5. Washington (-10) vs. Minnesota (+10) — Sept. 26
One of the largest disagreements between the market and the Carter Ratings this week comes in Washington vs. Minnesota. The market has Washington favored by 10 points, but the model sees this game as nearly a toss-up.
The Carter Ratings give Minnesota a 48.07% chance to win, compared to a 24.39% implied probability at the current +310 moneyline. That's a difference of roughly 23.68 percentage points. The spread discrepancy is even larger. At Minnesota +10 (-108), the market requires a 51.92% break-even rate, while the Carter Ratings give Minnesota a 76.33% probability of covering, a difference of roughly 24.41 percentage points.
This isn't simply a case where the model thinks 10 points is slightly too many. The Carter Ratings have just 3.86 percentage points separating these teams in outright win probability, despite Washington being a double-digit favorite.
The market has Washington favored by 10. The Carter Ratings see something much closer to a coin flip. 📊👀
4. Mississippi State (-6.5) vs. Missouri (+6.5) — Sept. 26
The final matchup on the Week 4 watchlist gives us another significant disagreement over how these teams are priced. Mississippi State is favored by 6.5 points, but the Carter Ratings essentially have this game as a coin flip.
The Carter Ratings give Missouri a 50.25% chance to win, compared to a 33.90% implied probability at the current +195 moneyline. That's a difference of roughly 16.35 percentage points. At Missouri +6.5 (-112), the market requires a 52.83% break-even rate, while the Carter Ratings give Missouri a 61.44% probability of covering, a difference of roughly 8.61 percentage points.
The spread gives Missouri nearly a touchdown of protection in a matchup the model views as essentially even. The Carter Ratings actually give Missouri a slight outright edge despite Mississippi State being favored by nearly a touchdown.
Mississippi State is laying 6.5. The Carter Ratings have Missouri slightly more likely to win outright. 📊👀
3. UCF (+3) vs. TCU (-3) — Sept. 26
Another major market disagreement comes in UCF vs. TCU. The market has TCU favored by a field goal, but the Carter Ratings have UCF as the significantly more likely team to win outright.
The Carter Ratings give UCF a 65.29% chance to win, compared to a 43.48% implied probability at the current +130 moneyline. That's a difference of roughly 21.81 percentage points. Against the spread, UCF +3 (-110) requires a 52.38% break-even rate, while the Carter Ratings give UCF a 73.12% probability of covering, a difference of roughly 20.74 percentage points.
The full field goal provides some protection, but the bigger story is the outright projection. The Carter Ratings aren't simply expecting UCF to keep this close — the model has UCF winning the game outright nearly two-thirds of the time.
TCU is favored by 3. The Carter Ratings have UCF winning outright. 📊👀
2. Florida (-3.5) vs. Ole Miss (+3.5) — Sept. 26
Another matchup where the Carter Ratings disagree with the market favorite comes in Florida vs. Ole Miss. Florida is laying 3.5 points, but the model gives Ole Miss the slight advantage to win the game outright.
The Carter Ratings give Ole Miss a 54.33% chance to win, compared to a 43.48% implied probability at the current +130 moneyline. That's a difference of roughly 10.85 percentage points. Against the spread, Ole Miss +3.5 (-120) requires a 54.55% break-even rate, while the Carter Ratings give Ole Miss a 60.56% probability of covering, a difference of roughly 6.01 percentage points.
The discrepancies aren't as large as some of the other games on this week's watchlist, but the important part is the direction of the projection. Florida is favored by more than a field goal, yet the Carter Ratings have Ole Miss as the more likely outright winner.
Florida is laying 3.5. The Carter Ratings have Ole Miss winning outright. 📊👀
1. Maryland (+1.5) vs. UCLA (-1.5) — Sept. 26
One of the strongest underdog projections on the Week 4 board comes in Maryland vs. UCLA. UCLA enters as a slight favorite, but the Carter Ratings see considerably more separation between these teams — in Maryland's direction.
The Carter Ratings give Maryland a 67.60% chance to win, compared to a 50.00% implied probability at the current +100 moneyline. That's a difference of roughly 17.60 percentage points. At Maryland +1.5 (-110), the market requires a 52.38% break-even rate, while the Carter Ratings give Maryland a 73.33% probability of covering, a difference of roughly 20.95 percentage points.
With such a short spread, the bigger story is which team the model expects to win. The market has UCLA as the favorite, while the Carter Ratings give Maryland better than a two-thirds chance of winning outright.
The market sees UCLA as the slight favorite. The Carter Ratings see Maryland as the more likely winner. 📊👀

The full Week 3 Saturday Betting Card is locked in. 🏈📊
34 plays across 17 games today. The Carter Ratings has found value across the board — favorites, a few underdogs, and a few spots where the model sees the market's pricing very differently. Please note, these picks are intended to find value in the market, and not necessarily to always select the correct team to win, although that is still a primary goal.
An example is USC -21.5, but Rutgers ML. The Carter Ratings projects the Trojans to cover and win handedly, however there is some value to be found with Rutgers ML as a single wager due to the market overpricing USC moneyline. The same can be said for games such as Notre Dame vs. Michigan State and UCLA vs. Purdue. Please just keep in mind if a favorite is projected to cover, like USC, that is the team the Carter Ratings projects to win, despite selecting Rutgers ML, although that pick may have better value. 💰
