College football Week 5 best underdog bets, picks and predictions
Last week, college football fans were able to find teams that are undervalued in the betting market. Last week there were a few upsets, such as Middle Tennessee's double digit win at Miami and UTEP's 17-point win against Boise State. Other underdogs such. as Kent State, Maryland, Wake Forest, and Oregon State covered the spread. The arrival of Week 5 means conference play is in full swing and games should be highly contested. Through 4 weeks, we are 5-6-1 on these underdog picks of the week. Let’s see if we can push that to a winning record this week!
Illinois Fighting Illini are 4-0 ATS as road underdogs in conference since coach Brett Bielema took over at Illinois last season. Wisconsin Badgers do not have much reliability on offense. Illinois is a scrappy team with a good defense. Tommy DeVito is the quarterback for Illinois. Wisconsin has a low total and a poor offense, so I like the value with Illinois getting 7 points.

Cal Golden Bears are the underdogs against Washington State Cougars. The Bears have a reliable running back in Jaydn Ott and a serviceable quarterback in Jack Plummer. Washington had a big lead against Oregon but lost 44-41. Cal coach Justin Wilcox has been good in the underdog role. The game is on Saturday night. They have to play against USC next week. It's a textbook sandwich spot for Washington. Their team has a road game against the Trojans next.
