4* Free Week 7 NCAA Betting Prediction: BYU +5
TCU has struggled with turnovers in their passing game lately. As the away underdogs, I’m leaning towards BYU to cover the spread at +5.
The Cougs are 8-1 SU in their last 9 games, and they’re 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games when playing on the road against TCU.
BYU could even win this outright if a few bounces go their way. It has to be said the public are likely all over TCU in this one, so wait a bit to see if you can grab a better line, if you, like me are taking BYU ATS on Saturday.
I have this one coming in around 57 total points. Small lean to the OVER.
The total has gone OVER in 4 of Brigham Young’s last 5 games, also the OVER has hit in 7 of BYU’s last 8 on the road.
