2021 NFL Week 13 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 6-9 against the spread last week. 

I had a rough week and by far the worst showing of the season. I had a couple close losses, but those are still big, fat L’s at the pay window.

We have a rough idea which teams are in the playoff race and which teams that could soon pack it in the for the season. We could still see a few surprises though.

This time last month, it looked like the Dolphins were in the race for the #1 overall pick, but they’ve now won four games in-a-row heading into this week.

Who will win the shootout between the Chargers and Bengals?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 13 of the 2021 NFL season.

I went 12-13 against the spread last week.

We’ve made it to Rivalry Week. This is the final week with a full slate of games.

This weekend, Ohio State and Michigan meet for the 117th time.. Both teams are coming off blowout wins and Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud could leapfrog a few Heisman contenders with big performance in a marquee game.

2021 NFL Week 12 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 10-5 against the spread last week. 

I’ve had a couple up and down weeks recently, so it was nice to have big week heading into Thanksgiving.

Historically, I’ve done very well on Thanksgiving. I’ve had multiple three-team parlays hit over the years and I once had a streak of twelve-straight covers over the course of three Thanksgivings.

I hope I didn’t just jinx myself for bringing that up.

Can the Colts cover at home against Tom Brady?

2021 NCAA Football – Week 12 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 15-10 against the spread last week.

I had an alright week against the spread, but Purdue really let me down. They were playing so darn well and they just hit a wall against Ohio State. It was ugly and my hail may Purdue moneyline play was a lost cause by the end of the first quarter.

After a week of weak SEC games, there are a few solid games to watch this week. Arkansas at Alabama is one many are looking forward to, but the Razorbacks secondary could fold early.

Can Michigan State upset Ohio State on Saturday?

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 12 of the 2021-22 NCAA Football season (November 20th, 2021).

2021 NFL Week 11 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Jordan Howard dottedI went 6-8 against the spread last week. 

I’ve had a couple rough weeks after a strong first-half of the season. It was time to pivot and move around some of my personal team rankings.

After a week full of double-digit spreads, we only have two on the docket this week. It is a welcomed change as double-digit NFL spreads can be hard to handicap.

The Cowboys/Chiefs game is the marquee contest this week. Both teams are coming off blowout wins. Can the Chiefs cover at home?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 11 of the 2021 NFL season.

2021 NCAA Football – Week 11 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 11-13-1 against the spread last week.

I would have been down this week, but I was able to hit on a Purdue moneyline to keep me in the black.

There are some big games in the Big Ten this week. Purdue at Ohio State and Michigan at Penn State have Big Ten Championship-altering potential.

Can Oklahoma stay perfect on the year with a win at Baylor?

2021 NFL Week 10 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Baker Mayfield late 2019 dottedI went 7-7 against the spread last week. The late games on Sunday bailed me out or the week would have been a disaster.

We have had back-to-back weird weeks in the NFL. Hell, the Jets and Jaguars are playing pretty well right now, so that’s weird in itself.

We have five double-digit point spreads this week. The favorites have actually covered more double-digit spreads than they’ve failed this season.

Will the Bills rebound from last week’s close win over the Jaguars and cover against the Jets?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 10 of the 2021 NFL season.

2021 NCAA Football – Week 10 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 10-15 against the spread last week.

I was coming off one of my best weeks ever and last week took a chunk of those winnings.

College football games can become pretty crazy when the weather starts to get sloppy. We are definitely in that season and I expect the betting lines to be more difficult going forward.

I expect the Michigan State vs. Purdue game to be a fun watch. Purdue is playing better of late and the Spartans are coming off a huge win against Michigan.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 10 of the 2021-22 NCAA Football season (November 6th, 2021).

2021 NFL Week 9 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 6-9 against the spread last week. It was my first week under .500 this season. The late games really did a number on me.

The first week of Autumn weather always brings weird outcomes. Let’s hope last week’s strange games is a one-week occurrence.

There are some games with large point spreads on Thursday night and early Sunday, but the games tighten up during the late games.

Can Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes shake off his interceptions streak this week against the Packers?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 9 of the 2021 NFL season.

2021 NCAA Football – Week 9 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 17-8 against the spread last week.

I had my best betting week of the college football season. I started the season with a couple rough-to-average weeks, but have been racking up wins more down the stretch.

The Big Ten has some big games this week. Michigan at Michigan State, Penn State at Ohio State and Iowa at Wisconsin are all must-watch games.

I’m keeping an eye on Florida State at Clemson. It’s a must-win for Clemson as they’re struggling right now. I think Florida State has a shot at the upset.

2021 NFL Week 8 – Betting Picks Against Spread

Jimmy Garoppolo San Francisco 49ers dottedI went 9-4 against the spread in Week 7.

After going .500 in the early Sunday games, I ran the table the rest of the day.

We nearly have a full schedule of games with only two teams on bye. We also have a few double-digit point spreads (again) this week. We will be seeing more and more of those going forward. I’m curious to see if we break an all-time record for them due to the new 17-game season.

Can Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes bounce-back from a rough week and look like his old self against the Giants on Monday Night Football?

Can the Detroit Lions get their first win?

We pick every NFL game against the spread and throw out a few upsets in Week 8 of the 2021 NFL season.

2021 NCAA Football – Week 8 Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 14-11 against the spread last week.

I had another rough stretch during the early games on Saturday, but the Pac-12 pulled me above .500 and above.

Iowa had the worst defeat of the week when they were smoked by Purdue at home. It was surprising and few really had that one which would have been a huge moneyline win.

There aren’t any championship-altering games this week. We have some rivalry games like USC vs Notre Dame, which should be a fun watch.

We at ‘America’s White Boy’ pick 25 college football games against the spread in Week 8 of the 2021-22 NCAA Football season (October 23rd, 2021).
