2023 NFL Week 16 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 7-7-2 against the spread during Week 15.

It was a back-and-forth week for me. I would get up by a game and then break even after the next slate of games.

Injuries are always a big issue at this point in ever NFL season. You have to keep an eye on the injury reports since there are a lot of banged-up quarterbacks right now. Also, some of the basement teams are rotating backup quarterbacks to finish the season. You will also see more double-digit point spreads than at any other point in the season (we have a few this week).

2023 NFL Week 15 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 9-4-2 against the spread during Week 14.

It was a solid week overall, but I got my picks up super late. The lines are well-adjusted at that point and it’s hard to get an edge up on them, so it was a nice surprise.

This week, there are a ton of tight point spreads. A lot of home favorite are at -3 and below. These games are notorious for being coinflips, so it could be a tricky week.

We have a full slate of games with sixteen games on Thursday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday.

2023 NFL Week 14 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 6-7 against the spread during Week 13.

I apologize for being so late with this week’s NFL picks. I’ve had a busy week and another project has taken up way too much of my free time.

We are almost back to a full slate of games, but we are getting to the point where Saturday games will happen soon. This week’s weird due to two Monday Night Football games, so keep an eye on the TV schedule as not all the games will happen on Sundays going forward.

Can the Eagles sweep the Cowboys this season?

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 NFL Week 13 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 9-6-1 against the spread during Week 12.

I didn’t go a perfect 3-0 on Thanksgiving, but got myself out to a nice 2-1 start. The favorites had a big week with twelve of the sixteen games being covered by the favorites. I feel this week will be favorite-heavy as well, but we shall see.

The Eagles have had a murderer’s row of opponents of late. I’m interested in seeing if they come into their game against the Niners a big banged up after facing the Cowboys, Chiefs and Bills over their last three games.

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 NFL Week 12 – Betting Picks Against Spread

I went 6-8 against the spread in Week 11.

I’ve historically done really well against the spread on Thanksgiving. I’ve swept the day many times over the years. I’m crawling into the holiday beaten up after a tough week. I hope to continue my Thanksgiving good luck on Thursday.

I worry about the Cincinnati Bengals going forward. QB Joe Burrow is gone for the season and his arm has played such a big part of their win-loss record. Early this season, Burrow wasn’t 100% and the team went on a losing streak. They need strong quarterback play for their offense to work. They could try to lean on RB Joe Mixon, but I’m afraid he’s past his prime.

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.
