Free Week 6 NCAA Football Pick
I don’t want to take anything from Duke’s impressive win on the road last week, but their offense is about as one-sided as you can get. The quarterback is the team’s leading rusher and the top receiver is a tight end.
4* Free NCAA Betting Pick: PITT by 6.5
Pittsburgh has been solid on defense. They lost 17-10 at Penn State and won 35-34 vs. UCF. Yes, the Panthers starting quarterback, Kenny Pickett, is questionable for the game. That being said, it’s not Pitt’s offense that will win the game for them. I like Pitt and the points.
