2024 College Football Odds for Week 14

Texas vs. Texas A&M Odds

• Opening point spread: Texas -6
• Opening moneyline: Texas -225/Texas A&M +185
• Opening total: Over/Under 48.5 points scored
• Time: 7:30 p.m. ET Saturday (ABC)

UPDATE 6:15 P.M. ET SATURDAY: With 75 minutes until kickoff, Texas is down to 4.5-point chalk in The SuperBook's college football Week 14 odds. The Longhorns opened -5 and got to -6 multiple times early in the week.

The line was Texas -5.5 before two moves this morning, to -5/-4.5.

"There are more tickets and money on A&M spread. As it stands right now, we need a Texas win and cover," SuperBook risk manager Casey Degnon said.

The Aggies are also seeing more moneyline tickets to pull the upset. But the Longhorns are drawing more moneyline cash.

The total opened at 48.5, peaked at 50.5 Thursday and is now 49.

"The total is split, ticket-wise, with more money on the Under. And we actually have respected money on Over 49 and Under 50," Degnon said.

UPDATE 9 P.M. ET WEDNESDAY: Texas landed on ESPNBET's Week 14 college football odds board as 5.5-point road chalk. Tonight, the Longhorns sit at -5.

It's interesting point-spread play so far, with ticket count 2/1 on Texas and money 2/1 on Texas A&M. The moneyline is intriguing, as well, with 74% of tickets on the Longhorns/57% of cash on the Aggies.

The total opened and is currently 48.5, with 91% of tickets/78% of money on the Over.

UPDATE 5 P.M. ET MONDAY: Texas (10-1 SU/6-5 ATS) has a hobbled QB in Quinn Ewers (ankle) heading into a massive game against longtime archrival Texas A&M. These two teams haven't met since 2011, before A&M left the Big 12 to join the SEC.

Now, Texas is in its first year in the SEC, reviving the rivalry in the process. It will be the 98th meeting between these two teams.

The Longhorns have won four in a row since their 30-15 home loss to Georgia. In Week 13, Texas beat Kentucky 31-14, just short of covering as 18.5-point home chalk.

Texas A&M (8-3 SU/3-8 ATS) did extensive damage to its CFP hopes by taking its third loss of the season. The Aggies were 2.5-point favorites at Auburn and lost 43-41 in quadruple overtime.

Here's our Fanatics Sportsbook promo code for Texas vs Texas A&M!

"We have already seen this spread move from Texas -6 to -5.5 and back to -6. We took some early A&M money at +6, and I expect this to probably toggle back-and-forth for a few days," Borgata Sportsbook director Tom Gable said. "This game, which already means a lot to those in the state of Texas, will have bigger repercussions when it comes to the SEC this year.

"I expect this game to draw the most handle of any on the board on Saturday. This should be good two-way action throughout the week."

And that's why it's back at the Texas -6 opener in college football Week 14 odds.

Auburn vs. Alabama Odds

• Opening point spread: Alabama -11.5
• Opening moneyline: Alabama -450/Auburn +325
• Opening total: Over/Under 51.5 points scored
• Time: 3:30 p.m. ET Saturday (ABC)

UPDATE 3 P.M. ET SATURDAY: Alabama was -11.5 at DraftKings Sportsbook on Sunday and topped out at -12.5 briefly on Friday. Then the line backed up to 'Bama -10.5 a couple times, and it's now -11.

Point-spread play is two-way with a lean toward underdog Auburn, at 53% of bets/62% of money.

The total opened at 51.5, peaked at 52.5 Tuesday and bottomed out at 51 earlier today. The Over is seeing 65% of bets/67% of money.

UPDATE 12:30 P.M. ET FRIDAY: The Crimson Tide are 11.5-point home favorites in ESPNBET's college football odds Week 14 market. That matches the opening number.

It's two-way spread play at this point, with 52% of tickets on Auburn and 52% of money on Alabama.

ESPNBET opened the total at 52.5, and that's where it sits this afternoon, with the Under at -115. Still, early bettors are expecting points, with 73% of tickets/81% of money on the Over.

UPDATE 5 P.M. ET MONDAY: Alabama (8-3 SU/6-5 ATS) did itself significant Week 13 harm in the CFP chase. The Crimson Tide went to Oklahoma as 14-point favorites and got waxed 24-3.

So the Tide can't mess around in the annual Iron Bowl vs. Auburn, which is 3-1 SU and ATS in its last four games. In Week 13, the Tigers (5-6 SU/6-5 ATS) severely hampered Texas A&M's CFP position with a 43-41 win in quadruple overtime, as 2.5-point home underdogs.

Alabama opened -11.5 in Borgata Sports' college football Week 14 odds, with no movement so far.

