After crunching college football Week 2 spreads, PRO Systems released three undervalued teams to cover Saturday.
Here’s the skinny for this weekend from a betting perspective.
Using a backtested trend, our college football database shows three spreads Saturday in Week 2 that have historically been good bets: Michigan State vs. Maryland, South Carolina vs. Kentucky and Temple vs. Navy.
Some of our premium PRO Systems involve a bunch of factors, and can oftentimes be intricate. The PRO System that highlighted the three college football spreads for Saturday Week 2, meanwhile, is really simple.
Taking into account Saturday’s Week 2 spreads, where the over/unders are and a couple of more key factors, history shows three teams fit a system that’s picked the right teams to cover 59% of the time in the past.
College Football Week 2 Spreads: Undervalued Teams to Cover Saturday
It’s the first three matches of the season from our conference-only PRO System.
Also, I understand the three games we’re covering today are random, but that’s the best part. PRO Systems are unbiased; the lone mission of our college football models is to reveal lines that have usually been inefficient.
In Week 2, it’s all about the visitors.
The “Road Dog, Low Totals PRO System” advocates for betting on road underdogs in conference games when they’re favored by +7 or more and the total points expected are 48 or fewer.
Games projected to be low-scoring usually favor underdogs familiar with their opponents, and have covered 59% since we began tracking.

At the time of writing, these three sides check the boxes for college football Week 1.

Michigan State barely escaped Florida Atlantic as a two-score favorite last week. If you’re thinking about jumping ship, consider backing the Spartans in Week 2 — they’re perfectly aligned for the PRO System: Conference game, big ‘dog, low total.

South Carolina is another program that struggled as large chalk in Week 1. However, teams like the Gamecocks typically fare well in spots such as Week 2 vs. Kentucky.

Temple vs. Navy Odds, Pick

It’s a suggested bet on Temple — something that will rarely be heard among the consensus this season.
