Week 0 is in the books and we survived it. Now we get five straight days of college football to open Week 1, and Nate walks the entire board.

First, a Week 0 recap: a profitable weekend at 3-1, Belichick and North Carolina taking down TCU in Dublin, Stanford finding a passing game, North Dakota State announcing themselves in FBS, and one ugly no-show that cost us the biggest bet of the week.

Then it's the full Week 1 card. Thursday and Friday night action including the Colorado live sweat in Atlanta, Michigan State and Toledo, and USC hosting Fresno State. Saturday gets Coastal Carolina at West Virginia, East Carolina at Alabama, Auburn and Baylor, Marshall at Penn State, Texas State in the Austin heat, Tulsa and Oklahoma State, Clemson at LSU in Death Valley, UNLV at Hawaii, and UCLA up at Cal. Sunday brings the Apple Cup, Louisville and Ole Miss in Nashville, and Notre Dame taking on Wisconsin at Lambeau. Monday closes it out with SMU at Florida State.

Plus the thing nobody wants to hear in Week 1: these numbers have been baked for months. There is very little edge left. Nate covers how to bet a picked-over board without lighting your bankroll on fire before the season really starts.

One official play locked in, several strong leans, and a few games that look like bets and absolutely are not.

College football is finally back. Nate breaks down all eight FBS vs FBS games on the Week 0 board, locks the NT Sports futures portfolio for the season, and walks through the three bets on the card.

One official model play, two fun plays, and a handful of games where the number moved past the edge before we could get there. Plus early-season bankroll advice for anyone tempted to fire twelve bets before we've seen a single snap.

On the card this week:
• NC State +5.5 (+102, Novig) as the official model play, opened at 7.5 and moved two full points
• Stanford money line at -122 after a profit boost, against a Hawaii team that hasn't won a non-conference road game as a dog under Timmy Chang
• North Carolina / TCU under 49.5 in Dublin, half unit, boosted

Week 0 games covered:
North Carolina vs TCU at the Aer Lingus Classic in Dublin, San Jose State at USC, NC State at Virginia, Jacksonville State at North Dakota State, Sacramento State at Eastern Michigan, Hawaii at Stanford, New Mexico State at Florida State, Memphis at UNLV.

Futures portfolio, locked:
Five Power Four win totals, ten Group of Six win totals, seven conference championship futures, and four Heisman longshots. Every number, every price, every book.

Good Bets. Good Times.

Five win totals locked. One position sold. All 32 teams in 70 minutes.

The card as it stands:

Rams over 10.5 (-140) | market now 11.5

Eagles under 10.5 (-125) | now -145

Jets over 5.5 (+101)

Steelers over 7.5 (-130) | now -145

Chargers under 10.5 (-145) | now -150

Four of those five have moved our way. One of them moved a full number.

There is also a bet from the May episode that is no longer on the board.

The model came down over the summer, the number stopped justifying the ticket, and we got out. That one is in here.

And there is one lean sitting at a double digit edge that did not get fired. Yet. If a sixth win total goes on the card this year, it is that team.

Also in this episode:

Where the Super Bowl and conference futures board sits right now, and why the numbers are tighter than last August

engals, Bears, Falcons, Broncos, Patriots, Titans: five leans we walked through and did not bet

Six conferences. 69 teams. Eight bets already on the board. This is the last college football preview of the summer and it's the one for the sickos.

Nate runs the full G6 card: American, Mountain West, Sun Belt, Pac-12, Conference USA and the MAC. Win totals, conference futures, a projected winner and a dark horse for every league, plus which G6 team is actually taking the playoff spot.

Bets on the card:
Navy under 8.5 (-158)
North Texas under 5.5 (+120)
Air Force over 6.5 (-160)
Air Force to win the Mountain West (+550)
Nevada over 4.5 (+130)
Hawaii under 7.5 (-150)
Marshall over 7.5 (+125)
Fresno State over 6.5 (+120, DraftKings 11-game schedule)

Leans not yet fired: a Miami of Ohio over sitting at plus money, and a Conference USA win total Nate keeps circling and keeps putting down.

