2024 NCAA Football – Week 8 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 14-10-1 against the spread in Week 7 of the 2024-25 College Football season.

I was able to edge out a win for the week and profited thanks to a couple moneyline plays (my parlays weren’t as lucky).

The SEC appears to be in a state of flux with Vanderbilt knocking off Alabama and Kentucky. The Commodores haven’t been remotely good in well over a decade. The conference no longer has a consistent doormat to beat up on this year.

2024 NCAA Football – Week 6 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 14-10-1 against the spread in Week 5 of the 2024-25 College Football season.

We don’t have a huge marquee games this week like Alabama vs Georgia, but I think the schedule has a depth of very good games on the schedule.

We have some notable Big Ten match-ups this week with Iowa travelling to Ohio State and Michigan flies out West to face Washington.

2024 NCAA Football – Week 2 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 14-10-1 against the spread in Week 1 of the 2024-25 College Football season.

It was a ‘somewhat’ successful opening week of the college football season. I was able to hit a parlay, which was needed to profit.

I usually stay away from large point spreads, but I sucked it up last week, and hit on most of those. There is just too many factors that need to happen for a team to cover a spread larger than 35 points.

2023 NCAA Football – Week 14 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I had another middle-of-the-road week with a 12-12-1 record in Week 12. 

We have some weird games on the schedule for Championship Week. Michigan faces a weird Iowa squad that has almost zero offense and lives via their outstanding defense. Also, Louisville faces Florida State, who lost their star QB Jordan Travis due to a gruesome lower leg injury.

One of the bigger games of the year seems to be a bit of an after-thought since Alabama hasn’t been as dominant as in past years. Can Georgia cover the near-touchdown point spread in the SEC Championship game?

2023 NCAA Football – Week 11 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I had a rough outing with a 10-13-2 record. 

The early games really bent me over, but I was able to not make this a complete disaster with a sweep of a half-dozen late-Saturday night games.

We have some important games on the schedule this week. Michigan versus Penn State will get the most oxygen, but I would point out that the Tennessee/Missouri and Mississippi/Georgia contests could transform the eventual College Football Playoff race more. Ole Miss and Missouri are both very underrated teams.

2023 NCAA Football – Week 6 Betting Picks Against Spread

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

This week’s slate of games feels a little light. The big games of Oklahoma vs Texas (at a neutral site) and Alabama at Mississippi State are sucking up most of the oxygen this week. These games could likely eliminate the other from the College Football Playoff race. It’s too early in the season to completely do that, but they would be in a large hole.

Can Kentucky pull off the upset against Georgia?

2023 NCAA Football – Week 4 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I stayed above .500 with my college football picks against the spread again, but with only a 13-12 week.

I don’t want to repeat word-for-word what I said in my NFL column, but the next couple weeks could be bare-bones picks. I have some stuff going on personally and I need to just focus on my mental health. I love writing these betting articles, but sometimes you just have to step back for a bit.

2023 NCAA Football – Week 2 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I started the year off by going 15-10 against the spread.

Transfer quarterbacks are already making a name for themselves at their new programs. Over half of the teams I profile in my first ten picks have transfer quarterbacks. It’s a nice wrinkle for college football, but can be confusing if you’re not a hardcore fan. I can understand why some traditionalists hate it, but if a coach can leave, a player should be able as well.

How will Notre Dame fare in their first true test of the season?

2022 NCAA Football – Week 8 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I went 16-9 against the spread during Week 7 of the college football season.

There are a handful of big games this week, but I doubt anything will top last week’s Tennessee/Alabama contest. I hope one of the games this week is half as fun to watch.

UCLA at Oregon should be one of the better games this week. I will be interested to see how Chip Kelly’s offense stacks up against the Ducks.

Can Alabama rebound with a cover against Mississippi State?

2021 NCAA Football – Week 9 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 17-8 against the spread last week.

I had my best betting week of the college football season. I started the season with a couple rough-to-average weeks, but have been racking up wins more down the stretch.

The Big Ten has some big games this week. Michigan at Michigan State, Penn State at Ohio State and Iowa at Wisconsin are all must-watch games.

I’m keeping an eye on Florida State at Clemson. It’s a must-win for Clemson as they’re struggling right now. I think Florida State has a shot at the upset.

2021 NCAA Football – Week 7 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 11-13-1 against the spread last week.

My bets were looking great…but then Oklahoma replaced QB Spencer Rattler with Caleb Williams. and that was a turning point. How the hell did Texas lose that game?

Kentucky has a huge ‘prove it’ game against Georgia. Both teams are undefeated, but the Wildcats are far less respected. Can Kentucky surprise everyone and keep it close against Georgia?

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?
