Following a quartet of games on both Monday and Tuesday, college football season continues with 3 on Thursday. It includes an all-ranked showdown between #12 Washington and #20 Texas, while Florida State, Oklahoma, Syracuse and Minnesota are also in action.
Here is Thursday's bowl-game mega parlay'
For this parlay we are going with 1 underdog on the money line, 1 underdog against the spread and a favorite against an alternate spread. Let's break down each of the 3 legs.'
Syracuse +10 over Minnesota (-110)
Ten points are a lot in what could be and should be a defensive struggle, so I will happily take them with Syracuse in the Pinstripe Bowl. Minnesota ranks outside the FBS top 110 in passing yards per game at just 185.9 and regular starting quarterback Tanner Morgan is questionable after missing the last 3 games of the regular season due to injury. Syracuse is giving up a modest 22.7 points per game, so it should be able to stay competitive. The Orange are surely going to keep the ball on the ground and run behind a stout offensive line, thus letting the clock run. Syracuse may not win outright, but a cover should be in the cards.'
