College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: New Years Eve 2024 And New Years Day 2025
We have five games on New Year's Eve before the final three quarterfinals of the expanded playoff on New Year's Day. That's a lot of (supposed) quality football games. Five of the eight matchups feature a ranked team against another ranked team. What more can we ask for (besides a revert to a four-team playoff)? […]
College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: Bowl Games 12/28 and 12/30 2024
We get our busiest day of bowl season today with seven games. Nice, huh? I'll include Monday's pick here as well. We'll get to the rest of the bowl games on Monday to try and get a more accurate spread. Most of the players who will be in the portal are already there, but Winston […]
College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: Bowl Games Week 2 (12/23 Through 12/27 2024)
The bowls start picking up in earnest after Christmas. For those spread picks, I will likely do an article per day. It is the age of opt-outs, even from teams in the playoffs. This is the most up-to-date site I've found so far. It has been a great help over the first week! I closed […]
College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: Bowl Games Week 1 (12/17 Through 12/21 2024)
We have 10 games in this first week of bowl season, including the first four games of the expanded college football playoff. Does it make for better games early on in bowl season? Yes. Do we need three-loss teams with a chance for a championship? Not a chance. I closed out the regular season strong, […]
College Football Betting Picks: Saturday, December 14, 2024 And Week 15 Results
The regular season and conference championships are over. For the first time in forever, we have the Army-Navy game coupled with a couple of bowl games on the same weekend. Oh...and they hand out this little award called the Heisman Trophy that finally isn't a QB popularity contest. One of these bowls is the Celebration […]
College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: Championship Week (12/6 And 12/7 2024)
It has all come down to Championship Week. Of course, it's a little anticlimactic when half of the teams that will be in the playoff aren't playing this week. We still have some drama with the Big 12 (16) likely only getting the champion in. Boise State is in a position where they need to […]
College Football Betting Picks: Week 14 2024 Results
We go from the largest betting week of college football to one of the smallest. We only have nine conference championship games now. Three of them are played on Friday with the other six happening on Saturday. Those will all be in one post this week. The largest college football betting week of the season […]
Bold Predictions for Conference Championship Week - 2024 College Football
All roads lead to conference championship week. After a wild Week 14, the slate does not look how it was previously anticipated to look. Ohio State and Miami will be watching this week’s matchups from the couch, while teams like Clemson, Boise State, UNLV, Arizona State, and Iowa State are fighting for their CFP lives. […]
College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread (11/30/24)
We close out the regular season in style today with 50 games. Most of these are rivalries and some of them have clever little nicknames. Not Ohio State and Michigan. "The Game?" Really? Get a little more creative! Like Farmageddon. Farmageddon is good. I got some of the chaos right last week, but not where […]
College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread (11/29/24)
We have a nice 14-game slate on Friday. While all of you are out shopping, I'll be home watching (and betting) on football trying to make some extra money for Christmas. Tis the season, after all. Tomorrow is still a monster, but we have a nice selection of games today. I'm not going to complain! […]
Bold Predictions for Week 14 - 2024 College Football
We may be back. Last week’s bold predictions column went 2-of-3, as Ohio State and Arizona State both delivered. Colorado -- not so much. This week is the most anticipated in any college football regular season: Rivalry week. This season’s highlight game is a rivalry renewed, as Texas travels to Kyle Field to play Texas […]
College Football Betting Picks: Thursday, November 28, 2024 And Week 13 Results
We had our largest week since Week 3 in college football, which did not disappoint! I was backing a lot of the dogs this week. Did it help or did it hurt? We'll take a look back at Week 13 before we get to the one pick in the article this week. There is only […]
College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread (11/23/24)
We have our busiest Saturday since Week 3, with 53 games this week. Judging by my performance lately, that's 53 more chances to fail. I'm optimistic about this week since I feel like I was on the right track last week. I went against my instincts a couple of times, was robbed by the refs […]
Bold Predictions for Week 13 - 2024 College Football
Last week’s segment was another swing and a miss. Pitt nearly took down Clemson, but quarterback Cade Klubnik diced up the defense with a clutch game-winning touchdown run with slightly over a minute remaining. Nebraska had USC on the ropes but ultimately fell short. Tennessee didn’t even start its backup quarterback with Nico Iamaleava healthy […]
College Football Betting Picks: Thursday and Friday Games (Week 13 - 2024)
