College Football Week 4 Trends
Special to OutKick The Coverage from OddsShark.com
Looking for marquee schools to cover huge point spreads in Week 4 of the college football betting season?
You might find more reasons to fade those schools, if these trends hold up.
Alabama is coming off a rare home loss and lays 38 points as of midweek at shops monitored by OddsShark.com. But in this role when laying 30 points or more, Alabama is 2-11 ATS since Nov. 2011. They are also 0-4 ATS against Sun Belt schools recently, despite pummeling them regularly.
Texas is a rare home underdog as they host Oklahoma State as three-point home pups. In 12 seasons, they have been home underdogs just nine times, but have lost eight and covered only twice.
Do you like Ohio State to cover 34 points against Western Michigan? They are 1-5 ATS the past six times laying 30 or more points. And bettors who dig Florida as small home chalk to Tennessee should know the Gators have disappointed them five straight times in conference home games.
