2024 NCAA Football – Week 1 Betting Picks Against Spread

This year has flown by and it’s now time for college football!

This year will be a fruitful year for us here at the site. I lost my long-time dog Nugget at this point last year. It devastated me and I wasn’t able to put the focus on writing my weekly sports betting and fantasy football articles. I was barely able to just post my picks and I wasn’t able to give the same insight that I have in the past. I’m in a much better place in my life and have a new dog Goober (see picture) that brings me joy.

I want to thank everyone for sticking with me and still visited the site. I didn’t half-ass my picks, as I did all the work on the back-end, but I promise to ‘full ass’ my picks and articles this season.

2024 College Football: All-Name Team

This is one of my favorite posts to do every year, but due to a death in the family last year, I was unable to make a list last season. I found a bunch of fresh names, and some long time favorites.

What makes a great college football name?

A good litmus test is if it works as a potential pro wrestling name, it works in college football. It also works if a name sounds like a verb, phrase, a certain body part or just a bad ass football name that makes them sound tough.

We went through every team in the top two divisions in the NCAA. We went through ever single name and picked out the ones that were funny and some names we just wish we had.

2022-23 College Basketball – All-Name Team

We haven’t lost a ton of guys off of last year’s list due to the extra year of eligibility many guys are taking advantage of, so we will have some fifth (or even sixth) year guys soon.

We picked through every Division-I college basketball roster and a few smaller schools for our list. This year’s class is strong and is a better version of last year’s All-Name Team.

My name is Bobby Roberts, so I am often jealous of people with unique names. The most unique thing about my name is that I was not born ‘Robert Roberts’, Bobby is my given name. I don’t know too many grown men named Bobby.

This list consists of names that we wished he had and ones we find humorous. Enjoy!

2022 NCAA Football – Week 1 Betting Picks Against Spread

College Football season is here, guys!

This year feels a little more like college football is officially back from the ‘Pandemic Era.’ I could be speaking a little early, but we aren’t inundated with player news surrounding testing results. It feels nice and I can’t wait to watch so many of these games.

We once again saw a ton of quarterbacks change teams thanks to the transfer portal. You may want to research who will be quarterbacking your team this season, because it could have changed. Quarterbacks like JT Daniels (West Virginia) and Dillon Gabriel (Oklahoma) could be game-changing additions.

Will Ohio State cover against Notre Dame?

2021 NCAA Football – Week 12 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 15-10 against the spread last week.

I had an alright week against the spread, but Purdue really let me down. They were playing so darn well and they just hit a wall against Ohio State. It was ugly and my hail may Purdue moneyline play was a lost cause by the end of the first quarter.

After a week of weak SEC games, there are a few solid games to watch this week. Arkansas at Alabama is one many are looking forward to, but the Razorbacks secondary could fold early.

Can Michigan State upset Ohio State on Saturday?

2020 NCAA Football – Week 11 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 13-10-1 against the spread last week.

If you’ve been going hard on underdog moneylines in the Big Ten this season, you probably have enough for a gold boat right now. I think the point spreads have corrected quite a bit since teams like Penn State and Michigan are seeing single-digit point spreads now.

I didn’t notice any glaring point spread miscues in the Pac 12 last week. I think bettors handicapped those teams pretty well. I think they are still a little light on Washington State, but we will see after this week’s game against Oregon.

The marquee game this week is Wisconsin at Michigan. Can the Wolverines avoid starting the year 1-3?

2020 NCAA Football – Week 10 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 12-13 against the spread last week.

The Big Ten has been weird so far. We’ve had teams like Indiana, Rutgers and Michigan State score victories over teams we expected to sail through those games. Maybe those teams have improved greatly since last season, but I doubt we will see Rutgers among the top-tier of teams in the conference at year’s end. Ohio State could be the best team in the conference by a large margin.

The marquee games this week are Florida vs Georgia (in Jacksonville) and Clemson at Notre Dame.

2020 NCAA Football – Week 9 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 12-13 against the spread last week.

I’ve been struggling the last three weeks with my college football picks. I thought the addition of Big Ten games to the schedule would fix my string of bad luck, but nope! Penn State, Michigan State and Iowa all shit the bed in their debuts.

I was impressed by a few Big Ten players last week. Michigan QB Joe Milton didn’t need to showcase much in their win over Minnesota, but he could do some damage with his size and athleticism. I was having Cam Newton flashbacks last weekend.

2020 NCAA Football – Week 7 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 12-12 against the spread last week.

Colleges are still struggling with COVID-19 outbreaks and a few games have already been cancelled/postponed from this weekend’s slate. As of Friday, all of the games I’ve picked are still scheduled to be played, but with positive numbers shooting up, it could still change.

The biggest game this weekend is Georgia at Alabama. It’s a shame that the Tide should be without head coach due to a positive COVID-19 test since this game will play such a huge factor in the SEC landscape.

2019 NCAA Football – Week 13 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 13-11-1 against the spread with my college football picks last week.

I really started out strong, but the late games last Saturday brought me back down to Earth.

There are some big games this weekend. The Penn State/Ohio State game could be viewed as a play-in game for the College Football Playoff. There are also some big games in the Big 12 that could weed out some of the teams for the Big 12 Championship game in a couple weeks.

Can Ohio State cover such a large point spread against Penn State?

2019 NCAA Football – Week 11 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 16-8-1 against the spread with my college football picks last week.

This could be the first week of the college football season that the weather could affect many games. It’s supposed to be cold and windy throughout the Midwest and Northeast this weekend. Please keep an eye on weather reports that could change the possible handicapping of games.

Will LSU vs Alabama be a shoot-out?

2018 NCAA Football – Week 10 Betting Picks Against Spread

I finished 12-12-1 against the spread last week.

After this weekend, there should be a pretty clear picture of what the College Football Playoff may look like at the end of the year.

There are some de facto CFP elimination games this week. Alabama vs LSU is the biggest of them all. I am interested in seeing two of the current top-four CFP ranked teams face-off.

Also, the Georgia game versus Kentucky has playoff implications as well. The winner will most likely win their division in the SEC and play in the conference championship game.
