College Football Same Game Parlay Picks: Week 7

(Odds courtesy of FanDuel Sportsbook)

#8 Oregon Ducks at #7 Washington Huskies

  • Leg 1: Over 67.5 (-105)
  • Leg 2: Michael Penix Jr. Over 349.5 Passing Yards (-114)
  • Leg 3: Bo Nix Over 20.5 Rushing Yards (-114)

This will be the game to watch, with two of the most explosive offenses in the country battling in what could determine which team goes to the Pac-12 Championship. It also features two marquee quarterbacks, Bo Nix and Michael Penix Jr., who are top five in passer efficiency and Heisman odds. It feels like with these two teams, the total should be more than 70, especially with the 71 total points from last season. With it being at 67, take the over.

Penix Jr. will get over 2,000 and could become the nation's passing leader after this game. 349 passing yards is a big number, but Penix has gone over this in four of five games and hit the 400 mark in last year's matchup against Oregon.

We've seen Bo Nix the passer more than the runner this year. He's only eclipsed six rushing attempts once in five games, by his fifth game last year, he had done it four times. In a matchup where every yard could matter against an offense of their equal, we should see Nix use his legs more than he has.

Parlay Total: +588

Syracuse Orange at #4 Florida State Seminoles

  • Leg 1: Syracuse +17.5 (-110)
  • Leg 2: LeQunit Allen Over 56.5 Rushing Yards (-114)
  • Leg 3: Jordan Travis Over 242.5 Passing Yards (-114)

Syracuse started the season off well, going 4-0, but they've been demolished by Clemson and North Carolina, losing by a combined 71-21. Florida State is currently bound for the CFB Playoff, but they've had a couple of close calls by going to overtime against an unranked Clemson and almost blowing a two-possession lead against Boston College. FSU is excellent in many aspects, but they're having trouble stopping the run and are 76th in rushing yards allowed per game, along with eight rushing touchdowns. This is why Cuse should stay competitive in this game and cover.

LeQuint Allen has taken over the backfield for the Orange after being behind Sean Tucker last year. He's been an adequate replacement with 4.6 yards per carry and seven rushing touchdowns. The ground game is how Syracuse will have a chance at an upset, so Allen will see plenty of carries.

Jordan Travis is fifth in Heisman odds on most sportsbooks. He's having a great season as he is one of four quarterbacks in the FBS (Caleb Williams, Bo Nix, Kyle McCord) to have a 158 or better passer efficiency rating and only one interception. This is an excellent matchup for him against Syracuse, that's 83rd in passing yards allowed per game.

Parlay Total: +573

#25 Miami Hurricanes at #12 North Carolina Tar Heels

  • Leg 1: Miami +3.5 (-120)
  • Leg 2: Omarion Hampton Under 58.5 Rushing Yards (-114)
  • Leg 3: Tyler Van Dyke Over 252.5 Passing Yards (-114)

Miami had a whole week to reflect on a horrible loss where they ran the ball instead of kneeling, Georgia Tech forced a fumble, then scored a last-second touchdown. They want to get revenge on UNC, who've not had a good record against recently. This is a much better team than last year; Tyler Van Dyke is having a resurged under new OC Shannon Dawson, and the defense has improved massively against the pass and the run, which they are allowing the fewest rushing yards per game in the nation.

Miami's rushing defense could be problematic for North Carolina’s offensive game plan. This season, we’re not seeing the passing numbers from Drake Maye that we're accustomed to because they've become more of a run team, going from 47% run plays last year to 52%. This is with Omarion Hampton as the lead back, and the true sophomore already tied his season-high from last year. We won't see him get to this total against that defensive front.

North Carolina has been able to play well on defense, but this will be their first power five opponent in the top 50 in points scored. Tyler Van Dyke is looking more like the guy who came on mid-way through 2021 and helped the Canes win five of their final six games. Van Dyke had his best performance last year against the Tar Heels going for 496 passing yards and three touchdowns.

Parlay Total: +546
