01-09-25 Notre Dame v. Penn State +2.5 Top 27-24 Loss -109 77 h 19 m Show

Date: Thursday, January 9, 2025 
Game Time: 7:30 pm ET 
How To Watch: ESPN 
Venue: Hard Rock Stadium, Miami Gardens, FL 
Teams: Notre Dame (13-1), Penn State (13-2) 
10-Unit bet on Penn State plus the 2.5 points. 

This line is going to trend in favor of Notre Dame based on the current market conditions. So, if you are getting this pick on Tuesday or Wednesday, I would recommend waiting to see if the line trends higher to as high as 2.5 or even 3.5 points. The line may not move either, so betting 50% preflop and then look to add the remaining 50% a few hours ahead of the kick-off is a solid strategy. 

Live Betting Strategies: Another option is to bet 75% of your 10-unit amount preflop and then look to add 25% more with PSU priced as a 5.5-point underdog during the first half of action OR if Notre Dame scored a TD first to make the score 7-0 or even 10-0 if ND made a field goal as the first score of the game. PSU has had a season, which they start out slow in the first quarter and then suddenly kick it into top gear. 

The following College Football Betting Algorithm has produced a 42-30 SU (58%) and 38-23-1 ATS record good for 68% winning bets over the past 45 years or since 1980. The requirements are: 

The game occurs in the postseason. 

Our team is priced between pick-em and a 6.5-point underdog. 

The opponent has covered the spread in each of their last four games. 

If the opponent has covered the spread nine or more of their last 10 games, our dogs have gone a highly profitable 10-5 SU and 11-4 ATS good for 73% winning bets. 

he stage is set for an epic showdown as the No. 6 Penn State Nittany Lions take on the No. 7 Notre Dame Fighting Irish in the Orange Bowl on January 9, 2025. This highly anticipated matchup will determine who advances to the national championship game. 

Team Statistics 

Penn State Nittany Lions: 

Record: 13-2 

Points Per Game: 33.7 

Points Against: 15.8 

Leading Rusher: Kaytron Allen (1,026 yards) 

Leading Receiver: Tyler Warren (1,158 yards) 

Leading Tackler: Jaylen Reed (92 tackles) 

Sacks: Abdul Carter (11 sacks) 

Notre Dame Fighting Irish: 

Record: 13-1 

Points Per Game: 38.8 

Points Against: 13.8 

Leading Rusher: Jeremiyah Love (1,057 yards) 

Leading Receiver: Beaux Collins (445 yards) 

Leading Tackler: Jack Kiser (69 tackles) 

Sacks: Xavier Watts (6 interceptions, 1 forced fumble) 

Key Matchups 

Rushing Attack: Both teams boast elite rushing attacks, with Penn State led by Kaytron Allen and Nicholas Singleton, and Notre Dame by Jeremiyah Love and dual-threat quarterback Riley Leonard. 

Defensive Strength: Penn State's defense, anchored by Abdul Carter, will face a tough challenge against Notre Dame's strong rushing attack. 

Injuries: Notre Dame has been dealing with injuries, including the loss of star defensive lineman Rylie Mills and cornerback Benjamin Morrison. Penn State will hope for the return of Abdul Carter, who is questionable with an arm injury. 

From the Predictive Model: My predictive model expects Penn State to gain more rushing yards, have more time of possession and contain the ND passing attack to less than 58% completions. Under head coach James Franklin, Penn State is 37-3 SU (93%) and 33-5-2 ATS for 87% winning bets that have covered the spread by an average 10.26 PPG when they have met or exceeded these performance measures. 

12-31-24 Penn State -11 v. Boise State Top 31-14 Win 100 8 h 47 m Show

Penn State vs Boise State 
10-Unit bet on Penn State –11 points. 

Penn State gas started slowly in nearly all their games this season. They fall behind early and then dominate in the second half. IN games this season in which they were tied or trailed at the end of the first quarter, they rallied to an 8-1 SU record but just 3-6 ATS. They are 5-2 SU and 1-6 ATS based on the closing line when they have been tied or trailed at the half. Penn State outscored their foes by 124 points in the second half in all 14 games and by 86 points in the games in which they were tied or trailed after the first quarter. 

Live Betting Strategy:  I am suggesting a preflop bet of between 60 and 80% of your 8-Unit bet amount and then look for Boise to get an early lead and then add the remaining amount on Penn State. The downside to this strategy is obviously if Penn State scores first and never trail. I suggest adding the remaining Penn State bet if Penn State’s defense holds Boise State’s offense to three or fewer first downs in their first two possessions and did not score any points. That price may be around 14.5 points in a tied game early in the first quarter, but well worth the look knowing Boise State is struggling to move the chains on offense given their terrific ground attack led by their running back Jeanty, who rushed for a historic 2,652 yards including 29 TDs.  

The following NCAAF sports betting algorithm that has gone 36-5 SU (88%) SU and 29-11-1 ATS for 73% winning bets since 2007. The requirements are: 

Bet on favorites priced between a 7.5 and 12.5-point favorite. 

The matchup is in a bowl game. 

The total is fewer than 60 points. 

The favorite has won the same or fewer games than the opponent. 

Double-digit favorites in the postseason that are ranked lower (better team) than the opponent, have gone 40-6 SU (87%) and 29-17 ATS for 63% winning bets since 2007. In the postseason, teams that forced 8 or more turnovers than the opponent’s defense and favored by double-digits have gone 13-1 SU and 10-4 ATS for 71.4% winning bets. 

Penn State's defense has been stellar this season, allowing just 253 yards per game and recording 33 sacks. They've also forced 18 turnovers, including three pick-sixes in their last game against SMU3. On the offensive side, Penn State averages 35 points per game, with quarterback Drew Allar completing 65% of his passes for 3,200 yards and 28 touchdowns3. 

Boise State, on the other hand, has a strong rushing attack led by Heisman Trophy finalist Ashton Jeanty. Jeanty has rushed for 1,882 yards after contact, averaging 4.8 yards per carry and forcing a missed tackle rate of 37.1%1. Quarterback Maddux Madsen has been efficient with a 62% completion rate and 22 touchdowns to just three interceptions. 

Key matchups to watch: 

Penn State's Defense vs. Ashton Jeanty: Jeanty is a beast, but Penn State's defense has been dominant, especially against the run. If they can contain Jeanty, it will be a long night for Boise State. 

Drew Allar vs. Boise State's Secondary: Allar has been accurate and has a strong arm, but Boise State's secondary has only allowed 200 passing yards per game. This will be a battle of Allar's arm against Boise State's coverage schemes. 

In conclusion, while Boise State has a strong team, Penn State's overall talent and depth, combined with their dominant defense, give them the edge to win this game by more than 17 points. Don't be surprised if we see a blowout in favor of the Nittany Lions. 

From the Predictive Model: My model is expecting PSU to score at least 28 points and have the same or fewer turnovers. IN past games dating back to the start of the 2015 season, Penn State is 63-1 SU and 49-11-4 ATS good for 82% winning bets over the past 10 seasons. The mode also expects Penn State to score 28 or more points, have more rushing yards, and have a minimum of 5-minute advantage in time-of-possession. In past games since 2015, Penn State is 43-1 SU and 37-6-1 ATS good for 86% winning bets when meeting or exceeding these performance measures.   

Boise State is just 5-16 SU and 4-15-2 ATS for 21% winning tickets when they have allowed 28 or more points and had fewer rushing yards than their opponent in games played since 2015.

12-26-24 Arkansas State v. Bowling Green -10 Top 38-31 Loss -107 5 h 23 m Show

Bowling Green vs Arkansas State 
9 ET, December 26 
68 Ventures Bowl, Mobile, Alabama 
8-unit bet on Bowling Green priced as a 10-point favorite. 

The following NCAAF sports betting algorithm that has gone 36-5 SU (88%) SU and 29-11-1 ATS for 73% winning bets since 2007. The requirements are: 

Bet on favorites priced between a 7.5 and 12.5-point favorite. 

The matchup is in a bowl game. 

The total is fewer than 60 points. 

The favorite has won the same or fewer games than the opponent. 

Both teams come into this game with identical 7-5 records, but the advanced stats tell a more detailed story. Bowling Green ranks 19th in points per game with 25.5, while Arkansas State sits at 108th with 24.0 points per game. Defensively, Bowling Green is even more impressive, allowing just 20.5 points per game, good for 21st in the nation, compared to Arkansas State's 32.4 points allowed per game. 

