Under 56.0(-110)

Reasoning

Tuesday’s MACtion brings us an episode of our favorite game show, “Know Your Directional Michigan Schools”. In today’s episode, we have Western Michigan (give yourself points if you said Broncos, wearing brown and gold) traveling to Central Michigan (points for Chippewas, and for maroon and gold). The homestanding Chipps come into this game riding a long, painful losing streak of 5 games, and that losing streak coincides with them losing their quarterback. Western Michigan, on the other hand, has done well against the bottom of the MAC, but has taken consecutive losses to a couple of the better teams, Bowling Green and Northern Illinois. The Broncos are one game away from bowl eligibility, and what an exciting mid-December bowl that will be, right? So what about Tuesday’s MACtion? My Western Michigan vs Central Michigan pick is the game total under 56.

First, we have less than ideal weather. Mt. Pleasant is slated for some light rain, temps in the 40s, and some wind. That’s not good for scoring. Second, both of these teams are sluggish on offense. For Central Michigan, they have been atrocious since losing their QB. The Chipps have scored a total of 30 points over the past 3 weeks, and while the Broncos do not boost a good defense by any means, I just don’t think the Chippewas have a lot of competency on that side of the ball. Likewise, Western tends to play the game very close to the line of scrimmage, and even their passes are short and quick. They are largely inefficient on offense, and I think we might be looking at more drives ending in kicks than in touchdowns. Maybe the Broncos can get 30 points on the board, but I wouldn’t expect much more than that, barring some goofy plays where the defenses or special teams score. I doubt the Chipps can match. This seems like a low-scoring slog to me. Give me the under.

Western Michigan vs Central Michigan Prediction: Under 56 (-110) available at the time of publishing. Playable at that number.

Point Spread Pick

Ole Miss -6.5(-110)

Reasoning

While this is a game where the number projects to be in line with how I view both teams, what we’re getting here is one of the best spots of the entire season. Ole Miss will enter the penultimate week of the college football regular season off a much-needed bye after having hosted Georgia in Week 11. The Rebels should be rested and ready to take on a trip to the swamp for a meeting with Florida. On the other side, the Gators will be in the midst of one of the toughest 5-game stretches that you will ever see in this sport. Florida will be coming off games against Georgia, Texas and LSU, while still having a look-ahead spot to Florida State in Tallahassee the following week. By this point in time, the Gators will likely be beaten, battered and bruised by the toughest schedule in the nation, and head coach Billy Napier could even be fired. With 2 weeks to prepare for this game, let’s back Ole Miss to make a statement on the road.

College Football Picks This Week

With so many conferences and hundreds of matches played every weekend, the biggest test with any college football picks is unearthing those hidden gems. Here at Pickswise, that is exactly what we do. By focusing on the Power conferences and the Top-25 teams, along with a select number of other matches, our experts can focus on the key games and leave no stone unturned in our research. Pickswise is the home of free NCAAF picks, and we break down all of today’s college football action, with each pick coming with accompanying analysis, including all of the key stats, trends, and reasons for our pick.

Be sure to check back each week during the season for all of our top college football picks today.

Expert College Football Picks Against The Spread (ATS)

The most popular college football pick is against the spread (ATS). Against the spread betting isn’t about picking a winner of the football game, it’s about picking the team who will cover the spread.

Let’s say you bet your money that Team A covers the spread (wins by a certain amount of points), Michigan State -6.5 for example. Or that Team B will cover the spread (keep the game closer than oddsmakers expect), Ohio State +6.5. If Michigan State beat Ohio State 30-27, then Ohio State covers the spread, and underdog backers are cashing tickets with +6.5 on Ohio State.

Against-the-spread betting is extremely popular in football and that’s one of the main reasons why it’s one of the most popular college football picks on our site.

When Do You Post Your College Football Picks

We post our college football picks for this weekend a couple of days before the scheduled match. We post our picks early enough so that you can digest the information, do your own research into the match, and make sure you get the best lines and odds for that particular pick. Like anything in sport, some things are unpredictable, and on occasion, we may choose to delay posting a pick if there is something like a key injury or likely conditions that could have an impact on the outcome of the match, or our pick itself. Check back leading up to the weekend every week throughout the season to see what NCAAF Picks we have for today.
