College Football Picks Against The Spread November 21-23, 2017

I had a decent week in college football pick em. I needed better than decent, but after last week, I’ll take it. Most of my picks against the spread went pretty well, I think. I came out in the black in the games I bet, but I haven’t tallied up all the games yet.

For those of you that are new here, I put myself out there every week. For the last six years, I have picked every single college football game. Sounds easy, right? I thought so too. So I have picked them all against the spread. That significantly increases the degree of difficulty.

I take the average of the odds from the six major Vegas casinos and round that to the nearest half point. There will be no ties here. Ties are for the other football.

Some site will sell you top ten picks for a fee. Some will even give you a couple of free picks to lure you in. This is every game picked, all for free.

I will assign a point value “bet” on each game, between one and five points. That way you can see just how confident I am in each pick. Look for those at the end of each line.

I cannot be responsible for you losing any of your worldly possessions, significant others, or limbs to a loan shark. This is for entertainment purposes only! I am a simple person. I cannot have that on my conscience.

We have a huge week of college football this week! All 62 games are FBS vs. FBS tilts. We have three games tonight, and then the Egg Bowl on Thursday. Let’s start rivalry week off right!

Kent State at Akron(-15.5)(3): Akron may still be without QB Thomas Woodson. Still, Kent hasn’t busted a spread in over a month, and is just 3-8 against the spread on the year. Akron is a much safer bet, having busted three straight spreads. I’ll take the Zips.

Bowling Green at Eastern Michigan(-13.5)(4): I realize that the Falcons are playing pretty well right now, but they are still just 2-9 against the spread. I am thinking that this follows the current trend of Falcons games. They hang around for the first half and make things interesting, but fade late. I’ll go with the Eagles at home.

Miami(OH)(-17.5) at Ball State(3): David Letterman U has only busted one spread since losing the offensive battery of QB Riley Neal and RB James Gilbert. A potentially decent season has been decimated by injury for the Cardinals, but the Redhawks are licking wounds as well. After starting the 2016 season 0-6, the Redhawks won out to win a bowl game. Eastern Michigan dashed their bowl hopes last week, so this is their bowl. I’ll take Miami.

Mississippi at (16)Mississippi State(-16.5)(3): Man, that is a ton of points for a rivalry game. We have seen the dogs win big in this series lately when it looked like they had no business winning. Take 2014, when the Bulldogs were 10-1 and ranked fourth in the country. Ole Miss won by two touchdowns. Last year the Bulldogs ran up 55 points on the Land Shark defense. This is another year where it looks like the Bulldogs have a decided advantage. I think they win, but not by that many. Ole Miss has looked good lately. I’ll take the Rebels.
