FRIDAY: Oregon State Beavers (+19.5) at No. 11 Boise State Broncos, Noon ET, FOX Oregon State impressed me last week—not great, but better than expected.

Pick: Michigan +20.5 No. 8 Tennessee Volunteers (-11.5) at Vanderbilt Commodores, Noon ET, ABC Nico’s success has come against weak teams. Vanderbilt won’t win but should keep it closer than expected. Pick: Vanderbilt +11.5 No. 5 Notre Dame Fighting Irish (-7.5) at USC Trojans, 3:30 p.m. ET, CBS Notre Dame’s offense is clicking, and their defense will overwhelm USC. The Irish are CFP-ready. Pick: Notre Dame -7.5 No. 6 Miami Hurricanes (-10.5) at Syracuse Orange, 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPN This feels like a trap game for Miami. Syracuse has enough firepower to pull off the upset in a shootout.

Jahiem White, West Virginia ($4,300) – White offers consistent production and should excel against Texas Tech’s struggling run defense. Wide ReceiverOronde Gadsden II, Syracuse ($5,200) – In a potential shootout with Miami, Gadsden is Syracuse’s best chance to stay competitive.
