Last week turned out to be quite fruitful for our College Football expert pickers, with some surprising outcomes.
The majority arrived with a successful record and are now entering Week 11 with the intention of building upon their current momentum.
Although this weekend may not feature numerous high-profile games, it holds potential significance for individuals exploring Michigan sportsbooks.
Let’s take a glance at the thoughts of leading experts on the Week 11 lineup of games.
ESPN’s SVP, Stanford Steve & The Bear
During Week 10, The Bear and Stanford Steve made an impressive set of three flawless picks, while Scott Van Pelt didn’t fare as well with his selections.
With only a 4-6 record, the ESPN trio was hindered by SVP.
Van Pelt, determined to make a comeback, is fond of supporting underdogs, yet is unafraid to engage in high-stakes encounters.
The Bear and Stanford Steve have decided to become more discerning and limit themselves to a 3-game schedule.
SVP (4-3)
- The Arkansas Razorbacks are favored by 3.5 points against LSU, and they are expected to win the game.
- Pittsburgh defeats Virginia with a 4.5 point margin.
- Marshall defeats Appalachian State (+1)
- Georgia dominates Mississippi State with a 16-point advantage, resulting in a loss for Mississippi State.
- Oregon is the favorite to win by 13 points against Washington.
- Texas Tech is favored by 3.5 points against Kansas and is predicted to win.
- TCU +7 against Texas (Win)
The Bear (1-2)
- Clemson defeats Louisville with a 7-point advantage.
- Texas Tech is favored by 3.5 points against Kansas and is expected to win.
- North Carolina (Loss) with a point spread of Wake Forest -3.5.
Stanford Steve (1-2)
- UNLV loses to Fresno State with a score of -9.5.
- The bet is to win if the Army score is under 46 against Troy.
- Kansas State defeats Baylor with a score of -2.5.
Barstool college football picks
Dave Portnoy had an average week, not particularly good nor bad.
In Week 10, the Barstool founder achieved a 10-8 record, ensuring that his overall season’s performance remained slightly above .500.
On the other hand, Dave’s companion, Big Cat, has been gradually narrowing the gap in the season rankings. During the past week, Big Cat’s performance of 20-16-1 allowed him to surpass Dave, achieving a success rate of 50.8 percent for the year. Meanwhile, Rico continues to lag significantly behind both of them.
This week, Portnoy is opting for a smaller card in an effort to regain his position at the top.
Despite this, all three of them failed to predict their “Lock of the Week”.
Portnoy (4-7-1)
- USC is predicted to win against Colorado with a point spread of -34.5.
- Ohio State is predicted to defeat Indiana with a margin of 40.5 points.
- Georgia Tech loses to Miami with a score of -1.5.
- Iowa is predicted to win against Wisconsin by a margin of 1 point, making it the Lock of the Week. This wager turned out to be successful.
- Ole Miss predicted to win by 11.5 points against Alabama.
- Louisville was defeated by Clemson with a 7.5-point margin.
- Oregon fell short against Washington, losing by a margin of 13.5 points.
- TCU defeats Texas with a score of -7.
- The Texas vs. TCU game ended with a loss, as the final score was over 67 points.
- North Carolina defeated Wake Forest with a score of -3.5.
- The Arkansas and LSU game ended in a push, with a +3 spread.
- Arkansas versus LSU had a total score over 63, resulting in a loss.
Big Cat’s Lock of the Week
TCU versus Texas resulted in a loss for the Over 67.
Rico’s Lock of the Week
Washington State is favored to win by 7 points against Arizona State.
Cash The Ticket Picks
During the college football season, the Cash The Ticket duo faced challenges, yet Jim Costa and Mike Valenti managed to achieve winning records in Week 10.
Costa achieved a record of 5 wins and 3 losses, while Valenti had a record of 3 wins and 2 losses with his selections.
There has been nothing more certain than fading the “Costa Lock.”
Last week’s featured game resulted in Tennessee moving to a 0-4 season record when he predicted that they would cover against Georgia.
Valenti deviates from his typical underdog approach this week as he opts for several significant favorites. Costa, on the other hand, has chosen to delve into the first-half spread domain.
Valenti (1-6-1)
- TCU defeats Texas with a score of -7.
- Tennessee is expected to beat Missouri by a margin of 20.5 points (Victory).
- The Arkansas vs. LSU game ended in a push with no winner. The spread was +3 for Arkansas.

- Rutgers +9.5 vs. Michigan State (Win)
- UCLA was defeated by Arizona with a 19.5-point difference.
- The UCLA vs. Arizona game ended with a loss for the Over 77 bet.
Costa (4-3-1)
- The Arkansas versus LSU game ended in a tie with a +3 point spread.
- Nebraska covers the spread of +15.5 in the first half against Michigan, resulting in a win.
