the Trojans offensive line right here in opposition to probably the greatest defenses within the nation, one which ranks seventh in FBS in success charge. Undecided I wish to lay the factors right here, as I don’t absolutely belief Penn State to cowl virtually a landing, however I do belief the protection to do its job in opposition to a slumping SC group.
PICK: USC group whole Below 22.5 factors scored
Michigan and USC lose in Week 6 upsets, whereas Ohio State dominates
Purdue @ No. 23 Illinois (3:30 p.m., FS1)
Purdue might be the worst Energy 4 group on the market. Its protection has allowed 52, 28, 38 and 66 in opposition to Energy 4 opponents this 12 months and the offense has been held to 10 or fewer in three of the 4 video games. The Boilermakers are going to win — at most — one sport the remainder of the 12 months. It simply would not appear to be a state of affairs that is going to get higher anytime quickly in West Lafayette. Nevertheless, Illinois is not precisely going to gentle it up on offense and can doubtless use a number of time on its drives. And with a giant sport subsequent week in opposition to Michigan, after which at Oregon the week after, don’t be stunned if the Illini win ugly right here in a low-scoring, look-ahead kind sport.
PICK: Below 50 factors scored by each groups mixed
No. 2 Ohio State @ No. 3 Oregon (7:30 p.m., NBC)
Oregon has had bother ending drives in latest weeks and Ohio State is so good on protection, particularly within the secondary. I feel factors can be exhausting to come back by for the Geese. That stated, Ohio State may need bother with an excellent Oregon defensive entrance as nicely. Below is the play I like probably the most within the largest sport of the day.
PICK: Below 54 factors scored by each groups mixed