"Auburn comes into this game on a nice streak and with something to play for: with a win, the Tigers become bowl eligible," Borgata sportsbook director Tom Gable said. "Unfortunately for Alabama, there isn’t much outside of pride to play for, as its College Football Playoff hopes more than likely ended last Saturday with the loss to Oklahoma.

"I expect the underdog to be bet here and wouldn’t be surprised to see this spread come down closer to 10 through the week. I also expect the total to get slightly higher as well."

Notre Dame vs. USC Odds

• Opening point spread: Notre Dame -7
• Opening moneyline: Notre Dame -250/USC +200
• Opening total: Over/Under 51.5 points scored
• Time: 3:30 p.m. ET Saturday (CBS)

UPDATE 3 P.M. ET SATURDAY: Notre Dame toggled between -7/-7.5 multiple times this week in DraftKings Sportsbook's college football odds Week 14 market. As kickoff nears, it's Fighting Irish -7 (-105).

The Irish are drawing 78% of spread tickets/73% of spread dollars.

DK's total opened at 50.5, peaked at 53 Friday and is now 52.5. The Over is getting 76% of tickets/57% of money.

UPDATE 9 P.M. ET WEDNESDAY: ESPNBET has the Fighting Irish at -7.5 (-105) tonight, up from a -7 opener. Notre Dame is nabbing 88% of early spread bets/68% of early spread dollars.

The total climbed from 50.5 to 51.5, with 88% of tickets/94% of cash on the Over so far.

UPDATE 5 P.M. ET MONDAY: Notre Dame (10-1 SU/9-2 ATS) has been rolling since its shocking Week 2 home upset loss to Northern Illinois. In Week 13, the Fighting Irish routed a solid and ranked Army outfit 49-14 laying 14.5 points at Yankee stadium.

The Irish are on a 9-0 SU/8-1 ATS tear.

Much like Michigan, Southern Cal (6-5 SU/7-4 ATS) is having an un-USC-like season. But the Trojans won their last two and are on a 3-1 SU and ATS upswing. In Week 13, USC knocked off archrival UCLA 19-13 giving 5 points on the road.

Notre Dame has already moved from -7 to -7.5 in Borgata Sports' college football odds Week 14 market.

"The Irish continue to look strong after blowing out Army and moving up their seeding in the College Football Playoff," Borgata sportsbook director Tom Gable ssaid. "It’s been mostly early Irish money. I expect this to stay around 7.5, and we will probably end up needing USC.

"The public has been riding Notre Dame for quite a few weeks now."

Arizona State vs. Arizona Odds

• Opening point spread: Arizona State -8.5
• Opening moneyline: Arizona State -300/Arizona +260
• Opening total: Over/Under 52.5 points scored
• Time: 3:30 p.m. ET Saturday (FOX)

UPDATE 3 P.M. ET SATURDAY: The Sun Devils opened -8 in DraftKings' Week 14 college football odds and peaked at -9.5 twice during the week. However, as kickoff approaches, Arizona State is down to -7.5.

ASU is netting 68% of spread bets/56% of spread dollars.

The total opened at 53.5 and stuck there most of the week, and it's now at 54. It's all Over action, at 83% of bets/96% of cash.

UPDATE 12:30 P.M. ET FRIDAY: ESPNBET has Arizona State as 8.5-point road chalk, down a notch from the -9 opener. Early point-spread action is solidly on the Sun Devils, at 83% of tickets/72% of money.

The total opened and is currently 53.5, with 80% of tickets/59% of dollars on the Over.

UPDATE 5 P.M. ET MONDAY: Arizona State controls its own destiny to a spot in the Big 12 championship game. And a win there would net an automatic berth and bye in the 12-team CFP.

In Week 13, the Sun Devils (9-2 SU and ATS) topped BYU 28-23 as 3.5-point home favorites. ASU is on a four-game SU/ATS run and is 6-1 SU and ATS in its last seven.

On the flip side, Arizona enters this rivalry game on a 1-5 SU and ATS purge. The Wildcats (4-7 SU/2-9 ATS) lost to TCU 49-28 as 10.5-point road pups in Week 13.

"Arizona State benefited from all of the chaos last Saturday and their win against BYU, which was chaotic in its own way," Borgata Sportsbook director Tom Gable said. "There are four ranked teams in the Big 12 and up to seven that have a chance to make the conference title game.

"The Sun Devils will need to be careful in this spot, not to lose momentum."

Arizona State is stable at -8.5, but the total is up to 53.5 in Week 14 college football odds.

"We took early respected money on the opening total of 52.5," Gable said.

Michigan vs. Ohio State Odds

• Opening point spread: Ohio State -20.5
• Opening moneyline: Ohio State -2000/Michigan +1000
• Opening total: Over/Under 43.5 points scored
• Time: Noon ET Saturday (FOX)

UPDATE 10:45 A.M. ET SATURDAY: With 75 minutes until kickoff, Ohio State is -19.5 (-115) in BetMGM's college football odds week 14 market. The Buckeyes opened -20.5 and touched -21 Tuesday, then returned to -20.5 Wednesday and went to -19.5 Friday.

