- Ohio State, LSU. and Clemson All to Win (Boosted From -165) -145
But which ones are most likely to hit?
The most likely one to hit will be LSU/Clemson. The LSU Tigers are favored by a touchdown in the game, but it will not be shocking if they win by more than that. The Clemson Tigers have been bulldozing everyone, and this weekend should be no different.
Ohio State/LSU/Clemson will likely hit as well. But when it comes to parlays, the more game involved, the higher the risk—even when they are no-brainer games like these.
It is hard to imagine Georgia beating LSU. Yes, the Bulldogs defense is incredible. But the LSU offense and quarterback Joe Burrow have been unstoppable all year. Even if Georgia slows the LSU offense down, Jake Fromm has been struggling for weeks. The LSU defense is not one you want to see when you are having a hard time.
So, that would knock the Georgia/Ohio State one from the picture as well the Georgia/Oklahoma/Ohio State one. But, then again, with Ohio State and Oklahoma being heavy favorites, if you really think Georgia has a shot, the Georgia/Oklahoma/Ohio State option has a nice payout at +400.
However, what about Baylor and Memphis?
The Baylor Bears did give Oklahoma a good fight but totally fell apart in the second half. They never really did much on offense throughout the game, but they did take advantage of every mistake the Sooners made. Counting on another team to make mistakes is not much of a strategy.
Memphis is a heavy favorite against Cincinnati (nine points). When the two played a week ago, it was Memphis by ten, in the end, 34-24. But the Bearcats are no joke. They are going to give Memphis a heck of a fight once again.
So—how should you bet?
Pass on Baylor/Memphis, Georgia/Ohio State, and Georgia/Oklahoma/Ohio State. Ohio State/LSU/Clemson and LSU/Clemson are as close as you are ever going to get to a lock with a parlay.
Give Oklahoma/Cincinnati some serious thought. Three of the four touchdowns Memphis scored last week against Cincinnati came on big plays (29+ yards). They could happen again, but it would be foolish to count on it.