When it comes to advanced metrics, Bowling Green's defense shines even brighter. They rank 16th in the country in third-down defense, allowing conversions on just 33.11% of attempts. Arkansas State, on the other hand, struggles on third downs, converting just 38.41% of the time. 

Bowling Green's offense revolves around sixth-year senior quarterback Connor Bazelak, who ranks fourth among active quarterbacks in career passing yards. He led the MAC in completion percentage (67.1%) and adjusted yards per attempt (7.73) this season2. Bazelak has a 10:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio over his last seven games, and he'll be facing an Arkansas State defense that ranks 124th in yards per pass attempt allowed. 

12-21-24 SMU v. Penn State -8.5 Top 10-38 Win 100 20 h 60 m Show

SMU vs PSU 
8-Unit bet on PSU priced as 7.5-point favorite. 

The following NCAAF betting algorithm has produced a 21-3 SU and 17-7 ATS mark good for 71% winning bets over the past 10 seasons. The requirements are: 

Bet on favorites. 

That favorite scored 24 or more points in the first half of their last game. 

They are facing a foe that has scored 31 or more points in five consecutive games. 

Regardless of the market pricing our team as a favorite or dog, thsi system has gone 51-22-1 ATS for 70% winners over the past 10 seasons. If our team is priced as a favorite and playing in a bowl game or the CFP, they have gone 7-0 SU and 6-1 ATS over the past 10 seasons. 

One of the biggest battles will be between SMU's stout rushing defense and Penn State's dynamic duo of running backs, Kaytron Allen and Nicholas Singleton. SMU allows just 93.4 rushing yards per game, which is the lowest in program history2. Meanwhile, Allen and Singleton have been instrumental for Penn State, with Singleton rushing for 839 yards and Allen adding 822 yards. SMU has not had to face two elite running backs this season. Add in QB Drew Allar and the use of play action to free up TE Tyler Warren and you have a monumentally difficult offense to defend on every down.  

From the predictive model: My proprietary model expects PSU to score 34 or more points and have the same or fewer turnovers as SMU. In past games under Franklin, PSU is 38-1 SU and 38-4-2 ATS for 91% winning bets. SMU is 5-41 SU and 10-36-1 ATS when allowing 34 or more points and having the same or more committed turnovers since 2014 and 0-6 SUATS since 2021. 

12-20-24 Indiana +7.5 v. Notre Dame Top 17-27 Loss -115 104 h 47 m Show

Indiana vs Notre Dame 
8-Unit bet on Indiana priced as a 7.5-point underdog. 

I like a sprinkle of no more than 2-Units on the money line preflop. Also, holding that money line sprinkle to see if Notre Dame scores first or retakes the lead during the first half of action is preferred. 

The following NCAA betting algorithm has produced a 67-48 record and 68-46-1ATS record good 60% winning bets over the past 10 seasons. The requirements are: 

Bet on road teams. 

The road team scored 60 or more points in their previous game. 

They allowed 14 or fewer points in their previous game. 

If our road team scored 45 or more points in their previous game and the game is a bowl game, conference championship, or the college playoffs, they have gone an amazing 6-3 SU and 7-0-1 ATS for 100% winning bets since 2010.  

From the Predictive Model: My predictive model is expecting Indiana to score 27 or more points and have the same or fewer turnovers as Notre Dame. Indiana is 15-2 SU and 13-4 ATS good for 77% wining bets in games i which they scored 27 or more points and had the same or fewer turnovers since 2021.  

12-18-24 Western Kentucky +7.5 v. James Madison Top 17-27 Loss -115 6 h 58 m Show

Western Kentucky vs James Madison 
8-Unit Bet on WKU priced as a 7-point underdog.

Bet on a team that has lost to the spread by 55 or more points spanning their previous five games. 

That team is playing in a bowl game. 

Roca Baton Bowl Preview: Western Kentucky vs. James Madison 

The Roca Baton Bowl is set to feature an intriguing matchup between the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers and the James Madison Dukes on Wednesday, December 18, 2024, at FAU Stadium in Boca Raton, Florida. This will be the first time these two teams have faced each other on the gridiron1. 

Western Kentucky Hilltoppers 

Western Kentucky enters the bowl game with an 8-5 record after a tough loss in the Conference USA Championship game. The Hilltoppers have been consistent winners under head coach Tyson Helton, winning at least eight games in five of the last six seasons1. However, the team has been hit hard by the transfer portal, with 23 players entering since their last game. Notably, starting quarterback and C-USA Offensive Player of the Year, Caden Veltkamp, has entered the portal. Despite these challenges, Western Kentucky will rely on their strong passing attack led by Veltkamp, who threw for 2,806 yards and 23 touchdowns this season. 

James Madison Dukes 

James Madison comes into the bowl game with an 8-4 record under first-year head coach Bob Chesney. The Dukes have had a solid season, including key wins against North Carolina and Coastal Carolina1. However, they will be without their starting quarterback, Alonza Barnett III, who suffered an injury in the regular-season finale. This means James Madison will be starting third-string quarterback Billy Atkins, who has attempted only 46 passes in his career. The Dukes will likely lean heavily on their running game, with George Pettaway and Wayne Knight expected to play key roles. 

Key Matchups 

Western Kentucky's Passing Attack vs. James Madison's Pass Defense: Western Kentucky's strong passing attack will be tested against James Madison's top-ranked pass defense. 

James Madison's Running Game vs. Western Kentucky's Run Defense: With James Madison's quarterback situation uncertain, their running game will be crucial, especially against Western Kentucky's struggling run defense. 

Weather Conditions 

The game is expected to have thunderstorms before and during kickoff, with wind gusts over 20 mph, which could impact both teams' passing games. 

Transfer Portal News 

Western Kentucky: The Hilltoppers have seen a mass exodus of players to the transfer portal, including key starters like Caden Veltkamp and linebacker Darius Thomas, who has committed to Louisville. 

James Madison: The Dukes have also been impacted by the transfer portal, losing several players to other programs, but they have managed to maintain a solid roster. Again, the current price showing WKU as a 7-point underdog bas all of this news baked into the market. Just as all the news and rumors are baked into the price of a stock like Nvidia, or a commodity like Crude Oil or Bit Coin.  

12-14-24 South Alabama v. Western Michigan UNDER 57.5 Top 30-23 Win 100 56 h 12 m Show

Western Michigan vs South Alabama 
8-unit bet on the Under currently priced at 57.5 points. 

The following CFB betting algorithm has produced a 29-16 Under record good for 64% winning bets since 2019. The requirements are: 

Bet the Under in games priced between 57.5 and 70 points. 

The game takes place on a neutral field in December. 

One of the teams is coming off a win and covered the spread. 

If the opponent is also coming off a win and covered the spread, the Under has gone 16-4 for 8-% winning bets. 

12-07-24 Penn State +3.5 v. Oregon Top 37-45 Loss -105 28 h 27 m Show

3 Penn State vs 1 Oregon 
10-Unit Bet (5-10 grading) on PSU priced as a 3.5-point underdog. 

Betting on underdogs between pick-em and 4.5 points in a matchup o ranked teams in the top 10 and with the dog ranked lower (PSU is ranked 3rd and Oregon ranked 1st) and taking place on a neutral site has produced an exceptional 14-10 SU (58%) and 16-8 ATS record for 67% winning bets since 2006.  

Undefeated favorites playing in the conference championship game are 6-6 SU and 3-8-1 ATS (27%). When these undefeated teams failed to cover the spread, those losses were by an average of 8.9 points SU and 13.3 points ATS. In the losses by these undefeated juggernauts, they failed to run the ball averaging 113.3 yards per game and were outgained on the ground by a margin of 60.6 rushing yards. The winning teams playing against those undefeated teams averaged 174 rushing yards. Moreover, the losing undefeated teams threw an average of 39 passes completing 22.5 of them for 255.3 passing yards. Their foes outgained them through the air averaging 262.2 passing yards but on just 29.5 attempts and 18 of those completed. 

In these upset wins against undefeated teams, the team started fast and led at the half by an average of 11.7 points per game and shockingly outscored them in every quarter on average.  

