2023 NCAA Football – Week 7 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I had my worst week of the season with a 11-13-1 record.

I started the year off pretty hot, but things have been a bit rough the last two weeks. I fell in love with a couple teams that turned out to be pretenders. There are still some teams in the Top 25 that have yet to play anyone of note, so those teams are hard to handicap right now.

Can Oregon win on the road against Washington?

2022 NCAA Football – Week 6 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I went 14-11 against the spread during Week 5 of the college football season.

We have some noteworthy Big 12 games this week. We should know a lot about the layout of the conference after Saturday. TCU plays Kansas (both surprisingly undefeated) and Texas faces Oklahoma.

Will TCU take care of business on the road or will Kansas continue their Cinderella run this season?

2022 NCAA Football – Week 3 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I went 16-8-1 against the spread during Week 2 of the college football season.

I almost feel bad adding a picture of Mississippi State QB WIll Rogers on this post. I haven’t added it up, but there is a long streak of futility that I need to mention. When player’s photo is featured on my college football picks, their team either loses or they get injured. That being said, I may need to apologize to Quinn Ewers for last week’s inclusion.

Notre Dame and Texas A&M bother suffered stunning upsets last week. Will they bounce back this weekend?

2022 NCAA Football – Week 2 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I went 12-12-1 against the spread during Week 1 of the college football season.

I felt good about my picks, but got unlucky when a few 50/50 balls didn’t go my way and it affected a couple scores. I feel that my personal preseason rankings was fairly accurate, but they had to be adjusted after Week 1.

Texas better hope that my photo streak ends, because the last few college football players I featured in the cover photo have failed to cover against the spread. I feel pretty good that Quinn Ewers can keep it relatively close against Alabama.

2021 NCAA Football – Week 6 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 14-10-1 against the spread last week.

I killed it in the early games on Saturday (again), but the late games really beat me up. I was 10-3 after the early games, but the Pac-12 games did me dirty.

There are some big Big Ten games this week. We will know if Penn State and Maryland are contenders after this week.

Can Notre Dame rebound from their home loss to Cincinnati last week?

Can Texas win the Red River Showdown?

2021 NCAA Football – Week 3 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 14-10-1 against the spread last week.

After two weeks of college football, we are starting to get a better feel for which teams could make a jump from ‘possible bowl team’ to ‘contender’.

Ohio State was the first championship contender to suffer their first loss of the year. They struggled against Oregon and have fell in the polls.

Alabama faces Florida in what may assume will be the game of the week. Can young Bama QB Bryce Young continue is unreal start to his collegiate career?

2021 NCAA Football – Week 2 Betting Picks Against Spread

I started the season with a rather uneventful 12-13 record. A few of my risks clearly didn’t pay off in Week 1.

It was a fun week of football, even if I had a rough week against the spread. There were some nice upsets (Montana def. Washington) and there were a few quarterback prospects who fell on their face (I’m looking at you, Sam Howell).

There were a ton of transfers this offseason and a few really came up big with their new teams. Notre Dame QB Jack Coan was a real treat to watch.

2021 NCAA Football – Week 1 Betting Picks Against Spread

College Football season is here, guys!

We didn’t get an official kickoff to the college football season last year due to all the pandemic issues. It looked like the entire season was going to be cancelled and then slowly teams started to schedule games. It’s nice to see a full slate of games to start the year.

The changes to the NCAA transfer portal has made things pretty crazy. There are a ton of new faces in new places. Oregon-transfer QB Tyler Shough has found a new home at Texas Tech. Many think he could end up being one of the top players chosen in next year’s NFL Draft. They kick off their season against the Houston Cougars.

Will Clemson cover against Georgia?

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.

2016 NCAA Football – Week 7 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 12-11-2 after some big upsets made for a tense afternoon. I was pretty happy to just end up around .500 after some of my bad beats.

I don’t expect weather to be an issue this weekend. Hurricane Matthew screwed up a few games last week and outright cancelled LSU/Florida.

There are a few key games in the Big Ten and SEC, but it’s a pretty average slate of games this weekend. There are a lot of top conference teams playing conference basement dwellers. It always seems like crazy things happen when there’s a bunch of “ho-hum” games.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick against the spread for all the big college football games on Saturday (October 15th, 2016) and a few Thursday games. We also pick five extra games as a bonus.

2016 NCAA Football – Week 6 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 12-12-1 after my bonus five picks decided to turn against me. I did have a few moneyline successes and hit on last week’s big game at Clemson.

This weekend has a full slate of great college football games. There are some games this weekend with massive implications. Some are rivalry games like Oklahoma vs Texas and Miami vs Florida State…and others are just good conference games that could factor into conference titles like Tennessee vs Texas A&M.

Could Charlie Strong’s job be on the line when Texas faces Oklahoma at the Cotton Bowl?

2016 College Football: All-Name Team

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.

We went through all the teams in the top two divisions in the NCAA. We read every name and picked out the ones that were funny and names we just wish we had.

My name is Bobby Roberts, so of all the people who can write a post poking fun at names, it’s me. I’m always asked if my real name is Robert Roberts (it’s not) or if my name is fake.

Here is the 2016-17 college football All-Name team.
