In the latest episode of the Until Saturday podcast, journalists Ari Wasserman, David Ubben, and Max Olson analyzed the biggest games of Week 10 in college football. The trio discussed matchups such as Kansas State at Texas, Washington at USC, LSU at Alabama, and Missouri at Georgia, providing their insights and predictions against the spread.
The experts kicked off their discussion with the Kansas State versus Texas game, which they believed would have implications for the Big 12 championship game. Olson expressed concerns about Texas quarterback Maalik Murphy and his ability to handle the pressure of the game. Both analysts noted that Kansas State had a strong red zone defense, which could pose a problem for Texas. Despite Texas having a good defense, Olson leaned towards Kansas State, while Wasserman chose to lay the four points on Texas.
The conversation then shifted to the Washington versus USC game, with Wasserman expressing his disbelief that USC could potentially win despite their poor performance and dysfunctional team. Ubben highlighted the uncertainty surrounding Washington and whether they were affected by their recent losses. While the spread favored Washington by three points, the experts noted that it was challenging to make a clear prediction. Ultimately, Wasserman and Olson both decided to take the points with USC.
Finally, the experts analyzed the Missouri versus Georgia game. Wasserman confidently labeled this matchup as his lock of the week, emphasizing the clear difference in talent between the two teams. Despite Missouri’s potential to score points, Ubben emphasized that the game ultimately relied on Georgia’s performance. If Georgia played to their potential, they could secure the victory and potentially cover the spread. Wasserman predicted an early dominant lead for Georgia, while Ubben mentioned that Missouri had the freedom to play without pressure.
