- DraftKings is offering new users $200 in bonus bets after a $5 wager, with the bonus paid within 21 days, promoted alongside Saturday's college football slate.
- Lane Kiffin returns to Ole Miss as LSU's head coach for Saturday's 7:30 p.m. game, and SportsLine expert Micah Roberts is backing Ole Miss (+3) to cover against the Tigers.
- LSU quarterback Sam Leavitt has thrown two touchdowns and four interceptions in two games this season and is listed as questionable for Saturday's matchup, though the source notes the point spread did not move on the news.
- The SportsLine Projection Model is backing Florida State (+19.5) to cover against Alabama, projecting the Seminoles to cover in 66% of simulations; Florida State has covered the spread in each of its last five head-to-head meetings with Alabama, including a 31-17 upset last year as two-touchdown underdogs.
- The model is on a 33-21 run on top-rated CFB money-line picks since the 2024 season and has been upgraded for 2026 to better factor in transfer portal movement.
- Combining both picks into a Saturday parlay at DraftKings would result in a +264 payout (risk $100 to profit $264), with odds subject to change.
Why it matters: New bettors can turn a $5 outlay into $200 in bonus bets plus action on two marquee Saturday games, while the model's 33-21 CFB money-line track record since 2024 gives the Ole Miss and Florida State picks a stated empirical backbone. The LSU QB's questionable status is a real-world variable the market hasn't reacted to yet, which is the angle driving Roberts's pick on the Rebels.
