Top Betting Picks: Titans, College Football Insights, and NFL Analysis

Sports betting, especially when it comes to the NFL and college football, is a wild ride. Our betting guys, Zac Jackson and Jon Greenberg, didn’t have the best week last time, but they’re back with new picks and a few opinions.

This time, they’re looking at everything from MAC games to big NFL matchups. If you’re deep into betting or just dipping your toes in, you’ll find something useful in their breakdowns.

Mid-American Conference Showdown: Miami (Ohio) vs. UNLV

Jon Greenberg’s first pick is Miami (Ohio) hosting UNLV at Yager Stadium. UNLV’s off to a 3-0 start, but they’re only 2.5-point favorites over the 0-2 Redhawks, which feels odd.

Betting Strategy

Greenberg says skip the spread and look at the under 49.5. He thinks UNLV’s time zone change will drag down the scoring, so the under seems safer.

Oregon Civil War: Ducks vs. Beavers

The Civil War in Oregon is back. The Ducks look great, while the Beavers are having a rough go.

Greenberg expects a lot of points here and likes the over 55.5. It’s hard to argue with that logic.

Big Ten Matchup: Michigan vs. Nebraska

Michigan comes in as a 2.5-point favorite against Nebraska. Greenberg isn’t sure which side to take, but Zac Jackson has some thoughts.

Jackson’s Take

Jackson’s wary of this one. He gets why the line leans Michigan, especially since Nebraska’s Dylan Raiola still hasn’t proved much against real competition.

State of Ohio vs. State of Florida: Kent State at FSU

Kent State, fresh off a tough loss, faces Florida State next. FSU’s had extra rest, which can’t hurt.

Jackson’s Pick

Jackson’s a bit shocked by the line and grabs the Seminoles at -45.5. He’s expecting Florida State to roll here.

ACC Showdown: North Carolina vs. UCF

Jackson also takes a stab at North Carolina vs. UCF. He’s on North Carolina at +7, mostly because he trusts Bill Belichick over Scott Frost in a coaching battle.

Duke vs. N.C. State

Jackson likes Duke at -3.5 against N.C. State. Duke’s put money into the program and their offense can move the ball.

Big Ten Late-Night Game: USC vs. Michigan State

USC versus Michigan State should be a shootout. Jackson’s on the over 56.5, pointing to Michigan State’s rough defense and USC’s firepower.

NFL Insights: Cowboys vs. Bears

Switching to the NFL, Greenberg looks at Cowboys vs. Bears. Most folks on BetMGM like the Cowboys, but Greenberg’s eyeing the over 50.5 for a high-scoring tilt.

Bengals vs. Vikings

Greenberg goes against the grain and takes the Vikings at -3 at home. He thinks new running back Jordan Mason will have a breakout game.

Underdog Pick: Titans vs. Colts

Jackson and Greenberg both land on the Titans at +3.5 against the Colts. Maybe it’s a risky pick, but they see Tennessee covering.

Play of the Month: Green Bay vs. Cleveland

Jackson’s play of the month is Green Bay vs. Cleveland. He’s on the under 41.5, since both defenses are tough and the offenses aren’t exactly clicking.

Jets vs. Buccaneers

Jackson also likes the Jets at +7 against Tampa Bay. He points to the Bucs’ banged-up offensive line and a short week as reasons to fade them.

Monday Night Football: Ravens vs. Chiefs

For Monday night, Jackson’s taking the over 52.5 in Ravens vs. Chiefs. He’s expecting a bit of a shootout.
