  • +24.1u in Week 7 & Week 8 CFB Early Lines: South Carolina FAVORED vs. Tennessee & BYU Letdown Spot?

    College Football's fastest-rising analyst William Patteson is joined by professional College Football handicapper John Hodge, better known as “The Sheik” and “Haji,” as The Coverboys recap their most profitable week of the season, finishing Week 7 with a 13-6 record, +24.1 units and a 35.03% ROI before turning their attention toward the Week 8 College Football betting slate.

    The guys begin by breaking down a historic weekend in the War Room, where their six strongest plays went a perfect 6-0. TCU and Colorado both delivered as Best Bets, with the Horned Frogs winning outright against Baylor and the Buffaloes nearly upsetting Utah. Hodge's second-tier selections also went 4-0, as Army demolished FAU, Auburn stunned Georgia, Boston College knocked off Pitt and Hawaii covered against New Mexico.

    Attention then turns toward one of the wildest Saturdays in College Football history, as five of the nation's top seven teams lost on the same day for the first time ever. The guys examine Auburn's upset of Georgia, Tennessee's rivalry victory over Alabama, Ohio State's quarterback concerns following its win over Indiana and BYU's dramatic victory against Notre Dame, discussing what the chaos means for the College Football Playoff picture.

    From there, The Coverboys shift their focus toward Week 8, beginning with No. 7 Ole Miss traveling to Texas, where the Longhorns enter as favorites despite consecutive losses. The guys discuss the mounting pressure in Austin, the Rebels' playoff outlook and whether Texas can avoid another disappointing result.

    The guys also examine No. 11 Tennessee's dangerous road trip to South Carolina, where the unranked Gamecocks are favored despite the Volunteers' victory over Alabama. With Tennessee coming off an emotional rivalry win and South Carolina fresh off a dominant performance against Florida, could the Vols be walking into a classic letdown spot?

    Additional Week 8 matchups include LSU at Auburn, Houston at Utah, BYU at UCF, Indiana at Michigan, Texas Tech at Cincinnati and Texas A&M at Alabama, as the guys identify early betting opportunities, potential upsets and situational trends worth monitoring.

    With at least one top-10 team losing every week this season and seven ranked road favorites facing unranked opponents, The Coverboys examine whether another weekend of chaos is on the horizon while looking to build on their biggest winning week yet.

  • CFB WEEK 6 TAKEAWAYS: Georgia SURVIVES Alabama, UCLA STUNS Oregon & Oklahoma SHOCKS Texas

    College Football's fastest-rising analyst William Patteson breaks down a chaotic Week 6 of the 2026 College Football season, featuring massive upsets, top-10 showdowns, fourth-quarter comebacks and several results that could shake up the College Football Playoff picture.

    The action starts in Tuscaloosa, where No. 2 Georgia remained undefeated with a 20-17 victory over No. 6 Alabama. Kirby Smart earned his first regular-season win over the Crimson Tide, while the Bulldogs picked up their first victory in Tuscaloosa since 2007. Patteson breaks down Georgia's late-game execution, Alabama's offensive struggles and what the result means for both SEC contenders moving forward.

    Attention then turns toward Eugene, where No. 21 UCLA pulled off one of the biggest upsets of the season with a 17-15 victory over No. 13 Oregon. Bob Chesney's Bruins forced seven turnovers, held an Oregon offense averaging over 500 yards per game to just 272 and survived two late two-point conversion attempts to escape with the win.

    From there, Patteson heads to Dallas for another unforgettable Red River Rivalry, as Oklahoma stunned No. 1 Texas, 27-24, on Tate Sandell's 47-yard field goal as time expired. Despite being held to just 238 yards of offense, the Sooners used defensive and special teams touchdowns to knock off the nation's top-ranked team.

    The Week 6 breakdown continues in Lincoln, where No. 7 Indiana erased an 11-point fourth-quarter deficit against Nebraska to extend its winning streak to 22 games. Patteson examines the Hoosiers' remarkable comeback, Nick Marsh's explosive performance and a bizarre statistical matchup that saw Nebraska dominate time of possession and total plays but still come away with a loss.

    In Lexington, Kentucky delivered another massive SEC upset, taking down No. 10 LSU, 35-34, in overtime. First-year head coach Will Stein improved to 5-1 as Kenneth Minchey's game-winning two-point conversion sent Wildcats fans storming the field and handed Lane Kiffin another frustrating loss.

