Free NFL Betting Picks for Sunday: Pro Football Totals Predictions
by CarbonSports - 9/18/2014
The Bengals defense has gotten a lot of national media attention this week after two stellar performances against Baltimore and Atlanta to open the season. If you take away Steve Smith's 80-yard TD pass in Week 1, opposing QB's are only averaging 4.72 yards per pass attempt against Cincinnati. So what makes me think that after two straight 'unders' for the Bengals that their Week 3 game against the Titans will sail over this number?
NCAA Football Picks and American Athletic Conference Week 4 Betting Report
by Dave Schwab - 9/17/2014
The NC State Wolfpack rolled over South Florida this past Saturday 49-17 as two-point road favorites to take my record in the AAC this season to 2-1, but the biggest news in this conference was East Carolina’s shocking 28-21 victory over then-No. 17 Virginia Tech as a 10-point underdog on the road. The Hokies first broke into the Top 25 following their stunning upset of Ohio State the week before.
College Football Mid-Major Betting Report: Akron Zips Week 4
by Aaron Smith - 9/17/2014
It’s time for Week 3 of the weekly mid-major college football betting report. 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 sport.
NCAA Football Betting: Fading the Top 25 Weekly Free Picks
by Aaron Smith - 9/16/2014
It’s already Week 4 of the college football season. The Fading the Top 25 picks were profitable last week. Boston College +17.5 turned out to be a great pick as the Eagles upset the USC Trojans outright in a stunner. Southern Miss catching 48 points was also a winner. The Buffalo Bulls were unable to stop the Baylor Bears offense all night, and the Bulls was the lone loser from last week’s selections.
NCAA Football Predictions: Week 4 Opening Line Report and Picks
by Alan Matthews - 9/15/2014
Pretty solid Week 3 on my NCAA picks even though Kentucky nearly made me look like an idiot as I expected the Gators would crush the Wildcats. Instead, it took UF three overtimes to avoid a huge home embarrassment. A loss there would have all but guaranteed that Will Muschamp was a goner after the season. I did call Houston covering at BYU in a bit of a letdown game for the Cougars as well as writing this about East Carolina-Virginia Tech, a letdown game for the Hokies :"I honestly wouldn't be surprised to see an outright ECU win here." The Pirates did.
College Football Betting Trends that Emerged in Week 3
by George Monroy - 9/15/2014
The third week of the college football season reminded fans about the greatest aspect of sports—upsets. Those surprise losses, particularly in college football, can ruin a team’s entire season and bump a squad from the national title race. However, it’s not until the top ranked schools start losing that the season truly gets interesting. Did I mention that No. 9 USC lost to unranked Boston College?
Free NCAA Football Pick for Thursday: Auburn vs. Kansas State
by CarbonSports - 9/15/2014
It's the quarter-pole of the college football season this week as conference play really starts to heat up across the country. However, we open up the week with a SEC vs. Big 12 game between two ranked opponents. This game should be a great one and the loser will have an uphill climb ahead of them to be in the running for one of those four coveted playoff spots at year's end.
NCAA Football Picks and American Athletic Conference Week 3 Betting Report
by Dave Schwab - 9/10/2014
The results of Week 2 in the AAC are in the books, and I was able to even my mark on the year to 1-1 with the correct call on the “under” 50.5 in SMU’s 46-3 loss to North Texas as a 2.5-point road underdog on a 3-Unit play (using Doc’s Sports Unit Betting System). The Mustangs fell to 0-2 on the year both straight up and against the spread.
NCAA Football Betting: Fading the Top 25 Weekly Free Picks
by Aaron Smith - 9/10/2014
Fading the Top 25 is back for the third week of the college football season. Week 2 was an awful week for the Big Ten once again. The Big Ten has taken a lot of heat in the media and among fans, and last weekend was an example of how far this once-mighty conference has fallen. Until something changes, the Big Ten deserves all the heat it is taking.