BetMGM saw sharp play on Michigan +21. And in digital betting (mobile/online), BetMGM is seeing more tickets on Michigan point spread than on any other team. But Ohio State is No. 1 in spread money.

Spread ticket count is almost dead even, with 51% of Michigan. Ohi State is taking 66% of spread money.

The total opened at 43.5 and is now 42.5 (Under -115). But it's all Over action, at 89% of tickets/87% of money. In fact, Michigan-Ohio State is the most-bet Over of the day.

UPDATE 9 P.M. ET WEDNESDAY: Midweek, ESPNBET has Ohio State laying 20 points in college football Week 14 odds. The line is on a downward trend, after opening Buckeyes -22.5 and sitting at -21 early this afternoon.

Ohio State is seeing 52% of early spread bets/65% of early spread money.

ESPNBET's total is down to 42.5 from a 44.5 opener. However, practically all the early tickets and dollars are on the Over.

UPDATE 5 P.M. ET MONDAY: Ohio State (10-1 SU/6-5 ATS) has won five in a row since its lone loss this season, at Oregon. In Week 13, the Buckeyes disposed of previously undefeated Indiana 38-15 as 10.5-point home favorites.

Defending national champion Michigan (6-5 SU/4-7 ATS) is having a very un-Michigan-like season. Still, in Week 13, the Wolverines boat-raced Northwestern 50-6 laying 10.5 points at home. That ended a 1-4 SU slide.

Borgata Sportsbook, a BetMGM property in Atlantic City, opened Ohio State -20.5 and went to -21, then shifted to -20.5 (-120)

"Probably with this spread, the rivalry game won’t have as much juice as it normally does," Borgata sportsbook director Tom Gable said. "But thus far, ticket count and handle has been fairly even.

"Giving Michigan three touchdowns should give bettors enough reason to take the 'dog here, even with not much to play for."

Tennessee vs. Vanderbilt Odds

• Opening point spread: Tennessee -11.5
• Opening moneyline: Tennessee -400/Vanderbilt +320
• Opening total: Over/Under 48.5 points scored
• Time: Noon ET Saturday (ABC)

UPDATE 10:45 A.M. ET SATURDAY: Tennessee is at -10.5 (even) in BetMGM's Week 14 college football odds. The Vols opened -11.5, fell to -11 Tuesday and went to 10.5 this morning.

Spread tickets and money are in the 2/1 range on Vanderbilt. On the moneyline, it's 2/1 tickets Vandy, but money is running dead even.

The total opened at 48.5 and is down to 46.5 this morning, with 57% of bets/68% of money on the Over.

UPDATE 12:30 P.M. ET FRIDAY: A day out from this SEC rivalry game, Tennessee is laying 11 points on ESPNBET's college football Week 14 odds board. That's down a tick from the Vols -11.5 opener.

Tennessee is drawing 62% of early spread bets. However, 66% of early spread cash is on Vanderbilt as a double-digit home underdog. The Commodores are 7-1 ATS as a 'dog this season.

The total opened at 47.5 and is now 48.5, with 78% of bets/72% of money on the Over.

UPDATE 5 P.M. ET MONDAY: Tennessee (9-2 SU/6-5 ATS) certainly got a boost from all the SEC chaos in Week 13, when Alabama, Ole Miss and Texas A&M lost. The Vols, meanwhile, were beating up on UTEP 56-0 to easily cover as massive 41.5-point home favorites.

The nonconference game was a get-right spot for Tennessee, which lost at Georgia 31-17 in Week 12.

Vanderbilt (6-5 SU/8-3 ATS) is having a season for the ages, relatively speaking, since the Nashville school is usually an SEC doormat. The pinnacle was a 40-35 Week 6 upset of Alabama as a hefty 23.5-point home underdog.

However, the Commodores lost three of their last four games. In Week 13 at LSU, Vandy was competitive but fell 24-17 getting 10 points.

Tennessee-Vandy opened at Vols -11.5 in Borgata Sports' college football odds Week 14 market. At the moment, the Vols are -11.5 (-105).

"Tennessee can control its own destiny by beating Vanderbilt, which should put the Vols into the College Football Playoff," Borgata sportsbook director Tom Gable said. "However, this may not exactly be the opponent they want to see in this spot.

"Vanderbilt is 7-1 ATS as an underdog this year, with outright wins against Virginia Tech, Alabama, Kentucky and Auburn."

But Gable noted the Commodores are in a little rut.

"Vanderbilt hasn’t played as well the last two weeks, losing to South Carolina and LSU," he said. "We will see if they are up for one more spoiler role here, and we have already seen some decent action come in on Vanderbilt for this game.

"I would expect the public to really back the Volunteers in this spot."
