Last week's best college football teaser hit with ease, and for the first time this season, we're in position to make it back-to-back weeks. And what better way to make that happen than by going with the two best teams in college football against the spread? We're taking TCU and UConn in this week's teaser.
Not only is TCU undefeated, they're the best team in college football against the spread at 8-1-1. And despite beating Texas with ease last week on the road, the Horned Frogs are favored by less than a field goal on the spread this week against Baylor.
And things haven't been going all that well for Baylor lately. The Bears got smoked last week against Kansas State, and no knock on KSU, they're just not on the same level as TCU. Is there a chance Baylor pulls off the upset? Yeah, maybe. After all, the Bears could view this game as their national championship. However, every week pundits say not to take TCU, and yet, all they do is keep on winning.
The Horned Frogs sure as hell don't win pretty, but they do win. And in case they don't win, don't expect it to be by more than a field goal, which is OK, since the teaser boosts the line up to (+3.5).
As for the final leg of our teaser, take the UConn Huskies (+16) against Army. The Huskies pulled off arguably the biggest upset in all of college football last week when they took down Liberty, and don't be surprised if they upset Army this week. We're not surprised Army is favored, but by 10 points? Gosh darn, that's a lot of points.
Best of all, UConn is 9-2 against the spread, and is bowl eligible after winning its third straight game last week. We haven't included a pair of independent teams in our teaser, but going with the Huskies is worth it. UConn put up 36 points last week against a solid Liberty defense, and even though Army relies on its strong defense and rushing attack, a close contest is pretty much a guarantee.
The Black Knights have played in back-to-back one-score games, and their commitment to controlling the clock only increases the chances of this game being tight. With less offensive possessions for both teams, the less points we'll see too, which means both teams will have a harder time pulling away in this one.
And with the odds line up to +125, this teaser is too good to pass up. There's a strong chance both these teams win outright, let alone cover their respective underdog spread lines via the teaser. Just like we said last week, betting big on this teaser is worth it!
