  • Check out the best way to bet on these Championship Saturday college football games below

Do you people want some honesty? I hope so because I’m about to say the truest stuff of all time. I’ve been piss-poor all season long in College Football. Maybe worse than piss-poor. I know what you’re going to say, “but Slop, you’ve demolished every other sport you’ve written about for SBD. My kids have a future because of you.” That may be true, but it doesn’t change the fact that we’re down roughly four units on the season in College Football. We can’t have that.

I can’t say it any better than Crowded House in the smash hit, “Don’t Dream It’s Over”. “There’s a battle ahead, many battles are lost, but you’ll never see the end of the road, while you’re traveling with me. Hey now, hey now, don’t dream it’s over”. Now, that means a lot of things to a lot of people, but for me, it’s about gambling. And the fact that we have a battle ahead of us this Saturday. And if we play our cards right, we could turn this season into a profitable one. My plan is to find one banger from the Penn State/Oregon matchup and another banger from the Clemson/SMU game. Feels easy.

This could easily be the most important Saturday of our lives.

Drew Allar Is An Animal

We’re not looking for a good bet this weekend. We’re looking for the greatest bet of all time. Maybe better. Lucky for us, I may have uncovered such a bet. It involves the Penn State Nittany Lions and Oregon Ducks. But we’re skipping teams here and going straight to the players.

Not just any player, though, but Penn State quarterback Drew Allar. The guy could legit play in the NFL. It says so right in this tweet.

This could easily be the greatest bet we ever make. On anything. I’m literally going to drive to Connecticut to make this bet since we can’t bet College Football player props in Massachusetts. It’s that good.

The thing with Drew is that he could easily be a 300+ guy, but Penn State’s defense is just too good. Combine that with the fact that Penn State has only really seen high school offenses, and we have the perfect storm. We’re talking paradise here.

This Saturday, the Nittany Lions are taking on the Oregon Ducks, who are likely to hang some points. When that happens, our guy Drew is going to get loose. We saw this same situation with Will Howard when he went 325+ on the Ducks. It’s just one of those things. This is the easiest money we’ll ever make gambling.

(If you can’t do NCAAF Player Props, just take the Penn State Team Total Over 22.5. That’s hitting, too.)

The Pick: Drew Allar 225+ Passing Yards (+158) – FanDuel

Kevin Jennings Is A Man Amongst Boys

SMU has been a great story all season long. Now, all that fun is culminating into a trip to Charlotte to play for the ACC Championship on Saturday. Still, even with all he’s done, their quarterback, Kevin Jennings, is still not getting the respect he deserves. Not in my opinion, at least.

We’re talking about an undefeated quarterback here, people. Have some respect.

Here’s the thing about our guy Kevin. The kid would have so many more passing yards if his defense wasn’t so good. Look it up. This SMU defense just shuts everyone down. Kevin is out there doing his thing, then all of the sudden, his coach makes him stop laying the pipe because they’re up so much. It happens almost every week, and it’s disgusting.

Now, many people would look at that as a negative, but not us. We’re smarter than that. We’ve just been waiting for the right opponent, and guess what? Our wait is over. Kevin is getting the Clemson Tigers, which is perfect for all of us Kevin-a-maniacs.

Clemson is just good enough on offense to push SMU for four quarters. That’s great for Kevin because his passing yards number is 250+ for even money. This kid has done that in seven of his last eight games. The only time he didn’t was last week when he went for 225 in three quarters. He’ll probably have this in the first half. Maybe sooner.

(If you can’t do NCAAF Player Props, just take the SMU Team Total Over 28.5. That’s hitting, too.)

As college football fans gear up for the highly anticipated conference championship games today, there are a few matchups that stand out as the best bets for those looking to place a wager on the action. With so much on the line, these games are sure to be intense and exciting, making them prime opportunities for bettors to cash in on some big wins.

One of the most intriguing matchups of the day is the SEC Championship game between the Georgia Bulldogs and the Alabama Crimson Tide. Both teams are powerhouse programs with strong defenses and explosive offenses, making this game a tough one to call. However, many experts are leaning towards Georgia in this matchup, as they have been dominant all season and have one of the best defenses in the country. With a stout defense and a balanced offense led by quarterback Stetson Bennett, the Bulldogs are poised to come out on top in this game.

Another game to keep an eye on is the Big Ten Championship game between the Michigan Wolverines and the Iowa Hawkeyes. Michigan has been one of the surprise teams of the season, with a strong running game led by Hassan Haskins and a defense that has been playing lights out. Iowa, on the other hand, has a solid defense of their own and will look to slow down Michigan’s potent rushing attack. This game could go either way, but many experts are giving the edge to Michigan in this matchup.

In the ACC Championship game, the Pittsburgh Panthers will take on the Wake Forest Demon Deacons in what promises to be a high-scoring affair. Both teams have explosive offenses led by dynamic quarterbacks in Kenny Pickett and Sam Hartman, so this game could turn into a shootout. While Wake Forest has had an impressive season, Pittsburgh’s defense has been playing at a high level and could be the difference maker in this game. Look for Pittsburgh to come out on top in a close contest.

Overall, these conference championship games are sure to provide plenty of excitement and drama for college football fans. Whether you’re looking to place a bet or simply enjoy watching some high-stakes football, these matchups are not to be missed. So grab some snacks, settle in on the couch, and get ready for a day of thrilling college football action.
