College Football in Week 13 is the second to last week of the regular season, and the week before Rivalry Week. With a couple big games this week, we will be seeing some hopes and dreams crushed from teams that were playoff hopefuls.

Here are my plays for College Football Week 13.

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

Georgia Tech moneyline (-136)

This is a massive game for Tech. If they win, they are in the ACC Championship game. This offense can be super dangerous under Hanes King, but lately that defense has been super suspect. Along with that, Tech has been playing a dangerous game, as they have been playing a lot of these games super close lately.

Pitt is a talented team. If Georgia Tech does not focus up, they for sure can get got in this game. This will probably be a close game, and I like for Tech to win by three to six points. In the case this game ends up even closer than that, I’ll just play it safe and take the money line.

Nebraska +9.5 (-125)

I am a bit nervous about this bet, but I do like for Nebraska to keep this game close at least. Penn State has truly been playing some inspired football these last two weeks, so that could become an issue. While it may be hard to win this game on the road, I do think this will be a one score game.

North Texas -18.5 (-115)

North Texas needs to keep winning to make the College Football Playoff. The 12 seed in the CFP should come from the American Athletic Conference, and North Texas is looking to be the team to claim it. I like for them to win this game by about 21-24 points.

East Carolina money line (-135)

East Carolina is coming off a huge win against Memphis. I like for them to carry that momentum over into this game against the UTSA Roadrunners. My one fear is UTSA is at home and not on the road. UTSA is a lot better when they are at home, so I will just be taking the money line to be safe in this game as well.

Parnell’s Nasty Boy Parlay Play of the Day

We did not get a hit until the last week of the season last year, so seems like we may be on that same path again. I also like all of these plays as straights.

I was able to get odds of +1067 boosted to +1338 with a 30% boost:

  • Cal money line (-148)
  • Missouri – Oklahoma under 41.5 points (-105)
  • James Madison -13.5 (-110)
  • Minnesota – Northwestern under 40.5 points (-115)

Let’s have a DAY! PLEASE GAMBLE RESPONSIBLY!
