Great offense meets terrible defense
Sometimes, it’s as simple as this headline when picking against the spread. The Gamecocks have scored at least 34 points in back-to-back games, while the Aggies have allowed at least 30 points in four consecutive games. The Aggies currently rank 124th of 134 in scoring defense.
Last week, the Aggies played the 129th-ranked scoring defense, and they scored 40 points. However, they also allowed 50 points in that game. Even if they score in this game, they won’t be able to stop the Gamecocks at all.
Gamecocks’ defense secures spread
The Gamecocks have allowed 37 or more points in three of their five games this season. The good news for them is that the Aggies’ offense is more similar to their last two opponents. The Gamecocks have allowed just 31 total points in their last two games.
This spread is going to continue to increase as kickoff approaches. Three of the four major sportsbooks already have it at 20.5. Get in before this moves to 21, but even if you miss that window, you can still feel confident taking the Gamecocks all the way up to 24 points.
Best odds: -110 via DraftKings | Implied probability: 52.38%

Tyler Huff Over 89.5 rushing yards (-115) ⭐⭐⭐⭐
Huff exploded for 176 rushing yards last week against the Kennesaw State Owls. He averaged 11.7 yards per carry and ended the game with three touchdowns. He gets to follow up that performance with a matchup against the second-worst rush defense in college football.
Huff has run for at least 77 yards in four of his five games this season. He’s topped 100 yards twice. The Aggies are allowing 277.3 rushing yards per game this season. While most of that yardage has been given up to running backs, Huff leads the Gamecocks in rushing this season. He’s averaging 7.1 yards per carry on the year, and that average should increase this week.
The only sportsbook offering this total right now is bet365. The number is more than favorable, so get in quickly. However, you should still watch other sportsbooks if they come in with an even lower number.
Best odds: -115 via bet365 | Implied probability: 53.49%
