2023 NCAA Football – Week 12 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I had another middle-of-the-road week with a 13-12 record in Week 11.

I’ve been streaky when it comes to West Coast teams this season. I started cold, but hit some nice Pac-12 parlays in October. I’m back to being lukewarm again. I hope to end the year strong with a few big games in the conference this weekend.

I would be aware that this week has been notorious for dreaded ‘trap games’ in the past. Many of the teams playing this week will be playing their rivals the next two weeks. On paper, there are some forgettable games on the schedule, but could end up being major if one of the top teams overlooks this week’s opponents.

2023 NFL Week 11 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-6-1 against the spread in Week 10.

Injuries are ballooning point spreads and we are seeing more double-digit advantages again this week. It’s becoming the normal as we near Thanksgiving. The bad teams are already looking at the upcoming draft class. I just assume teams like the Giants will see double-digit spreads (or near it), the rest of the season.

Will the change in play-calling duties help the Bills and Panthers this week?

Can QB Joshua Dobbs continue his hot streak for the Vikings?

2023 NCAA Football – Week 11 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I had a rough outing with a 10-13-2 record.

The early games really bent me over, but I was able to not make this a complete disaster with a sweep of a half-dozen late-Saturday night games.

We have some important games on the schedule this week. Michigan versus Penn State will get the most oxygen, but I would point out that the Tennessee/Missouri and Mississippi/Georgia contests could transform the eventual College Football Playoff race more. Ole Miss and Missouri are both very underrated teams.

2023 NFL Week 10 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 11-3 against the spread in Week 9.

I had my best week of the year and I feel like I have a pretty good grasp on a handful of teams. A lot of the marquee teams are on bye this week (Chiefs, Eagles), so a lot of the middle-of-the-road teams will get more action.

The Cincinnati Bengals continued their resurgence and Denver Broncos are officially in the under-the-radar category. They’ve covered against the Packers and Chiefs in their last two games.

Will the San Francisco 49ers rebound from their three-game outright losing streak?

2023 NCAA Football – Week 10 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I had a bounce-back performance with a 15-10 record.

It was nice to have a larger number in the positive for the first time in a couple weeks. There weren’t a lot of big marquee games last week, but there were some solid underdog plays that hopefully paid off for you guys.

The sleeper game this week could be Missouri at Georgia. The Tigers are an underrated team, and every time I’ve watched them this season, they’ve impressed me. I’m not saying they will beat Georgia outright, but I might put a couple jellybeans on the moneyline and pray.

2023 NFL Week 9 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 9-6-1 against the spread in Week 8.

I was once again perfect for all the Primetime games, but was subpar or average on Sunday afternoon. I still ended up positive for the week and I hope to build on this momentum.

After a rough start to the season, it appears that the Cincinnati Bengals are back playing like a possible Super Bowl contender. They have a big test this week as they face the Buffalo Bills.

How will the Vikings fare without starting QB Kirk Cousins?

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 NFL Week 8 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I 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.
