Instead of cramming the rest of the bowl games into one article, I figured I'd split them up, with the Thursday and Friday games in this article, and predictions for the games on Saturday and Monday in one last MC&J picks piece that will drop in the near future. (All lines courtesy of Draftkings Sportsbook.) Both of these teams had their eyes on…

Sharp money has hit the board in Friday's UCLA vs Pitt showdown in the Sun Bowl. What has caused the point spread to climb in favor of the Bruins? The college football handicapping team from The GoldSheet Each weekly edition of The Football GoldSheet is normally $15, but for the holidays, you can get every edition from now through Super Bowl 57 for…

You've not been paying attention-and why would you have been?-but three OTE writers have recently become fathers, the two of us for the first time. Of course, as we all know, that comes with loads of spare time while the little potato just lies there and requires no attention or assistance from us, no sir. What follows is a set of previews of…

Two good (but mostly overlooked) teams will square off in El Paso on Friday, as the Pitt Panthers are set to take on the UCLA Bruins in the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl - a game that's not always good but has never failed to be interesting. UCLA is the clear betting favorite in this one, coming in laying 7.5 points to the Panthers. The Bruins are 6-6…

The UCLA Bruins (9-3) are trying to win their first bowl in the Chip Kelly era (est. 2018) when they play the Pittsburgh Panthers (8-4) in the Sun Bowl in El Paso, Texas Friday. Pitt has been decimated by the offseason (opt-outs and the transfer portal). While UCLA enters the Sun Bowl almost fully intact. This most certainly explains the line…

Penn State and Pitt will both be underdogs when their bowl games kick off against Pac-12 foes over the next few days, with the Nittany Lions given a bit better chance than the Panthers of closing the season on a high note. Pennsylvania's online sportsbooks generally have Penn State as a 2.5-point underdog against Utah in the Rose Bowl next Monday,…

It was a bright season - for the most part - for Chip Kelly's UCLA Bruins in SoCal. So it seems appropriate for the No. 18 Bruins to be headlining the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl against the Pitt Panthers from the ACC on Friday. UCLA's 9-3 record doesn't tell the story of how close Kelly's crew came to earning a berth in the College Football Playoff.…

No. 10 Michigan State meets No. 12 Pitt in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl on Dec. 30. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta. The game will be televised on ESPN. Pitt (11-2) won the ACC championship under coach Pat Narduzzi this season. The Panthers, however, will be without Heisman finalist Kenny Pickett. The Pitt…

Over 1000 FBS players have entered the transfer portal this cycle. That should be more than enough to create a entire starting lineup, right? We're not putting this team in a league - but if we did, I'm sure they'd win at least seven games with the right coaching staff in the SEC. Here's our attempt at putting together the best college football…

There have been 11 head-coaching hires since our last column. (Hey, someone has to keep track.) Let's dig in! From an uneven football season to a historically bad start in men's basketball, from the athletic department tumult of the past decade to everything in between, Louisville had been put through the wringer the past five years. The FBI and…

Penn State and Pitt both won every game they played in November, both got matched in bowl games against two of the top teams from the Pac-12, and both are underdogs to win - the Nittany Lions by about a field goal and Panthers by a touchdown. Pitt accepted a bid Sunday to play UCLA Dec. 30 in the Tony the Tiger Sun Bowl in El Paso, Texas,…

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish improved its record to 8-3 after destroying the Boston College Eagles last week and set up a really big rivalry game against the USC Trojans for the Jeweled Shillelagh. Despite the Notre Dame pressbox favorite bowl selection being in San Diego, a majority of national outlets have the Irish headed to Jacksonville.…

This college football bowl season has been a fun ride yet again, but the time has arrived for the serious business to commence as the New Year's Six slate kicks off on Thursday night. It begins with the Peach Bowl at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta with No. 10 Michigan State battling No. 12 Pittsburgh in a matchup featuring Big Ten and ACC…

The most wonderful time of the year has finally, almost, arrived. Week 1 of college football technically kicks off this week, with the now famous "Week 0" games taking place. And with a new college football season comes a clean slate on your betting sheet. No sit back, relax, and take a look at DraftKings' Week 0 and Week 1 college football…

Pitt (6-4, 3-3 ACC) will play its last home game of the year at Acrisure Stadium against Duke (7-3, 4-2 ACC) this upcoming Saturday. Pitt defeated Virginia 37-7 on the road in its last game and Duke defeated Virginia Tech 24-7 at home in its last game. Both teams are bowl eligible. In the past two weeks, Pitt has seen a resurgence with its…

After going 0-3 in Week 10, we bounced back with a 2-0 effort in Week 11. It's hard to believe that we've only got two more weeks left in the regular season. However, this column will continue into conference championship week and the beginning of bowl season. So we've still got plenty of time to keep the winning going. The Week 12 slate isn't…

The Syracuse Orange take on the Pittsburgh Panthers. Check out our college football odds series for our Syracuse Pittsburgh prediction and pick. The shine is off Syracuse, which started the season so brilliantly but has come crashing down to earth the past few weeks. Coach Dino Babers was riding high with an unbeaten team and a 21-10 lead over…

college football odds series for our Pittsburgh North Carolina prediction and pick. The North Carolina Tar Heels have authored a very improbable story thus far in 2022. In 2021, North Carolina was the clear preseason choice to win the ACC Coastal Division. Sam Howell was coming back at quarterback with a lot of established wide receivers. The UNC…

