College Football Conference Championship Weekend: "Bear Bets"
College football conference championship weekend is here, and I’m excited to share my top picks and gambling nuggets with you. As always, I’ll be making real wagers, so if you’re looking to throw some money down on the big games, I’ve got you covered. Here are my favorite wagers for Week 15:
Big 12 Championship Game
- Iowa State vs. Arizona State (noon, ABC)
I think Iowa State will reverse their close-game losses this season and come out on top against a one-dimensional ASU offense. PICK: Iowa State (+2) to lose by fewer than 2 points, or win outright
SEC Championship Game
- Georgia vs. Texas (4 p.m., ABC)
Georgia has struggled with consistency this season, but I think they’ll come out on top against Texas, which has struggled with their offense. PICK: Georgia (+2.5) to lose by fewer than 2.5 points, or win outright
ACC Championship Game
- Clemson vs. SMU (8 p.m., ABC)
Clemson’s front seven could be a problem for SMU, and I think the Tigers will come out on top. PICK: Clemson (+2.5) to lose by fewer than 2.5 points, or win outright
Underdogs to Play on the Moneyline
- Iowa State +110
- Georgia +120
- Clemson +120
- Marshall +175
Remember, "The less you bet, the more you lose when you win!"
