Gambling911.com takes a look at some of this weekend's college football overlays and underlays as well as line movements and recent trends for Friday night's games.  We also have some prop bets below.

SDSU vs. Boise State

Both teams are 2-2 Straight Up and Boise State is yet to cover the spread, so we'll want to pay special attention to them.  The Aztecs have one cover thus far.

With the power ratings we get a number of 6.99.  The line has been on the money since Monday at Boise State -6.5 after opening at -4.5.

We have a good comparable here with the Middle Tennessee vs. James Madison that also had a line that went from +4.5 to +6.5 and ended up on the money. 

San Diego State did win last year's game by three points at home as a +3 dog and the year prior as a +13.5 dog, something that would mostly prevent us from pulling the trigger on the Broncos at -6.5.

Still, this one is mildly attactive lean on Boise State at that number.

Washington vs. UCLA

The line on this game has shifted between the Huskies -2.5, -3 and -3.5 with no actual movement per se.  We are getting a number of Washington 6.53, suggesting a 3 to 4 point underlay on this line.

The favorite has won in all four games we have monitored this season whereby the line has crossed the number 3 in both directions (2.5 and 3.5). 

While UCLA beat Washington on the road last season as a +1.5 underdog, the Huskies won the two previous years.  Do keep in mind that last year's Washington team went 4-8.  They've already won that many games heading into Week 5 of this season.

Both these teams come into Friday night's game with 4-0 records. Washington has covered their first four. UCLA is 2-2 Against The Spread.

Both teams also rank within the top 25 in both total offense and defense.  The Washington receivers might be what gives the Huskies an edge here. The UCLA secondary has struggled.

All the math and line analysis suggests Washington covers.  It's difficult though for a team to go 5-0 Against The Spread.
