It is time for the College Football National Championship. Will the Indiana Hoosiers complete their story? Or will Miami return to the mountaintop once again?

Here are my plays for the College Football National Championship.

Check out the latest episodes of the JCPod for my full breakdowns and analysis. All odds are a mix/the best number from FanDuel, DraftKings, and BetMGM.

Straights

This game originally opened at -6.5 points, and is now moved all the way up to -8.5 points. Miami is a very good and very talented team, so they can definetly keep this game close as long as they do not shoot themselves in the foot. It’s a little hard not to be biased and take Indiana however, especially since we have been betting on them regularly for the last two seasons. To go along with that, they have just been on an absolute tear this season. These last three games have been a run of Ohio State, Alabama, and Oregon. Indiana managed to look great in all three of these games, and they have proven to just be an absolute machine of destruction on the field.

I am just a tad bit nervous about how big this number got to, but it’s just so hard not to take Indiana after how dominant they have been this whole season. If Miami is able to play a clean game, this should be a very fun and thrilling game. If Miami has turnovers or other issues on offense, it could end up being a long game for them. 

Official bets:

Indiana -8.5 (-105)

– Indiana first half over 13.5 points (-140)

– Indiana 4th quarter -1.5 (-104)

Props

There are a couple props that I like in this game for those who are able to participate.

– Mark Fletcher longest rush over 15.5 yards (-114)

Carson Beck under 1.5 rush yards (-140)

Fernando Mendoza 3+ pass touchdowns (+205)

– Charlie Becker over 46.5 receiving yards (-114)

Parnell’s Nasty Boy Parlay Play of the Day

College has been rough on the Nasty Boys last two seasons. We have one final Nasty Boy to end the season. It’s do or die, so let’s see if we can make some magic happen

I was able to get odds of +957 boosted to +1244 with a 30% boost:

  • Carson Beck under 1.5 rush yards (-140)
  • Indiana – Miami over 49.5 total points (+118)
  • Fernando Mendoza over 3+ passing touchdowns (+205)
  • Charlie Becker anytime touchdown (+135)

Let’s have a DAY! PLEASE GAMBLE RESPONSIBLY!
