Here are our picks against the spread for College Football Week Seven for some of the prominent games taking place around the nation Saturday.

Currently, we are 14-11 on the season in College Football Spread Predictions.

Here are our picks against the spread for four of the prominent games around the nation Saturday.

Georgia at LSU

Current Spread: LSU +7

Spread Prediction:

I know that home field advantage could play a factor in this game staying close for quite some time, but seven points seems a little close for this one.

LSU just got beat by Florida and I just don’t think the Tigers are very good. They have some physical athletes along the lines of scrimmage, but they don’t have the skill position players to match up with Georgia. I’m taking the Bulldogs minus the seven points.

Texas A&M at South Carolina

Current Spread: South Carolina +2.5

Spread Prediction:

Who knows what to make of this game?

To me, I just don’t think South Carolina has the offensive talent to match up with Texas A&M. The Gamecocks need to be able to run the ball and opponents haven’t been able to do that against the Aggies.

I’m taking Texas A&M minus the 2.5 on the road in Columbia.

Washington at Oregon

Current Spread: Oregon +3.5

Spread Prediction:

Most analysts tend to be leaning toward Washington to win this one close. But, I think Justin Herbert and that Oregon offense get the job done at home.

I’m taking Oregon to not only cover the spread, but to win the game outright.

Wisconsin at Michigan

Current Spread: Michigan -10

Spread Prediction:

Michigan is a 10-point favorite against Wisconsin at home. I know that people really like the Wolverines and think that they’re playing at a high level, but 10 points seems to be a little much.

Jonathan Taylor and Co. keep the game within 10 for sure and I wouldn’t be surprised at all to see the Badgers win.

So, to recap, we are taking:

  • Georgia -7 vs. LSU
  • Texas A&M -2.5 vs. South Carolina
  • Oregon +3.5 vs. Washington
  • Wisconsin +10 vs. Michigan
