2024 NCAA Football – Week 3 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 13-12 against the spread in Week 2 of the 2024-25 College Football season.

I apologize for not having my picks up by mid-week, but I’ve been a busy bee this week.

We have quite a few local rivalry games on the schedule, and the outcomes can be a bit unpredictable in those sort of games.

Can Colorado buck the trend of underperforming against the spread?

2023 NCAA Football – Week 9 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I had another lackluster performance with a 12-12-1 record.

Last week was a great week for some big marquee games, but we don’t have as many this weekend. Georgia/Florida and Oregon/Utah contests lead the pack on the schedule. We would have some more important games, but teams like Wisconsin and South Carolina are having below average seasons.

Can Kansas get an upset at home against the Oklahoma Sooners?

2023 NCAA Football – Week 7 Betting Picks Against Spread

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

I started the year off pretty hot, but things have been a bit rough the last two weeks. I fell in love with a couple teams that turned out to be pretenders. There are still some teams in the Top 25 that have yet to play anyone of note, so those teams are hard to handicap right now.

Can Oregon win on the road against Washington?

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.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 4 of the 2023-24 NCAA Football season (September 23rd, 2023).

2019-20 College Basketball – All-Name Team

Many names on last year’s College Basketball All-Name Team were lost to graduation and the NBA. There’s always some one-and-done players, but we lost some all-timers like Tacko Fall and Bol Bol. This is more like a rebuilding year, but there are a handful of great new names that head up this year’s All-Name Team.

We picked through every Division-I college basketball roster and a few smaller schools for our list. This year’s class is solid and right up there with last year’s All-Name 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!

2018 NCAA Football – Week 11 Betting Picks Against Spread

I finished 15-9-1 against the spread last week.

The college football playoff picture is more in focus after some big games last week. Georgia is basically on their way to the SEC Championship game after beating Kentucky. Also, Alabama made a huge statement in their shutout win against LSU.

There are some big Big Ten games this week with both Penn State and Ohio State having big games that could alter the conference title game picture.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 11 of the 2018-19 NCAA Football season (November, 10th, 2018). We also pick some smaller conference games.

2016 March Madness: #7 Oregon State vs #10 VCU

We are here to help you fill out your brackets and finally beat ‘Tammy in the mail room’ this year.

The Pac-12 was fun to watch this year, but teams beat the hell out of each other during the conference schedule. The Beavers came out of the Pac-12 schedule with a negative efficiency rating. The got a #7 seed thanks to their RPI rating.

The Atlantic 10 had a three-way tie for the regular season title. Dayton, VCU and St. Bonaventure tied with St. Joseph’s finishing one game out. The Rams have a core group of upperclassmen that have experience in the tournament.

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

2014 NCAA Football – Week 13 Betting Picks Against Spread

I had an up & down week. I went 10-10, but hit on a couple moneyline underdogs. I didn’t foresee the Melvin Gordon’s record day or I would have picked Wisconsin over Nebraska. My record is now 120-96-3 on the season.

Snow blanketed many parts of the Midwest and Northeast this week. Those areas are expected to thaw out and shouldn’t be huge problems. Please keep an eye on weather forecasts in case weather patterns shift.

We were 134-79-8 against the spread betting on college football games last season. We hope to keep it going and help you guys out again this season.

We pick against the spread for all the big college football games on Saturday (November 22nd, 2014), and picked some smaller conference games as well. Enjoy!

2014-15 College Basketball – All-Name Team

We have many new entries this season, but I’m sad great names like God’sgift Achiuwa have graduated. We do have plenty of fun names to him.

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.

This list consists of names that we wished he had and ones we find humorous. We even included some famous kids of former NBA players.

2013 NCAA Football – Week 12 Betting Picks Against Spread

I had my best week of the season. I went 16-4 with my picks against the spread. Stanford, Vanderbilt and Kansas State really came through for me. Those three moneyline plays are my best calls of the year. I am now 98-58-7 on the season.

I like a lot of road underdogs in Week 12 of the 2013 college football season (November 16th to be exact). The home favorites are overvalued this week. You get that at this point in the season. Bettors have a habit of sticking with teams they’ve had success with all year. Vegas knows this, so those teams will have a point spread with little value in their favor.

We pick against the spread for all the big college football games on Saturday, plus a few games in the MAC and American Athletic Conference as always…we also sneak in Wednesday and Thursday night games . Enjoy!

2013 NCAA Football – Week 10 Betting Picks Against Spread

My streak of winning weeks is still intact…barely.

I went 10-9-1 last week with my picks, bringing my season total to 72-44-7 on the season. It was my worst week so far this season, but still better than many of my sports betting friends.

Week 10 of the 2013 college football season (November 2nd to be exact) has a few rivalry games (Michigan/Michigan State), but college football is still in the lull of finishing conference games. The true rivalry games are still a week or more away.

I want to remind everyone that we’re at a point in the season where favorites often fall or fail to cover the spread. When making a bet, look to see if any teams had a common opponent earlier in the season. Look long and hard at home underdogs and teams trying to lock up bowl eligibility.

2013 NCAA Football – Week 9 Betting Picks Against Spread

My streak of winners is still intact.

I went 12-7-1 last week with my picks, bringing my season total to 62-35-6 on the season. I was consistent with the previous week (11-7-1), but I picked one more game.

Week 9 of the 2013 college football season (October 26th to be exact) doesn’t have a Clemson/Florida State-type marquee game and has an overall weak schedule of games.

We’re at a point in the season where favorites often fall or fail to cover the spread. When making a bet, look to see if any teams had a common opponent earlier in the season. I went ‘underdog heavy’ in this week’s picks against the spread. Injury reports and weather conditions also grow more and more important deeper in the college football season.

We pick against the spread for all the big college football games on Saturday, plus a few games in the MAC and American Athletic Conference as always…we also sneak in a Thursday night game . Enjoy!
