If the Baylor Bears follow a familiar script in 2023 they should be around the 10-win mark putting them over their projected total of 7.5. In 2019 the Bears went 11-3 followed by a 2-7 mark in 2020, Dave Aranda’s first with the program. The Bears established a school record in 2021 winning 12 games, including the Big 12 championship and knocking off Ole Miss in the Sugar Bow... 

The grass isn’t always greener on the other side, as the Auburn Tigers can attest. Firing Gus Malzahn after eight straight winning seasons wasn’t the answer leaving the program to pick up the pieces from the failed Bryan Harsin era. Two straight losing campaigns and Auburn again has a new coach in Hugh Freeze. No stranger to the rigors of the SEC with a previous stint at O... 

When an 11-win season is considered a failure you know the bar is set high. A perennial College Football Playoff participant and national championship threat, the Alabama Crimson Tide will look to get back in the hunt in 2023. Regular season losses to Tennessee and LSU cost the Tide the SEC East title, a trip to the conference championship game and a berth in the CFP. You could say the Tide will be playing with a chip on their shoulder this season, but the loss of several big time players, including No. 1 overall NFL draft pick Bryce Young and an overall tougher conference has Nick Saban’s group answering more questions than in previous years. Still, the Tide simply reloads with talent and is once again expected to win at least 10 games. ... 

A model of consistency under Dabo Swinney, the Clemson Tigers have won at least 10 games in each of the past 12 seasons with seven ACC titles in the last eight years. Clemson isn’t going anywhere and once again is poised to win a championship as the favorite on the odds board. However, the gap is closing with Florida State a close second. Clemson and FSU were the only ACC programs in 2022 with double-figure wins. The league eliminated its division format with the top two teams in the conference standings playing for the ACC championship. The middle of the conference is strong with North Carolina, Louisville, NC State and Miami all boasting 18/1 or better odds while possessing the talent and ability to upset the favorites at any time. ... 

The top of the odds board for the 2023 Pac-12 football champion shows how tight the conference is with five teams opening with odds of +750 or shorter. The return of Heisman Trophy winner Caleb Williams has the USC Trojans positioned at the top of the heap eyeing their first College Football Playoff appearance and even more. The Trojans boasted the best offense in the conferen... 

The Big 12 as we knew it has changed and it will undergo further adjustments next year. With Texas and Oklahoma set to depart for the SEC following this season both programs are expected to go out with a bang as the favorites to win the con... 

When it comes to the Big Ten Conference there’s the Ohio State Buckeyes and Michigan Wolverines followed by everyone else. Over the last several years the regular season-ending matchup between the rivals was the de facto Big T... 

The top two teams on college football’s national championship futures board reside in the SEC and once again the conference title will run through Athens in a figurative sense. The two-time defending CFP Champion Georgia Bulldogs are a negative odds favorite to win the 2023 SEC football championship with Alabama close behind. Those two schools combined to win nine of... 

Some collegiate athletics administrators say a conference is only as good as the weakest team. In most instances that’s probably a fair assessment, but when it comes to football and the SEC we can think otherwise. The top two favorites to win the national championship for the 2023 college football season are all too familiar with the Georgia Bulldogs favored for a three-peat ahead of the school that won half of the 12 titles before the Dawgs’ run of dominance, the Alabama Crimson Tide.... 

The College Football National Championship Game takes place on Monday night, as the TCU Horned Frogs play the Georgia Bulldogs. You can bet on the side, total and money line for the title game and you can also bet on National Championship Game props. The Bulldogs are listed as a 12.5-point favorite with the total listed at 63. If you don’t want to lay the big points for the game, you could choose to bet the first half and you can also bet props like the first team to score and the first player t... 

The Georgia Bulldogs are a big favorite to become the first College Football Playoff repeat champion and the first with back-to-back national titles in over a decade when they face the surprising TCU Horned Frogs in the national championship game on Monday night. If TCU felt disrespected by being a 9-point underdog to Michigan imagine how they feel now with the line for the title game set at TCU +12.5. The Frogs shocked nearly everyone with the biggest upset in CFP history dismantling UM’s stingy defense. UGA survived a last-second field goal attempt to edge Ohio State, 42-41, hitting the 40-point mark for the sixth time in nine games. On Monday, January 9, 2023, the TCU Horned Frogs play the Georgia Bulldogs in the CFP National Championship Game at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, CA. Kickoff time is set for 7:30 p.m. ET with television coverage on ESPN. ... 

