College Football Betting: Week 12
LSU and Oklahoma State are both 10-0 and sitting 1-2 in the AP Top 25 Poll heading into Week 12 of the college football season, and both schools are pegged as big favorites on the betting lines for their weekend contests. Here's how the college football betting board looks for the top teams heading into Week 12 of the season . . .
No. 1 LSU at Mississippi
The Tigers rolled to an easy 42-9 win over Western Kentucky in Week 11, and they aren't expected to have any trouble against Mississippi this weekend either – they're 28.5-point road favorites in the contest on the betting lines at 5Dimes. LSU is the consensus top team in the AP Poll with just two games left on their season schedule.
No. 2 Oklahoma State at Iowa State
The Cowboys picked up an even bigger win over the weekend, bouncing Texas Tech by a 66-6 score on the road. Oklahoma State QB Brandon Weeden threw five touchdown passes for his team in that win, and they're listed as 25-point favorites on the betting board at 5Dimes for their road game against Iowa State on Friday night.
Georgia Southern at No. 3 Alabama
At 9-1 on the season – and with a loss to LSU on their resume – the Crimson Tide will need some help to get to the BCS Championship Game this season. They get a home game against Georgia Southern of the Southern conference this weekend before returning to their regular SEC schedule the following weekend against Auburn.
No. 18 USC at No. 4 Oregon
Oregon's only loss this season came against LSU as well – way back in Week 1. The Ducks climbed back up to No. 4 in the AP Poll by thumping then-No. 3 Stanford by a 53-30 score on the road over the weekend. Oregon gets another tough matchup this Saturday night as they host ranked USC as a 14.5-point favorite on the 5Dimes lines.
No. 5 Oklahoma at No. 25 Baylor
The Sooners will be trying to avoid looking ahead to their showdown with Oklahoma State on December 3 as they play on the road against ranked Baylor this weekend. Oklahoma's only loss this season came at the hands of Texas Tech back on October 22, and against Baylor on Saturday night they're set as 13.5-point favorites at 5Dimes.
