CFB 1/2: Forget the bowl games, the best CFB bet is Friday

CFB YTD 11-10 +4.85 units

4* GOY 1-0 +4.0 units

3* 1-0 +3.0 units

1* 9-10 -2.15 units

Bowls/Playoffs 5-1 +8.9 units

I improved to 5-1 in the bowls (including a 4* and 3* win) with Texas' cover over Michigan Friday.  I continue to focus on the non-playoff bowls as I keep contending they are the best betting opportunities out there.  Alas, there are no more after Friday.

1* Navy -7 (-130)

This line keeps going up and for good reason.  Everything points to Navy.  Service academies are on a 19-3 SU bowl run.  Navy has covered its last seven bowls.  There is obvious logic for this.  The academies don't have opt-outs because of the portal and have the advantage of not being rusty because of the lateness of the Army-Navy game.  Here, Cincinnati has key opt-outs including the QB and the backup threw only a few passes all year.  On the other hand, Navy QB Horvath is a dynamic runner.  Cincinnati fell apart down the stretch in the Big 12, losing its last four games by a combined 101 points!  True, Navy had a soft schedule in the American conference which was very weak this year.  But they know how to win.   A lot of rain in the forecast which will aid Navy's run-heavy option offense.

Good luck Griswold.  

Love navy. Let’s hope they rip them and make this one easy 

Good luck Griswold$$$

whole world on navy

navy does not have anyone opting out  they do not do that   thats my opinion on that game

Won again to go 6-1 in bowls (haven't played a playoff game yet) for +9.9 units turning a crappy regular season around to make the whole year very profitable.  Not sure I have another CFB play as I like Miami but the number is racing upward and may be too rich.  I just love the lesser bowls, but alas, they're done.