The undefeated teams that led or were tied at the half went on to an impressive 36-6 SU (86%) and 27-14-1 ATS record (65.9%). So, it is imperative that PSU gets off to a solid start and controls the clock and the pace of play and I do believe they will get that accomplished.

Betting Odds and Totals 

Spread: Arizona State is a 2.5-point favorite 

Moneyline: Arizona State (-128), Iowa State (+106) 

Total: 49.5 points (Over/Under -110) 

Key Matchups 

Arizona State's Offense vs. Iowa State's Defense: The Sun Devils have a strong passing attack but will be without their star wide receiver Jordyn Tyson due to injury. Iowa State's defense, known for its low completion rate allowed, will be a tough challenge2. 

Iowa State's Offense vs. Arizona State's Defense: The Cyclones have a potent passing offense, but their quarterback Rocco Becht has struggled in the Red Zone. Arizona State's defense will need to capitalize on this weakness. 

Time of Possession: Both teams are nearly identical in time of possession, which could make ball control a crucial factor in the game's outcome.

11-30-24 Texas -4.5 v. Texas A&M Top 17-7 Win 100 9 h 57 m Show

Texas vs Texas A&M 
7:30 ET, November 30, 2024 
10-Unit bet on the Texas Longhorns priced as 4.5-point favorites.  

Playing on the road and getting a win in the SEC conference has always been a very difficult task having to play in some of the largest stadiums in the world. Texas A&Ms’ Kyle Stadium is the largest in the SEC and any team must play well with few miscues to leave with a win. Texas is ranked #3 and their defense is the most dominating defense in college football this season. One of the keys to a win on the road in the SEC is to score first and get the frenzied crowd to be calmer. Afterall, Kyle Stadium is nicknamed the 12th man and playing against 11 is always better. 

Playing a road game at night (after 6:00 ET) is the most difficult venue. However, home SEC dogs in November and playing after 6 ET have gone just 15-35 SU (30%) and 19-29-2 ATS (40%) since 2015. If the home dog is priced below 10 points, they have gone 10-21 SU and 10-20-1 ATS for 33% winning bets since 2015.  

From the Predictive Model: My model projects an 86% probability that Texas will score 28 or more points, allowing 20 or fewer points and have the same or fewer turnovers in this game. In past games in which Texas met these performance measures has seen them go an impressive 33-0 SU and 29-4 ATS for 88% winning bets since 2015. 

11-30-24 Maryland v. Penn State -25 Top 7-44 Win 100 5 h 56 m Show

Maryland vs Penn State 
3:30 ET, Saturday 
8-Unit bet on Penn State priced as 24.5-point home favorites.  

Today is Senior Day in Happy Valley and with the CFP on the line, PSU will be in high gear and not take the 4-7 Terrapins lightly.  Quarterback Drew Allar has been highly consistent and saved the season with a come from behind drive at USC earlier this year. The offense has opened the vertical routes this season and with his pro-caliber arm, Allar has been able to take a huge step forward this season. Allar has a 171 QBR, which is significantly higher than the 135 he posted last season. 

The Big Ten features four teams in the latest CFB poll and all four are led by great defensive units. PSU ranks second-best in the conference allowing 14.6 PPG while OSU is the best allowing 10.7 PPG. PSU ranks 4th averaging 32.4 PPG for a scoring differential of 17.8 PPG, which is nearly what Maryland scores on offense. Maryland ranks second to last allowing 29.2 PPG and is scoring only 17 PPG this season and has posted a terrible –4 PPG scoring differential.

Maryland's Offense vs. Penn State's Defense: Maryland's senior wide receiver Tai Felton has been a standout player this season, leading the Big Ten with 92 catches for 1,097 yards and nine touchdowns. He will be a focal point for Penn State's secondary4. 

Penn State's Running Game: Despite losing starting right tackle Anthony Donkoh to a long-term injury, Penn State's running game remains strong. Running backs Nicholas Singleton and Kaytron Allen, along with tight end Tyler Warren, will be key players to watch4. 

From the Predictive Model: My model projects an 86% probability that PSU will score 32 or more points in this contest. PSU is 126-2 SU (98%) and 92-33-3 ATS for 74% winners when scoring 32 or more points since 1980. In addition, PSU is 42-0 SU, 29-11-2 ATS (73%) when priced as a double-digit favorite and scoring 32 or more points under James Franklin.  

PSU is expected to allow 17 or fewer points in this game and accounts for a late score by Maryland after Franklin removes the starters. So, PSU is 50-0 SU and 35-13-2 ATS when priced as a double-digit favorite and allowing 17 or fewer points under James Franklin.

Since 1980, this has been one of the best rivalries in college football. Notre Dame is 24-18-1 SU and 20-22-1 ATS in these games. When Notre Dame has been ranked in the top 10 of the polls, USC has gone 3-3 SU and 5-1 ATS since 1997.  

From the predictive model: USC is projected to have an 80% probability of gaining 400 or more total yards and outgaining Notre Dame in this game. They also have a 77% probability that they will contain Notre Dame to 350 or fewer yards. USC is 17-0 SU and 15-2 ATS FOR 88% Winning bets when gaining 375 or more yards and allowing 350 or fewer yards since 2018. The records are the same if USC gained 400 or more total yards. USC is 7-3 SUATS against Notre Dame where they had the same or fewer turnovers since 2005. 

Historical Context 

This rivalry has seen some incredible moments over the years. One of the most memorable games was in 1974, when USC made a historic comeback against Notre Dame. Trailing 24-0 at halftime, the Trojans scored 55 points in the second half to win 55-24. This game is still talked about as one of the greatest comebacks in college football history. 

The rivalry also features the Jeweled Shillelagh trophy, awarded to the winner each year. The trophy is adorned with an emerald shamrock for Notre Dame and a ruby Trojan head for USC. 

Key Matchups 

Notre Dame's Defense vs. USC's Offense: Notre Dame boasts the No. 4 ranked defense in the country, allowing just 15 points per game. They will be tested by USC quarterback Jayden Maiava, who has been solid in his last two starts. 

USC's Red Zone Offense: The Trojans struggled in the red zone against UCLA, scoring only nine points on nine plays inside the five-yard line. They will need to improve this aspect to have a chance against Notre Dame's stout defense.

Indiana Hoosiers 

The Hoosiers have been a surprise package this season, boasting a perfect 7-0 record under first-year head coach Curt Cignetti. Indiana's offense has been particularly impressive, ranking first in success rate (60%) and second in EPA/Play. However, they will be without starting quarterback Kurtis Rourke, who is recovering from thumb surgery. Backup Tayven Jackson, a transfer from  
Tennessee and a product of Center Grove High School in Greenwood, Indiana, will get the start. He is a consensus 4-star recruit and ranked 7th top pro-style quarterback, and with the skill position players on the offense there will not be any decline in the offensive performance. 

Advanced Metrics: 

Success Rate: 60% (1st in FBS) 

EPA/Play: 0.40 (2nd in FBS) 

Passing Efficiency: 74.5% completion rate (1st in FBS) 

Rushing Touchdowns: 28 (2nd in FBS) 

Washington Huskies 

The Huskies have had a mixed season, currently standing at 4-3 overall and 2-2 in Big Ten play. They have struggled on the road, with a winless record away from  
Husky Stadium. Washington's defense has been a bright spot, ranking 16th in scoring defense and26th in SP+. However, their offense has been inconsistent, averaging just 24.1 points per game. 

First year head coach Jedd Fisch has had the difficult task of rebuilding a team that took a huge toll form the transfer portal. Only two players on offense and four players on defense returned from last year’s team. He does have a returning quarterback but had to build a new offensive line, which is a team within itself having to learn to work together and build strong chemistry. That takes time and not just a few weeks.  

Advanced Metrics: 

Scoring Defense: 17.0 points per game (16th in FBS)

Pass Efficiency Defense: 98.2 rating (3rd in FBS) 

Passing Yards per Game:  (260.0 yards per game) 

Key Matchups 

Indiana's Offense vs. Washington's Defense: Indiana's high-powered offense will be tested by Washington's stout defense. The Hoosiers have scored  
more than 40 points in six straight games, but Washington's pass efficiency defense ranks  
third in the nation. The team returned 10 of 11 offensive players and all 11 defensive players from last year’s team. 

Washington's Offense vs. Indiana's Defense: The Huskies will need to improve their offensive output to keep up with Indiana. Washington's quarterback Will Rogers has thrown for 1,820  
yards and 13 touchdowns, but the Hoosiers' defense has been solid against the run and has  
generated a lot of sacks. 

