2025 NFL Week 8 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 8-7 against the spread during the seventh week of the 2025 NFL season.

We have a light schedule this week with six teams on a bye week.

There are quite a few games dealing with notable injuries at quarterback that could affect betting lines the closer we get to Sunday.

The major injury status to keep an eye on is Ravens QB Lamar Jackson, who just returned to practice, but as of Thursday morning, his status is up in the air for their game against the Bears.

2025 NCAA Football – Week 8 Betting Picks Against Spread

In week seven of the college football season, I went 14-10-1 against the spread.

The Indiana Hoosiers had a coming-out party last year, but they were still getting no respect from the sportsbooks. After last week’s upset win at Oregon, they see their first bloated betting line of the year. Can they cover it against Michigan State?

Can USC travel to Notre Dame and upset the Irish?

2025 NFL Week 7 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 6-9 against the spread during the sixth week of the 2025 NFL season.

I got the panted beat off me last week. It was by far the worst week I’ve had against the spread, in the NFL or college football.

We have almost another full slate of games this week, with only two teams on bye.

How will the Buccaneers passing offense fare against a banged up Lions secondary?

Can the Bears win their four game in-a-row?

2025 NCAA Football – Week 7 Betting Picks Against Spread

In week six of the college football season, I went 10-15 against the spread.

Going into the season, the Red River Shootout looked to be a can’t miss game with a pair of talented quarterbacks, John Mateer and Arch Manning, but a lot has changed since the start of the year. It’s currently unknown if Mateer will play, and Manning has been very underwhelming.

Can the Indiana Hoosiers hang with one of the best teams in the Big Ten, the Oregon Ducks?

2025 NFL Week 6 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 6-8 against the spread during the fifth week of the 2025 NFL season.

I started out very rough with the early games, but was able to run the table on the afternoon games.

Last week, we saw a lot of outright upsets against perennial powerhouses. The Eagles, Bills and Chiefs all went down, which probably hasn’t happened in the same week in a long time.

Will the Lions cover on the road against the Kansas City Chiefs?

2025 NCAA Football – Week 6 Betting Picks Against Spread

In week five of the college football season, I went 16-9 against the spread.

There are some real make-it-or-break-it type of games this week. A lot of teams need a win to potentially save their season. You have teams like Clemson and Florida, with another loss, they’d both could start the year 1-4. It would be catastrophic for their fanbases, and a coach’s seat will be getting rather toasty.

Can Vanderbilt pull off another upset of Alabama?

2025 NFL Week 5 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-9 against the spread during the fourth week of the 2025 NFL season.

I started out pretty rough with the early games, but nearly caught up with the late games on Sunday. I split the Monday night games, so I came up a game short of .500.

This is the start of the bye weeks, so we have four teams on bye. We also have a lame early-Sunday game in London, which have largely been dull outings.

Will the Lions cover a double-digit spread against the Joe Burrow-less Bengals?

2025 NCAA Football – Week 5 Betting Picks Against Spread

In week 4 of the college football season, I went 11-13-1 against the spread.

This weekend is unofficially the start of many teams’ conference schedules. We have some big, marquee games with Alabama traveling to Georgia, Oregon traveling to Penn State. These games will be worth tuning into on Saturday.

Can Ole Miss take care of business at home against LSU?

2025 NFL Week 4 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 8-7-1 against the spread during the third week of the 2025 NFL season.

There were some lopsided wins last week, and I was on the losing end on almost all of those games. I did work my way back for some underdog picks.

After the fourth week is when I tend to pivot on some teams. I have already done that with a couple teams just based off injuries. I think teams like the Rams and Colts are destined to be moved up by rankings. This week’s game will prove a lot about both of those teams. The Buccaneers have a shot to make a big jump as well.

Who will win last year’s playoff rematch between the Baltimore Ravens and the Kansas City Chiefs?

2025 NCAA Football – Week 4 Betting Picks Against Spread

In week 3 of the college football season, I went 13-12 against the spread.

Most teams are starting their conference schedule this week, so betting lines will become a lot closer. We don’t see many 40-point betting lines after this week. We still have some gimme games with Sam Houston State traveling to Austin to face Texas.

Can the Clemson Tigers cover at home against the Syracuse Orange?

2025 NFL Week 3 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 11-5 against the spread during the second week of the 2025 NFL season.

I could have easily went 13-3 had I not pivoted so early on two of my picks. I usually hold steady, barring injuries, with my own preseason rankings. I tend to view a season in four parts, so I alter my rankings after a team’s fourth game.

We have a huge game on Monday Night Football. The Lions and Ravens meet, which has a shot to be a Super Bowl preview.

2025 NCAA Football – Week 3 Betting Picks Against Spread

In week 2 of the college football season, I went 13-11-1 against the spread.

We were spoiled by all the marquee games in Week 1, so the games since have left us a bit flat. We do have some solid SEC match-ups this week and Texas A&M vs Notre Dame is a nice litmus test for both programs.

We handicap a few sleeper teams this week. I think South Florida could string together some wins and make their ‘upset win’ over Florida not look so bad for the Gators.

Will Tennessee take care of business at home against Georgia?