This week was a little larger, but we had cupcake week in the SEC. This week the ACC partakes, but we still have our largest week of games in nearly two months this week. Most of those games are on Saturday. With MACtion taking up five of the nine mid-week games this week, that doesn't […]
Bold Predictions for Week 12 - 2024 College Football
Based on the way this column has gone over the past few weeks, it would be wise to take every prediction that I have laid out here and create a parlay that is betting the exact opposite of all three outcomes. These bold predictions have not been shaking out cleanly, but I have a good […]
College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread (11/16/24)
We are up to 42 games on Saturday despite a couple of SEC teams snacking on cupcakes this week. This is our busiest week in the last three weeks and I need a get-right week like Penn State had last week. Week 11 was brutal. I only got 18 of 50 picks right and lost […]
College Football Betting Picks: Thursday and Friday Games (Week 12 - 2024)
Last week was our smallest week in a while. We are ramping back up this week with MACtion taking over the early week and C-USA and the Fun Belt heading back to Saturdays. It's going to be a busy last month of the season. I have a feeling that I didn't fare all that well […]
College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread (11/9/24)
Where did this season go? We are in November already! We had 10 games before Saturday this week and have another lighter Saturday on tap. We still have 40 games to win some money on and I plan on doing just that. Are you with me? I finished a solid 26-22 last week but missed […]
Bold Predictions for Week 11 - 2024 College Football
Another week, another missed opportunity to take a victory lap. My Week 10 bold predictions were all duds. Jeremiah Smith only had 55 yards in the nail-biting Ohio State win, Arkansas got throttled 63-31, and Tennessee only scored 28 points in a game that was too close for comfort. That’s why we call them bold […]
College Football Betting Picks: Thursday and Friday Games (Week 11 - 2024)
Last week was our smallest week in a while. We are ramping back up this week with MACtion taking over the early week and C-USA and the Fun Belt heading back to Saturdays. It's going to be a busy last month of the season. I started out poorly last week and I never quite recovered, […]
College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread (11/2/24)
Where did this season go? We are in November already! This is the lightest week of the entire season with only 39 games involving FCS teams on Saturday. We still have some good ones to pick. It's the week of the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party. That has to count for something! I finished a […]
Bold Predictions for Week 10 College Football - Freshman Phenom Goes Off, SEC Upset Eliminates Playoff Contender, and more
Week 9’s bold predictions were, let’s face it, a little too bold. Syracuse most definitely did not hand Pitt its first loss, Michigan State was close but did not upset Michigan, and UCF was nowhere near toppling the still-perfect BYU Cougars. Week 10’s slate has upset week written all over it. There are a plethora […]
College Football Betting Picks: Thursday and Friday Games (Week 10 - 2024)
We had more Tuesday and Wednesday college football this week and I love it! Those picks were released in the DFS articles again this week. There is only one game on Thursday this week before three games on Friday. The difference is that the Big Ten (18) is taking Friday off this week. So far, […]
College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread (10/26/24)
We have a lighter Saturday with many teams taking in mid-season off weeks and one team (UMass) slumming in FCS. We still have a solid 47-game slate to keep us occupied. I already missed one max bet last night (Old freaking Dominion, of course), so I have some ground to make up already. I never […]
College Football Betting Picks: Thursday and Friday Games (Week 9 2024)
We had the return of Tuesday and Wednesday college football this week and I love it! Those picks were released in the DFS articles again this week. We have a busy Thursday and Friday again, which I also love. There is no better time to be a college football fan than in October when we […]
Bold Predictions for Week 9 - 2024 College Football
After a two-week dry spell, my Week 8 bold predictions finally started to hit again. I was way off on Nebraska over Indiana, but Tennessee over Alabama and Illinois over Michigan both held true. Week 9’s slate again has the potential for some wild results. After hours of mulling through the slate, I have crafted […]
College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread (10/19/24)
We have our busiest Saturday since Week 3 with 48 games today. Most teams are in conference play now and most have had their bye. This is where the grind starts to hit. I finished 25-27 last week but still won nine betting points. After a disastrous Week 6, that's exactly what I needed. Let's […]
College Football Betting Picks: Thursday and Friday Games (Week 8 2024)
We had the return of Tuesday and Wednesday college football this week and I love it! Those picks were released in the DFS articles. We have a busy Thursday and Friday again this week, which I also love. There is no better time to be a college football fan than in October when we have […]