More Analytics 

As noted, the Hoosier’s are having a historic season, but no regression is expected from this team. In fact, teams that have scored 40 or more points in each of their last 6 games and priced as a home favorite that is taking on a conference foe have gone 35-3 SU and 23-15 ATS for 61% winning bets since 1988. However, one team, Wyoming, was on that 6-game streak of 40 or more points per game in 1988 and then the next team occurred in the 2002 season.  

Betting on home favorites between 5.5 and 9.5-points from week 9 on and facing a foe fresh off a double-digit loss to a conference foe has produced an exceptional 31-11 SU and 28-14 ATS mark for 67% winning bets over the past 5 years. 

Washington is 1-9 ATS in weeks 5 through 9 over the past two seasons. 

The Predictive Model: My predictive model expects Indiana to score at least 35 points and gain at least 450 total yards and have the same of fewer turnovers. In past games since 1980, Indiana is 91-2 SU and 87-23-3 ATS when scoring 35 or more points; 13-3 SU and 15-1 ATS for 94% winning bets spanning the past 5 seasons. Since 1980, Indiana is 37-12 SU and ATS for 76% winning bets when scoring 35 or more points and having the same or fewer turnovers.

USC vs Maryland 
4 ET | FS1 | SECU Stadium., College Park, MD 
10-Unit bet on Maryland priced as 7.5-point underdogs. 

USC is coming off a near upset win over No. 3 Penn State losing in overtime by three points and after leading deep into the game by double-digits. Teams that lost at home by four or fewer points to a conference foe that was ranked in the top10 and are now on the road and priced as a 3 to 9.5-point favorite are 1-8 SU and 0-9 ATS. 

The following CFB betting algorithm has gone 32-56 SU (36%) and 60-27-1 ATS good for 69% winning bets over the past 10 seasons. The requirements are: 

Bet on dogs priced between 4.5 and 11.5 points. 

That dog is coming off two consecutive double-digit losses against conference opponents. 

The game occurs between weeks 5 and 9. 

If the game total is 40 or more points these dogs have barked quite loudly posting a 22-27 SU record (45%) and 33-14-2 ATS (70%) over the past 10 seasons. If the team is at home and with any total price, they have gone 15-34 SU and 34-15 ATS for 69% winning bets. 

From the Predictive Model: The predictive model is calling for Maryland to win the turnover battle and have a 5 or greater-minute advantage in time-of-possession. IN past games in which they met these performance measures has seen them go 18-3 (86%) and 16-5 ATS (76%) and if playing at home they have gone 10-0 SU and 9-1 ATS for 90% winning bets. 

Mike Locksley is in his 10th year at Maryland and is 3-3 on the season. An upset win over a storied program like USC would enhance their chances of going to a popular bowl game as long as they can find a way to win two more games in a difficult second half of their season. They have two home games remaining against Minnesota and Iowa and both are games they can win. They face No. 2 Oregon on the road in week 11 and then at No. 3 Penn State in the season finale. So, the team knows this is a game they have to play as if it is their bowl game, and they are catching USC in a difficult situation as mentioned above.  

USC is 0-5 ATS priced as a favorite between 3.5 and 10 points. USC head coach Lincoln Riley is 2-8 ATS after covering the spread in two of his last three games.

Western Kentucky vs Sam Houston State 
7 ET |  
8-Unit bet on Sam Houston State priced as a 2.5-point favorite. 

SHST BearKats (Spelling is correct) are 5-1 and 5-1 ATS on the season and favored in this game for the third time this season. They started the season with a 34-14 blowout of Rice priced as a 9.5-point underdog, then in week 5 they took down Texas State priced as a 10—point underdog. So, they are playing with increased confidence each week and now taking on a Hilltoppers team that is 4-2 and 4-1 ATS for the season.  They lost 63-0 to Alabama as a 33.5-point underdog but bounced back with their own 31-0 shutout win over Eastern Kentucky. Their other loss was by one point, 21-20 andpriced as an 8-point underdog to Boston College in Week 5. 

This is a showdown midway through the season as both teams are 2-0 and the winner will be tied with the Liberty Flames at 3-0 in Conference USA action. With a win SHST becomes bowl eligible, which is an impressive turnaround from a 3-9 record last season, which was their first ever as a member of the 134-team FBS division. K.C. Keeler has his team playing well and getting better each week. 

The following CFB betting algorithm has gone 52-29 SU (64%) and 52-27-2 for 66% winning bets over the past 10 seasons. The requirements are: 

Bet on any team that is priced between the 3’s (3-point favorite to a 3-point dog). 

The opponent they face has covered the spread in each of their previous four games. 

If our team is playing at home and taking on a conference foe, they have gone a highly profitable 23-12 SU and 24-9-2 ATS for 73% winning bets. 

From the predictive model: SHST is projected to score 28 or more points in this game and have the same or fewer turnovers. In past games in which the Hilltoppers allowed 28 or more points and had the same or more turnovers have seen them go just 2-18 SU and 4-15-1 ATS good for 79% winning bets.

The decisive factor is that if the favorite lost to their rival in the previous season they bounce back with a huge 11-0 record and 10-1 ATS good for 91% winning bets over the past 10 seasons.

8-Unit bet on Jax State priced as 20.5-point favorites. 

The following CFB betting algorithm has gone 28-3 SU (90%) and 21-9 ATS good for 70% winning bets over the past 15 seasons. The requirements are: 

Bet on a team that has a yards per game differential between –50 and 50 yards per game. 

The opponent has won 25% or fewer of their games. 

The opponent has been outgained by an average of 100 or more YPG. 

Our team is coming off two consecutive games gaining 475 or more total yards in each one. 

This game is taking place at AmFirst Stadium in Jacksonville, Florida and weather conditions will be potentially very bad and because of Hurricane Milton closing in on the Tampa Bay and Sarasota area this game could be cancelled. Safety is first, with this historic and catastrophic hurricane cutting an 800-mile slice across the middle of the state.  

JAX State ranks 22nd nationally averaging 204 rushing yards per game and will dominate a NMST defense that ranks 133rd nationally allowing an average of 277 rushing yards per game. So, no matter how bad the weather conditions are tonight, there is just no feasible way that the JAX State ground attack will be contained.

Navy vs Air Force 
Noon ET | CBS/Paramount+ 
Falcon Stadium, USAF Academy 
10-Unit bet on the Falcons priced as 9.5-point underdogs. 

Live Betting optional Strategy: The Under in the Armed Forces games has gone 86-20-2 for 81% winning bets since 2006 and every season has posted a profit. There will be a season where the Over will win the money, but until that happens there is no reason to consider the Over bet and there is just not a number low enough to get me off of playing the Under in these matchups. So, if this game somehow gets off to a faster than expected start and you see the total priced at 42 or more points bet no more than a 5-unit amount on the Under. 

The last time these matchups exceeded 40 points in total was back in the COVID pandemic when Navy and Air Force combined for 47 points on October 13, 2020. 

The following NCAAF betting algorithm has gone 18-22 SU and 27-10-3 ATS for 73% winning bets since 2015. The requirements are: 

Bet on home dogs priced between 4.5 and 10 points. 

The dog committed no more than a single turnover in their previous game. 

The opponent is coming off two straight games where they had fewer turnovers than their opponents. 

If our favorite is undefeated on the season, these home pups become quite fierce posting a 9-11 SU record and a 15-4-1 ATS mark for 79% winning bets. 

From the predictive model: We will be looking for the Air Force to have the same or fewer turnovers and to gain 275 or more rushing yards. In past games in which AF met or exceeded these projections has seen them go 70-12 SU and 57-24-1 ATS for 70% winning bets. If they commit 2 or fewer turnovers, they have gone 68-12 SU and 56-23-1 ATS good for 71% winning bets. If they hold their foes to 15 or more offensive yards-per-point ratio they have gone 56-3 SU and 43-16 ATS for 73% winning bets.

Illinois vs Penn State 
7:30 ET | NBC 
Beaver Stadium, University Park, PA 
10-Unit Bet on Penn State minus 17.5 points. 

