After a Week 1 schedule that offered plenty of high-profile primetime college football games, Week 2 was a bit of a letdown.

But don’t worry, Week 3 includes a massive Auburn vs. Penn State matchup at 7:30 p.m. ET on Saturday that will attract plenty of fans, and for the purpose of this article, bettors.

Interestingly, bettors overall seem pretty split on the right side of this matchup.

At the time of writing, 52% of spread tickets are backing Penn State, suggesting balanced action thus far.

However, after digging into the data, it’s clear that sharps — bettors with the respect and resources to move the market — are lining up on one side of Saturday night’s massive Auburn vs. Penn State matchup.

Auburn vs. Penn State Sharp Betting Pick


Line movement can be both simple and complicated, and when it comes to Auburn vs. Penn State the beauty is in the simplicity.

The Tigers opened as 7.5-point road underdogs at most shops across the market, and as I mentioned above, spread betting is split pretty evenly.

However, this spread has crashed through 7 and 6 (both very important numbers for college football spread betting) down to a consensus of +5 behind of flood of smart money from respected bettors.

Action Labs’ Bet Signals are reporting the first wave hitting Auburn +7.5 with a second at +6 a few days later, leaving little doubt as to why this number has moved 2.5 points.