    Patteson also breaks down South Carolina's dominant 38-19 victory over No. 16 Florida, highlighted by LaNorris Sellers accounting for five touchdowns, before turning toward No. 15 Tennessee's 24-17 road victory over Arkansas. DeSean Bishop rushed for 138 yards and delivered the go-ahead touchdown as the Volunteers escaped Fayetteville.

    The show wraps up with No. 19 USC spoiling Penn State's record-setting White Out in front of 114,419 fans at Beaver Stadium and No. 20 Iowa's impressive 41-24 road victory over Washington, where Kamari Moulton rushed for 208 yards and two touchdowns.

    With undefeated teams falling, conference races tightening and the College Football Playoff picture beginning to take shape, Patteson gives his biggest takeaways from another wild Saturday across the country.

    Which team impressed you the most in Week 6, and which result surprised you the most?

  • Alabama vs. Georgia, Red River Rivalry & College Football Week 6 BEST BETS

    College Football's fastest-rising analyst William Patteson is joined by Professional College Football Handicapper John Hodge, better known as “The Sheik” and “Haji,” as The Coverboys break down the Week 6 College Football betting slate with their favorite picks, trends, Concept plays and situational spots across the country.

    With five weeks of results providing a clearer picture of the College Football landscape, Hodge continues to rely on the betting systems and situational trends that have made him a successful handicapper. The guys examine public betting percentages, line movement, ranked teams in difficult road environments and potential letdown spots before identifying some of the most intriguing opportunities on the Week 6 board.

    Patteson and The Sheik begin with one of the biggest games of the College Football season as No. 2 Georgia travels to Tuscaloosa to face undefeated Alabama. Both teams enter the matchup at 5-0 with identical 4-1 records against the spread, setting up a massive SEC showdown between two national championship contenders. The guys examine the quarterback matchup between Keelon Russell and Gunner Stockton, the historical trends surrounding Kirby Smart and Kalen DeBoer, and how the weather could impact the total.

    From there, the attention shifts to the Red River Rivalry between No. 1 Texas and Oklahoma in Dallas, followed by undefeated Indiana traveling to Nebraska and No. 21 UCLA visiting No. 13 Oregon with questions surrounding the Ducks' quarterback situation. The Coverboys also examine No. 19 USC traveling to Penn State, where Lincoln Riley's struggles against the spread in true road games remain a major storyline.

    Across the SEC, the guys break down No. 10 LSU traveling to Kentucky, South Carolina visiting No. 16 Florida and No. 14 Missouri hosting Texas A&M following its massive victory over Florida. Tennessee's trip to Arkansas also presents an interesting situation for the Volunteers, with questions surrounding the quarterback position and a potential look-ahead spot before next week's rivalry matchup with Alabama.

    Haji then turns his attention to some of his favorite situational plays across the country, including Duke traveling to Georgia Tech and Eastern Michigan visiting Akron. Both games present intriguing opportunities involving public betting percentages, historical trends and potential look-ahead spots. The guys also examine No. 22 Houston at Kansas State, USF at UTSA and No. 20 Iowa's short-week trip across the country to face Washington.

    The episode winds down with Iowa State traveling to undefeated BYU, Minnesota visiting Purdue and several additional opportunities involving teams coming off emotional victories, difficult road trips and unfavorable betting trends.

    Throughout the show, Patteson and Hodge work through the spreads, totals, line movement, betting trends and situational factors behind their Week 6 card before locking in the games they actually want to play.

  • The 30-9 CFB Betting Trend You NEED to Know + Week 5 Betting Recap

    The Coverboys are back to recap a wild Week 5 of college football betting and turn the page toward a loaded Week 6 slate.

    William Patteson and professional college football handicapper John Hodge break down the good, the bad and the best from the weekend — including Houston’s brutal half-point miss, why live betting continues to be such an important part of Hodge’s approach and Tennessee making a quarterback change in its win over Auburn.

    The guys also dive into South Carolina blowing a 17-0 lead, Michigan’s loss to Minnesota, why fading BYU continues to be a mistake and several War Room trends that delivered again in Week 5.

    But the biggest trend might be the best one The Coverboys have found yet: teams entering Week 5 at least two games worse ATS than their opponent went 10-2 ATS this season. That same trend is now an absurd 30-9 ATS over the last three seasons in Week 5.

