“Stanford Steve” Coughlin and Chris “The Bear” Fallica preview Week 2 of the 2022 college football season as only they can, offering their top bets, nuggets and totals worth wagering on.
Odds and lines are from Caesars Sportsbook unless otherwise noted.
Records:
The Bear (Last week: 3-1-1. Season: 4-1-1)
Stanford Steve (Last week: 2-3. Season: 2-3)
The plays
Appalachian State Mountaineers at No. 6 Texas A&M Aggies (-19, 54)
The Bear: The Aggies weren’t great last week, and this typically is a spot where I would fade a team with a big home game the following week, like A&M does with Miami. But Appalachian State’s near upset of North Carolina after appearing completely beaten likely has the Aggies’ attention. The Mountaineers probably won’t find the A&M defense as soft as UNC’s, and that could mean we get the blowout we were on the way to getting last week.
