2021 NCAA Football – Week 5 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 14-11 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 8-2 after the early games, so the late ones spanked me around.

We are seeing more conference games this week. The Big Ten and SEC are well underway with the conference portion of their schedule.

Can Wisconsin rebound from their embarrassing blowout loss last week?

Can Cincinnati knock off Notre Dame in South Bend?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 5 of the 2021-22 NCAA Football season (October 2nd, 2021).

2021 NCAA Football – Week 4 Betting Picks Against Spread

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

I killed it in the early games on Saturday, but was was slaughtered with my afternoon and late night picks.

We are slowly getting into early days of in-conference games. We will get more historical data, which usually means tougher point spreads.

Wisconsin-transfer QB Jack Coan (now at Notre Dame) will start against his former team this weekend. Will the Badgers cover in Soldier Field?

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.

2020 NCAA Football – Week 15 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 13-10 against the spread last week.

There have already been a handful of games cancelled due to COVID-19, and I expect many more will fall into that category before Saturday.

I was really looking forward to the now-cancelled Indiana/Purdue and Ohio State/Michigan games, but for very different reasons. I wanted to see more from IU’s backup quarterback and also see Ohio State blowout a bad Michigan team.

2020 NCAA Football – Week 13 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 10-13 against the spread last week.

There were well over a dozen games cancelled last week, but as of Wednesday night, there are only a few at this time, but that is most likely subject to change.

The first College Football Playoff rankings were released this week. Alabama tops the list with Notre Dame, Clemson, Ohio State and Texas A&M follow in that order.

Can Notre Dame stay among the top teams and win (and cover) against North Carolina?

2020 NCAA Football – Week 12 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 13-9 against the spread last week.

As of Thursday afternoon, there have been 14 college football games wither cancelled or postponed due to COVID-19. My guess is that there will be a couple more cancelled before Saturday.

The marquee game this week is Indiana at Ohio State. Can the Hoosiers shock the country and stay undefeated?

2020 NCAA Football – Week 8 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 11-12 against the spread last week.

I’m glad to see more potential college football games on the schedule. It was tough gathering 25 games to pick when there were barely 25 games on the schedule.

Big Ten and Mountain West teams are making their season debuts this week. This will add a dozen games to the schedule with a few other conferences due to start in the coming weeks.

Can Ohio State start to receive first-place votes in the polls with a big win against Nebraska?

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?

2019 NCAA Football – Week 9 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 14-11 against the spread with my college football picks last week.

We are still waiting on that ‘Bizarro Betting Weekend’ we seem to get every year. It’s usually when the leaves start to change and we get a ton of upsets. Some of those upsets can be blamed on trap games or letdowns, but it hasn’t happened yet. Could it be this weekend?

There are a few big marquee games this weekend. Ohio State vs Wisconsin, Notre Dame vs Michigan and Auburn vs LSU are the three that I’ll definitely be watching on Saturday.

Which games will you be watching on Saturday?

2019 NCAA Football – Week 7 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 13-12 against the spread with my college football picks last week.

I am really due for a big week as I’ve hovered around .500 for a few weeks in a row.

Their are two big games this weekend. Notre Dame hosts USC and Oklahoma faces Texas in the Cotton Bowl. You could even add Penn State at Iowa or Michigan State Wisconsin to the list, but I don’t see Michigan State as a potential Big Ten contender.

Will any of the top teams fall to an upset this weekend?

2019 NCAA Football – Week 6 Betting Picks Against Spread

I apologize for getting my college football picks out this late, but my hosting company decided to migrate thousands of sites to larger servers…and didn’t get an email telling me this was going to happen. After it was moved, I had to call the security company that protects my site. The hosting company didn’t tell them the new IP address of the server and they had to add that manually. So, after 30 hours of random back-and-forth calls, it’s now fixed.

There are some huge games this week that could knock off a few conference championship contenders. Iowa vs Michigan and Auburn vs Florida are two must-watch games this week.

2019 NCAA Football – Week 5 Betting Picks Against Spread

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

The college football landscape looks and feels a little different now that we saw the outcome of the Georgia/Notre Dame and Wisconsin/Michigan games. We can probably write off Michigan being any sort of Big Ten championship contender after that poor performance.

We are also making a shortlist of potential Heisman candidates. No one is running away with it yet, but conference play is just getting started. We should be able to cross off a few guys after this week.
