Will's Best College Football Bets - Conference Championship Week

2020 College Football Record:

17-6, +15.98 units

 

It’s conference championship week, and we have several good plays for you here at Bet Karma.

 

Best Bet of the Week: #20 Tulsa (+14.5) vs #9 Cincinnati 

I call Tulsa the “covering snake”. If you bet against them, they will sneak up and bite you.

I had them -2.5 against SMU back on November 14th. They were down by 17 late in the 3rd quarter, and came back to win and cover.

The very next week, they needed a hail mary just to force overtime against Tulane. Even then Green Wave betters were feeling decent, before the Golden Hurricanes ran back a pick-six to cover the 5.5 point spread.

In their last game, Navy was giving Tulsa all they could handle all game, but the Golden Hurricanes hit a FG late to win 19-6 and cover the -12.

My point: Don’t bet against Tulsa. 

I understand how good of a team Cincinnati is. Not to mention, they will be playing with some extra motivation after being dropped to #9 by the playoff committee.

However, giving 14 and a half to a top 20 team in Tulsa creates plenty of value, mainly because of their defense. The Golden Hurricanes are only allowing 19.9 points per contest. 

The Bearcats offense is legit, but Tulsa can slow them down.

Cincinnati will likely win the game but I expect Tulsa to make it interesting. Or at the very least, sneak up on Cincy betters in the end and cover the 14.5

The play: Tulsa +14.5 (-110) 2 units to win 1.82 units
