- BetMGM is running a bonus code CBSSPORTS promo for new users: $150 in bonus bets if the first wager wins, or up to $1,500 in bonus bets if the qualifying bet loses, with the offer varying by location.
- SportsLine expert Mike Tierney is backing Iowa (+14) against Ohio State at 3:30 p.m. ET, citing Iowa's home ATS record against ranked opponents (covering in losses to sixth-ranked Oregon and 11th-ranked Indiana last season) and a defense yielding an FBS-low eight points per game.
- SportsLine expert Tom Fornelli is on the Under 48 in Miami-Clemson at 7:30 p.m. ET, pointing to Miami receiver Malachi Toney playing at less than 100% and potential weather conditions as factors that could suppress scoring.
- Washington is the basis for the Under 58.5 in the 7:30 p.m. ET game against USC, with the Huskies allowing just 17 ppg against FBS opponents this season and the Under hitting in 6 of the last 7 head-to-head meetings; the SportsLine model projects the Under at a 60.3% rate.
- A three-leg parlay combining Iowa (+14), Under 48 Miami-Clemson, and Under 58.5 Washington-USC pays +611 at BetMGM Sportsbook (risk $100 to profit $611, odds subject to change).
- The SportsLine Projection Model enters Week 5 on a 32-24 run on top-rated college football picks, returning nearly $600 for $100 players after simulating every FBS game 10,000 times.
Why it matters: New bettors get up to $1,500 in bonus bets to deploy on a loaded Saturday slate, and each of the three featured picks is grounded in concrete data: Iowa's home ATS record against ranked visitors, Miami's injury to Malachi Toney, and Washington's defense allowing just 17 ppg in FBS games. A combined three-leg parlay of all three picks pays +611, giving bettors a single high-upside structure rather than three separate wagers.