Redshirt sophomore linebacker Solomon Deshields (23) celebrates after a touchdown during Pitt football's game against Rhode Island on Sept. 24. Pitt head coach Pat Narduzzi said it's time for Pitt football to break some tendencies against Louisville, and they'll need to if they want to remain in the Coastal Division race. The biggest tendencies…

Let's get this party started. College football betting is finally back after an excruciating seven-month absence, with Georgia fans basking in the glow of a national championship and successful bettors longing for the days of endless kickoffs and nonstop gridiron action. Sure, Week 0 was great, but this is where the real fun begins. Week 1 in…

Each week, the Sports editorial team selects its Top 25 Division I college football teams for the Student Media Poll. The SMP is a nationwide poll featuring 122 student journalists from all Football Bowl Subdivision conferences. There are voters from 69 different schools across 34 states. The Post Sports will break down its ballots each week. Here…

Missouri executed a successful soft launch of the Luther Burden Era Thursday night, defeating overmatched Louisiana Tech 52-24 in one of the lowest profile Week 1 college football games. What did we learn about Burden? The elite wide receiver recruit can make people miss in tight spaces. What did we learn about new starting quarterback Brady Cook?…

Pittsburgh (2-1, 0-0 ACC) will be taking on Rhode Island (2-1, 1-1 CAA) in its last non-conference football game of the season at home, Acrisure Stadium, this Saturday. The Panthers will then play eight straight ACC games to end the regular season. Pittsburgh is 19-1 lifetime against FCS opponents. This is the first time that Pittsburgh has played…

It's around 8:30 p.m. ET last Saturday night and I'm finally getting around to watching college football on television after an epic day of sports in San Diego. I saw my Arizona Wildcats win their first road game since October 2019 (38-20 over San Diego State) in a sweltering, brand-new SnapDragon Stadium, followed by a trip to Del Mar Racetrack,…

The No. 23 Pittsburgh Panthers avenged last season's loss to Western Michigan in a 34-13 dominate victory over the Broncos. The Panthers were without starting quarterback Kedon Slovis and backup Nick Patti due to injuries, and won with redshirt freshman Nate Yarnell. Yarnell played mistake-free football, going 9-for-12 for for 179 yards and a…

Last season, Western Michigan beat the Pittsburgh Panthers, the eventual ACC champions, 44-41 at Heinz Field. Tim Lester got his best win during his tenure in Kalamazoo and conversations about a ranked WMU were out there. Tim Lester credited the win to his experience as the offensive coordinator at Syracuse. His post-game comments about the Pitt…

The subplots in the first Backyard Brawl since 2011 are bountiful. It's impossible to talk about this game without mentioning all the USC Trojans storylines, even if that program probably makes Pittsburgh coach Pat Narduzzi bristle. Yes, the Panthers lost Biletnikoff Award-winning receiver Jordan Addison to the Trojans, but they do have Kedon…

No. 12 BYU looks to continue to skyrocket up the college football rankings with a big win in Oregon on Saturday. The Cougars as well as Syracuse, Rutgers, and more are featured in our Week 2 college football parlay picks. There are a number of games between vaunted Power 5 programs on tap this Saturday, and even a couple of matchups featuring…

Week one got off to a slow start with some bad beats and tough breaks but things corrected themselves in week two as the column went 7-0! Sure hope you didn't put all that cash in your wallet as your spine might be off alignment by sitting on all that cash... seriously though, it was a good week but any good bettor knows you are never as good as…

The Volunteers head to the Keystone State in a quest for national relevancy The Opponent: The Pitt Panthers are your defending ACC champions, and are coming off an emotional win in the Backyard Brawl against West Virginia. Pitt went 10-2 in their regular season last year, and won the ACC Championship game over Wake Forest. It was the Panthers'…

This season I'll be breaking down a few of college football's biggest games each week and giving out at least one bet I like from each matchup. Let's dive into Tennessee at Pittsburgh, as the Vols look for revenge after Pitt's 41-34 victory in Knoxville last season. Tennessee vs Pittsburgh Spread, current line: If I had to bet this game against the…

COLUMBIA, Mo. - Welcome to Week 2 of college football, which doesn't appear to be as captivating as Week 1, which usually means we're in for a wild weekend. So wild that a certain future SEC team can topple a current SEC team on the Forty Acres? Let's not get too crazy here. Time for some SEC predictions. As always, you'll have to wait until Friday…

No. 17 Pittsburgh and No. 24 Tennessee are squaring off in another early-season showdown on Saturday a year after playing a thrilling Week 2 game that the Panthers won 41-34. This time, Pitt gets home-field advantage as it welcomes an SEC foe to Acrisure Stadium for the first time in program history. The afternoon contest between the reigning ACC…

Coming off a dominant 59-10 win over the Ball State Cardinals, Tennessee football is set to hit the road for the first time this year and face its first Power Five opponent as well. Things are taking off quickly for the Vols in Josh Heupel's second season. UT, ranked No. 24 in the AP Poll and one spot out of the Coaches Poll, will head to Acrisure…

The Brawl is back. It's hard to put into words what that sentence means. It's hating Jordan Addison from a distance for winning the Biletnikoff almost a decade after Stedman Bailey was snubbed. It's bus rides to Heinz Field, and one of my buddies dumping a full big gulp on a chirping Pitt fan in late November. It's Chad Johnston to Zach Abraham, 69…
