- DraftKings promo code gives new users $200 in bonus bets after a $5 wager, paid within 21 days
- Ohio State (No. 1) faces No. 4 Texas at 7:30 p.m. ET in Austin with Texas favored by 1.5 points; SportsLine's Micah Roberts picked the Buckeyes, citing Julian Sayin's expanded sophomore role and Manning's turnover problems
- SportsLine Projection Model takes Georgia Tech (+12.5) to cover against Tennessee in Atlanta, projecting a 57% cover rate across 10,000 simulations
- The model is on a 33-20 run on top-rated CFB money-line picks since the 2024 season and was upgraded for 2026 to better factor in transfer portal movement
- Combining both picks into a DraftKings parlay yields a +271 payout on a $100 risk
- Georgia Tech is coming off a 14-13 loss to Colorado where a last-second field goal was blocked, while Tennessee went 5-8 against the spread last season
Why it matters: New DraftKings users get a 40-to-1 conversion on their first $5 wager into $200 in bonus capital tied to Saturday's two biggest college football matchups; the model and expert both back underdogs, and a two-leg parlay of those picks pays +271.