NCAA Football Handicapping: Teams Out of the Playoff Hunt
by Trevor Whenham - 9/10/2014
One of the interesting challenges of handicapping college football this year is that no one has ever seen the new playoff system in action, so we don’t know what to expect. We can look at what likely would have happened in past years as a guide, but we’ll only really know for sure what the impact will be once it has played out because every season is so different.
NCAA Handicapping: Big Ten Struggles in 2014
by Trevor Whenham - 9/10/2014
It has definitely been the worst of times for the Big Ten so far this season. It really couldn’t have gone much worse. First, Wisconsin came from ahead to lose to LSU and ignited a really odd quarterback story in the process when it was very unclear why Joel Stave wasn’t playing.
College Football Power Rankings: the Ferringo 15
by Robert Ferringo - 9/9/2014
As I pointed out in my initial offering, the first month of the season is by the most difficult for our profit-power rankings because it is impossible to real know what you’re going to get out of teams – and subsequently what people expect out of them – until you see them play a couple games. But I expect a big bounce back this week and more success going forward.
College Football Betting Trends that Emerged in Week 2
by George Monroy - 9/9/2014
The second week of college football action was highlighted by a marquee Top 10 matchup between the No.3 Oregon Ducks and the No. 7 Michigan State Spartans. The matchup ended up in a rout as Oregon scored the last 28 points of the game and walked away with a 19-point victory. The magnitude of the win was immediately felt across the nation, and on Monday morning the Ducks bumped Alabama from the No. 2 spot in the rankings even though the Crimson Tide had a 41-point victory of their own.
NCAA Football Odds Week 3: Taking a Look at the Biggest Favorites on the Board
by George Monroy - 9/9/2014
The college football season isn’t even three weeks old yet, and already we have an interesting trend forming—large favorites are covering. NCAA football is known for its massive spreads, as evidenced by its two 50-plus-point lines during the first two weeks of action Betting on those lines can be a scary proposition for gamblers, because what incentive does a team have to win by 50 points, instead of 45, when the game goes deep into the fourth quarter?
NCAA Football Predictions: Week 3 Opening Line Report and Picks
by Alan Matthews - 9/8/2014
If you are a fan of the Big Ten in football, all I can say to you is my condolences. There will not be a Big Ten team in the first College Football Playoff. That's just fact after what happened this past weekend. Michigan State's defense was shredded at Oregon, but at least the Spartans didn't embarrass themselves. They played pretty well for a half.
Free College Football Pick for Thursday: Louisiana Tech vs. North Texas
by CarbonSports - 9/8/2014
We are already in Week 3 of the college football season and it kicks off with two great games on Thursday night. We've got a Conference USA matchup between Louisiana Tech and North Texas up first, while the undefeated BYU Cougars host Houston a little later on. Bettors will be looking to get down on these two games as the excitement for another full weekend of football action approaches, but I believe only the first one provides the best betting option for padding your bankroll.
Free College Football Pick for Friday Toledo vs. Cincinnati
by CarbonSports - 9/8/2014
In an odd scheduling quirk, this is actually the Bearcats first game of the season and you'd better believe they've been chomping at the bit to get on the field and get their season going. Cincinnati has spent two weeks watching everyone else hit the field while they've been stuck playing against one another the entire time and odds makers expect that extra rest will help the Bearcats win by double digits here.

NCAA Football Picks and American Athletic Conference Week 2 Betting Report
by Dave Schwab - 9/3/2014
The AAC opened its second season of play last week, and while Temple probably pulled off the biggest upset by stunning Vanderbilt 37-7 as an 8.5-point road underdog after winning just two games all last year, I came up short on my ‘pick of the week’ when UCF lost to Penn State 26-24 as a two-point favorite in Dublin, Ireland.
NCAA Football Betting: Fading the Top 25 Weekly Free Picks
by Aaron Smith - 9/3/2014
Sometimes you are the hunter and sometimes you are the hunted. Unfortunately for the picks in this Fading the Top 25 series, it was the latter last weekend. Navy +16.5 absolutely should have cashed as they outplayed Ohio State for the majority of the game and actually led for more than half of the game. Ohio State scored two very late touchdowns to win by 17 points.
