This is a pretty light week for college gridiron contests (though we do have some SEC conference games). YB's Matt Wiesenfeld thinks there is something here as these formal Big 12 rivals reconnect at Mizzou.
Yes, these are two of the worst teams in the NFL. Yes, both lost their opening games and yes, both have rookie starting quarterbacks. This game might be a car crash, but as bettors it might be hard to look away.
Week 1 in the NFL was fascinating, beginning and ending with upsets in prime time. YB's Matt Wiesenfeld is here with a quick look at some of the stuff we saw and what it means, for betting purposes.
Week 2 of the College Football season saw Alabama lose at home. That in itself makes it a bit of a wild week. What have we learned that we can apply to upcoming wagers? YB's Matt Wiesenfeld answers.
These teams met last season with Texas A&M coming out on top in a very low-scoring game. Both of these programs have lots of scrutiny and only one is going to come away from this one feeling good about themselves.
The interesting thing about Week 2 of college football is that we now have at least one data point for all of these college teams. YB's Matt Wiesenfeld puts this info to work, for you.
The Philadelphia Eagles had a great season last year. With QB Jalen Hurts leading the way they almost won the Super Bowl. This year is going to be a different challenge with new coordinators and more.
The movement on the Nebraska-Colorado game from the opener to now has been staggering. But YB's Matt Wiesenfeld has the play.
This is a pretty interesting matchup, but we might not see the best of San Francisco in the opener. Their top defender is just now joining the team after a holdout and their quarterback is coming back from surgery.
The Miami Dolphins and Los Angeles Chargers are a couple of teams everyone is hot about coming into the season, and they will be forever linked by the fact that the Dolphins could have selected QB Justin Herbert over Tua Tagovailoa a few drafts back.
A divisional game to start the season is always a good one, especially for bettors, says YB's Matt Wiesenfeld. It is interesting how quickly the Bengals kind of left the Browns in their dust on their rise, isn’t it?
This week we had to wait until the end of Monday to close off the college football week. It was definitely worth the wait though as we got a massive upset courtesy of Duke Monday night. YB's Matt Wiesenfeld has tips for smart bettors going forward.
This game has so many great angles of interest — top-rated teams, revenge, master and apprentice — but perhaps the biggest is that these are simply two of the biggest brands in the sport and we should get a raucous environment down in Tuscaloosa.
The NFL is still a week away, but we are finally getting a full weekend of football. No more of this Week 0 mumbo-jumbo. We have some good games too with some battles for supremacy between the ACC and the SEC.
Easily the highest-profile game of Week 1, for many reasons. Not only do we have a couple of Top 10 teams, but ones that met last season in a game that was decided by a single point.
This is one of several ACC vs. SEC matchups throughout the season. There is some history too with this being the fifth meeting of these two programs since 2013 — South Carolina has won and covered in three of four.
These teams meet fairly often and this season there is quite a lot on the line for both. For Boise State, maybe they could parlay a big season into a new conference invite, while the Huskies are legit playoff contenders as they exit the Pac-12.
The Kentucky Wildcats are probably never going to compete for the SEC Championship or a college football playoff berth, but since Mark Stoops took over the program they have had a lot of success and they have become a team that nobody really wants to play.
It has been a very long time since any of the service academies — Army, Navy or Air Force — have been truly relevant in college football. Nevertheless, YB's Matt Wiesenfeld has a fascination with the Commander in Chief Trophy, awarded to whoever wins the most of these very specific games on the annual schedule.
There is nothing wrong with a classic "Spartans" vs "Trojans" to begin the season, right? YB's Matt Wiesenfeld knows it sounds like a fair fight (historically) but this is really just a tune-up for a season of very high expectations for USC.
The first game of the 2023 season kicks off overseas with Navy and Notre Dame meeting in Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland. YB's Matt Wiesenfeld has the pick.
Notre Dame has had seven Heisman Trophy winners, tied for the most all time with Ohio State and Oklahoma. They have not won one since 1987, though. Does that change this season? YB's Matt Wiesenfeld knows.
The Michigan has won the last two Big Ten titles and made the college football playoffs and there is every expectation that this year's team is as good or better than those were. So YB's Matt Wiesenfeld asks: Where's the Heisman love for QB J.J. McCarthy?
Winning the Heisman as a wide receiver is difficult. Only five have ever done it so far, but with the game changing that number is going to keep going up more in the years to come, possibly as soon as this season.
It is getting harder and harder to win the Heisman Trophy as a running back. But YB's Matt Wiesenfeld has one you would be smart to consider for a Heisman wager.
