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?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 9 of the 2023-24 NCAA Football season (October 28th, 2023).

2023 NFL Week 8 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Kirk Cousins dottedI went 6-7 against the spread in Week 7.

I had an awful Sunday afternoon, but I was able to not completely lose my shirt by going 3-0 ATS on Thursday, late-Sunday and Monday night.

The most shocking outcome last week had to be the Ravens blowout win over the Lions. Baltimore had a stretch of games with a lot of key guys on the injured list. They are getting healthy, and if they acquire a running back, Baltimore could be one of the favorites in the AFC.

We have a full slate of games with zero teams out on bye this week.

2023 NCAA Football – Week 8 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I had another subpar performance with a 11-13-1 record. 

I was on fire the first couple weeks of the college football season, but I’ve had back-to-back weeks of under .500 performance. I needed to pivot off a few teams and I paid the price. I was glad I went heavy on Notre Dame last week, so I still ended up slightly ahead.

Can Ohio State take care of business at home against Penn State?

2023 NFL Week 7 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 8-7 against the spread in Week 6.

I just can’t shake my streak of mediocrity. I’ve been stagnant at .500-ish for awhile now and I need a big week.

Last week, there were a couple huge underdogs that won against the spread. Double-digit point spreads are notoriously difficult to cover, but one of those underdogs won outright (Browns), and another was damn close (Giants).

I don’t want to spoil my picks this week, but I’ve went heavy on the points. I feel like there is money to be made on the underdogs this week. I would even suggest betting the moneyline on a few ‘dogs this weekend.

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 NFL Week 6 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-7 against the spread in Week 5.

I’ve been hovering around .500 for the last two weeks. I’m still trying to get a feel for a few teams and the recent injuries aren’t helping me.

We have some stars that won’t be playing for awhile. Vikings WR Justin Jefferson and Colts rookie QB Anthony Richardson both landed on injured-reserve this week. The Vikings are still in decent shape at receiver, but his loss will still hurt. The Colts have one of the best backup QBs in the league and I expect the Colts to stay afloat with QB Gardner Minshew and the returning RB Jonathan Taylor.

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 NFL Week 5 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 9-7 against the spread in Week 4.

My bets were looking fantastic through the first-half of many games this week, but teams just made some key adjustments and a lot of my bets turned sideways late in the game. I was above .500, but didn’t hit on any parlays this week.

I was high on the Bengals going into this season, but they’ve really disappointed everyone. QB Joe Burrow isn’t 100% and the offense is just broken. They face the a beatable Cardinals team this week, can they turn it around?

2023 NCAA Football – Week 5 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I went 10-11-4 in a weird week with a ton of pushes across the board.

The betting line Gods had a great week as many of the lines were very tight. There were a few unexpected blowouts (Oregon vs Colorado), but games like Ohio State vs Notre Dame made it an outstanding week to watch college football.

2023 NFL Week 4 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 11-5 against the spread in Week 3.

I finally recorrected and was able to put together a positive week. I think we are finally starting to figure out which teams were overrated to start the year.

This could be my last ‘bare bones’ NFL article going forward. The break was very positive for my overall health and just adjusting to the loss of my longtime pet, and adding a new one to my life, has went well so far.

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 NFL Week 3 – Betting Picks Against Spread

ryan tannehill dottedI had another sub-.500 week, but it wasn’t as bad with a 7-9 record in Week 2.

This week’s article is another bare bones post. It may only be another week or two, but it helped me dedicate some time to work on my mental health. It’s been a rough month or so after my dog passed away. He was 14 years old and was by co-pilot on my lap, or below my feet, for nearly every betting article on this site.

One big positive that happened this week is that I decided to open up my heart to another dog. I was able to get another shih tzu and he’s been amazing. Training a puppy will be a bit difficult, but this little guy is pretty smart.
