OVERALL RECORD: 289-247-11 (53.9%)

2023 SEASON RECORD: 48-35-2 (57.8%)

Top Picks of the Week (All Times Central)

Georgia State at Georgia Southern -1 – Thursday 6:30pm

A Sun Belt Rivalry game! We are taking Georgia Southern as we expect them to tear State up through the air. One point isn’t enough.

Indiana +32 at #10 Penn State – 11am

Penn State is coming off an emotional game on the road against Ohio State where the offense did not get going at all. Expect a slow start where the Nittany Lions don’t cover.

South Carolina at Texas A&M UNDER 54 – 11am

The South Carolina offensive line has been horrid all year. Now they face a very talented Aggie defensive line. On the other side I don’t trust Texas A&M to score. Under all day.

West Virginia +7 at UCF – 11am

Yes, UCF played Oklahoma tough the week before. But getting a whole touchdown is ridiculous against a tough West Virginia team. UCF comes back to where they have been all year and don’t cover.

#1 Georgia -14 vs Florida – 2:30pm

Florida couldn’t stop Kentucky’s run game… they have no shot against Georgia.

#8 Oregon -6.5 at #13 Utah – 2:30pm

I’m nervous going against Utah when they’re at home because it is one of the greatest home field advantages in college football. But they are overrated coming off of a win against USC. I don’t trust them to move the ball on anyone (except USC).

Iowa State -2.5 at Baylor -2:30pm

Iowa State has been secretly on a roll beating Cincinnati by 20 points and TCU by 13 points. TGIS has been fading Baylor all year… we’re not stopping now.

Mississippi State at Auburn UNDER 42.5 – 2:30pm

Mississippi State just beat Arkansas 7-3. You know who else can’t move the ball? Auburn. UNDER.

Pittsburgh +20.5 at #14 Notre Dame – 2:30pm

TOO MANY POINTS. Pittsburgh has been playing better in the second half of the year after sitting Phil Jurkovec. The offensive line has too. Expect a slug fest.

Virginia +18.5 at Miami – 2:30pm

Miami at home coming off a big victory against Clemson. Their fans don’t show up for these type of games and neither does Miami. Virginia covers.

#24 USC at Cal +10.5 – 3pm

FADE USC. Lincoln Riley hasn’t been shown up to practice all week and this team is on quit watch.

#21 Tennessee -3.5 at Kentucky – 6pm

This Kentucky offense has struggled all year. Tennessee has a good enough defense to keep them in check. The Vols win.

#11 Oregon State at Arizona OVER 56.5 – 9:30pm

Since Noah Fifita has taken over for Arizona they have been scoring quite a bit of points. Oregon State has been successful on offense too. POINTS IN PAC-12 AFTER DARK.
