What do you know, another 1-1 week of College Football Picks. Nebraska easily got over the line as 25 point underdog at Ohio State. On the other end, UCF failed us as fake sharp favorites against BYU. This week, we have a ton of great action to choose from and cash that coveted 2-0 mini sweep. Below, we will take a look at the week 10 slate and cash some picks for Saturday.
Week 10 College Football Picks
Oregon -14.5 at Michigan (48.5)
The number one team in the land heads to the Big House to take on the defending champion and un ranked Michigan Wolverines. In short, I do not believe Oregon is the best team in the country and there will be massive short opportunities in the near future. No matter the season, winning at the Big House is never an easy task for road teams.
At this point, Michigan is 5-3 and has not had much going for them. I will say, they do look like a more competent team under this new regime and style of play. I expect Michigan to really control the pace here, which makes that 14.5 a lot more valuable.
We just saw Oregon finish off Purdue but they really let the Boilermakers move the ball. I was shocked to see how easily Purdue got down the field before giving it up near the 20. That may be a bit of a concern for the Oregon defense and I would like to see how Michigan fares against them.
The Pick: Michigan +14.5
UCLA (40.5) at Nebraska -6.5
The Huskers return home off back-to-back losses on the road. They got absolutely smoked by the Indiana wagon and hung in there with Ohio State. At 5-3, Nebraska are in an alright spot and has a great chance to get to 6-3 this week. They should be very confident with the fact that they just played Ohio State so close.

UCLA is coming in off the buy but it is a back-to-back road spot. They were a very similar number on the road at Rutgers. They got the job done as road dogs to weeks ago. Telling us that this poor UCLA team is around the same number at Rutgers and at Nebraska is a crime. The Huskers are a more complete team and playing in Nebraska is no joke. These UCLA boys may be in for a long Saturday facing a very hungry Nebraska team.
The Pick: Nebraska -6.5
