UCLA (CFB-384) MONEYLINE + Clemson (CFB-386) MONEYLINE

I've got two lopsided class mismatches in one ticket tonight, because two prices this heavy only make sense once you combine them into something reasonable. UCLA opened its season with a 45-24 win on the road at Cal, the first real sign that new head coach Bob Chesney's system can move the ball against legitimate competition, and now the Bruins get their first game at home all year. San Diego State piled up its own numbers against an FCS opponent to open the season, but the Aztecs are stepping up several levels in class tonight, and I don't see them keeping pace with a UCLA team that's already shown it can hang with a Power Four defense on the road. Clemson took a rough one to open its year, an ugly loss at LSU that left the Tigers still sorting out the quarterback job between Christopher Vizzina and Tait Reynolds, with Dabo Swinney yet to settle on one. None of that matters tonight. Georgia Southern needed an FCS opponent just to get its own season started, and the gap between a Sun Belt team and a Power Four program at home is wide no matter who's taking snaps for Clemson. The Tigers get to clean up what went wrong at LSU against an opponent with nowhere near the horses to make them pay for it. Combine UCLA at -456 and Clemson at -900 into a two-team parlay at -282, and you're risking a little to bank two favorites that should both be standing at the final whistle tonight.
