6) Penn State -3 at Northwestern
One 4-point loss to Wisconsin moved this line
PSU is still +25.3 per game on the season
Model: PSU by 7.6

Schmeeds Locks: Week 5 ๐

Ole Miss +3 (+102) at Florida
Model: Ole Miss 28, Florida 27
Florida's O is real (54 ppg, 8th in PPA). But Elo has a 191-pt gap for the Rebels, and FPI has Ole Miss 13th vs Florida 16th.
A key number plus juice on a one-point game.
Research, not betting advice.

Write ups Down Below
Texas A&M +8.5 at LSU
Model: LSU 26, A&M 25
Line opened LSU -3. We didn't chase it.
- Elo has A&M higher (1824 vs 1786)
- FPI has LSU by 4.6, not 8.5
- 2025 SP+: A&M 20.7, LSU 10.3
Market is pricing the Clemson blowout. Need A&M within 8.
Missouri ML (+195) at Miss State
Model: Mizzou 53%, 28โ27
Books: about 32%
Line moved from -1.5 to -6.5. SP+ (15.0 vs 12.0), Elo (1690 vs 1663), and 2025 SP+ (14.4 vs 4.1) all lean Mizzou.
Mizzou's D is 5th in havoc (25.4%). Paid 2-to-1 on a coin flip.
Pitt's Mason Heintschel is the first player in ACC history to throw for 6+ TDs in multiple games in the same seasonโผ๏ธ He's the first FBS player to do so since 2021 (C.J. Stroud and Bailey Zappe).
He's only the second player in ACC history to have multiple such games in a career, joining Deshaun Watson who did so in 2014 and 2016 ๐