Also in here: why an 11-win team is a live under, why the Pac-12 flex game means you have to check whether your book is posting an 11 or 12 game schedule before you bet a win total, and a walk through the Week 0 board on August 29.

The Big Ten preview is here, and it's the last power 4 conference stop before we dive into the G6.

Nate breaks down the top five betting favorites to win the league: Ohio State (+190), Indiana (+270), Oregon (+290), USC (+1500) and Michigan (+1500). Every one of them is a pass, and he explains exactly what number each team would need before it becomes a bet.

Then the dark horse. A team outside the big three sitting at 20-1 with an experienced roster, a coaching staff that brought half its old team with it, and a schedule that misses Ohio State, Indiana and Oregon.

After that it's rapid fire through the rest of the conference, from Washington all the way down to Purdue, plus a win total bet on a team most people have already written off.

Three bets on the board from this episode. All of them logged and public.

Next week: the G6 and the independents, Nate's favorite episode of the year.

New episodes weekly. Next up: the Big Ten.

The SEC preview is here — nine conference games, a chip on the shoulder after three straight Big Ten titles, and a conference title race that's tighter than the odds suggest.

Nate walks through the top five betting favorites to win the SEC, plus a dark horse play outside the top five, and rapid-fires every remaining team's win total and conference price.

What we cover:

• Texas (+300) — why the schedule kills them and where we land on the 9.5 under
• Georgia (+320) — best roster, best continuity, best coach, and the play we already made
• Alabama (+850) — the QB battle, a 3.4 YPC run game, and five new O-line starters
• LSU (+850) — Lane Kiffin's return to Oxford and the brutal opening stretch
• Texas A&M (+850/+1000) — Marcel Reed, two new coordinators, and a rebuilt trench
• Oklahoma (+1300) — our dark horse flyer and why the market is sleeping on this defense
• Rapid fire: Ole Miss, Tennessee, Florida, Missouri, Auburn, South Carolina, Vanderbilt, Kentucky, Mississippi State, Arkansas

Two bets on the board. Zero SEC win totals — and we explain why.

College football preview season rolls on at Good Bets Good Times, and this week we're diving into the chaos of the Big 12 — the Monster Energy Big 12, if you're nasty.

Nate breaks down the top betting favorites to win the conference — Texas Tech, BYU, Utah, Kansas State, and Houston — plus a 30-to-1 dark horse worth a sprinkle and a rapid-fire run through the rest of the league.

We dig into futures prices, win totals, and the schedule spots that actually matter: why Texas Tech at plus-100 is a live buy even after the Sorsby saga, where the real value sits in the Kansas State market, why the top-heavy favorites are all a pass at their number, and the TCU long shot Nate's betting on Jaden Craig to pop. Plus win-total plays on Kansas State, Oklahoma State, and a few leans we're still waiting on a better price to pull the trigger.

No touts, no Vegas-insider nonsense. Just clear football betting talk for degens and weekend warriors who want to win a little more, lose a little less, and have a damn good time doing it.

Next week: the Big Ten.

College football preview season kicks off on Good Bets Good Times, and we're opening with the ACC.

Nate breaks down the top five betting favorites to win the conference — Miami, SMU, Louisville, Clemson, and Virginia — plus a dark horse worth a small sprinkle and a rapid-fire run through the rest of the league.

We dig into futures prices, win totals, and schedule spots that actually matter: why the Miami favorite number is a pass, where the real value sits in the SMU and Louisville markets, whether Clemson is a brand-name price or a live buy, and the Virginia bet that's already on the card. Along the way, a quick lesson on why you can bet a team's under and their conference futures at the same time — median outcome vs. tail.

No touts, no Vegas-insider nonsense. Just clear football betting talk for degens and weekend warriors who want to win a little more, lose a little less, and have a damn good time doing it.

Next week: the Big 12.
