This weekend, there are several exciting football games. I've included five of my favorite bets you'll want to consider as we head into November!
Favorite 5 Weekend Picks
NCAAF: Ohio State vs. Penn State: Ohio State -3.5 (-110) (Bet $110 to collect $210)
Saturday, November 2, 12:00 PM ET
As of now, Drew Allar is questionable for this game after leaving last week's game in the second half. They'd have to turn to Beau Pfibula, who looked fine against Wisconsin. But it would be his first start of his career against Ohio State.
That's too much pressure.
On the other hand, Ohio State's starting quarterback, Will Howard, will face Penn State for the first time in his career. He's from Pennsylvania and wanted to play for Penn State but was turned away. This is his chance to show them what they missed out on. Take Ohio State at -3.5.
NCAAF: Texas A&M vs. South Carolina (+115) (Bet $100 to collect $215)
Saturday, November 2, 7:30 PM ET
Texas A&M hasn't lost a game in the SEC this season. However, on the road, against South Carolina, it's about to happen.
South Carolina has been one of the best defenses in the conference. They've held opponents to just 131 points this season, under 17 points per game. The defense is elite in the secondary and has an intriguing pass rush. The run defense will be much more prepared than LSU's, knowing they're facing Marcel Reed and not Connor Weigman.
Take the home dog.
NCAAF: Louisville vs. Clemson: Over 62.5 (-115) (Bet $115 to collect $215)
Saturday, November 2, 7:30 PM
It's been a complete turnaround for Clemson QB Cade Klubnik. He's thrown for 20 touchdowns and just three interceptions. He's also got some rushing touchdowns, leading Clemson to nearly 300 points.
Meanwhile, Tyler Shough of Louisville has helped the Cardinals score 293 points in eight games and has 20 passing touchdowns with only five interceptions.
Both quarterbacks are playing at an elite level. Don't expect anything less this weekend. Take the Over.
NFL: Chicago Bears vs. Arizona Cardinals: Cardinals -1.5 (-110) (Bet $110 to collect $210)
Sunday, November 3, 4:05 PM ET
The Chicago Bears barely showed any offense against the Commanders last week. However, the team had one good drive late in the game with seconds remaining. However, the defense, which had been so good all game, let up a hail marry touchdown that cost the Bears the game.
Ultimately, I can't trust the Chicago offense under Caleb Williams. However, I can get behind Kyler Murray and the Cardinals, who dropped 28 on the Dolphins on the road.
NFL: Colts vs. Vikings: Colts +5 (-105) (Bet $105 to collect $205)
Sunday, November 3, 8:20 PM ET
The Colts finally made the move to Joe Flacco full-time at quarterback. It had to be done. The Colts are a legitimate playoff team with a reliable quarterback. Flacco proved he's capable of helping a team make the playoffs from last year's success with the Browns. The Under 45% completion percentage from Anthony Richardson wasn't doing it.
On the other hand, the Vikings have given up 30+ points in back-to-back games. They're starting to fatigue and come back to life. I'll grab the Colts at +5. They can win this game outright, but I'll play it safe with Indianapolis on the road.
