'BIG Bets': Will Ohio State, Oregon register blowout wins?

BIG Bets: Will Ohio State and Oregon register blowout wins? This question looms large in the world of college football as fans and analysts eagerly await the outcomes of the upcoming games.

Colin Cowherd and Jason McIntyre recently shared their insights on “The Herd,” where they analyzed key matchups and offered their best bets for Week 5 of the college football season, particularly focusing on several Big Ten teams.

The excitement builds as they prepare to break down the action.

(All times ET)

MINNESOTA @ NO. 12 MICHIGAN (noon, Saturday, FOX and the FOX Sports app)

Colin’s pick: Under 35.5 points

Colin’s thoughts: “Michigan struggles with its passing game, while Minnesota has managed to shut out two of its first three opponents. The matchup showcases two strong defenses and offenses that face limitations.”

J-Mac’s pick: Over 35.5 points

J-Mac’s thoughts: “Following an exhilarating victory, Michigan may experience a slight regression. Their defense might be complacent, allowing Minnesota to score 14 to 17 points, while Michigan ultimately secures the win.”

WISCONSIN @ NO. 13 USC (3:30 p.m., Saturday, CBS)

Colin’s pick: USC -15.5

Colin’s thoughts: “USC is poised for a bounce-back blowout against Wisconsin. After finding their rhythm in the second half against Michigan, they extended their drives effectively, despite struggling against the formidable Michigan D-line.”

NEBRASKA @ PURDUE (noon, Saturday, Peacock)

J-Mac’s pick: Nebraska -10

J-Mac’s thoughts: “Purdue is struggling tremendously. Even Notre Dame, a team that has faced challenges, managed to score 60 points against them. Purdue’s defense has been unable to stop even the simplest of plays.”

NO. 3 OHIO STATE @ MICHIGAN STATE (7 p.m., Saturday, Peacock)

Colin’s pick: Ohio State -23.5

Colin’s thoughts: “Ohio State boasts the No. 3 scoring offense in the nation. Under Chip Kelly’s guidance, this offense is expected to improve week by week. They are a team that will continue to evolve and dominate.”

NO. 8 OREGON @ UCLA (11 a.m., Saturday, FOX and the FOX Sports App)

J-Mac’s pick: Oregon -26

J-Mac’s thoughts: “Oregon has been slow to find its rhythm this season. They barely edged out Boise State by three points but then dominated Oregon State, winning by a significant margin. They seem to be hitting their stride.”
