College football odds, picks, betting lines, predictions for Week 10, 2024: Proven model loves Duke, SMU

No. 1 Oregon confirmed its spot atop the polls with a 38-9 win over then-No. 20 Illinois last week, and it will try to remain unbeaten when it travels to Michigan (3:30 p.m. ET, CBS) on Saturday during the Week 10 college football schedule. The Ducks have won five of their last six games by at least 21 points, with their only close call coming in a win over then-No. 2 Ohio State. They are 14.5-point road favorites against Michigan in the Week 10 college football odds, despite being just 3-point favorites in the look-ahead lines earlier this season. Should you back the Ducks with your Week 10 college football bets?

The biggest game on the schedule this weekend will take place in University Park, where No. 3 Penn State is a 3.5-point home underdog against No. 4 Ohio State in a Big Ten showdown. The over/under in that game is 46.5, down a point from the opener. Other Week 10 college football spreads to monitor include No. 2 Georgia (-14.5) vs. Florida, No. 13 Indiana (-7.5) at Michigan State, and No. 11 Clemson (-10.5) vs. Louisville.

Top college football predictions for Week 10

One of the college picks the model is high on during Week 10: Duke (+20) easily stays within the spread at No. 5 Miami in a noon ET matchup on Saturday. Duke has only lost one game by double digits this season, which came in a 24-14 loss at Georgia Tech at the beginning of October. The Blue Devils bounced back with a win over Florida State before losing to then-No. 22 SMU in overtime last week.

They were 11.5-point underdogs against the Mustangs, but they had a chance to win the game on a 2-point conversion attempt on the final play. Miami has struggled as a heavy favorite over the past month, winning three straight games by seven points or less prior to its win over lifeless Florida State last week. The model has the Blue Devils staying within two scores on Saturday, and they are covering in well over 60% of simulations. See the rest of its Week 10 college football picks here.

Another prediction: No. 20 SMU (-7.5) extends its five-game winning streak against No. 18 Pittsburgh in an 8 p.m. ET kickoff on Saturday. The Mustangs are returning home following a successful three-game road trip that included wins over then-No. 22 Louisville, Stanford and Duke. Their only loss this season came in an 18-15 thriller against BYU in early September, but the Cougars are currently a top-10 team with an 8-0 record.

The Mustangs are averaging 443.5 yards and 39.1 points per game, led by sophomore quarterback Kevin Jennings. He has completed 64.3% of his passes for 1,594 yards and 10 touchdowns while rushing for 321 yards and three scores. The model has Jennings finishing with more than 300 total yards and nearly three touchdowns on Saturday, helping his team cover the spread over 60% of the time.
