- Coach Prime and Colorado have Kansas State on upset alert.
- Let’s take a look at my best bets around the Big 12 for Week 7.
- BetUS Sportsbook lists Colorado as a 4-point underdog versus Kansas State
Welcome to the Big 12, where making picks with the NCAA football odds is a bit like predicting what your crazy uncle will say after that third glass of Chardonnay. And yet, here you are back for another round of college football picks from yours truly.

If we take out my Colorado Buffaloes and UCF predictions this season, we are making straight cash homie just like Randy Moss talked about. Picks aside, I have not been as excited for a weekend of football since NCAA 25 brought out all the dads to your local GameStop.
Here’s a look at my best Big 12 bets for Week 7, and remember to check the latest college football news before placing your bets.
The 3 Best College Football Bets for the Big 12 in Week 7
1. Utah Covers -6 vs Arizona State as QB Circus Continues
If you know the status of Utah quarterback Cam Rising, go ahead and head to Vegas to open your own sports betting consultation business. For the second straight season, Utah head coach Kyle Willingham is treating Rising’s availability like it is a threat to national security.

There have been several indications that Rising would suit up, only for the Utes to roll out freshman Isaac Wilson. Regardless of all the drama, I still like Utah to cover ATS in the NCAAF lines for this matchup.
This is a nice bounce-back spot for the Utes coming off an upset loss to Arizona. Utah is also coming off a bye and is the veteran side in this Big 12 matchup.
Bet on Utah -6 vs Arizona State
2. Colorado +4 Hangs With Kansas State But Don’t Trust My Pick
I’ve had better luck predicting Taylor Swift’s outfit choices at Chiefs games more than Colorado this season. So, if the trend continues just fade my Buffs prediction and the words that follow.
What has been your favorite miss from my Coach Prime predictions? I liked Colorado to cover against North Dakota State and Nebraska. From there, I went on to fade the Buffs in other matchups like the one against my beloved UCF.

My terrible picks aside, I do think Coach Prime has found something with this squad. The defense and offensive line look improved. Colorado has had a bye week to prepare for this Big 12 showdown. Also, the honeymoon might be over for our favorite long-haired quarterback Avery Johnson.
This is no Pop Tarts Bowl, Avery. Take Colorado to cover the +4 college football spread.
Follow at your own risk: Bet on Colorado +4 vs Kansas State.

3. Bet BYU -5½ Over Arizona
Arizona’s offense is receiving Rams-like hype, but I am not sure this is the same unit we thought. Yes, the Wildcats have a talented quarterback in Noah Fifita.
Yet, this offense is more reliant on star receiver Tetairoa McMillan than NBC relies on T-Swift suite shots during a Sunday Night Football game.
As for BYU, I am offering $100 of BetUS money to anyone who can find a person on the street who can correctly identify the Cougars’ current record. I actually didn’t clear this with the powers at be, but my point is no one knows that BYU is a perfect 5-0.
The last time Vanderbilt beat Alabama, BYU was undefeated and went on to win the national championship.
