Big Ten conference play gets rolling with a key matchup this week between the Illinois Fighting Illini and the Indiana Hoosiers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pregame narrative:<\/strong> No. 19 Indiana hasn’t proven anything yet, but it’s a home favourite vs. No. 9 Illinois. The Fighting Illini are off to a commanding start and have been a stellar ATS team since the beginning of last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out my college football parlay predictions for Week 4, featuring a prop bet on Miami Hurricanes quarterback Carson Beck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

College football predictions: Week 4 parlay<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Parlay: <\/b>Beck over 1.5 pass TDs | Illinois +8.5 | South Alabama -12.5 (+260)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beck over 1.5 passing touchdowns (-225):<\/strong> Life is good for Beck down in Miami, where the highly-touted transfer has his Hurricanes off to a 3-0 start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beck has thrown for 812 yards and seven touchdowns through three games. He leads the Atlantic Coast Conference in yards per attempt (9.9), completion percentage (79.3%) and passer rating (185.7).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The former Georgia QB is 3-0 against this prop and draws a defence this week that he should be able to air it out against.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beck faces the Florida Gators, who rank third in defensive EPA per rush and 69th in EPA per pass, according to Game On Paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Expect Beck to cash this milestone for a fourth straight game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NCAAF parlay picks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Illinois +8 <\/strong>(-175):<\/strong> Indiana haters criticized the team’s toothless non-conference schedule last season, and the Hoosiers followed it up with another trio of cupcakes this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Hoosiers were favoured by more than a touchdown in all three games, covering the spread in two of them. Now, IU faces a much<\/em> tougher task with No. 9 Illinois in town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How often can you back a top-10 team at a price\/spread like this? Illinois is looking to prove last year’s 10-win campaign wasn’t a fluke, and this is a great opportunity to do that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luke Altmyer is back under centre and is off to a crisp start. He threw for 296 yards and three TDs in a 45-19 win at Duke two weeks ago (will Illinois as a -2.5 favourite).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the start of last year, Illinois is 12-3-1 ATS (second-best mark in NCAA Division I).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

South Alabama -12.5 <\/strong>(-167):<\/strong> The Coastal Carolina Chanticleers have gained praise this season for providing free concessions at home games. But on the field, there aren’t a lot of nice things to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coastal is 1-2 SU and 0-3 ATS, with its lone win coming against Charleston Southern (FCS). The Chanticleers have scored just 20 total points so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The South Alabama Jaguars, meanwhile, put up respectable efforts the past two weeks to cover hefty spreads against stiff competition:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Sept. 6:<\/strong> 33-31 loss vs. Tulane (13-point underdog)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Sept. 13:<\/strong> 31-15 loss at Auburn (25.5-point underdog)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      South Alabama quarterback Bishop Davenport paces Conference USA in completion percentage (73.4%) and passer rating (175.7).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      The Jags have proven they can move the ball, ranking 24th in offensive EPA per play and 64th in success rate so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      As for the Chanticleers, their offence is 131st in both EPA per play and success rate. I just don’t think the visitors will keep up on Saturday night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
