Top college football predictions for Week 7
One of the top college football picks Marshall is recommending for Week 7: He’s backing No. 14 Missouri (+3.5) to cover against No. 18 Alabama in a noon ET start on Saturday. He also likes the Over (52.5) in this SEC clash.
Since losing to Florida State in the opener, Alabama has rolled to four wins and four covers. Missouri, however, is unbeaten on the season, and Marshall has identified some key betting trends that point to Mizzou being in a good spot to at least keep this one within the number.
“Alabama romped in this one 34-0 last October, but that was at Tuscaloosa,” Marshall told SportsLine. “The Tide are just 2-5 both straight up and spread in their last seven away from Bryant-Denny Stadium. The Tigers are on an 8-2 spread surge since last year’s loss (that includes just missing as 44.5 vs UMass), and 7-4 as underdogs since 2023. Mizzou is also on an 8-2 over run since late 2024, and the Bama game last October.” Go to SportsLine to see all of Marshall’s picks.
