Tyler Shoemaker is back after his formula, the TShoe Index, was as good as any college football betting math in the nation last week. TShoe was 3-1 last week on his picks here, just like he was the previous week, and the Union Bet of vibes and math also hit on Houston-Texas Tech. So let's keep rolling with TShoe bets on Michigan-Iowa, Texas-Tennessee, Clemson-Cal, Georgia State-Northern Illinois and a Union Bet on New Mexico-New Mexico State.
Doug is 1-10 and a ridiculous embarrassment to all things betting, so he is making a single bet this week. If you wan to fade his vibes, you'll have at least one chance.