Two ranked conference rivals and the home team is favored by almost 20 points. So, the market is clearly telling us who the better team is and by nearly three TDs better. No. 19 Illinois travels to Happy Valley to take on No. 8 Penn State in a game set to start at 7:30 and white-out conditions. That’s not snow conditions, of course, but the 112,000 fans in attendance, who have been tailgating all day. It has been estimated that there are more people in the fields surrounding the Stadium than in the Stadium once the game starts. It is truly a remarkable venue to experience when it is a white-out or a stripe-out occasion.  

Penn State is coming off a BYE week and this is certainly great news for them as under head coach James Franklin they are 21-6 SU and ATS when the game is in the prime-time schedule. The clincher here is that when PSU has been favored in these situations, they have gone 18-0 SU and 15-3 ATS covering the spread by an average of 14 points per game. 

The following betting algorithm has gone 45-1 SU (98%) and 30-15-2 ATS for 67% winning bets. 

Bet conference favorites of 17.5 or more points. 

That favorite is ranked in the top-10 of the latest AP poll. 

The foe is ranked between 11 and 25 in the most recent AP poll. 

 
If the game occurs from week 5 to the end of the season, these favorites have gone 42-1 SU (98%) and 29-14 ATS for 69% winning bets.  

From the predictive model: My predictive models are expecting Penn State to score 31 or more points and hold Illinois to fewer than 300 offensive yards. In past home games under James Franklin, the Lions are 22-0 SU and 17-3-2 ATS for 85% winning bets when meeting or exceeding these performance measures. Illinois is 0-15 SU and 4-11 ATS when gaining less than 300 total yards in a road game and allowing 31 or more points.

The game is a conference matchup. 

The game occurs from week 5 to the end of the regular season. 

The road team is playing with revenge. 

The bettor consensus for this game is on K-State all week but when the line hit 5.5 last night and with the number of tickets bet at 72% and rising and the handle at 58% and dropping is one of many reasons I have added this game to the card.

The predictive model sees South Alabama getting out to a fast start in this game so betting 4-Units on them +3.5 or 3-points for the first half and then 4-Unit on them +7 points for the full game is an alternative strategy to consider betting. 

Betting on underdogs between 2 and 6 points using the first half line that are outgaining their foes by 1.0 or more yards per play and are coming off a game in which they gained 475 or more yards have gone 42-14 ATS for 75% winning bets over the past five seasons.

The following NCAA Football betting algorithm has gone 158-52 straight-up (SU) and 136-72-2 against the spread (ATS) for 65.4% winning bets over the past 15 seasons. The requirements are: 

Bet on road teams. 

The road team has allowed 17 or fewer points in each of their last two games. 

The opponent is coming off a 17 or more-point loss.  

If the game is a conference showdown and the road team is favored by double-digits they have gone on post a 72-6 SU and 53-25 ATS for 68% winning bets over the past 15 seasons and a highly profitable 44-4 SU and 36-12 ATS mark good for 75% winning bets over the past 10 seasons and not a single season that has not been profitable.  

I do not like laying this amount of chalk with any road team, but we are talking about the best team in the nation and the best program in college football for the past five seasons.  

Here is a second simple to understand betting algorithm that has gone 57-23 ATS for 71% winning bets and a highly profitable 40% ROI since 2020. The requirements are: 

The team has the same quarterback from the previous season. 

The opponent has a new quarterback this season. 

The team has allowed fewer than 200 yards in each of their last two games. 

The Predictive Model Projections: The predictive model is forecasting that Georgia will score 35 or more points, will have the same or fewer turnovers as Kentucky, and will rush the ball more times than they pass. In past games spanning the past five seasons, Georgia is 38-0 SU and 24-13-1 ATS for 65% winning bets when scoring 35 or more points; they are 18-0 SU and 16-2 ATS for 89% winning bets when scoring 35 or more points, posting more rushes than passes and having the same or fewer turnovers.

Boston College vs Missouri 
12:45 ET |  
8-Unit Bet on Missouri currently priced as a 14.5-point favorite. 

Let’s start with the NCAAF betting algorithm that has produced a 180-40 SU and 126-88-6 ATS record for 59% winning bets over the past 10 seasons. The requirements are: 

Bet on home or neutral site favorites of three or more points. 

Both teams are ranked in the Top 25. 

The game is part of the regular season. 

If the guest has covered the spread by 25 or more points over their last two games (Exceeded market expectations significantly) our home favorite has gone 28-3 SU and 21-9-1 for 70% winning bets. 

Missouri head coach Eliah Drinkwitz has nine returning starters including his quarterback. Last season they played 11 teams that played in a bowl game, and they defeated 10 of those foes. Their offense has sputtered in the first two weeks but having a BC squad that has shocked two opponents will get their full attention. Keep an eye on WR Luther Burden III, who is fast becoming a first round draft pick and future NFL superstar. If there are any prop bets for him in today’s game the OVER with some pizza money is in order. 

The Predictive Model Projections: The predictive model is expecting Missouri to score 31 or more points and/or gain at least 1.1 or more yards per play than BC gains. In past games where Missouri met or exceeded this performance measure in home games has seen them go 21-0 SU and 16-5 ATS for 76% winning bets over the past 10 seasons.

Oklahoma State vs Tulsa

ESPN2 | Chapman Stadium, Tulsa, OK 
8-unit bet on Tulsa priced as an 18.5-point underdog. 

In each of the past 9 consecutive seasons I have had at least one underdog of 17.5 or more points win the game outright and in 2022 I had five of these massive dogs pull off the shocker. No one knows when these monumental upsets will occur. What i do know is that if you play these big barking pups each time and include a sprinkle on the money line you will add a significant amount of profits to your season-long bottom line. 

The following NCAA Football betting algorithm has gone 43-50 straight-up (SU) and 58-33-2 against the spread (ATS) for 64% winning bets over the past 20 seasons. The requirements are: 

Bet against any team coming off a win. 

That team allowed 600 or more total yards in that win. 

That team committed fewer turnovers than their previous opponent. 

If the game has a posted total of 50 or more points and that team above is favored by 11.5 or more points, fading then has produced a 18-7-1 ATS record for 72% winning bets. 

The Predictive Model Projections: The predictive model is forecasting that Tulsa will score 27 or more points and convert at least 40% of their third down attempts. In past games in which Tulsa met or exceeded these projections has led to a 5-5 SU record and a perfect 10-0 ATS record.

8-Unit Bet on Arizona currently priced as a 7-point underdog. 

Let’s start with the NCAAF betting algorithm that has produced a 44-76 SU and 70-47-3 ATS record for 60% winning bets over the past 10 seasons. The requirements are: 

Bet on road underdogs priced between 3.5 and 9.5 points. 

They had a winning record last season (bowl team). 

They are coming off a win priced as the favorite but failed to cover the spread. 

The game occurs in the first six weeks of the season. 

The second betting algorithm supporting Arizona has gone 40-23-2 ATS for 64% winning bets over the past 25 seasons and the requirements are: 

Bet on road dogs priced between pick-em and 9.5 points. 

They are coming off a win. 

In that win they failed to cover the spread by not even scoring enough points to exceed how much of a favorite they were in that game. 

They are facing an undefeated foe. 

So, Arizona was priced as a 43-point favorite and won the game 22-10. They failed toscore the betting line by 21 points, which is a quite rare result in college football. In fact, there have been just 6 games since 1996 that have seen a team win and failed by 21 points to equal their betting line. Moreover, teams that failed by 21 or more points to equal their betting line have gone 8-11 SU and 0-19 ATS in those games. Following these situations these teams have posted a 10-7 SU record and 10-7 ATS mark.  

The Predictive Model Projections: The predictive model is forecasting that Arizona will score 28 or more points and will gain 0.75 or more yards-per-play than K-State. In past games spanning the past five seasons, Arizona is 45-23 SU and 42-24-2 ATS fof64% winning bets when scoring 28 or more points; they are 22-7 SU and 19-10 ATS for 65.5% winning bets when they outgained their foes by 0.75 or more yards per play; 17-2 SU and 15-4 ATS for 79% winning bets when they have scored 28 or more points and outgained their foes by at least 0.75 yards per play.

Gesa Field, Pullman, WA 
8-Unit Bet on the Texas Tech +2.5 points 

The Red Raiders are coming off a big-time scare as they needed overtime to defeat Abeline Christian 52-51 priced as a whopping 31.5-point favorite. That has been a very rare situation, but if you have been a log-time subscriber you already know I have had at least one underdog of 17.5 points that has won straight-up. Of course, I never know when those monster upsets will occur, but it is always rewarding when we nail one of them. 

