TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – The fifth week of the college football season is upon us and with it brings many prop bets worth wagering on.

Alabama Vs. Ole Miss: First Half Total OVER 41.0

The game between the Alabama Crimson Tide and Ole Miss Rebels will be one of the most-watched over the weekend. The two Heisman favorites, Matt Corral and Bryce Young will play against one another, which is likely the reasoning behind online sportsbooks giving the first-half total such a high line.

Alabama Vs. Ole Miss First Half Total

  • OVER 41.0 -115
  • UNDER 41.0 -115

These two teams are the highest-scoring first-half teams and the only two to average 30+ points per first half. The combined average scoring total between the two is 63 points.

There’s a fair argument to be made that Ole Miss will see a reduction in scoring as this is the first real defense they’ll face on their schedule, but Alabama has already played two ranked teams and shouldn’t see much regression whatsoever.

Georgia Tech Vs. Pittsburgh: Georgia Tech First Quarter Team Total

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are just one of eight teams in the NCAA to not have any first-quarter points against FBS opponents and the only Power 5 team to do so. College football betting sites seem to expect that to change this week, but could ultimately be wrong.

Georgia Tech First-Quarter Team Total

  • OVER 6.5 -115
  • UNDER 6.5 -115

The Georgia Tech offense is mediocre by ACC standards and averages more rushing yards than passing. However, the Pittsburgh Panthers’ defense is the fourth-best rushing defense in the conference and should be able to limit their effectiveness.

Memphis Tigers Vs. Temple Owls: First Quarter Total

The Memphis Tigers and Temple Owls are set to face one another on Saturday in a game where sports betting sites may have simply overlooked the first-quarter total.

Memphis Vs. Temple First Quarter Total

  • OVER 13.5 -110
  • UNDER 13.5 -120

Memphis themselves average 16.0 points per first quarter against FBS opponents. To make things better, Temple allows 13.3 points per first quarter which is tied for fifth-worst in the NCAA. Between the two, it seems as if the Tigers have a real chance of hitting this mark themselves and anything added from Temple would just make it that much easier to win the wager.
