DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/31/24)

We are onto the final day of 2024! It has been a fun season, but now we are winding down. We only have two more of these classic slates after today. This is the largest, so let's enjoy it (those frustrating opt-outs be darned). We begin in Tampa with the ReliaQuest Bowl between Alabama and […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: Bowl Games 12/28 and 12/30 2024

We get our busiest day of bowl season today with seven games. Nice, huh? I'll include Monday's pick here as well. We'll get to the rest of the bowl games on Monday to try and get a more accurate spread. Most of the players who will be in the portal are already there, but Winston […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/28/24)

This is our last big college football slate of the season. We have eight bowl games today, but DraftKings cut off the Fenway Bowl between North Carolina and Connecticut. We still hope we have seven good games going on. Opt-outs change everything. We kick off in Yankee Stadium for the Pinstripe Bowl with Boston College […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/27/24)

The biggest weekend of bowl season fills up our Friday with four bowl games. They chopped off the Navy-Oklahoma game (thank God). Our first game features two teams that shaped the playoff more than any others facing each other when Georgia Tech and Vanderbilt meet in the Birmingham Bowl. Next up is Texas Tech and […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/26/24)

I hope you all had a Merry Christmas. The bowl games will get going over the next week. We promise to have dozens of opt-outs and closer games than the first round of the expanded playoff. If that's your thing, stick around! We kick off with Detroit's Game Above Sports Bowl featuring Pitt and Toledo. […]

Power Ranking The Final Eight College Football Playoff Teams

The first round of the expanded 12-team College Football Playoff is now over and we've said goodbye to Tennessee, Indiana, SMU, and Clemson, which leaves eight teams left in the race for the national title. How do these eight teams compare to each other? Let's take a look at how the teams left in the […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: Bowl Games Week 2 (12/23 Through 12/27 2024)

The bowls start picking up in earnest after Christmas. For those spread picks, I will likely do an article per day. It is the age of opt-outs, even from teams in the playoffs. This is the most up-to-date site I've found so far. It has been a great help over the first week! I closed […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/23/24)

The bowl games start amping up in earnest after Christmas. I'll still take college football games on a Monday for the first time since Labor Day. Both bowl games today start early to ensure they don't interfere with Monday Night Football, but I'm not complaining. College football is college football. The offseason is longer than […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/21/24)

College football cleared the way for the expanded playoff to dominate the final Saturday before Christmas. We'll have plenty more bowls coming up during Christmas week, but this Saturday will be for the giant revenue-making abomination that is the expanded playoff. Hey, those NIL deals don't pay for themselves! We have three playoff games today, […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/20/24)

Friday gives us two bowl games and the first games of the expanded playoff. That makes this slate more interesting than just the early bowl games. We know the Battle for Lil' Sebastian won't have anyone opting out. Jacksonville State may have several sitting out, but we likely won't know until just before kickoff. We […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/18/24)

My picks on Saturday were irrelevant by kickoff since I was heavy on South Alabama and most of its offensive starters sat out. There was very little advanced warning leading up to the game. That could be the case again until the "important" games. We begin in Boca Raton with the Boca Raton Bowl between […]

Eight Bold Predictions For the 2024 College Football Playoffs - Blowouts Remain, Georgia Falls Flat, Texas Surges, and more

After a season of buildup and two weeks of rest, we have finally made it.

The field is stacked […]

Ranking The Best Potential CFP National Championship Matchups

We're less than a week away from the College Football Playoff beginning, with Indiana visiting Notre Dame on Friday night in the first game of the new 12-team tournament. Looking ahead, there are a number of championship matchups with varying degrees of appeal to them. Fans would care a lot more about No. 1 Oregon […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: Bowl Games Week 1 (12/17 Through 12/21 2024)

We have 10 games in this first week of bowl season, including the first four games of the expanded college football playoff. Does it make for better games early on in bowl season? Yes. Do we need three-loss teams with a chance for a championship? Not a chance. I closed out the regular season strong, […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/14/24)

Our first bowl games happen on the same weekend as the annual Army-Navy game. That gives us a little more variety than just the showdown slates. Bowl season now runs for a little over a month. That's going to take some getting used to, and not in a bad way. The first game is still […]

Ranking College Football Playoff Teams By Toughest Paths To The National Championship

