With the college football season winding down, I turned in a 4-3-1 record against the closing number last week with the other two picks in my Top 10 coming off the board.
CFB Live Odds and NCAAF Predictions
There is a full slate of games to bet on in Week 15, including a trio of key showdowns between ranked teams. Here is this Saturday’s Top 10 list of best bets for Scores and Stats.
(#1) Alabama Crimson Tide at Arkansas Razorbacks Picks
Best Bet: Alabama -31½
The Tide have been a betting goldmine since mid-October with a six-game winning streak against the spread. They appear to be on a mission to win every games by five touchdowns or more. That should be the case again this Saturday against 3-6 Arkansas.
(#12) Georgia Bulldogs at Missouri Tigers Picks
Best Bet: Georgia -13
The Bulldogs have not been a solid bet this season at 3-5 ATS but this is a game they should win by two touchdowns or more. Missouri has a 5-10 record ATS over its last 15 games and it is 0-5 ATS in its last five December games.
Illinois Fighting Illini at (#14) Northwestern Wildcats Picks
Best Bet: Northwestern -14½
At 2-4 SU (3-3 ATS), Illinois brings little motivation into its season finale on the road. The Wildcats still have plenty on the line coming off their first SU loss of the year. They also have a SU five-game winning streak in this Big Ten matchup while going 4-1 ATS.
(#13) Oklahoma Sooners at West Virginia Mountaineers Picks
Best Bet: Oklahoma -14
The Sooners are on a roll with a SU six-game winning streak. They failed to cover against Baylor last week but I like their chances to cover in this Big 12 tilt. Oklahoma has won its last eight games against West Virginia SU with a 5-0-1 record ATS in the last six meetings.
(#11) Coastal Carolina Chanticleers at Troy Trojans Picks
Best Bet: Coastal Carolina -13
Playing a full schedule of games, Coastal Carolina is a perfect 10-0 SU with a 8-1-1 record ATS. It is coming off its biggest win of the year as a 10 ½-point underdog against BYU. It is hard to bet against a team this hot.
Navy Midshipmen at Army Black Nights Picks
Best Bet: UNDER 38
In a game filled with so much emotion, anything can happen on Saturday. Navy has dominated this series over the last 10 meetings but Army has the better team this season. The one constant has been a low-scoring battle. The total has stayed UNDER in this last 10 games.
(#20) North Carolina Tar Heels at (#9) Miami Hurricanes Picks
Best Bet: UNDER 67
The Tar Heels are averaging over 41 points per game with Miami adding another 35 points to the total. This should be one of the better shootouts on Saturday to take the total OVER a manageable 67 points.
(#25) Wisconsin Badgers at (#19) Iowa Hawkeyes Picks
Best Bet: Iowa +1
The Badgers have only played four games this season and they have lost their last two SU and ATS. Iowa has played with much more consistency during its current SU five-game winning streak while going 4-1 ATS.
(#16) USC Trojans at UCLA Bruins Picks
Best Bet: USC -3
As one of the biggest Pac-12 rivalries, USC gets the edge this season as the overall better team. The Trojans have won four of the last five meetings SU and they should be able to cover the three points on the road this Saturday night.
Virginia Cavaliers at Virginia Tech Hokies Picks
Best Bet: Virginia +2
The lean is towards Virginia in this East Coast ACC rivalry. The Cavaliers are on a SU four- game winning streak and they have covered in their last five contests. Virginia Tech has lost its last four games SU and ATS. It was favored in three of those games.
