Free College Football Picks

1% GOLD RUSH on Charlotte +135

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Take #386 Under in Nevada Wolf Pack @ Western Kentucky Hilltoppers (7p.m., Saturday, September 20 ESPN+) We went against Nevada last week for a free pick winner, as Middle Tennessee State +9 beat them straight-up. We will go back to well again on September 20 with a Nevada game, but this time take the under. Nevada has major issues at quarterback, and they have trouble scoring points this season. In their first three games they have scored 11, 17, and 13 points. WKU is a higher scoring team, but I expect Nevada to dictate the pace of this game and keep the scoring low. Take the under in this game. Do not miss out on Doc’s Sports Weekend card featuring top plays in Football, WNBA, and NASCAR. Sign-up now and let 54 years of handicapping experience work for you.

Saturday CFB Free play. My selection is on Notre Dame minus the points over Purdue at 3:30 pm et on Saturday.

Notre Dame’s season hasn’t opened the way anyone in South Bend envisioned, with back-to-back defeats including last week’s stunning upset at the hands of Texas A&M. That loss has the Irish in desperation mode as they try to salvage their College Football Playoff hopes, and I expect them to respond with urgency. Despite the 0-2 start, Notre Dame still has the talent edge in virtually every area, and staying home for a second straight week gives them an opportunity to reset and regain momentum.

Purdue has the look of a team that’s been playing over its head. The Boilermakers did well to cover against USC last week, but the underlying numbers were concerning: a paltry 50 rushing yards and three turnovers isn’t a recipe for long-term success. Their two earlier wins came against far lesser opponents, and this trip to South Bend represents a major step up in class. With Notre Dame’s back against the wall, I see this as a clear “wrong place, wrong time” situation for the Boilers.

Take Notre Dame minus the points.
