Let’s make some money this weekend.

Record last week: 2–2

Once again, we go 2–2 ATS. I got Clemson and Rutgers but lost on Iowa and Texas. Texas was close, but Baylor is just the better team. Oh well, we move on.

I don’t love this weeks slate of games. There’s a few I feel confident about, but not many lives that I just have to get in on. Here are my favorites:

Illinois (+14.5) at Minnesota

I won betting AGAINST Illinois last week, so naturally we’re going the other way this time. Illinois lost to Rutgers, which is pretty bad. Now Minnesota is obviously the better team here- Minnesota is 5–2–1 ATS this year. I love betting against teams that always cover because everything ends eventually. Illinois won’t win the game but they lose by less than 14.

UNC (-2.5) vs Wake Forest

I love UNC here. Wake’s defense gives up a million points per game and UNC can score. Add in the fact that Wake most likely isn’t going undefeated, and UNC is at home, and Wake’s defense is atrocious? I like the Heels to get the dub.

Kansas State (-24) at Kansas

Death, Taxes, and Kansas being terrible at football. Kansas hasn’t beaten Kansas State since 2008. It’s usually not a close game, either. KSU drubbed KU in 2019 and 2020. It’s about to happen again.

Michigan State (-3) at Purdue

Michigan State is for real. They’re undefeated and 6–2 ATS. Purdue is very mediocre in every aspect. This is simply a bet of choosing the better team. Roll with the Spartans .

Go win some money this weekend!
