College Football Week 6 Picks And Top 25 Matchups

Five new teams moved into the AP Top 25 this week including No. 16 Kentucky, who was a bonus pick and outright underdog winner for us in our Week 5 Top 25 betting report. The Top 25 picks went 2-0 and opinions 2-1, and we move onto college football Week 6 with four more match-ups.

I break down the key Top 25 match-ups with added information you can bet on in my weekly college football picks, opinions, leans and profiles at Offshore Gaming Association.

Please recognize the betting lines move and adjust, and I provide this information for news and entertainment purposes with added info and betting data from leading online sportsbooks as a media contact.

College Football Stats Leaders

There are 10 teams in college football that have out-gained all of their opponents this season. Eight of these teams have a yards per play differential of at leat 2.0 YPPL (offense YPPL vs defense YPPL). These teams are even more attractive when the leading online sportsbooks make them an underdog. Such was the case when we picked and bet on Florida as a big underdog in their 2-point loss against No. 1 Alabama in our 3-0 sweep in Week 3. Last week, Arizona State beat UCLA on the road as an underdog. I bet the Sun Devils, but only include the Top 25 match-ups in this report.

(Yards Per Play Offense / Yards Per Play Defense)

Arizona State (7.2 / 4.4) 449 YPG Offense
Coastal Carolina (8.3 / 4.6) 541
Florida (7.0 / 4.9) 509
Fresno State (6.2 / 4.9) 490
Georgia (6.6 / 3.2) 433
Iowa State (6.8 / 3.8) 469
