College Football Predictions and Picks
Memphis at UNLV (Sat, 10:00 p.m. ET)
UNLV -4.5 (-105)
Spread
UNLV's own yardage total sits higher than Memphis's (406.5 to 382.5), a modest but real edge for the home team in what should be a competitive season opener.
Over 55.5 (-110)
Total
Combined team totals here already sit near 57 points on their own individual lines, and with nearly 800 combined yards projected between both offenses, this looks like a genuine track meet.
Marcus Stokes 2+ Passing Touchdowns (+134)
Passing Touchdowns
Stokes carries a real passing workload at 220.5 yards, and a plus-money price for multiple touchdown passes is fair value in what projects as a genuinely high-scoring game for both sides.
