2024 College Football: All-Name Team

This is one of my favorite posts to do every year, but due to a death in the family last year, I was unable to make a list last season. I found a bunch of fresh names, and some long time favorites.

What makes a great college football name?

A good litmus test is if it works as a potential pro wrestling name, it works in college football. It also works if a name sounds like a verb, phrase, a certain body part or just a bad ass football name that makes them sound tough.

We went through every team in the top two divisions in the NCAA. We went through ever single name and picked out the ones that were funny and some names we just wish we had.

2023 NCAA Football – Week 14 Betting Picks Against Spread

Last week, I had another middle-of-the-road week with a 12-12-1 record in Week 12.

We have some weird games on the schedule for Championship Week. Michigan faces a weird Iowa squad that has almost zero offense and lives via their outstanding defense. Also, Louisville faces Florida State, who lost their star QB Jordan Travis due to a gruesome lower leg injury.

One of the bigger games of the year seems to be a bit of an after-thought since Alabama hasn’t been as dominant as in past years. Can Georgia cover the near-touchdown point spread in the SEC Championship game?

2023 NCAA Football – Week 13 Betting Picks Against Spread

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

I am a bit tardy in posting my college football picks this week. I forgot that a handful of Friday games were taking place, but I am posting it at around 3pm, so I added the Oregon State/Oregon pick in the post.

This should be a fun weekend of games and I’m curious to see if any brawls will happen before, during or after the Ohio State/Michigan game.

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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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.
