The best bets from this Saturday's college football slate

Week 2 of the college football season was another one to remember.
Baker Mayfield made his case as the Heisman favorite and planted a flag straight through the hearts of Ohio State fans, while Lamar Jackson reminded the world why he won the award last year, putting up over 500 total yards against North Carolina on the road.
Week 2 was also another winner for our gambling picks. While Baylor was a disappointment and UAB came up short against Ball State in a game I mistakenly thought was at home (sorry folks), USC, Fresno State, and Georgia all covered for us, leading to a somewhat average but still profitable record of 4-3.
This week's slate presents another opportunity to make some bets, with more powerhouse matchups and historic rematches.
If you want a bit of early action, Boise State might be a good place to start on Thursday night, but for the purposes of this column we're going to keep our picks to the Saturday schedule.
