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.

2022 NCAA Football – Week 10 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I went 13-12 against the spread during Week 9 of the college football season.

The biggest game of the week could be the most important game of the entire season. Tennessee travels to Georgia this week and the winner will be in the driver’s seat for the SEC East spot in the conference championship game.

Can Oklahoma State rebound after getting shutout by Kansas State last weekend?

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?

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?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 7 of the 2019-20 NCAA Football season (October 12th, 2019). We also pick some smaller conference games.

2018 NCAA Football – Week 6 Betting Picks Against Spread

I finished 14-11 last week, but really lost steam when it came to the late games. I got off to a great start, but the Pac-12 games and two nationally-televised late games ruined what could have been a pretty epic week. I still finished three games above .500, which isn’t a total loss.

There are some big games this weekend that weren’t viewed as important before the season. Indiana travels to Ohio State and Texas A&M hosts undefeated Kentucky. No one circled those games before the year, but now they are pretty darn important.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 6 of the 2018-19 NCAA Football season (October, 6th, 2018). We also pick some smaller conference games.

2017 March Madness: #6 Maryland vs #11 Xavier

We are here to help you fill out your brackets and finally beat your cubicle neighbor in your office pool this year.

Maryland is a star-driven team with Melo Trimble getting all the spotlight. They aren’t a very deep team, but you can’t argue with their record. They are a team you can’t take lightly.

Xavier looked like a possible top-four seed team until their start guard tore his ACL. The team is still stacked and the question is, which player will step up for them?

Can Xavier upset Maryland in Orlando?

Who do you think will win? We help you fill out your bracket.

2016 March Madness: #5 Maryland vs #12 South Dakota State

We are here to help you fill out your brackets and finally beat ‘Rhonda the intern’ in your office pool this year.

The Big Ten was solid all year long. Maryland was ranked along with Michigan State, Indiana, Iowa, Purdue and others all season. The talent level in the conference rivals any of the other power conferences.

The Summit League isn’t a well-known conference, but teams in the conference have made for some interesting NCAA Tournament matchups in year’s past.

Could the Jackrabbits upset the Terrapins?

2015-16 College Basketball – All-Name Team

We have many new entries this season, but I’m sad great names like McWisdon Badejo and Nimrod Hilliard have graduated. We have plenty of fun names this year.

We picked through every Division-I college basketball roster and a few smaller schools for our list. This year’s class is solid and better than last year’s All-Name Team. We went through a rebuilding year and we are a better team.

My name is Bobby Roberts, so I am often jealous of people with unique names. The most unique thing about my name is that I was not born ‘Robert Roberts’, Bobby is my given name. I don’t know too many grown men named Bobby.

This list consists of names that we wished he had and ones we find humorous. Enjoy!

2015 NCAA Football – Week 2 Betting Picks Against Spread

Sorry I didn’t post a ‘college football picks against the spread’ post last week. I never bet on the first week of college football. It’s too risky and honestly, a lot of it is just dumb luck. You don’t get a preseason to watch the teams and it’s a crapshoot. I like going into a ‘betting season’ with more knowledge than just what comes in a media guide.

I’ve been making college football picks against the spread for the last five or six years. I’ve only been keeping a running total the last two years. I am 282-197-12 during that time.

I’ve been on a hot streak the last two years. Any year in which you have a 60%+ success rate on your bets. it is a successful year. I hope I helped you guys out.

We pick against the spread for all the big college football games on Saturday (September 12th, 2015), and pick some smaller conference games as well. Enjoy!

College Football Week 12: Wounded Spartans Take on Maryland Terrapins in Must Win Game

The true strength of a team is often measured in how well they bounce back after adversity. In college football, that usually means picking yourself up after a loss that caused what many might perceive as irreparable damage to your season. The team that has to do that this week is the Michigan State Spartans.

The Spartans were riding high and still very much in the playoff picture before facing Ohio State last week. Sixty minutes later, their hopes and dreams for the season had been pretty much demolished after taking a hefty beating that was sure to have resulted in a shell shocked locker room, and let’s not talk about what happened to their football betting odds to reach the college football playoffs. What made the loss even bitterer to swallow was that the Spartans defense had been so solid all year. If you had told people before that game that Michigan State would put 37-points on the board, very few would have bet on them losing, but the defense folded and gave up 49.

This week they have to go on the road to face a Maryland team that has been about as inconsistent as it gets. They are on a win one/lose one stretch of games that makes them very tough to figure out. This is a team that can’t seem to get a solid 60 out of their offense and defense. When one plays great, the other one seems to struggle. If the defense struggles this weekend, they could be on the end of a hiding.
