College Football betting picks against the spread Week 3 2020

It was a disappointing week 2, as I ended up losing a few college football betting points on the truncated week. With 17 of the 21 scheduled games still going on this weekend, we have plenty of places to make up those points.

In case you don't know what I do here, I pick every FBS vs. FBS college football game of the season. Big deal, right? Lots of people make picks. Well, I do them all against the spread! I take the odds of each game and average them out at all the Vegas casinos and round to the nearest half. There will be no ties here. Ties are for the other football.

I also assign a point value based on the confidence I have in each pick. 1 means that I have little to no confidence. 5 is one I would place a decent wager on. I keep track of my record and my points back from year to year.

Games involving FCS vs. FCS schools and FBS vs. FCS schools will NOT be picked. Most of these lines are off the boards at the major casinos anyway. This year there are less of those games happening, and if there is enough demand, I make take a shot.

As we all well know, this is not an exact science. Due to the volatile nature of betting in general, this is for entertainment purposes only! I cannot be responsible for the loss of money, possessions, spouses, or limbs because of my picks. I can't have that on my conscious.

College Gameday is on the road this weekend, so there's some semblance of college football normalcy now. On to the picks!

College football betting picks afternoon week 3:

Tulsa at (11)Oklahoma State(-23.5)(2): Man, that's a lot of points. However, I'm a believer in the Cowboys this year. They are my sleeper to win the Big 12(10). Of course, I'm not picking against the Sooners, but if I had to, you can damn sure bet it would be the Pokes and not the Horns. I'll double down on that and say the Pokes cover.

(19)Louisiana(-15.5) at Georgia State(3): This line opened just after kickoff in Ames last week with the Panthers favored by 18.5. It closed with the Cajuns favored by 15.5. Have you ever seen a 34 point shift from the opening of a line? I know I haven't! I am nervous about this, but I know that Louisiana is the better team, especially with star QB Dan Ellington now graduated to the coaching staff (which is a great hire, by the way). I'll take Louisiana.

Syracuse at (25)Pittsburgh(-21.5)(4): I rag on Kenny Pickett a lot, but Syracuse is just not a good team right now. They can't keep Tommy DeVito upright and they wont be able to stop the Pitt run game. Pitt wins BIG.

Houston at Baylor(-3.5)(3): I feel more comfortable betting the over at 62.5 than the spread here, but I still think Baylor wins by a touchdown. I like Houston's receivers better, but Baylor has better players on defense (allegedly). You wont know it when both teams score above 35 though. Give me the Bears.

Liberty at Western Kentucky(-14.5)(5): The Hilltoppers gave a valiant effort against Louisville, but this is the real coming out party for Tyrell Pigrome. How I wish this game was on the DraftKings slate this week. Oh, by the way, Liberty lost their best player in program history to the NFL in receiver Antonio Gandy-Golden and the QB that threw to him. Give me WKU big.

Navy at Tulane(-7.5)(2): This is a case of overcorrection. The Green Wave were lucky to get out of Mobile with a win. I think Navy's going to be ready in this one with two weeks to prepare. There's also going to be some fans on hand and not just high-ranking Admirals. I like Navy straight up.

Boston College at Duke(-6.5)(3): This line opened at -6 and hasn't budged. I'll give the point because I liked what I saw from Duke against a very good Irish defense. Chase Brice makes the difference here. Duke by double digits.

South Florida at (7)Notre Dame(-25.5)(1): I don't like this line at all. Notre Dame is definitely capable of covering this, but I don't know that they will. It's hard to put too much on this considering we haven't seen the Bulls play yet. That said, I have to think Duke is better than USF. Give me the Domers, but just barely.

College football betting picks night week 3

(14)Central Florida(-7.5) at Georgia Tech(3): I was hoping for a higher line, but I'm confident enough in what I saw from the Bees last week in Tallahassee to still think they win this outright in Atlanta. UCF is going to have a tough time without Mackenzie Milton. Gabriel is still prone to mistakes.

(23)Appalachian State(-4.5) at Marshall(1): I wont be one bit surprised if the Mountaineers lose this. Charlotte's defense gave them some trouble last week and Marshall's line is a ton better. I have questions about Marshall's offense, but I'll say they stay at least within a field goal at home. I'll follow the Herd.

Florida Atlantic at Georgia Southern(-2.5)(3): This line opened at -3 in favor of the Owls, but the game itself is in jeopardy now after 11 players and coaches for FAU popped positive for the Rona. As of now this game is still on, and this line is still way too low. Shai Werts and Oklahoma State transfer J.D. King are for real. They're going to run for another 300 combined yards in this one. Give me the Eagles.

Troy(-3.5) at Middle Tennessee State(1): There's no word on if the Blue Raiders were actually extracted from the Blair Field turf and overnighted back to Murfreesboro. Troy? Well, they got whacked at home by Appalachian State. Both teams looked awful, but I'll take the Raiders at home. I don't know why. Home field advantage doesn't really exist in 2020.

SMU(-13.5) at North Texas(2): It's another road game for the Ponies against a mid-major. They almost lost outright in San Marcos. This isn't much of a road game just 30 minutes up I-35 in Denton, but the risk of a loss is still real here. I'll say SMU wins, but doesn't cover.

(17)Miami(FL) at (18)Louisville(-2.5)(2): This is going to be a great game. That's the only thing I know for sure. Miami hasn't had a good run in Louisville of late. In fact, they haven't won there since 1984. In the two games since, Louisville has spanked the Canes by a combined 62-20 in Louisville. The Cards want revenge for last year and I think they get it. I'll take Louisville, but not by more than a touchdown.

Best College Football Gambling Picks Against

Louisiana Tech at Southern Mississippi(-5.5)(5): Yeah, I know the Aggies haven't played a game yet, but this team is loaded with offensive talent. No one gave South Alabama a chance in Hattiesburg either. I think La Tech walks in there and wins big. They return most of a team that shut out Miami in the bowl game last year. That's Miami Florida, not Ohio.

Texas State(-5.5) at Louisiana-Monroe(2): We didn't learn much from watching the Warhawks get throttled at West Point last week. Texas State has looked good and have been a lot of fun to watch so far, but I don't know that they're ready to win a road game yet. If Brady McBride starts, I'll take the Bobcats. If not, I'll take the Bobcats and lower the bet to 1.

Best College Football Against Spread Picks

Wake Forest at North Carolina State(-2.5)(2): The Wolfpack return most skill players, including their three talented running backs, from last year. However, they haven't played a game yet. You could almost say that Wake hasn't either. Being the sacrificial lamb for Clemson didn't teach us much. However, it taught me enough. I'm going Wake straight up. Home field advantage doesn't exist, especially in North Carolina where you can't have any fans.

Stay tuned throughout the season for every college football game picked against the spread! I usually have my picks up about 24 hours before kickoff in order to get the most accurate spread possible. If I change one, I will update the article and post on Twitter if I can.

I ended up with three ones, six twos, five threes, a four, and I'm going bigger with two five pointers this week. Trying to make up for Iowa State punching a hole in my bank last week.
