NCAA Football Betting: Fading the Top 25 Weekly Free Picks
by Aaron Smith - 10/15/2014
Week 7 brought some more really bad results for the Top 25, and that’s good news for this experiment. The Top 25 as a whole did horribly against the number as you will see at the bottom of this report. In addition, our Week 7 selections went 3-1. USC won by two, so they will be counted as a loss on the picks record, but the Trojans actually covered the spread for late bettors since late money came in on Arizona.
Handicapping the Remaining Unbeatens in College Football
by Trevor Whenham - 10/14/2014
Through seven weeks of the college football season there are just six teams that have yet to suffer a loss. By this time next week we are going to be down to no more than five because Notre Dame and Florida State meet. If the two surprise schools from Mississippi make it through 11 games without a loss — which is far from a certainty in both cases — then one will lose their season-ending showdown that could cause the entire state to implode.
NCAA Football Predictions: Week 8 Opening Line Report and Picks
by Alan Matthews - 10/13/2014
Pretty solid Week 7 on my college football early-week picks. That Central Florida -3.5 line was one of my favorites of the year at home against BYU. The Knights saved me some embarrassment by winning by a touchdown in overtime. I think Penn State (+1) would have beaten Michigan if not for an absolutely horrible offside call after the Lions recovered a late onside kick.
Free College Football Pick for Thursday: Utah vs. Oregon State
by CarbonSports - 10/13/2014
Both of these Pac-12 teams had last weekend off to rest up after victories and prepare for this game. With identical 4-1 SU records, Utah and Oregon State have a shot at claiming their respective divisions in the Pac-12 but that run would likely end for the losers of Thursday's game.
College Football Mid-Major Betting Report: Akron Zips Week 7
by Aaron Smith - 10/8/2014
It’s time for Week 7 of the college football mid-major betting report. This is the fourth year Doc’s Sports has offered this report. The goal of this weekly article is to try to show bettors that specialization is a profitable betting strategy. It’s a strategy many of the best bettors in the world use. Since there are so many teams in college football, specialization is particularly relevant in this area.
NCAA Football Picks and American Athletic Conference Week 7 Betting Report
by Dave Schwab - 10/8/2014
East Carolina rolled to a 45-24 victory over SMU this past Saturday to remain the top team in the AAC in its inaugural season in the conference, but it could not cover the huge 41-point spread as my pick of the week. This evened my mark on the year to 3-3 in my top plays for the AAC, but I am confident that I will poke my head back above .500 with this week’s top play.
NCAA Football Betting: Fading the Top 25 Weekly Free Picks
by Aaron Smith - 10/7/2014
Week 6 was the wildest weekend of college football in a very long time. I can’t remember another week that saw so many upsets and exciting finishes. The schedule was loaded with great games, and those games didn’t disappoint at all. Four of the top six teams in the nation lost last week. There were 11 losers inside the Top 25 last weekend. Many of those losses occurred in the final seconds of the game.
Free College Football Pick for Friday: Washington State vs. Stanford
by CarbonSports - 10/7/2014
Friday night we've got a pair of Pac-12 North rivals that are coming off a SU loss as favorites this past week. Stanford lost 17-14 @ Notre Dame on a 4th and 11 touchdown pass after they only decided to rush three guys (gave ND QB plenty of time) and a coverage mix-up left an Irish receiver wide open in the end zone.
NCAA Football Predictions: Week 7 Opening Line Report and Picks
by Alan Matthews - 10/6/2014
Has there ever been a college football week like we just saw? I don't think so as it was utter chaos with five of the Top 8 in the Associated Press poll falling. This is why it's smart that the College Football Committee won't release its first Top 25 until Oct. 28. We need to see how things shake out for a while longer first. Speaking of the playoff, now there is zero wiggle room for powerhouses like Oregon (lost at home to Arizona on Thursday), Texas A&M (blasted at Mississippi State), Alabama (lost at Ole Miss), Oklahoma (lost at TCU) and UCLA (lost at home to Utah).
NCAA Football Picks and American Athletic Conference Week 6 Betting Report
by Dave Schwab - 10/1/2014
Cincinnati’s 50-28 loss to Ohio State as a 15.5-point road underdog this past Saturday dropped my record to 3-2 in my top weekly picks in the AAC, but I am already hard at work uncovering another solid play for this week’s games. The top team in the conference this season, East Carolina, is back in action and poised to possibly fit the bill.

