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?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 5 of the 2025-26 NCAA Football season (September 27th, 2025).

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?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 4 of the 2025 NFL season.

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?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 3 of the 2025-26 NCAA Football season (September 13th, 2025).

2025 NFL Week 2 – Betting Picks Against Spread

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

I started the year ‘on mild’, but I like this week’s slate of games and betting lines.

We have some big games like the Eagles traveling to Kansas City to have a Super Bowl rematch with the Chiefs. Also, I think the Broncos at Colts game will be a nice litmus test game for both teams.

Any longshot underdogs covering this weekend?

2025 NCAA Football – Week 2 Betting Picks Against Spread

I started the year 13-12 against the spread.

This week’s games don’t have the caché as last week’s marquee match-ups. We have a lot of filler games and FBS vs. FCS teams to pad their win totals.

Texas are licking their wounds after falling to Ohio State. They have a gimme game this week when San Jose State travels to Austin.

Will Michigan freshman QB Bryce Underwood perform well against the Oklahoma Sooners?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 2 of the 2025-26 NCAA Football season (September 6th, 2025).

2025 NFL Week 1 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Are you ready to place your bets?

I went 158-120-8 against the spread last season. It wasn’t my best year, as I just hovered around .500 most weeks, but did have a few huge weeks to make my final numbers look much better. I hope to start the year off with a big week.

I have written a monster post that somewhat acts like miniature season previews for every team. I don’t expect to reach 4,000 words again this year, but you never know.

Which sophomore quarterback will take a big leap in Year Two?

2025 NCAA Football – Week 1 Betting Picks Against Spread

It’s officially the start of the college football season, so let the betting begin!

There is a lot of hype surround a specific Manning kid that plays down in Texas. His autographed cards are selling for hundreds, if not thousands of dollars. He has a tough test in Week 1, and we should get an idea where his talent level is against Ohio State.

There are more marquee games than just Ohio State/Texas since college football doesn’t have to compete with the NFL. We have games every day from Thursday through Monday night.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 1 of the 2025-26 NCAA Football season (August 30th, 2025).

Super Bowl 59 – Betting Picks Against Spread & Prop Bets

Super Bowl 59 is this Sunday and it’s a prop bets smorgasbord.

I LOVE prop bets. I actually get more joy out of betting Super Bowl prop bets than betting against the spread. Yes, most are a crap shoot, but with the right research, you can end up winning bets with very favorable odds.

I’m not saying you can research who will win the coin toss, but there are many other player and team prop bets out there that have nice odds.

Some prop bets aren’t worth the money (the juice isn’t worth the slight risk), but sometimes you just have to lay a few bucks down, cross your fingers and wish for the best.

I picked out some of the most popular prop bets for Super Bowl 59 (or Super Bowl LIX for Roman numeral fans)…and we also pick the game against the spread.

2024-25 NFL Conference Championships – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 3-0-1 against the spread during the Divisional Round.

We have two very different games on the schedule this week.

The NFC Championship have a new contender in the race with the Washington Commanders being a surprise opponent for the Philadelphia Eagles.

The AFC Championship had no surprises, as these two teams were favored to meet here since the start of the season.

We pick both NFL Conference Championship games against the spread (and point over/under totals) for the 2024-25 NFL weekend of playoff action.

2024-25 NFL Divisional Playoffs – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 3-3 against the spread during Wild Card Weekend.

The Wild Card games were a bit ho-hum, but we did get one or two solid games. I expect a lot more drama this week. I think both late games will deliver just that.

The Chiefs and Lions are coming off their well-deserved bye week, will they look rested or rusty?

Does rookie Washington QB Jayden Daniels have any more magic left in him?

We pick every NFL Divisional game against the spread and throw out a few upsets for the 2024-25 NFL weekend of playoff action.
