Matt's Week 1 NCAA Picks/ EPL Plays

Who is ready to lose some money, babay!

It’s that magical time of year again—where grown adults paint their faces, yell at televisions like the refs can hear them, and somehow convince themselves that a “lock of the week” exists. Yep, college football season is back. That means upsets, bad beats, band kids blasting fight songs off-key, and mascots doing things that probably violate NCAA bylaws.

And while your uncle may swear he “has a system” (spoiler: he doesn’t), we’re here to serve up bets that are equal parts ridiculous and maybe, just maybe, profitable. Think of me as your slightly unhinged roommate who screams “hammer the over” before you’ve even seen the spread.

So grab your foam finger, dust off that lucky hoodie that hasn’t been washed since your team’s last bowl win, and let’s dive into this week’s slate of college football bets—because Saturdays are for chaos, heartbreak, and the occasional bankroll boost.

Friday Night:

• Baylor +2 (Honestly, I like them to win outright at home)

Saturday:

• Tulane -6

• Ohio State -1.5

• FAU Maryland u60.5

• Bama -13.5

• Miami +2.5 (take em Moneyline)

And the stinkiest play of the week (and this smells awful) I stole from Tom Fornelli. Take Merrimack college (that’s right) +6.5 vs Kent State. I love this play here because Kent State may be the worst FBS team in history. DO NOT WATCH THIS GAME. Just bet it and watch the money roll in.

And for those who partake in the beautiful game, here are some Premier League bets I like this weekend:

• Chelsea to Win + u4.5 goals (parlay them)

• Sunderland to win, draw no bet (not straight up, bet it win, draw no bet)

• Everton to win, draw no bet

These two are more leans, so put a smaller unit size on it:

• Spurs/Bournemouth Both Teams to Score + o2.5 goals (parlay)

• Man City to Win

Good luck everyone! Let’s go make (or lose) some money.
