Last week, I went 2-2 in my college picks. Not bad, but also not what I expected. I want to make up for that this week and then some. So without further ado, here are my best bets for week 6’s slate of games.

West Virginia vs. Texas (-10.5)

For those thinking that this might be a close game, I’ve got news for you: This isn’t the same West Virginia team you’ve grown accustomed to over the past decade or so. They currently have the worst offense in the Big 12 (even worse than Kansas and Iowa State) and they haven't been able to establish a running game. Sam Ehlinger & co. should be able to carve their defense up and the Mountaineer offense won't have enough firepower to keep pace.

Auburn (-3) @ Florida

Auburn is averaging 251 rushing yards per game, led by RB JaTarvious Whitlow who is averaging more than 5 yards per carry. True freshman QB Bo Nix has had some growing pains as the starter but has been gradually improving every week so far. With that being said, Nix he has yet to face a defense as talented as Florida . This is also Nix’s first true road game in a SEC environment so that may play a factor into his performance. Auburn’s defense has also been playing lights out. Their defensive line has been as good as advertised, allowing less than 3 yards per carry. Florida’s defense is the real deal as well, but two of their best players (DE Jabari Zuniga and corner CJ Henderson) are easing their way back into the lineup after injuries. This will also be Florida backup QB Kyle Trask’s first true test against an elite defense. I don't expect him to pass it.

UCONN vs. South Florida (-10.5)

I know last week I said that Charlie Strong wasn’t a good coach and that South Florida wasn’t really a good team, and I still believe that. But this week, they play one of the worst teams in all of college football. South Florida QB Blake Barnett hasn’t played great but lining up against the Huskies’ defense should be a stat padding game to build his confidence. The Bulls should be able to do whatever they want at will against a UCONN defense that struggles to stop anybody, giving up 36 points per game. For at least one week, South Florida will look the part of one the Group of 5’s best teams.

Oklahoma State (-9.5) vs. Texas Tech

Oklahoma State brings it's offense on the road to face Texas Tech in Lubbock. As quiet as it's kept, the Cowboys have one of the best RBs in the country that no one knows about in Chuba Hubbard. He’s averaging 187 yards per game on the ground and is going up against a defense that has allowed over 500 yards of rushing in the past 2 weeks alone. That is NOT good for the Red Raiders. Barring some type of injury, I don't see Tech being able to stop OK State in any facet.

Maryland (-13) @ Rutgers

The Terps got off to a really fast start this season before getting slowed down the past 2 weeks. I look for their offense to com out and ’go for the gusto’ early against a Rutgers team that just gave up 59 points last week and then fired their head coach. The Scarlet Knights also have one of the worst defenses in the B10 (Big Ten Conference). This should be an easy cover for Maryland.
