Hopefully, this is a sign of things to come as we feel we have a better handle on these teams at this point of the season, but we bounced back big-time last weekend by going 3-0-1 ATS with our CFB Best Bets and all three winners also pulling outright upsets! We won with Boston College +3 in 17-10 win at Syracuse, Georgia Tech +2 in 45-17 rout at Virginia and Stanford +13.5 in 10-7 win at Washington State (as I’ve always said: “a team can’t cover a 13.5-point spread if they only score 7” – or similar with different numbers!
The push was on Texas A&M +3 in a 38-35 loss at Mississippi. (A&M almost also pulled off an upset with a late 35-31 lead and also had a potential game-tying FG block at the end of regulation that could have forced overtime, though that might have been a blessing in disguise as we could have lost the cover in OT).
We improved to 20-16-3 ATS (55.6%) on the college football season. In addition, I also listed at the end that the last play I had dropped the prior two weeks had covered, so I gave a bonus pick on Houston +4.5 at Baylor and the Cougars won outright, 25-24, in OT. I was happy to share that with our longtime loyal followers even though it isn’t in our official posted record.