I think there has been an overreaction to the the near historic loss that Texas Tech overcame last week.  That type of game will get their attention, and you can bet the coaching staff has been in their players’ faces all week. 

This Situational CFB Betting Algorithm has gone 8-7 SU and 10-5 ATS and is as rare as the outcome of last week’s game. 

Bet on road underdogs. 

The dog is coming off a home win. 

They won the game by four or fewer points priced as a –24 or more-point favorite. 

They are taking on a non-conference foe. 

If the game occurs in week 2 these road teams have bounced back with a 4-5 SU and 7-2 ATDS mark good for 78% winning bets. 

My predictive model projects that TT will score at least 30 points and in past games since 2019 they are 24-10 SU and 26-8 ATS for 77% winning bets. WSU is just 3-18 SU and 5-16 ATS for 24% winning bets when they have allowed 31 or more points in games played over the past 5 seasons.

Wyoming vs Arizona State 
8-Unit bet on the Wyoming Cowboys getting 6.5 points.  

The following NCAAF betting algorithm has produced a 92-49-2 ATS record good for 65% winning bets over the past 20 seasons. The requirements are: 

The game is played in the regular season. 

The difference between the money bet (handle) and the percentage of tickets is between 11 and 65%.  

The line movement from opening to closing price is between –0.5 and –9.5 points. 

The team is the visitor. 

The spread percentage is between 24 and 40%. 

So, we have a situation in the markets where the percentage of money bet less the percentage of tickets bet shows that the handle percentage is 11 to 65% more than the tickets percentage. The difference from opening to closing price has worked against the team we are betting on.  Currently the line has moved only a half point from +7 to +6.5 points and only 33% of the tickets but 62% of the money is on the Cowboys. 

08-31-24 Clemson v. Georgia -11.5 Top 3-34 Win 100 23 h 58 m Show

No. 14 Clemson vs No. 1 Georgia 
Noon ET, August 31, 2024 | ABC/ESPN+ 
10-Unit Bet on Georgia priced at 12-point favorites. 

3-Unit Pizza-Money bet Under Clemson’s team total 

Consider betting 70% of your 10-Unit bet on Georgia preflop and then look to add 15% on Georgia at –10.5 points and 15% more on Georgia at –7.5 points.  

I have learned and profited from this week 1 matchups involving two ranked teams over the years and now this one looks quite string. Remember to bet with your head and not over it. These 10-Unit 5% Max Bets have lost 33% ATS of the time over the past five football seasons. No one knows if the bet is going to win on any given day – confident bets are different than being Nostradamus – but I rely on the fact that they have hit at great winning percentages over 5+ seasons and that by the end of the season we have reason to believe that significant profits will be made again. 

In week 1 of the regular season and with both teams playing their first game, both are ranked in the AP preseason poll and the difference between these ranks is between 1 and 19, the higher ranked team has gone 28-19 ATS for 60% winners. So, Georgia is ranked #1 and Clemson #14 for a difference of 13.  

In week 1 and 2 matchups of ranked teams, the favorites priced between –3 and –17.5 points that are playing at home or on a neutral field have gone 37-22-1 ATS for 63% winning bets over the past 20 seasons; in Week 1 action they have gone 24-12 ATS for 67% winning bets.  

From the Predictive Model 

We are expecting Georgia to score 28 or more points and have the same or fewer turnovers than Clemson. In past games played at home or on a neutral field Georgia is 25-0 SU and 19-5-1 ATS when they have scored 28 or more points and had the same or fewer turnovers spanning the past three seasons. Since the arrival of Kirby Smart, Georgia is 52-2 SU and 38-15-1 ATS for 72% winning bets since 2016 when scoring 28 or more points and having the same or fewer turnovers. 

Clemson is an anemic 1-6 and 0-7 ATS in games played on the road or a neutral field where they allowed 28 or more points and had the same of more turnovers than the foe spanning the past three seasons. Under Dabo Swinney, the Tigers are just 14-24 SU and 9-29 ATS for 24% winners when allowing 28 or more points and having the same or more turnovers since 2008. 

The predictive model grades this a 10-Unit 5% Max bet with an 84% probability that the performance measures identified above will occur in the game. 

Coach Smart is in his ninth season and is 94-16 SU and 70-43 ATS and this has been accomplished in the SEC Conference. In a somewhat rare situation, he returns 7 starters on both offense and defense and had the top-ranked recruiting class. This is rare because over the last two seasons, he has sent 25 players to the NFL. However, this season he has his returning starting quarterback Carson Beck, who is coming off a 13-1 campaign and a Archie Maning award finalist.  He led the Bulldogs to a 5-1 SUATS record when facing Top-25 opponents. Since Smart’s arrival, Georgia has gone 28-10 and 27-11 ATS for 71% winning bets when facing a ranked foe either at home or on a neutral field.  
 
Good Luck to Us and remember always bet with your head and never over it and may all the wins be yours. 

01-08-24 Washington +5 v. Michigan Top 13-34 Loss -105 8 h 56 m Show

Washington Huskies vs Michigan Wolverines
NRG Stadium, Houston, TX
7:30 PM EST | ESPN
8-Unit bet on Washington plus the 4.5 points and is valid if they remain the underdog, but I do not see this line moving if at all ahead of kickoff.

With a total that is already in the mid-50’s, there is reason to believe scoring volatility will be present and that there may be several lead changes along the way. So, consider betting 70% of your amount preflop and then look to add 15% at Washington +6.5 and 15% more at Washington +7.5points during the first half of action. Another consideration is to bet 70% preflop and then look to add 30% more if Michigan scores the first TD of the game or retakes the lead during the first half of action. I also like a pizza money size bet on Washington’s team total over 24.5 points.

This is just the second team from the PAC-12 to make it to the CFP championship game. On January 12, 2015, Oregon faced off against Ohio State in the first CFP Championship game and lost 42-20 as 6-point favorites. Current Philadelphia Eagles backup QB Marcus Mariota was the Heisman Trophy winner along with the Walter Camp Player of the Year, Maxwell Award, Johnny Unitas Golden Arm, and AP Player of the Year awards. Ohio State’s DL Joey Bosa was the only Buckeye to earn Consensus All-American that season. Oregon was 13-1 with one conference loss while Ohio State was 13-1 under Urban Meyer having just one loss losing in Week 2 on the road at Virginia Tech 35-21 as 10.5-point favorites. A little history of the only PAC-12 vs Big Ten Championship game as the rest have been dominated by the SEC Conference.

Underdogs of 6.5 or fewer points are 3-4 SU and 5-2 ATS for 71% in the Championship game. The first five Championship games saw a dog of 6.5 or fewer points cover the spread. When the dog has covered the Over has gone 4-1.

Betting on underdogs using the money line that are priced between +150 and +300 invovling a matchup of team that both average 1.25 or fewer turnovers per game, after the 8th game of the season and with our team coming off a game in which they committed no more than a single turnover has earned a 31-24 record averaging a +225 wager and earning a 67% ROI over the past five seasons.

Washington head coach DeBoer is 19-2 SU in all games; 5-0 SU as an underdog; 11-1 SU after scoring 35 or more points; 17-1 SU following a win; 14-1 SU after a game in which they committed no more than one turnover; 9-1 SU after two consecutive games gaining 6.25 or more YPPL. Harbaugh is just 3-8 SU in road and neutral site games against non-conference foes.

From the predictive model, we are expecting Washington to score 27 or more points and to have the same or fewer turnovers in this game. In past games in which Washington met or exceeded these measures they went on to an outstanding 24-3 SU and 20-7 ATS for 74% winning bets over the previous five season and 4-1 ATS in those games if priced as the underdog. Michigan is 1-11 SU and 2-10 ATS when allowing 27 or more points and having the same or more turnovers in games played over the past 5 seasons.

01-01-24 Texas -3.5 v. Washington Top 31-37 Loss -110 33 h 47 m Show

10-Unit MAX Bet on the Texas Longhorns minus the 3.5 points and is valid to -6 points.

The market is telling you that Texas is the better team since they are favored but ranked No.3 to Washington’s No. 2. That does not tell us the complete story, though, so let’s dig deep here and learn why Texas is my pick and why I do believe Texas will win the National Championship. So, if you have watched the shows I appear on, the one consistent theme since Week 1 was that I saw Texas and Penn State colliding in the National Championship and had bet each one individually. So, now we have Texas left on the betting slips and even at current pricing.

