Week 1 - Free College Football Picks

Louisiana Lafayette vs. Texas

It's been a lean decade for the Longhorns who have hit the reset button again with Steve Sarkisian taking the reigns for the first time as head coach of the program. They'll have a tough time of it on their home turf against the Louisiana Lafayette team that went 10-1 in their games last season. 

With a lot of squad turnover, things will take time to gel for the men from Austin.‍

Texas Tech vs. Houston

The vibes are strong in Texas with Red Raiders coach Matt Wells remarking this preseason as the teams best while he has been at the helm. They'll take the trip to NRG Stadium to play Houston in a game that the 'books have just about even. With a settled team who have been together for a couple of years now, and having added Tyler Shough as QB who has made the offseason move from Oregon, we've got Texas Tech setting the tone for the season with a good performance.‍

LSU vs. UCLA

The Tigers came thudding back down to earth last season after claiming the national title in 2019, going 5-5 in the season with notable bad losses. UCLA were dominant in their Week 0 win over Hawaii and will be looking to keep that rolling against a defense that finished dead last in the nation defending the pass last year.‍‍
