***Virginia -6.5 vs Ga Tech In the Bronco Mendenhall era, Virginia has a positive ATS cover percentage (56%) as a home favorite. Virginia’s 417 yards (avg) per game is second best in all of division 1 football. Pair that with Georgia Tech’s mediocre pass defense and you have a recipe for a cover here. Since 2019, Georgia Tech is 4-5 (44%) ATS … [Read more...]
Middle Tennessee State -14.5 at UConn UConn got their season win over Yale last week and the Football Huskies are not winning two in a row. The only question is by how much they will lose and I believe it will be by a substantial margin. Middle Tennessee State’s offense flamed out at Liberty but prior to that game, the offense, under junior QB … [Read more...]
***UCF +21.5 at Cincinnati Central Florida has failed to cover in all of their games so far in 2021 – all as favorites. Now, they enter as 3 TD underdogs with a point spread that I feel has swung way too much in one direction as Cincinnati’s run of recent performances, in route to a #3 National ranking, has the public paying attention. … [Read more...]
***Syracuse +14 vs Clemson Clemson continues to burn money as their underwhelming 2-2 start has translated to an 0-4 ATS record. Syracuse is 4-1 ATS and they continue to be disrespected by odds makers – especially at home. The Orange got points and covered last week at the Carrier Dome vs. a strong Wake Forest team. They also handed visiting … [Read more...]
After a 10-4 record last week, here is a 4-pack of college football selections. Good luck! Syracuse +6 Old Dominion/Marshall OVER 63.5 UAB -4 Troy -5.5 … [Read more...]
***Oklahoma State -3.5 vs Baylor There was some luck involved in Baylor’s 3-point home win vs an overrated Iowa State team this past Saturday. Iowa State’s offense managed 479 total yards vs Baylor’s 282 and the Cyclones nearly doubled Baylor’s total first downs (27-15). Oklahoma State’s defense is top 20 in the NCAA for yards allowed … [Read more...]
***Notre Dame +6.5 vs Wisconsin Notre Dame QB Jack Coan faces his old team this Saturday as the Irish face Wisconsin at Soldier Field in Chicago. Some will criticize Notre Dame for “squeaking by” teams many think they should’ve blown out, however Coan’s consistency (8 TD vs 2 INT) in those games should be noted – close wins or not. … [Read more...]
***Charlotte -3 vs Middle Tennessee State Middle Tennessee State has thrown in two clunkers after their blowout win vs Monmouth in week one. After last week’s loss, Blue Raiders starting QB Bailey Hockman (transfer from NC State) hung up his cleats and left the team. 5-11, 185 lb. junior QB Chase Cunningham will now take over the signal … [Read more...]
***Appalachian State -7 vs Marshall Appalachian State’s defense is good enough (5.1 yds per play – equal to Alabama!) and you would expect the defense to be extra tough at home on a chilly weeknight at "The Rock" in Boone, NC. Since 2018, Appalachian State is 10-6 (62%) ATS in non-conference games. For Marshall, their offense is their … [Read more...]
***Carolina Panthers -8 at Houston Texans Both of these teams come into NFL week three at 2-0 ATS. However, the Texans will now go with rookie QB Davis Mills, who will be making his first NFL start against a very well coached Carolina team. The Texans offense looked interesting with veteran Tyrod Taylor under center, but handing the offense to a … [Read more...]
