This week marks the first time in 92 games that Alabama will take the field as an underdog, as the Crimson Tide are a 6.5-point pup versus No. 1 Georgia in the SEC championship. The last time Nick Saban’s squad was getting points? Oct. 3, 2015, against … yep, Georgia. Alabama was a 1.5-point road […]
Michigan earned its way into Saturday’s Big Ten championship game with a surprisingly dominant victory over rival Ohio State last weekend. On the other hand, Iowa barely held on to win the weak West Division despite an anemic offense that struggled for much of the season. That lackluster Hawkeyes offense is the main reason why […]
Consistently underachieving. Perpetually disappointing. Inept, pathetic, dysfunctional. There are many words one could use to encapsulate the history of the Cincinnati Bengals and San Diego (er, Los Angeles) Chargers. And not one of them is positive. So why did we choose this as our featured NFL props matchup for Week 13? Several reasons: Both teams […]
Oklahoma State needs this game to try and sneak its way into the College Football Playoff. However, Baylor is no slouch, and the 5.5-point spread is an awkward number that the Bears can cover. After all, this is a neutral site game at Jerry’s World in Arlington, Texas. Should you take Baylor plus the points, […]
Bryce Young endured a wild Heisman Trophy roller-coaster ride in Week 13.

Stroud) to presumptive front-runner (after Stroud and Ohio State lost at Michigan) to probable long shot (after he struggled mightily […]

The AFC West is a wonderful jumbled mess, with all four teams within one game of each other. The Broncos beat the Chargers, who beat the Chiefs, who beat the Raiders, who beat the Broncos. If you keep following the circle, your head will explode. What we do know for certain: the winner of Sunday […]
It was a weekend of giving over Thanksgiving, with defenses giving eight different quarterbacks 300-yard games. The shootout in Dallas produced QBs No. 1 and 2, with Dak Prescott and Derek Carr going for 375 and 373, respectively. Who was third for the week? Yep, it was Andy Dalton of the Bears. Of course! Just […]
