Week 4 college football picks, predictions: My best bets for Week 4

The first three weeks of the college football season have already given us plenty to digest. We’ve seen upsets, breakout stars and a clearer picture of which teams are contenders versus pretenders. For bettors, the key is not just reacting to what happened, but projecting how matchups, injuries and coaching tendencies will shape the weeks ahead.

Week 4 brings another slate full of opportunities, and I’ve narrowed down a few best bets that I believe carry strong value. These aren’t just numbers pulled from the board, they’re grounded in what we’ve seen on the field, coaching decisions, and the storylines that don’t always get reflected in the market.

Let’s dive into three games that stand out for my best bets:

Temple at Georgia Tech (-23.5, 52.5)

Last week, Temple looked completely overmatched against Oklahoma. The Owls couldn’t move the ball, finishing with one of the ugliest offensive performances of the young season. Oklahoma brought relentless pressure — blitzing on nearly every down — and Temple simply had no answers.

So why go back to the well? It’s not about Temple suddenly figuring out how to score against elite defenses, it’s about the Owls’ ability to adjust. Offensive coordinator Tyler Walker has a track record of creating week-to-week adjustments, dating back to his time at Montana State, where he built one of the most efficient offenses in the FCS. Even if Temple isn’t putting up fireworks, I trust this staff to scheme better looks after what they just endured.

If the Yellow Jackets get up early, it makes sense for them to protect King and get valuable reps for their backups. That opens the door for late points and pushes this game…
