Hello, Thursday night football doubleheader!

No, I'm not talking about two NFL Thursday Night Football matchups, but there is one game on tonight's college football odds board — Syracuse vs. South Florida in the 2023 Boca Raton Bowl — to complement the New Orleans Saints vs. Los Angeles Rams game.

Saints vs. Rams will undoubtedly draw the bigger handle, though Syracuse vs. South Florida could also catch the eyes of bettors as people start to take time off work for the holiday weekend.

According to the latest college football odds, the Orange are short 3-point favorites, suggesting this could be a very competitive matchup.

But when it comes to the smartest college football prediction, the Action Network's betting model is finding an enticing edge with the Syracuse vs. South Florida over/under.