The Georgia Bulldogs are next in line to become the first repeat College Football Playoff champion with their journey starting Saturday in the Peach Bowl semifinal matchup with the Ohio State Buckeyes. Georgia’s current 15-game winning streak started in last year’s CFP with routs of Michigan and Alabama to claim the program’s first CFP title. The Bulldogs’ are ranked among the best both offensively and defensively making them the No. 1 seed in the tournament and a 6.5-point favorite in this matc... 

The TCU Horned Frogs nearly had their magical season end with a loss to Kansas State in the Big 12 championship. However, they did enough to impress the committee becoming the first team from the state of Texas to play in the CFP. TCU gets a tough assignment against the unbeaten Michigan Wolverines in the Fiesta Bowl semifinal matchup. UM is poised to make noise this year after losing to eventual champion Georgia in last year’s semifinal. Michigan closed the season with an upset win at rival Ohi... 

The Penn State Nittany Lions play the Utah Utes on Monday, January 2 in the Rose Bowl on ESPN. The Nittany Lions come into this game at 10-2 SU and 9-3 ATS with eight games going over the total and four going under, while the Utes are 10-3 SU and 8-5 ATS with seven games going over the total and six going under. This will be the second consecutive year for Utah in the Rose Bowl, as the Utes were outscored by Ohio State in last year’s Rose Bowl. It could be a similar type of game this year, as bo... 

It’s a prerequisite for the Armed Forces Bowl to have a service academy representative as long as they are eligible. Thus we get the streaking Air Force Falcons, winners of four straight and nine games on the year taking on the Big 12’s Baylor Bears on Thursday in Fort Worth. We typically think of Air Force as the master of the triple option running the ball down opponent’s throats. Oh, that hasn’t changed, but the Falcons put together one of their best seasons behind a stingy defense that allow... 

It’s not quite the Pac-12/SEC matchup most were hoping to see this bowl season, but the 2022 edition of the Las Vegas Bowl has a good one with the upstart Oregon State Beavers taking on the Florida Gators on Saturday. The Gators limp into this matchup having lost their last two games and a number of players to either injury or the transfer portal leaving them as a 10-point underdog on the college football betting line. The Beavers are enjoying one of their finest seasons with nine wins, includin... 

Without a bowl appearance on the horizon for either side, the annual tussle between the Army Black Knights and Navy Midshipmen takes on even more meaning since this IS their bowl game. While the matchup has lost much of its luster over the decades, the game is still such a big deal it gets a week all to itself. You might as well throw all the records and stats out the window when these men lace it up against each other. Both teams are playing perhaps their best football of the season coming in with Army notching consecutive blowout wins and Navy splitting its last four with close setbacks to Cincinnati and Notre Dame. On Saturday, December 10, 2022, the Army Black Knights play the Navy Midshipmen at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, PA. Kickoff time is set for 3 p.m. ET with television coverage on CBS. ... 

The LSU Tigers play the Georgia Bulldogs on Saturday in the SEC Championship Game on CBS. This could have been a huge matchup for LSU but they couldn’t beat Texas A&M last week and now the Tigers are out of contention to make the College Football Playoff. The Bulldogs are ranked No. 1 in the country and they are heavily favored to win this game on Saturday. The Bulldogs are going to make the College Football Playoff whether they win this game or not, but there is no question Georgia wants to...

There’s nothing like hitting a hot streak at the betting window as the season winds down. I came close to hitting all three winners on my under the radar picks in previous weeks and finally hit the trifecta in Week 12 for the third time this college football season.

With the 2022 college football season winding down the opportunities to beat the house on under the radar picks are dwindling.

The goal is to win more than you lose and a nice run has put me in a good position heading into the final weeks of the campaign. That doesn’t mean I can take my foot...

I stayed above water on my college football under the radar picks hitting on two of my three games last week. And I’ll take that any day since the goal is to obviously win more than you lose. And after a few non-winning weeks I got some breathing room by going 4-2 the last two weekends giving me payouts in over 55 percent of the games for the season. Winners are out there and I’ll do my best to find more under the radar winners in Week 11 of the college football schedule....
