College football best bets Week 13: BYU is in danger of another loss

Well, I bet into some MACtion last week and managed to find myself in the craziness that is midweek football in November. So why not bet into three MACtion games this week? Don’t worry, we also have some bets on games involving College Football Playoff hopefuls as well.

Last week we had a couple games come down to the wire that didn’t bounce our way. One was a push so I can’t complain too much. Hopefully we can have a good week to kick off a mini-heater to end the season.

Last week’s record: 3-4-1, -1.4 units
Season record: 44-51-4, -12.12 units, -11.2% ROI

Six plays to kick off the week. I will see if any get added later in the week, but we haven’t been as fortunate these past few weeks. As always shop around for the best price and good luck to us!

Best bets for college football Week 13

Toledo -1.5 (-110) vs. Ohio

Worst line to bet: Toledo -2 (-110)

Ohio at Toledo over 45 (-110)

Worst price to bet: Over 45 (-110)

This should be a defensive struggle, but I think my model prices this game at a field goal so getting Toledo for half that is a valuable bet. Toledo shouldn’t have too much success on the ground, but should be able to find some success through the air. At the end of the day, I don’t think Ohio is better than Toledo and this line implies as much.

Texas A&M -2.5 (-110) at Auburn

I’m not sure how Auburn finds success against this Texas A&M defense. They’re not exciting on the ground or through the air and they’re consistently losing the field position battle while Texas A&M is one of the best teams in the country in that metric. Do I have concern about Texas A&M’s flip-flopping at quarterback this year? Sure. But no matter who starts, I’m comfortable laying this price.

Worst price to bet: Texas A&M -2.5 (-115)

Arizona State -3 (-110) vs. BYU

I love this matchup for Cam Skattebo and the Arizona State rushing attack against a lackluster BYU run defense. Don’t let the rank in front of each team’s name surprise you with who is favored. Arizona State is the better team. My model believes BYU is the most overrated team in the country relative to their ranking.
