College Football Week 2 Early Odds, Picks & Prediction: TCU vs. Tarleton State
TCU vs. Tarleton State
TCU QB Chandler Morris left last Friday’s 38-13 win over Colorado with a knee injury. Coaches ruled out Morris for Saturday’s game against Tarleton, and early reports suggest he could miss a month.
QB2 Max Duggan, the former starter, relieved Morris and outplayed him, sparking the offense. Morris, more of the pocket-passer, went a meager 13-of-20 for 111 yards. Duggan only attempted three passes, completing two for 27 yards, but he abused the Buffs on the ground for 41 yards on three carries.
Duggan is bigger, more athletic, and a more productive runner than Morris and also has a stronger arm. But Duggan has always struggled with turnovers and accuracy. He won’t be tested in that regard this weekend.
But it’ll be worth checking in on this game to see how Duggan is acclimating in the pocket to HC Sonny Dykes’ Air Raid system. That’s intel we can use later this month.
What is Betting Against the Spread?
Betting “against the spread” refers to the act of choosing the winning team based on a numeric handicap placed on the team that oddsmakers believe is superior, rather than picking the outright winner. For example, if the Rams face the Bengals, and oddsmakers set the spread at Rams -3.5, you would need Los Angeles to win by 4 or more points in order to cash your Rams bet.
What is an Over/Under Bet?
Over/Under is a wager based on how many points you think will be scored in a specific game. Oddsmakers set the total, and bettors decide whether the final score will be higher or lower than that number. If an Over/Under is set at 44.5 points and you bet Over, you will need the combined score of both teams to be 45 points or higher to win your bet.
What is a Moneyline Bet?
A moneyline bet involves choosing which team you believe will win a specific matchup. The moneyline favorite carries a minus designation, like -130. This means that you need to wager $130 to earn a $100 profit. Conversely, the underdog carries a plus designation, like +110. This means that you win $110 in profit on a $100 bet.