The 12-team College Football Playoff is finally here, with the first-round set to kick off on Friday, December 20. It's so weird that we're about to see a playoff system in the FBS where teams could play as many as four playoff games. The bracket for the playoffs is odd. The four byes went to […]

College Football Betting Picks: Saturday, December 14, 2024 And Week 15 Results

The regular season and conference championships are over. For the first time in forever, we have the Army-Navy game coupled with a couple of bowl games on the same weekend. Oh...and they hand out this little award called the Heisman Trophy that finally isn't a QB popularity contest. One of these bowls is the Celebration […]

ESPN's College Pick Em may have ended, but now we get Pick Em on steroids in the form of Capital One Bowl Mania. All you have to do is pick the winner of all 47 bowl and playoff games and assign a point value based on the confidence in each one of them from 1 […]

NCAA College Football Power Rankings - 2024 Postseason

It turns out that demolishing the divisions in the superconferences from Hell was a good idea. Who knew? Most of the conference championship games were exciting, even if there wasn't much drama about who was getting into the first 12-team playoff. The Big 12 (16) Championship was the only game that had do-or-die pretenses. That […]

ESPN College Football Pick Em: 2024 Results RotoBaller Challenge Group

First of all, I would like to thank all 60 of you for participating in this challenge. It was a fun season, even though I didn't finish as close to the top as I would have liked. Don't worry ... Bowl Mania is coming up with another chance for bragging rights and maybe another prize […]

College Football Playoff Bracket Predictions and Picks for All 11 Games

The 2024 college football season will surely go down as one of the wildest and most unpredictable campaigns in modern history. The 2024 season was full of surprises and upsets, and it has all led up to the first-ever 12-team College Football Playoff. Fans and programs have complained that too many top-shelf teams are left […]

College Football QB Power Rankings: All 12 Quarterbacks In The CFB Playoffs

We have finally made it. The first 12-team College Football Playoff field is set and the first game will be kicking off on Friday, December 20. Amid all of the chaos and controversy with the selections and the format, the average college football fan is beyond ecstatic for this month-long event. While every position on […]

College Football 2024 Final Heisman Trophy Watchlist

We've reached the end. The college football regular season is over, aside from the annual Army/Navy game on Saturday. All the Heisman cases have been made, so the only thing left is to award the trophy. The top two this year have separated themselves from the rest of the field, so there should be no […]

College Football Playoffs Power Rankings for 2024

The field for the first 12-team College Football Playoff has now been set, and, of course, it was met with controversy, mostly surrounding SMU getting a bid over Alabama. That's a pretty silly argument—Alabama lost three times, including twice, to 6-6 teams. If the Tide wanted in, they should have beaten either Vanderbilt or Oklahoma. […]

2024 College Football Playoff Bracket Reaction - What The Committee Got Right And Wrong

The College Football Playoff Committee put themselves in an impossible situation. They ranked teams with weak schedules and/or no ranked wins too high and boxed themselves in. They couldn't get out of it and SEC teams kept losing. That's the storyline going around. What the committee ended up doing was kicking the SEC hornet's nest. […]

2024 College Football Playoff Picture, Projections, Outlook: Selection Sunday

Here we sit on the morning of the selection of the largest playoff field college football has ever seen. It feels just like I thought it would: gross. Conference Championship Week was more exciting than usual, even in games that featured teams that were already in. That's good. There was not an armageddon scenario for […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/7/24)

We only have one college football slate left that is larger than this one (December 28). Let's enjoy these before they get smaller and more difficult to navigate. We start off with the Battle of the Bricks Part 2 in Detroit for the MAC Championship. We get Iowa State and Arizona State from Jerry World […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/6/24)

All we have left before the bowl games is conference championship week. There are fewer conferences, but the NCAA split the games up this year. Having three games on Friday is a nice touch. The other six on Saturday give every game the attention it deserves. I can get on board with this change. The […]

College Football Betting Picks: Against The Spread: Championship Week (12/6 And 12/7 2024)

It has all come down to Championship Week. Of course, it's a little anticlimactic when half of the teams that will be in the playoff aren't playing this week. We still have some drama with the Big 12 (16) likely only getting the champion in. Boise State is in a position where they need to […]
