"Stanford Steve" Coughlin and Chris "The Bear" Fallica preview Week 10 of the 2022 college football season as only they can, offering their top bets, nuggets and totals worth wagering on.

Odds and lines are from Caesars Sportsbook unless otherwise noted.

Records:
The Bear (Last week: 4-2. Season: 33-16-1)
Stanford Steve (Last week: 1-2. Season: 19-18-1)


The plays

No. 24 Texas Longhorns (-2.5, 54.5) at No. 13 Kansas State Wildcats

The Bear: In addition to Adrian Martinez, K-State also has worry at the LB position with Daniel Green. Not having him would be a concern against Bijan Robinson and the Longhorns running game. Texas could easily be undefeated right now (where have we heard that before), but the week off since the collapse at Oklahoma State likely did them a lot of good. And if people use the "K-State just blew out Oklahoma State and Texas just lost to them" logic and we get a better number as a result, even better.
