College Football Week 11 Predictions: Colorado, Georgia Among Best Bets for 11/09
- Check my top 7 NCAA football Week 11 predictions ahead.
- Pittsburgh and Iowa State are among the teams that we predict to bounce back.
- Things are shaping up nicely for Coach Prime in Colorado.
- Georgia is just a 2½-point favorite versus Ole Miss.
- BetUS Sportsbook has all the latest college football Week 11 odds.
Let’s make it a November to remember by betting (or fading if you prefer) my college football picks for Week 11. It is hard to fathom that we are 11 weeks into the season.
Really, it is 12 weeks because of that whole Week 0 thing which still remains super weird because the games actually count. The point is we only have about one month remaining to bet on college football during its regular season.
Let’s make it count and hopefully in the bank account.

7 College Football Picks Against the Spread to Bet on Week 11
1. Pittsburgh (-7½) Bounce Back Against Virginia
I know it doesn’t feel great backing a team coming off a 23-point loss. That’s what happened to Pitt against SMU. Please don’t Google who I picked on that one.
That said, Virginia is not exactly lapping teams as the squad is coming off a 41-14 blowout loss to North Carolina. This feels like a perfect bounce-back spot for Pitt, like the day after a long night out.
I still think Panthers is a solid team, especially when Eli Holstein is healthy. Bet online on Pitt to cover the 7½-point spread versus Virginia.
Bet This Pick: Pittsburgh -7.5
2. Bet Iowa State (-3) Against Kansas
Yes, Iowa State is coming off one of the more shocking losses of the college football season after being stunned by Texas Tech in Week 10. To me, that’s even more reason to back Iowa State against Kansas at the BetUS Sportsbook.

Kansas got up for the rivalry game against Kansas State, but this is not a good team. Iowa State should be a double-digit favorite versus Kansas.
3. Duke +3 to Cover ATS Versus NC State
If you were just scoreboard watching, it looks like Miami blew out Duke, but the real ones know. Miami was trailing in this matchup into the third quarter until Cam Ward happened.
This should give Duke some confidence heading into a much more winnable game against NC State. Take Duke to cover the +3 in the NCAAF odds.
4. BYU (-4 ½) the Stronger Side in Big 12 Clash vs Utah
I am not sure what BYU can do to get more respect in the NCAA football lines at this point. BYU is just a 4½-point favorite against Utah.
This would be an okay spread if this was the Utes team we thought we would see. This is a 4-4 Utah team with an inconsistent freshman quarterback.
Take the Cougars to cover the spread and remain the lone undefeated team in the Big 12.

5. Coach Prime’s Colorado (-3½) Cruise at Texas Tech
Texas Tech upsetting Iowa State in Week 10 had to have had Coach Prime smiling somewhere on his fishing boat during the Buffs bye week. It helps the Buffs for several reasons.

The most obvious is that Colorado is very much in contention to make the Big 12 title game. Secondly, Colorado is unlikely to take Texas Tech lightly given the team’s recent upset.
To paraphrase Coach Prime: look good, feel good, bet good. Look for Colorado to cover the 3½-point spread versus Texas Tech in the NCAAF lines.
6. Georgia (-2½) Covers Against Ole Miss
Bettors can thank Georgia’s scare against Florida for this crazy close spread in the college football betting odds. The challenge is Carson Beck has looked like the football version of “Space Jam” where the Monstars steal his powers in the first half of games.
Ole Miss has created an inflated reputation based on beating up on the mediocre teams on their schedule. Look for the Dawgs to cruise as they cover ATS against Ole Miss.
Bet This Pick: Georgia -2.5 (-115)
7. Michigan (+14) Gives Indiana a Scare
I don’t want to pick against America’s new sweetheart, but I think Indiana could be in for a close fight against Michigan. Indiana has been the better team this season, but the Hoosiers’ schedule has not exactly been crazy.
Look for Indiana to squeeze out a win, but go with Michigan to cover in college football picks ATS.
