College Football Odds, Lines & Picks: 5 Best Bets of Week 9

No. 4 UCF +27 Against Cincinnati


Records: UCF 0-8, Cincinnati 4-3


Last Week: UCF lost 59-10 to Houston, Cincinnati defeated UConn 37-13


Take the Points: UCF has looked uninspired throughout the season. Longtime coach George O'Leary retired and interim coach Danny Barrett will take over. Any time an underperforming team has a coaching change, it is good for at least a temporary uptick in play. We have seen this at USC and South Carolina. It is unlikely UCF challenges Cincinnati to win this game, but they will lose by less than 27 points as the coaching change provides some inspiration.