Texas is 14-3 ATS on a neutral field with a total between 56.5 and 63 points. Undefeated teams playing in a bowl game or the CFP and dressed as a dog have gone 1-5 ATS and 0-6 SU. Washington has played tough games winning their last three games by three or fewer points. Texas has won their last three games by 10, 50, and 28 points respectively. Texas QB Ewers threw for 464 yards in the Big-12 Championship game that they won 49-21 over Oklahoma State. They have covered the spread in five of their last six and three straight and the market is simply not catching up to the true market value of Texas.

Three models that I have developed over decades of research prices Texas as a 9.5-point favorite over Washington. However, this does not imply that simply betting Texas is an easy winner. Instead it informs us that there is plenty of value betting Texas which increases are odds to win this 10-Unit bet, but certainly never a guarantee.

 

From the predictive model, Texas is expected to score 30 or more points and execute more rushing plays than passing plays. In this situation they are 87-9 SU and 71-24-1 ATS for 75% winning bets since 2015. Washington is 5-50 SU and 8-46-1 ATS for 15% when they allowed these measures since 2015.

Betting on elite rushing teams gaining 4.8 or more YPRA from Week 7 on out, is coming off a game limited that opponent to less than 100 rushing yards and now facing a foe that is averaging 4.35 to 4.75 YPRA has earned a 78-41 ATS record for 66% winning bets over the past 10 seasons.

12-30-23 Auburn v. Maryland UNDER 49 Top 13-31 Win 100 27 h 38 m Show

Auburn vs Maryland
Music City Bowl, Nissan Stadium, Memphis, TN
Saturday, December 30, 2:00 ET (ABC)
8-Unit best bet Under 49 points and is valid to 47.5 points.

5-Unit Optional Wager on Auburn minus the points.

Consider betting 75% of your preflop amount and then look to get 25% more at 54.5 points during the first half of action.

 

Here are some notes supporting a 5-Unit bet on Auburn and may be opportunities for those who like betting teasers or parlays. I do not bet teasers or parlays often and in the rare time that I do, I will only add to my bets with a pizza money sized amount. Maryland is 1-9 ATS after having won two of their last three games under HC Locksley. Auburn is motivated to win this bowl game to avoid being labeled the first team to have three consecutive losing seasons since the 1977. Moreover, Hugh Freeze’s 6-1 SUATS mark in bowl games and as mentioned Auburn has plenty to prove in this game to show the War Eagle fan base head coach Freeze was the right hire for the long-term.

Maryland is 32-16 after a game gaining 6.75 or more yards per play in their previous game; 27-11 UNDER after scoring 42 points or more last game. HC Freeze is 38-13 UNDER when facing a solid offensive team that is averaging 5.9 or more yards per play in all games he has coached.

The Under is 13-5-1 for 72% winning bets in bowl games in which the favorite of less than 10 points has won 6 games and the opponent has won more than 6 games, with the favorite possessing a ground attack averaging 75 or more yards per game then the opponent and with the game total set at fewer than 50 points.

Mississippi vs Penn State
Peach Bowl - Mercedes-Benz Stadium - Atlanta, GA

Noon, Saturday December 30
10-Unit Bet on Penn State minus 5.5 points and is valid to 7 points.

Consider betting 75% of your betting amount preflop and the look to add 25% more with PSU priced at pick-em or better during the first half of action. Another option is to add 25% if Mississippi scores the first TD of the game or retakes the lead with a TD score during the first half of action.

Some notes of interest about the Peach Bowl. The 2023 Peach Bowl game is a college football bowl game that will feature No. 10 Penn State and No. 11 Ole Miss on Saturday, Dec. 30 at noon ET. The game will be played at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia, and will be televised by ESPN.

This will be the first-ever meeting between the two programs, and only the sixth Big Ten vs. SEC matchup in the Bowl's history. Both teams finished the regular season with 10-2 records and are looking to end the year ranked in the Top-10 Final poll.

Penn State boasts the nation's top-ranked defense based on my comprehensive power rankings. They are expected to slow down the high-octane Mississippi Rebel offense for the entire game. That does noy imply that Mississippi will be held scoreless, but rather that the Mississippi offense will not keep pace with the PSU offense led by sophomore 5-star

The Peach Bowl game will be a clash of styles, as Penn State's stingy defense will try to slow down Ole Miss's high-powered offense. Both teams have a chance to make history, as Penn State can become the first program to win every bowl game that comprises the New Year's Six, and Ole Miss can win its first New Year's Six bowl game under head coach Lane Kiffin.

PSU is 9-1 ATS as a favorite this season; 11-1 ATS after playing two consecutive games against conference foes over the past two seasons; 9-1 ATS in December games; James Franklin is 12-2 ATS when having won 8 or more of their previous 10 games; 16-1 Ats following back-to-back double-digit wins over conference foes; 9-1 ATS when facing a team that is averaging 275 or more passing yards per game.

12-29-23 Missouri v. Ohio State OVER 48.5 Top 14-3 Loss -110 198 h 19 m Show

Ohio State vs Missouri
The Cotton Bowl Classic
8 PM EST
8-Unit best bet on the OVER, currently priced at 49 points. Given the player news that has surfaced over the past week, I do see this total moving lower. I recommend betting 25% no, though at the best price you are offered and then monitor the total movement over the next week.

The Buckeyes starting QB McCord lost just one game this season but nevertheless entered the transfer portal and is going to attend Syracuse next season. Replacing him for the Cotton Bowl Classic is red shirt freshman Devin Brown, who hails from Draper, Utah. He attended Corner Canyon High School and led them to the state championship game and was named MaxPreps’ Utah state player of the year and threw for nearly 8,000 yards and 85 touchdown passes in his 31-game high school career. He played his first three seasons at Queen Creek High School in Arizona and was coached by former Buckeye QB and Rose Bowl MVP Joe Germaine. He then transferred to Corner Canyon, in Draper Utah, for his senior season to play in a different offense, and he threw for a whopping 4,881 yards with 57 TDs while adding 430 yards on the ground and eight more touchdowns.

He competed with Kyle McCord for the No. 1 quarterback role through 11 practices during the 2023 spring drills before injuring a finger and missing the final four practices, including the spring game. He then switched jersey numbers from 15 to 33, a number he wore throughout age group football and for a time in high school, and as a tribute to Sammy Baugh, a charter member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Brown says No. 33 is “the original quarterback number” and no one can disagree with that fact. So, I do not see much decline in the performance of the high-powered offense with him under center and a stable of weapons and underclassmen making their first appearances, who will be motivated to give the best possible performance for the coaching staff heading into Spring Football.

Brown suffered an ankle sprain and is listed as pout till the end of December, but I strongly believe he will start.

 

Betting the OVER in a bowl game featuring two teams with nine or more wins and with one of them having beaten the spread by 42 or more points over their last five games has goner a highly profitable 15-3 for 83% winning bets over the past 10 seasons. If the total is priced between 42.5 and 60 points the Over is 9-1 for 90% winning bets.

Betting on neutral field underdogs that are facing a foe that has won 60 to 85% of their games and has won three of their last four games has earned a 32-10 record good for 77% winning bets since 2014.  

The predictive models I have developed reveal that OSU is 23-6 SU and 25-4 ATS for 86%) when scoring 28 or more -points and gaining at least 150 rushing yards since 2019.

Clemson vs Kentucky

TaxSlayer Gator Bowl | Noon ET, Friday
8-Unit Bet on Kentucky plus the 4.5 points and is valid if they remain the underdog.

This bowl game features a team from the SEC going up against a team from the ACC ro another conference if no ACC teams are available. Here are some more interesting facts about the Gator Bowl.

Some facts about the Gator Bowl Football Game are:

The first Gator Bowl was played on January 1, 1946, between Wake Forest and South Carolina, with Wake Forest winning 26-14.

The most recent Gator Bowl was played on December 30, 2022, between Notre Dame and South Carolina, with Notre Dame winning 30-33.

The Gator Bowl has hosted four national championship teams: Georgia Tech in 1952, Florida in 1996, Tennessee in 1998, and Florida State in 2013.

