Here is a look at the key head-to-head trends surrounding this contest.
- Favorite is 5-0 ATS in their last 5 meetings.

- Buffaloes are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 meetings.
Colorado Buffaloes (3-1 SU, 3-1 ATS, 2-2 O/U)
- Buffaloes are 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games overall.
- Buffaloes are 8-3 ATS vs. a team with a winning record.
- Buffaloes are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 conference games.
- Buffaloes are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games as an underdog.
Colorado won its second consecutive game by squeaking past Georgia 29-27 on Saturday to cover the NCAAF betting line as a 4.5-point home underdog in the BetOnline Sportsbook.
The Buffaloes got three rushing touchdowns in the win while playing Over the set O/U total for the second time this season.

- Tigers are 2-5 ATS in their last 7 games as a favorite.

Missouri ran roughshod over Miami (Ohio) on September 25 and will be well-rested coming into this contest following a bye last week.
The Tigers got one passing TD and one on the ground from quarterback Blaine Gabbert while adding another four rushing touchdowns in the blowout win to cover the game’s sportsbook odds as a 19.5-point home favorite.
Prediction: This college football point spread make look a bit high for sportsbook betting buffs, but I’m here to say ‘don’t worry’ the Missouri Tigers are going to hand the Colorado Buffalos a resounding loss while covering the college gridiron spread in the BetOnline Football Sportsbook with just a bit of room to spare.
Missouri averages 15 points per game more than Colorado while simultaneously giving up almost 10 points per game less than their counterparts in this contest.
Colorado is 2-0 at home while the Buffs lost their only road contest of the season so far.
I also like the three, head-to-head trends that all point to a solid Missouri win and ATS cover.
First, the Favorite in this rivalry has gone 5-0 ATS in their last 5 five meetings while the Buffaloes have also managed to go 0-4 ATS in their last four meetings overall.
In addition to playing the Tigers to win and cover the spread, I also like the Over to cash in after going 4-1 in the last five meetings.
NCAAF Sportsbook Pick: Missouri -11.5 Points/Over 52 Total Points
