My CFB parlay for Week 2 combines the moneylines for Texas, Texas Tech and Arizona State. If we play them together at Bet365, we can get +300 odds (*will vary slightly depending on book.)

Texas vs Michigan

I am beginning my Week 2 college football parlay with a play on Texas to defeat Michigan on the road this Saturday. This is the heaviest juice of my CFB parlay, but I think the Longhorns are still undervalued due to Michigan bias following their national title.

The Longhorns looked dominant in their 52-0 season-opening rout of Colorado State. Heisman candidate QB Quinn Ewers, in particular, looked super sharp, throwing for 260 yards and 3 TDs in just over a half of action.

Ewers has an arsenal of talented receivers to attack a Michigan secondary that showed vulnerabilities in surrendering 292 passing yards to Fresno State in Week 1.

Michigan’s offense, meanwhile, stuttered in their opener. New starting QB Davis Warren completed just 15 of 25 passes for 118 yards. The usually dominant Wolverines run game also struggled, averaging only 3.4 yards per carry. Texas’ swarming defense, which suffocated CSU, should exploit the same weaknesses.

Texas has thrived as a road favorite under head coach Steve Sarkisian, going 7-3 straight up in that spot. With a lethal offense led by Ewers and a stifling defense, I expect the Longhorns to continue that trend with a comfortable win in Ann Arbor.

Texas Tech vs Washington State

Another addition to my Week 2 college football parlay is the Texas Tech Red Raiders moneyline at +105 odds against the Washington State Cougars. This is the lone underdog on my parlay card, but it helps us achieve nice value on this parlay.

The Red Raiders nearly suffered an upset in Week 1, barely escaping with a 52-51 OT win against FCS opponent Abilene Christian. However, their offense was explosive, racking up 539 yards. QB Behren Morton threw for 378 yards and 5 TDs, while RB Tahj Brooks added 153 yards and a score on the ground.

Washington State cruised to a 70-30 win over Portland State, but their defense allowed nearly 450 yards to an FCS team. Texas Tech’s high-octane offense should have success against a vulnerable Cougars defense that surrendered 292 passing yards to Portland State.

Moreover, the spread on this game has shifted from Texas Tech +2.5 to +1.5, indicating sharp money coming in on the Red Raiders. I expect TTU’s aerial attack led by Morton and receivers like Josh Kelly and Coy Eakin, to exploit a miserable WSU secondary that surrendered 292 passing yards to Portland State.

The Red Raiders are also 4-1 straight up in their last five games as a road underdog. With an offense firing on all cylinders and a suspect Cougars defense, I’m backing Texas Tech to secure the outright upset victory in a high-scoring affair.

  • Pick: Texas Tech ML (+105)

Arizona State vs Mississippi  State

Concluding my Week 2 college football parlay is the Arizona State moneyline against Mississippi State in one of the late games.

While both teams won big in Week 1, Arizona State’s 48-7 demolition of Wyoming was far more impressive than Mississippi State’s 56-7 victory over FCS foe Eastern Kentucky.

The Sun Devils looked dominant on both sides of the ball. MSU transfer QB Sam Leavitt threw for 258 yards and two TDs on just 14 completions, while the ASU defense held Wyoming under 100 total yards until the fourth quarter. RB Cameron Skattebo also rushed for 49 yards and a score on 11 carries (4.5 ypc).

On the flip side, while Mississippi State put up gaudy numbers, it came against a much lower level of competition. QB Blake Shapen threw for 247 yards and 3 TDs, but the Bulldogs are just 1-7 ATS in their last eight games as a betting underdog. They also lack experienced veterans on defense.

ASU has never been a moneyline favorite of -220 or shorter under second-year head coach Kenny Dillingham. However, the Sun Devils upset UCLA last year and played other Pac-12 foes close. The Sun Devils have bolstered their defense, especially the secondary, with numerous high-upside transfers.

Give me Arizona on the moneyline for my CFB parlay, as I think they are being undervalued against a bottom-tier SEC opponent.

  • Pick: Arizona State ML (-220)