The Gator Bowl has featured some of the most memorable moments in college football history, such as the “Fog Bowl” in 1959, the “Lindsey Scott Miracle Run” in 1980, the “Gator Flop” in 1971, and the “Woody Hayes Punch” in 1978.

The Gator Bowl has also showcased some of the most prominent players and coaches in college football history, such as Bobby Bowden, Steve Spurrier, Peyton Manning, Tim Tebow, Joe Namath, and Johnny Unitas.

Clemson (8-4 SU, 6-6 ATS) had a disappointing season by its own standards, losing four games for the first time since 2014. The Tigers struggled offensively, ranking 56th in the nation in scoring with 29.2 points per game. Quarterback Cade Klubnik had a solid debut season, throwing for 2,580 yards and 19 touchdowns, but also had eight interceptions. The Tigers relied on their running game, led by Phil Mafah and Will Shipley, who combined for 1,692 yards and 14 touchdowns. Clemson’s defense was solid, allowing only 19.9 points per game and ranking fifth in the nation in passing defense. However, the Tigers will be without some key players on defense, such as linebacker Jeremiah Trotter and defensive end Ruke Orhorhoro, who opted out of the bowl game. Most importantly, they are very thin at the cornerback position and any injury, even if minor that removes the starting corners out fo the game for a few plays, will present some high percentage chunk plays for Kentucky.

Kentucky (7-5, 6-6 ATS) had a roller-coaster season, winning its first four games before losing five of its next seven. The Wildcats had a balanced offense, averaging 28.6 points per game and ranking 95th in passing and 96th in rushing. Quarterback Devin Leary, a transfer from NC State, had a breakout season, throwing for 2,440 yards and 23 touchdowns, with 10 interceptions. He had a trio of reliable receivers in Dane Key, Barion Brown and Tayvion Robinson, who each had over 400 yards and four touchdowns. The Wildcats also had a star running back in Ray Davis, who rushed for 1,066 yards and 13 touchdowns. Davis declared for the NFL Draft, but will play in the bowl game.

Kentucky’s defense was average, allowing 26.8 points per game and ranking 65th in total defense. The Wildcats thrived on forcing turnovers, as they had 21 takeaways, including 14 interceptions.

Head coach Stoops is 23-13 ATS when facing a non-conference game. Clemson is 3-12 ATS after allowing 14 or fewer points in games played over the past three seasons; 1-8 ATS after allowing seven or fewer points in the first of each of their ;ast two games in games played over the past three seasons.

8-Unit best bet Under the posted total

 

Betting the Under with a team (Oklahoma) that has covered the spread by 42 or more points over their last five games in a bowl game or playoff game and with both teams having won 9 or more games on the season has seen the Under go 15-3 for 83% winning bets over the past 10 seasons.

Here is another system that has earned a record good for 85% winning bets over the past five seasons. The requirements are to be the Under in a neutral field matchup with a total between 56.5 and 69.5 points with a team (Arizona) coming off two consecutive wins over conference rivals. If the game takes place in December, these games have seen the Under go 13-4 for 76% winning bets over the past 10 seasons.

USC vs Louisville

8 ET | Fox | Holiday Bowl
Petco Park, San Diego, CA
8-Unit bet on the Trojans plus the 7 0oints and is valid down to 6.5 points.

Betting on teams priced as 4.5 or greater underdogs in a bowl game and covered the spread in three or fewer games on the season have produced a 14-9-2 ATS mark good for 61% winning bets dating back to the 1989 season.

The market has overreacted to how poorly USC played down the stretch ranking 11th best in total offense but a horrid 120th in total defense nationally and the fact that their 2022 Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams has opted out of this bowl game. It is also a fact that PAC-12 Bowl teams have gone a shocking 0-16 ATS when coming off a SU and ATS loss in their season finale. However, that trend is mature and statistically poised to move in the other direct over the coming bowl seasons. Problem is there I no PAC-12 conference starting next season. Trends like this one reflect a market that has continuously relied on it and others and the result is an undervalued underdog, especially in this matchup.

USC has a new defensive coordinator who will prepare this Trojan team better than in any of the previous 8 games this season and further they have the motivation to play hard and put the those terrible defensive games in the rearview mirror heading into Spring Football. Lincoln Kennedy is an elite coach and is 6-1 ATS as a dog of 3 or more points in bowl games. If this game was priced before the season started the trojans would have been 9.5-point favorites.

The predictive models inform us that USC is 69-4 SU and 55-16-1 ATS for 78% winning bets when they have been priced as a dog, scored 27 or more points, and had the same or fewer turnovers.

The Roofclaim.com Boca Raton Bowl
Thursday, December 21, 2023
8-Unit Best Bet on the Under currently priced at 56.5 points and is valid down to 55.5 points.

The South Florida Bulls will square off against the Syracuse Orange in Boca Raton, Florida and is scheduled to start at 8:00 EST and will be televised by ESPN. The game will be played on the Florida Atlantic home stadium and will give provide a modest home field advantage for the Bulls. What does matter is that both teams are 6-6 SU and with win can claim a winning season record for their recruiting efforts.

The Bulls yielded the most passing yards per game (301) in the nation this year, but Syracuse will be starting redshirt freshman Braden Davis, who threw one pass this season. He attended South Carolina as a freshman and made the transfer last season. He is 6-5 and 200 pounds and does have a strong arm, but will be throw accurate passes for 60 minutes is an unknown.

He was the Gatorade Delaware Player of the Year and led the Middletown, DE Cavaliers to an 11-1 record and the state championship as a senior. He was selected for the Under Armour All-America game. He completed 114-of-156 passes for 1,872 yards and 20 touchdowns through nine games and rushed for 638 yards and three scores on 46 carries. One of six members of the prestigious Franklin D. Watkins Memorial Award Class of 2022 and ranked as the top player in the state of Delaware, the 23rd-best quarterback prospect in the nation. 

His running ability is a threat in this matchup and look for Syracuse to execute RPO and the wild cat far more than they did during the regular season. It may be his only start knowing that Ohio State starting QB McCord transferred to the Orange in recent weeks.

The following betting algorithm has produced a 49-24 Under record good for 67% winning bets. Bet the Under in games with a total between 57.5 and 70 points.

12-19-23 UTSA v. Marshall +8.5 Top 35-17 Loss -110 4 h 5 m Show

UTSA vs Marshall
Frisco Bowl
9 ET December 19
8-Unit bet on Marshall plus 7.5 points and is valid bet if they remain the dog

 

 

 

UTSA is coming off a 29-16 loss as a 3.5-point underdog to Tulane in their previous game. Marshall is coming off a 35-21 win as 1-point underdog over Arkansas State in their season finale and that momentum will carry over to this bowl game. Marshall has seen 11 players enter the transfer portal with their sophomore quarterback Cam Fancher entering the portal December 11. However, Marshall is quite deep in the quarterback position.

Marshall faces a quarterback conundrum with a major transfer triggering a rise in the betting lines to a double-digit spread. However, there is not going to be a significant drop-off if this opens the door for Cole Pennington, son of former NFL QB Chad Pennington, to step in under center. In fact, I see no change to a potential better offense with Pennington calling the signals.  He completed 49-of-79 passes for 437 yards including 6 TD and 3 interceptions in three games, including starts against Georgia Southern and South Alabama. So, his potential is quite high, and he already has proven he can run an efficient offense.

From the predictive model we are looking for Marshall to score 24 or more points and gain at least 5 yards per play has seen them produce a 56-12 record and a 42-25-1 ATS record over the last 10 seasons. If they were an underdog in these games, they have gone 6-4 SU and 8-2 ATS.

12-02-23 Louisville v. Florida State -115 Top 6-16 Win 100 9 h 24 m Show

Louisville vs FSU
ACC Championship
8 ET | 8-Unit Best Bet on FSU minus the point.

FSU is not a team based on a star quarterback. They are a complete team and no one talks about their defense that ranks 8th nationally allowing 17.1 PPG and 7th posting a 0.252 points per play allowed ratio. They are the BEST passing defense in the nation allowing 47% completions and 8th with a 9.08% sack percentage. It will be the defense that will get the job done and limit Louisville’s offensive production.

FSU is 8-1 when facing an above average passing team completing 64% or more of their passes.

[QB] Tate Rodemaker (Head) - Doubtful () [12/01/2023] => Rodemaker is tending to a head injury, and it is unlikely that he will take on Louisville in the ACC Championship game.
