NCAA Football Week 11 NFL Week 10 Free Picks by Handicapper Doug Upstone

We have a big weekend of college football in Week 11, but few line moves in the biggest games. We'll cover those that do in college contests and in the NFL. Take a minute to review all the betting trends, our free picks and predictions (150-122-3 of late) to see what we are thinking about today. See you back here next week.

CFB - (121) GEORGIA TECH at (122) VIRGINIA 12:30 ET ACC-EX

In this ACC encounter, the total has jumped three points from 43 to 46. Georgia Tech averages only 17.1 PPG, but Virginia's defense seems to have worn down a bit in giving up 28 or more points in three of their last five outings. It would not be a surprise to see the Yellow Jackets at 20 points. The rest seems easy with the Cavaliers at 30.8 PPG and Georgia Tech conceding 29.1 PPG, obviously placing Virginia at around 30 points for a total of 50 and an "Over".

Betting Trend - 92% backing Over

Doug's Doc's Take - Play Over

CFB - (125) LOUISVILLE at (126) MIAMI-FL 3:30 ET ESPN2

Even though it appears to be a weekly question is if Miami will come to play, if they do, scoring points on them is no simple task. That is why despite Louisville ringing up 32.7 PPG, the total has come down from 53 to 49.5. Here is what I'm wondering: after two focused efforts at Pittsburgh and at Florida State, are the Hurricanes really the kind of team that can do this again? Let's go with no with the sportsbooks college football odds more likely correct, and the Cardinals are 25-9 Over in November road games.

Betting Trend - 97% backing Over

Doug's Doc's Take - Play Over

CFB - (143) VANDERBILT at (144) FLORIDA 12:00 ET ESPN

Florida's chances of winning the SEC East are virtually over after Georgia loss, making the next best reach a Super Six Bowl with a 10-2 record. No doubt they could start slow against Vanderbilt , but the Commodores have beat the spread only once this year. Those making college football picks are thinking the same as I am in lifting Florida from -24.5 to -27, as once the Gators find the end zone, they will be hungry for more. The Vandy offense, which scores only 17 PPG, will have many drives of six plays or fewer and set up Florida to keep finding pay dirt in Gainesville and the 'Dores will fall to 5-16 ATS after a loss by 17 or more points. Chomp, Chomp!

Betting Trend - 76% backing Florida

Doug's Doc's Take - Florida covers

CFB - (163) EAST CAROLINA at (164) SMU 12:00 ET ESPNU

Raise your hand if you didn't even think for a second the total in this AAC contest would not go up? (It did from 69 to 72.) Good, we agree, as SMU off their first setback of the season will keep scoring all afternoon long on East Carolina. Look for the Pirates to top out at 27 points, which means if the Mustangs score like they normally do at home (46 PPG), they move to 9-0 Over this season.

Betting Trend - 89% backing Over

Doug's Doc's Take - Play Over

CFB - (177) GEORGIA SOUTHERN at (178) TROY 3:30 ET ESPN+

This is not your typical Troy team that is competing at the top of the Sun Belt. Instead, because their defense is allowing 32.6 PPG, they have been elevated from +1 to a +3-point home underdog versus a Georgia Southern bunch that is on fire. The Eagles are on a four-game winning streak and in this stretch are averaging 338.7 rushing yards a game. That is no fun to have to defend something like that all four quarters, especially with a mediocre defense. The visitor is 8-1 ATS after running for 300 or more yards and cover again.

Betting Trend - 71% backing Georgia Southern

Doug's Doc's Take - Georgia Southern covers

NFL - (257) N.Y. GIANTS at (258) N.Y. JETS 1:00 ET FOX (side and total)

This matchup of Big Apple teams is nationally viewed as just another rotten apple. But because the city of New York and the surrounding area is filled with so many who have allegiance to one team or the other, their sheer vastness makes this confrontation of two crummy clubs (3-14 combined) seem like its important. Because of this, that is how a team like the New York Giants could go from a Pick to -2.5 over their city rivals. Though the G-Men are nowhere close to a quality outfit, after the Jets lost to then-winless Miami, they are considered a laughing stock. Once you know Gang Green is 0-6 ATS having lost four out of their last five, you will think about betting against them for NFL picks. The total has gone up from 41 to 44.5 with both defenses permitting 26 or more points, yet, I have a system that fits the Jets on the Under with a 26-6 record.

Betting Trend - 62% backing N.Y. Giants, 67% on Over

Doug's Doc's Take - N.Y. Giants cover, Lean Under

NFL - (263) CAROLINA at (264) GREEN BAY 4:25 ET FOX

After Green Bay played such an abhorrent game in Carson, Calif., and Carolina had a nice bounce-back victory over Tennessee, there are sharp and public bettors alike who more than willing to take the Panthers against the NFL odds. The 'Cats opened at +6.5 and as of Friday afternoon were down to +5. While this makes sense in theory, Aaron Rodgers very discreetly and purposely called out his teammates in the postgame press conference. History shows his voice carries a lot weight in the Packers locker room, and look for a completely different Green and Gold team to show up at Lambeau.

Betting Trend - 73% backing Green Bay

Doug's Doc's Take - Green Bay covers

NFL - (265) DETROIT at (266) CHICAGO 1:00 ET CBS

The average score of Bears game this season is 35.1 total points. Chicago is not permitting many, and Mitchell Trubisky's woes are well documented. This has sent the total from 44 to 41.5. Detroit, however, is just the opposite, they do keep the scoreboard operator busy because they score, and they have problems keeping the opposing team out of the end zone at 52.6 total points. With the total now this low, the value is in taking a higher score. Look for Chicago to feature RB David Montgomery, which helps Trubisky and this NFC North conflict lands on 43.

Betting Trend - 67% backing Over

Doug's Doc's Take - Lean Over

Public Consensus Record (2019) - 51% to 79% - 200-193-6 ATS

Public Consensus Record (2019) - 80% or Higher - 62-70-1 ATS

Line Movement Direction Record (2019) - 247-250-7 ATS
