Top college football predictions for Week 6

One of the top Week 6 college football picks the model is recommending for best betting apps : Arkansas (+13.5, 50.5) keeps it within the double-digit spread at home against No. 15 Tennessee in a 4:15 p.m. ET matchup on Saturday. The Razorbacks have struggled thus far, but did show some signs of progress in Week 4 against Tulsa, winning 34-6 despite being just 7-point favorites in that one. The Vols are tough on defense, but have lacked explosiveness on offense, particularly in the passing game. The model projects a one-score win for Tennessee as the Razorbacks cover well over 60% of the time.

Another Week 6 prediction: Nebraska (+7.5, 52.5) covers at home against No. 7 Indiana in a noon ET kickoff on Saturday. Indiana is winning, but not dominating in quite the same way as the Hoosiers did during their national championship run last year. They are just 1-4 against the spread, including a tight win against Northwestern in Week 4. Nebraska, meanwhile, is 4-1 against the number this season as the Cornhuskers are coming off back to back Big Ten wins and covers. The model projects a 4-point game as Nebraska covers nearly 60% of the time. See which other picks the model likes here .
