The Six Pack: Florida State vs. NC State, TCU vs. Kansas among best Week 6 college football picks

The sun shines a little brighter and flowers smell a little sweeter when The Six Pack is back on the profitable side of the ledger, and that’s where we sit after a 4-2 performance last week. After struggling in our Games of the Week and Lock of the Week this season, we swept all three last week and continued to ride our beloved Kansas Jayhawks for our fourth win.

The Jayhawks are back this week but in unfamiliar territory. You know it’s been a crazy start to the season when one of the premier games of the weekend is in Lawrence, Kansas, between a ranked Kansas and a ranked TCU.

I don’t want to jinx anything, but I’m feeling good about this week’s slate, too. Some teams are still undervalued and a few are ripe to be plucked as the market is a little too high on them, and it’s time to buy back a bit. All odds courtesy of Caesars Sportsbook.

Games of the Week

No. 17 TCU at No. 19 Kansas: I’m in an awkward position here. I’ve been betting the Jayhawks every week, and they’ve been exceedingly good to me. Not only have they covered all five of their games, but they’ve won them, too. Unfortunately, I think the winning streak comes to an end for Kansas on Saturday. As good as the Jayhawks have been, TCU is the best, most complete team they’ve faced. I fear the Horned Frogs will be too much for them.

However, I do not believe the Horned Frogs will be so much that Kansas won’t cover the touchdown! The Jayhawks had their worst offensive performance of the season against Iowa State but still won the game with their defense. That’s an encouraging sign moving forward. Also, while TCU is the most complete team the Jayhawks have faced, it’s not particularly special on the defensive side and has given up plenty of explosive plays. That’s not good news for a team facing this Kansas offense. I expect a lot of points and neither team to pull too far away from the other. TCU 35, Kansas 31 | Kansas +7
