Thomas Casale has locked in his top three college football picks for Week 8 and his CFB parlay could pay out around +600

The Indiana Hoosiers are a perfect 6-0 and they're up to No. 16 in the AP Top 25 with an average margin of victory of 32.7 points per game. On Saturday, the Hoosiers will look to keep the vibes high during Curt Cignetti's first season in a matchup against Nebraska. The Cornhuskers are 5-1 in Matt Rhule's second season at the helm and this could be a proving ground for both teams as they try to establish themselves as serious contenders in the Big Ten.

Indiana is favored by 6.5 in the lastest Week 8 college football odds via SportsLine consensus and is 5-1 against the spread this season, while Nebraska is 4-1-1 against the number. Is there a confident play to be made on either side, and what other Week 8 college football lines can you take advantage of?

Top Week 8 college football expert predictions

One of Casale's top Week 8 college football picks: He is backing Cincinnati at -4.5 against Arizona State in a noon ET kickoff on Saturday. This is Arizona State's first year in the Big 12 and the Sun Devils will find themselves in an unusual situation here with a trip to the East Coast that might feel like a morning kickoff.

Arizona State is 5-1 but hasn't looked great in two road games this season, losing to Texas Tech and only winning by three against Texas State. Meanwhile, Cincinnati nearly beat undefeated Pitt (28-27) and blew out Houston (34-0) in its only two home games against FBS opponents this season.

Quarterback Brendan Sorsby is averaging 287 passing yards per game and has accounted for 17 total touchdowns (13 passing and four rushing) with only three interceptions this season. Kenny Dillingham's ASU squad is improved but has probably played above its station thus far and this could be where they come back to reality a bit. See what other picks Casale likes at SportsLine.
