2023 NCAA Football – Week 3 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I stayed a little hot with my college football picks against the spread with a 16-9 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. I should have done this since the start of the season, but I’m stubborn af.

2022 College Football Playoff Semifinals Betting Picks Against Spread

The College Football Playoff teams were chosen weeks ago, and it wasn’t without controversy.

Two of the four teams lost their last contest, and Ohio State didn’t even play in their conference championship game. There were a lot of people who thought other conference champions deserved to leapfrog the Buckeyes in the rankings.

Can Georgia and Michigan continue their perfect seasons and avoid the upset?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick every college football game against the spread during the College Football Playoff Semifinals of the 2022-23 NCAA Football season (December 31st, 2022).

2022 NCAA Football – Week 14 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I went 15-10 against the spread during Week 13 of the college football season.

Conference Championship Week is here!

I like this year’s slate of championship games. I expect most of these games will be tight and the point spreads reflect that. There are a couple double-digit point spreads, but you expected larger point spreads in the Purdue/Michigan and LSU/Georgia games.

2022 NCAA Football – Week 11 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I went 13-12 against the spread during Week 10 of the college football season.

I’ve had a few near-.500 weeks in a row, but I’m feeling pretty damn good about this week’s slate of games.

This week lacks a huge marquee game, but there are still solid games on the schedule. I’m looking forward to TCU/Texas and Florida State/Syracuse.

Can Alabama rebound after last week’s tough loss and cover against Ole Miss?

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?

2022 NCAA Football – Week 6 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I went 14-11 against the spread during Week 5 of the college football season.

We have some noteworthy Big 12 games this week. We should know a lot about the layout of the conference after Saturday. TCU plays Kansas (both surprisingly undefeated) and Texas faces Oklahoma.

Will TCU take care of business on the road or will Kansas continue their Cinderella run this season?

2019 NCAA Football – Week 13 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 13-11-1 against the spread with my college football picks last week.

I really started out strong, but the late games last Saturday brought me back down to Earth.

There are some big games this weekend. The Penn State/Ohio State game could be viewed as a play-in game for the College Football Playoff. There are also some big games in the Big 12 that could weed out some of the teams for the Big 12 Championship game in a couple weeks.

Can Ohio State cover such a large point spread against Penn State?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 13 of the 2019-20 NCAA Football season (November 23rd, 2019). We also pick some smaller conference games.

2018 NCAA Football – Week 9 Betting Picks Against Spread

I finished 16-9 against the spread last week.

After a few weeks of near .500 against the spread in college football, I finally had a week to hang my hat on.

I was getting frustrated and there was a couple weeks where I was a bit sluggish on writing my betting picks. They came out a day or two later than I normally write them (late-Wednesdays). I just had to re-evaluate some teams and tweak my own personal rankings.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 9 of the 2018-19 NCAA Football season (October, 27th, 2018). We also pick some smaller conference games.

2018 NCAA Football – Week 4 Betting Picks Against Spread

Thanks to some cancelled games last week, I went 11-11-1 with college football picks against the spread in Week 3. I usually pick 25 games, but a few went unplayed thanks to the hurricane that hit the East Coast.

There are some marquee games this weekend. Texas A&M vs Alabama, TCU at Texas and Stanford at Oregon starts the first week of a lot of conference games. Most teams start to play conference games next week, so we won’t get many out-of-conference games going forward.

2017 NCAA Football – Week 11 Betting Picks Against Spread

I finished 13-11-1 last week.

I’ve struggled picking Pac 12 games this season. I need to avoid that conference for at least one week. I tend to jump on the road teams when they are large underdogs. Pac 12 teams have been pretty darn good at home since conference play started. I still picked a couple Pac 12 games this week, but way less than usual.

I decided to add five more games this week. There were some ACC and Big Ten games that I really liked, so it wasn’t too much extra work.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 30 college football games against the spread in Week 11 of the NCAA Football season (November 11th, 2017). We also pick some smaller conference games.

2017 NCAA Football – Week 4 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 15-10 last week against the spread. I was skating around the point spreads all over the place. I won a few games by a point or two and also lost them by small margins. Vegas really hit the nail on the head on quite a few games last week.

Now that it is in the fourth week of college football, do you think we know these teams? No, it all changes this week with most of the games being conference games.

A new wrinkle starts to unfold when teams begin to face familiar opponents. We have past data, but past history only goes so far in college football since there is a fast turnover rate.

How will USC QB Sam Darnold fare against Cal’s upgraded defense?

2016 NCAA Football – Week 2 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 13-11-1 last week with a few bad beats. I can’t beat myself up about it since Week 1 is always loaded with landmines of risk. I picked some games I should have stayed away from (Houston vs Oklahoma) and didn’t expect such poor outings from Tennessee and UCLA.

As I said before, Week 1 is full of risk, but the following week is loaded with value. You have to take what you learned in Week 1 and use it for your advantage. At the same time, there are times that you kind of have to go against all your information since betting lines are often swayed a little too much if a team outperforms preseason expectations or is underwhelming in Week 1.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick against the spread for all the big college football games on Saturday (September 10th, 2016) and a few Thursday games. We also picked five extra games as a bonus.