Free College Football Pick for Saturday: Arizona State vs. USC
by CarbonSports - 10/1/2014
The Pac-12 should be a very entertaining conference to watch over the next two months as they've got some very talented teams throughout the conference and we will see some upsets across the board. Arizona State is looking to pull off that feat a week after getting shelled at home by L.A's (UCLA) other team 62-27. The Sun Devils are in L.A this week as double-digit road dogs against USC as the Trojans aim to remain perfect in Pac-12 play.
Free NCAA Football Pick for Thursday: Arizona vs. Oregon
by CarbonSports - 9/30/2014
We've got three games this Thursday to start the week of college football action, but it's a Pac-12 showdown between two undefeated ranked rivals that will have everyone's juices flowing that night. The Arizona Wildcats head up to Eugene to play the Oregon Ducks after both teams had last week off and it's the Ducks who will be out for revenge.
NCAA Football Betting: Fading the Top 25 Weekly Free Picks
by Aaron Smith - 9/30/2014
Week 5 is in the rear view mirror, and the calendar is flipping over to October. Last week’s selections split with USF and Washington winning and New Mexico State and Cincinnati losing. For the season overall, the Top 25 teams have 50 wins and 50 losses against the spread. There were two ties last week (Ole Miss and Baylor). It’s a very interesting week to keep an eye on the Top 25 this weekend since there are far fewer big-name teams on a bye week this Saturday. There will be plenty of action, and I expect a bunch of great games.
NCAA Football Predictions: Week 6 Opening Line Report and Picks
by Alan Matthews - 9/29/2014
OK, lesson learned now. I am done thinking Michigan's players have any heart or pride. Yet again the Wolverines bit me in Week 5 as UM inexplicably lost at home to Minnesota. I said that Brady Hoke was going to be fired last week after a loss to Utah, but now I am 100 percent sure of it. About the only way he could save his job is winning out, and that's just not going to happen. I did hit on UCLA covering at Arizona State as Brett Hundley did play.
NCAA Football Picks and American Athletic Conference Week 5 Betting Report
by Dave Schwab - 9/24/2014
I went with the “over” 61 in SMU’s home game against Texas A&M this past Saturday as my 3-Unit AAC “pick of the week,” and luckily the Aggies did all the heavy lifting on their own in a 58-6 romp that raised my record on the year to 3-1.

Week 4 of the college football mid-major report is here. For the past three years, Doc’s Sports has been offering this report. What’s the goal of this article? The goal is to try to show bettors that specialization is a profitable betting strategy. It’s a strategy many of the best bettors in the world use. Since there are so many teams in college football, specialization is particularly relevant in this area.
Free NCAA Football Pick for Saturday Oregon State vs. USC
by CarbonSports - 9/24/2014
With a lot of big name college programs off this week (Alabama, Oregon, Arizona, Oklahoma) there are a lot of other programs to pay attention to this weekend and two of them meet on Saturday night in L.A. Undefeated Oregon State rolls into USC to take on a rested Trojans team that has had two weeks off to lick their wounds after losing outright as heavy favorites against Boston College. The Trojans are nearly 10-point favorites in this one against the Beavers, but given the history in this Pac-12 rivalry that's not necessarily a good thing.
NCAA Football Betting: Fading the Top 25 Weekly Free Picks
by Aaron Smith - 9/23/2014
To say that last weekend was a bad week for the Fade the Top 25 selections is an understatement. The picks went 0-3 against the spread for the week. Georgia blew the doors off Troy as the Bulldogs kept the foot on the gas a lot longer than I thought they might. West Virginia deserved to cover against Oklahoma but didn’t finish well. The Florida State pick is the one that hurt the most, though. Since this weekly article is done so early each week, I didn’t know that Jameis Winston would be suspended for the game by the time the game took place.
NCAA Football Predictions: Week 5 Opening Line Report and Picks
by Alan Matthews - 9/22/2014
A decent Week 4 on my college football recommendations. I really thought Oklahoma had a good chance of losing at West Virginia, but the Sooners not only won but covered. I also thought Michigan actually had some heart and wouldn't lose at home to Utah. Oops. I did get Kansas State covering on Thursday night against Auburn, and really the Wildcats should have won but kept shooting themselves in the foot.
