TST Best Bets: September 26, 2026

On September 19, 2026, in Piscataway, New Jersey, the USC Trojans faced the Rutgers Scarlet Knights in a highly anticipated Big Ten matchup. The game took place at SHI Stadium, with the Trojans hoping to end Oregon's four-game winning streak and boost their own chances in the College Football Playoff race. Meanwhile, in Ann Arbor, No. 17 Iowa and No. 18 Michigan faced off in a fiercely contested game, both teams vying for a perfect record.
For your college football betting picks, TST Best Bets, offered by BetOnline.ag, has some recommendations. First, consider backing USC vs. Oregon with an over of 61.5 points. The Ducks have scored over 31 points in each of their games this season, while the Trojans have struggled defensively, allowing 35 points to Rutgers last week. With both teams aiming for high-scoring games, the over seems like a strong choice.
Next, consider Iowa +5.5 against Michigan. The Wolverines are known for their run-first strategy, but their efficiency in running the ball has been inconsistent in the past. This week's game against the Hawkeyes could be a better test for their run game, as Iowa is 4-0-1 against the spread in their last five games against ranked opponents. A close, one-score Michigan victory is likely, making Iowa the better pick to cover the spread.
