Top Week 4 college football expert predictions
One of Casale’s top Week 4 college football picks: He is backing LSU (-22.5) to cover against UCLA on Saturday at 3:30 p.m. ET. The DeShaun Foster era is off to a tough start at UCLA as the Bruins barely beat Hawaii in Week 1 and then got blown out by Indiana at home, 42-13, in Week 3. The Bruins didn’t come close to covering in either matchup.
LSU is 0-3 against the spread, but the Tigers have faced two tough opponents thus far in USC and South Carolina and they’ve split those games straight up. Casale views this matchup as just what LSU needs after those challenging matchups. “UCLA is just what the doctor ordered,” he told SportsLine. “The Bruins gave up 430 total yards and 6.9 yards per play last week to Indiana. Garrett Nussmeier and the LSU offense hasn’t broken out quite yet, though I expect that to change on Saturday.” See what other picks Casale likes at SportsLine.
