College football betting has a busy weekend ahead. Conference play continues to weed out the weak, and knowing where to lay your bets is getting tougher each Saturday. Here are two of this weekend’s notable matchups . Texas Longhorns at Oklahoma State Cowboys (+8.5, 52) The Texas Longhorns march closer to a shot at the BCS title but have to face a feisty rival in OSU. Texas thumped Missouri 41-7 last weekend and now have another road test in Stillwater. The Longhorns showed that their defense...
Free Football Picks: West Virginia at South Florida
October 30, 2009
The West Virginia Mountaineers will try to keep their Big East title options alive as they visit the South Florida Bulls this Friday night at 8:00 PM ET at Raymond James Stadium. Taking a look at the college football odds for this one, West Virginia is a 3-point favorite with the total set at 47. In the last two games the Mountaineers has needed second-half comebacks to win them. Despite suffering a concussion in the previous game, West Virginia QB Jarrett Brown played and had a rushing and passing...
Free Football Picks: Georgia v. Florida
October 30, 2009
They’re saying that Jacksonville is “neutral territory” but I think that’s a far cry when everyone from the home of the Jaguars will be trying to get a free preview of their potential future quarterback. Tim Tebow, meanwhile, has other things on his mind than the NFL draft. The Gators have strung together a 7-0 SU season, but have gone just 2-3-1 ATS during the NCAAF betting season. Can Georgia pull off a big upset after a bye week? The football odds makers don’t seem to think so,...
Free Football Picks: Cincinnati at Syracuse
October 30, 2009
Dennis Macklin’s Free Play for Saturday, October 31, 2009 is to take Cincinnati -14.5 over Syracuse: The Bearcats didn’t miss a beat spanking Louisville 41-10 behind second-string QB Collaros. Regardless of whether Pike is available or not, Cincinnati should have little difficulty blowing out bad Orange team here before BCS run of B2B2B homies vs UConn, West Virginia, Illinois and at Pittsburg. Cinn won 30-10 laugher last year when it took “The Cuse” 22 minutes to get first...

In this article he offers his free pick for the weekend on Arkansas -38: Two teams headed in completely opposite directions meet as the Arkansas Razorbacks host the Eastern Michigan Eagles.

Free Football Picks: Vanderbilt at Georgia Tech
October 30, 2009
Carlo Campanella has been one of our hottest football handicappers this year. This week he offers a free play on the Yellow Jackets – Vanderbilt (2-5) hosts a streaking Georgia Tech (7-1) squad that has scored 28 points or more in 6 of its last 8 games. They have failed to cover 6 straight home games, probably due to the fact that they have been held to 13 points or less in 6 of their 7 lined games this season. In fact, Vandy has averaged jsut 8 points per game in their 5 SEC Conference battles...
Free Football Picks: Nebraska at Baylor
October 30, 2009
Free Play for Saturday from John Anthony Sports: Take Nebraska/Baylor under the total of 45: After getting shocked 9-7 in Lincoln by Iowa State last week, the Blackshirts suddenly find a once promising season circling the drain. I GUARANTEE it wasn’t much fun at practice in Huskerland this week and you can count on Nebraska bringing their A-game this week. This is still a defense giving up just 11 ppg and the Baylor Bears haven’t recovered from the loss of soph phenom QB Robert Griffin...
Free Football Picks: Cal at Arizona State
October 30, 2009
Today’s winner from Joseph D’Amico is California over ASU: At 4-3, ASU has had a disappointing season. Their “D” was exposed against Stanford in their 33-14 loss a week ago. Cal’s offense is more explosive than Stanford’s. QB Kevin Riley has 11 TD’s, 2 INT’s and 1454 YP. California has won and covered 5 of the last 6 meetings over Arizona State. The Golden Bear’s re absolutely flattening teams that have a “lesser” defense. The Sun...
Free Football Picks: Iowa State at Texas A&M
October 30, 2009
Widow’s CFB Free Pick for Saturday is 1* on Texas A&M -7 – Iowa State is getting way too much respect from the odds makers here Saturday. That’s because they have won back-to-back games over Baylor and Nebraska, and their win over the Huskers last week has them clearly overrated right now. What the books do not understand is that Nebraska gave that game away, committing 8 turnovers in the 7-9 loss. The Cyclones were outgained 239-362 in the win, which shows that the Huskers...
