College Football Best Bets | September 26, 2026 feature image.

Saturday, September 26 brings one of the strongest college football boards of the young season.

CTS Best Bets

Tennessee +4.5 vs. Texas

Texas faces its first true road test at Neyland. Tennessee has scored 47.7 points per game while allowing 14.0, giving us enough reason to take more than a field goal at home.

Iowa-Michigan Under 38.5

Iowa has allowed 4.3 points and 176.7 yards per game. Michigan has allowed 13.0 points and roughly 220 yards per game. We prefer the Under to choosing a side.

Florida -3.5 vs. Ole Miss

Ole Miss comes off an emotional LSU win and now travels to Gainesville. We are comfortable laying less than four with Florida at home.

Ole Miss-Florida Over 58.5

Ole Miss has already shown explosive SEC offense, and Florida has enough playmakers to contribute rather than asking one side to carry the total.

USC +3 vs. Oregon

USC has scored at least 39 points in every game and averages more than 340 passing yards. We want the field goal at home.

Oregon-USC Under 61.5

The total has climbed from the high 50s into the low 60s. We would rather sell the inflated shootout number.

Texas A&M +9.5 at LSU

The market has moved dramatically toward LSU. Nearly double digits gives us enough cushion to back A&M and Marcel Reed’s mobility.

Missouri-Mississippi State Over 58.5

Both offenses have enough quarterback play and explosive ability to push this beyond four touchdowns per side.
