College football betting picks against the spread November 30, 2019

College football betting early picks November 30:

(1)Ohio State(-9.5) at (13)Michigan(3):

I have serious issues with Ohio State being number one, but that’s for another day. I still have them number two, so it’s not that egregious of a ranking. I would like to say that Michigan found themselves while throttling Notre Dame, but it’s so hard to tell. The bottom of the Big Ten(14) is so weak that we don’t really know. That’s where Michigan has lived since the Notre Dame game. I think Ohio State covers, but just in case Michigan shows up, I’ll lower the bet.

(3)Clemson(-27.5) at South Carolina(4):

Not on the road and not in a rivalry. South Carolina hangs around. Give me the Gamecocks.

(4)Georgia(-28.5) at Georgia Tech(5):

See also: Clemson at South Carolina. This lines are out of whack. The Wreck can play some defense and this Georgia offense hasn’t exactly been world beaters. The Bulldogs haven’t even scored 28 points since October 5 against Tennessee. This is way too many. Georgia has only covered this line three times against Tech since 1995.

Texas State at Coastal Carolina(-6.5)(3):

This looks low. The Bobcats have not played well on the road and the Chanticleers lost the last two by a combined four points to two pretty good teams in Monroe and Arkansas State. I’ll take CCU.

Tulsa(-5.5) at East Carolina(2):

The Pirates have been tough everywhere lately, but so has Tulsa. I don’t really like this line. I think it stays closer than this or ECU wins outright in Greensboro, so give me the Pirates.

Florida International at Marshall(-7.5)(2):

I see that FIU is getting the Rodney Dangerfield treatment for beating Miami. I’ll give you some respect guys. Give me FIU. They may not win outright, but I don’t think they lose by more than a touchdown either.

Louisville at Kentucky(-3.5)(1):

All I know is that this is going to be a low scoring game. That Louisville offense is explosive, but they haven’t faced a defense like this. Then again, I don’t like the half either. I’ll take Louisville, but I wouldn’t bet this. Not even if I lived in Kentucky and everyone else was doing it.

Northwestern at Illinois(-8.5)(3):

This line is all over the place. It did open at -8.5 though, so that makes sense on where to leave it. If you want to bet this, shop around. It’s as low as -7 and as high as -9.5. I still like Illinois by double digits though. This Northwestern offense makes Illinois look explosive.

Indiana(-6.5) at Purdue(4):

This line is almost -7 across the board right now. I’m okay with that. Purdue is just too beaten up to win this, even at home. I’ll take the Hoosiers.

Wake Forest(-3.5) at Syracuse(5):

I know that Wake is missing their two best receivers. They aren’t missing their quarterback, coach, or Kendall Hinton. They still win and win big. Give me Wake!

Middle Tennessee State at Western Kentucky(-8.5)(4):

This looks low. WKU blew out an SEC team on the road. What have the Blue Raiders done this year? The Tennessee team that MTSU beat earlier this year is not the one you see now. Give me the Hilltoppers.

Charlotte(-9.5) at Old Dominion(3):

Do the Monarchs show up here? Even if they do, I still think they lose by double digits. Give me Charlotte.

Wyoming at Air Force(-10.5)(2):

This looks high. Wyoming has a solid defense and Air Force putting on an aerial display against the Lobos doesn’t mean much. I’ll take the Cowboys. I think this stays within single digits.

New Mexico State at Liberty(-14.5)(1):

I don’t like the half. Otherwise I would put more on this. The Aggies are seriously terrible, but they might only lose by 14. Give me Liberty.

Rice(-6.5) at UTEP(3):

Fine, I’ll take the bait. Give me the Owls even though there isn’t much to like about this offense.

UNLV at Nevada(-7.5)(2):

Other rivalries get a lot more fanfare, but these two really don’t like each other either. I think this stays a one score game. I’ll take UNLV.
