Luke Altmyer, UNDER 1.5 Passing Touchdowns at -225 (Ohio State vs. Illinois)
The Ohio State defense has given up two touchdowns this season (five games). Altmyer is a solid quarterback and Illinois has a good offense, but they haven’t faced a defense as suffocating as Ohio State’s will be. I wouldn’t be shocked if the Buckeyes pitched another shutout.
Arch Manning, UNDER 205.5 Passing Yards at -115 (Texas vs. Oklahoma)
Manning has averaged 220+ yards per game, but has had 295-yard and 309-yard performances against weak teams, augmenting that number. Most of the competition he’s faced hasn’t been too tough, but the Sooners have one of the best pass defenses in the country. It’s going to be a long day for Arch.
Fernando Mendoza, UNDER 226.5 Passing Yards at -115 (Indiana vs. Oregon)
Oregon has been allowing just 123.4 passing yards a game, but the Hoosiers have the No. 5 offense, boasting the most efficient passing game in the country. The Hoosiers are pretty good, too. Indiana will have success in the passing game, but they’ll be more focused on getting their No. 5 run game on track.
Mendoza will have a solid day in the passing game, but I don’t expect to see much more than 200 yards if he gets that far.
