College Football Picks For Week 4

Dan Karpuc: BYU +9.5 (-114, FanDuel)

BYU has beaten Sam Houston 14-0, Southern Utah 41-16 and then went to Arkansas and earned an awesome 38-31 victory. Former USC and Pitt starter Kedon Slovis has accounted for nine touchdowns (six passing, three rushing) with just one interception so far, and I have more question marks about Kansas’ ability to cover since they beat Missouri State 48-17, Illinois 34-23 and got by winless Nevada 31-24 last week. I can see this being another high-scoring affair, but I think BYU will keep it close.

Kate Constable: Washington -21 vs. Cal (-110, Caesars) 

How good is Michael Penix Jr.?! That’s a rhetorical question because he’s really, really good. He’s thrown for over 400 yards and at least three touchdowns in all three games thus far, tallying 12 total TDs to just one interception. The Huskies lead the country in passing yards per game by nearly 100 yards, thanks thanks to Penix absolutely dissecting defenses.

That said, Cal is ranked No. 7 in the country in opponents passing yards per game. And while that looks great on paper, the passing offenses the Golden Bears have faced aren’t anything to write home about. Last season, Cal allowed 282.9 yards through the air and I expect that to look more like the norm for that team going forward. Cal has also relied a ton on its run game and stopping the run is a major strength of the Huskies defense. This is going to be a lopsided affair, so head over to Caesars to grab this line at -21 because it’s moved to -21.5 everywhere else.

Brad Pinkerton: Ole Miss at Alabama u57 (-112, BetRivers)

Honestly, I'm not seeing much outstanding NCAAF value early in the week, so check back later to see if I've found something I like better. That said, this number is a tad high given that most books are at 56.5, with FanDuel already jumping down to 55.5. I wouldn't be surprised to see that number move even lower by kickoff. Plus, I'm not going to trust Alabama to hit any overs until they get their QB situation figured out, and even then, this team could keep printing us money on the under until the books adjust accordingly.

About College Football Model Picks

College football model picks are predictions generated by BetQL's sophisticated statistical models and analyze a vast array of data points to forecast the outcomes of college football games. These models employ advanced algorithms and machine learning techniques to process and analyze historical data, team and player performance metrics, game-specific variables, and other relevant factors.

Unlike human experts, college football models are not influenced by biases, emotions, or personal opinions. They rely solely on the data and patterns they uncover during their analysis. These models can consider a wide range of variables simultaneously and identify complex relationships that may not be evident to the naked eye.

College football model picks are highly regarded for their ability to provide objective and data-driven insights. They can help fans, bettors, and analysts make informed decisions by identifying potential upsets, spotting undervalued teams, and estimating the likelihood of certain outcomes. These picks are often used as a valuable resource alongside expert opinions and personal analysis to enhance the accuracy of predictions and increase the chances of success.

It's important to note that while college football models can provide valuable predictions, they are not infallible. The dynamic nature of the sport, unexpected variables, and the inherent limitations of statistical modeling mean that upsets and unpredictable results can still occur. Therefore, it is advisable to treat model picks as a helpful tool in decision-making rather than as definitive guarantees. Conducting additional research, considering other factors, and exercising personal judgment remain important components of the decision-making process.

Types Of College Football Bets

There are several types of college football bets that fans and bettors can engage in. Some of the common types include:

Point Spread Betting: This type of bet involves wagering on the point difference between the two teams at the end of a game. The favorite team is assigned a negative point spread, while the underdog team receives a positive point spread. For a bet on the favorite to be successful, they must win by a margin greater than the point spread. Conversely, a bet on the underdog will win if they win the game outright or lose by a margin less than the point spread.

Moneyline Betting: Moneyline bets involve wagering on the outright winner of a college football game, regardless of the point difference. The odds are assigned to each team, indicating the potential payout for a correct prediction. Favorites have negative odds, while underdogs have positive odds.

Over/Under Betting: This type of bet, also known as the total bet, involves predicting whether the total combined score of both teams will be over or under a specified number set by the sportsbook. Bettors can wager on whether the total points scored in a game will exceed or fall short of the set line.

Futures Betting: Futures bets are long-term wagers that focus on predicting outcomes that will occur at a later stage in the season, such as conference champions, national champions, or individual player awards. These bets are typically placed before the season begins and can offer substantial payouts if the prediction proves correct.

Parlay Betting: Parlay bets involve combining multiple individual bets into a single wager. To win a parlay bet, all individual selections within the parlay must be correct. Parlays offer the potential for higher payouts but are more challenging to win due to the increased number of correct predictions required.

Prop Betting: Proposition bets, or prop bets, are wagers on specific events or occurrences within a college football game that do not necessarily affect the final outcome. Examples include betting on which team will score first, the total number of touchdowns, or the performance of a particular player.

These are just a few of the many types of college football bets available. It's important to familiarize yourself with the specific rules and terms associated with each bet type and to exercise responsible gambling practices.
