Top Week 4 College Football Expert Predictions
One of Casale’s top Week 4 college football picks: He’s backing LSU (-24.5) against UCLA on Saturday. Chip Kelly led the Bruins to 25 wins over the past three seasons, but he made the shocking decision to leave the program to become the Ohio State offensive coordinator right when UCLA was about to make the jump to the Big Ten.
Speaking of DeShaun Foster, who rushed for 3,049 yards and 39 touchdowns in four years with the Bruins. Foster was a UCLA assistant from 2017-2023, but he hasn’t been able to move on from where Kelly left off. UCLA is averaging just 6.7 yards per pass attempt and 3.6 yards per rush this season and they’ll have trouble keeping up with LSU’s offense on Saturday.
“UCLA is one of the worst Power 4 teams in the country this season,” Casale told SportsLine. “The Bruins were lucky to beat Hawaii 16-13 and then Indiana beat them 42-13 at home. That score would have been even worse if Indiana hadn’t committed 14 penalties.” See what other picks Casale likes at SportsLine.