    Now attention turns to Week 6, with 16 games qualifying for that trend and another 10 potential look-ahead or sandwich spots on Saturday.

    Plus, an early look at Georgia-Alabama, Texas-Oklahoma, Indiana-Nebraska, UCLA-Oregon, USC-Penn State, LSU-Kentucky, Texas A&M-Missouri and more.

    And on Thursday’s show, Hodge will unveil his first official “Right Side” of the 2026 season — coming from the ACC.

  • Week 5 CFB Takeaways: Alabama Rolls, Mizzou STUNS Florida, Jeremiah Smith Takes Over & Tennessee's QB Change

    College Football's fastest-rising analyst William Patteson is back on The PatteFacts: A College Football Show to break down a wild Week 5 across College Football, featuring statement wins, major upsets and some big questions emerging around the country.

    Patteson starts in Starkville, where No. 7 Alabama rolled past No. 16 Mississippi State 56-23. Keelon Russell accounted for 301 total yards and four touchdowns as the Crimson Tide forced four turnovers and improved to 5-0.

    From there, the attention shifts to Iowa City, where No. 5 Ohio State handled No. 14 Iowa 31-14. Jeremiah Smith took over with 11 catches for 206 yards and two touchdowns as the Buckeyes controlled the game from start to finish.

    Then comes one of the biggest results of the weekend. One week after beating Ole Miss and climbing to No. 8, Florida was destroyed 45-17 by No. 25 Missouri. Austin Simmons threw for 340 yards, Jamal Roberts ran for 211 and the Tigers scored 35 unanswered points.

    Patteson then heads to Knoxville, where No. 17 Tennessee beat Auburn 24-14 but made a major change at quarterback. Josh Heupel turned from Faizon Brandon to George MacIntyre, while DeSean Bishop carried the Vols with 220 rushing yards and three touchdowns.

    The show continues with No. 4 Miami dominating Clemson 41-13 in Death Valley, Kentucky erasing a 17-point deficit to stun South Carolina 35-34 in overtime and Minnesota taking back the Little Brown Jug with a 20-14 upset of Michigan.

    The Week 5 recap finishes at New Ryan Field, where Northwestern stunned Penn State 34-13 behind an incredible 413 rushing yards. Penn State is now 0-2 in Big Ten play as major questions begin to surround the Nittany Lions.

  • CFB Week 5 Best Bets - Is Alabama in TROUBLE at Mississippi State?

    The fastest-rising college football analyst William Patteson is joined by professional college football handicapper John “The Sheik” Hodge to break down the biggest games, weirdest lines, betting splits, situational spots and potential traps across the country.

    The guys start with No. 5 Ohio State heading into Kinnick Stadium to face undefeated No. 14 Iowa with College GameDay in town for the first time in 20 years. Can the Hawkeyes drag the Buckeyes into an ugly, low-scoring game, or does Ohio State continue rolling?

    In the SEC, undefeated Mississippi State gets its biggest test yet with No. 7 Alabama coming to Starkville, while No. 8 Florida travels to No. 25 Missouri as just a 5.5-point favorite despite the Gators leading the nation in scoring. Is that suspicious line telling us something?

    William and Hodge also dive into Auburn-Tennessee following the Vols’ emotional loss to No. 1 Texas, Washington-USC after both teams suffered their first losses of the season, Vanderbilt catching more than three touchdowns at Georgia, BYU-TCU, Cincinnati-Arizona, UCF-Houston and much more.

    Plus, why an unranked South Carolina team being favored over No. 24 Kentucky could provide one of the strangest — and most interesting — betting spots of the entire weekend.

  • Texas-Tennessee RIGHT SIDE + CFB Week 4 Picks, Trends & Betting Concepts - The Coverboys

    College Football's fastest-rising analyst William Patteson is joined by Professional College Football Handicapper John Hodge, better known as “The Sheik” and “Haji,” as The Coverboys break down the Week 4 College Football betting slate with their favorite picks, trends, Concept plays and situational spots across the country.

    The guys start with some of Hodge's biggest betting concepts entering the weekend, including undefeated home underdogs, teams coming off outright wins as underdogs, Three Time Zone Travelers and a trend that has seen matchups between two 3-0 teams go 14-7 to the Under over the last four years. Hodge also introduces Yards Per Play as one of his favorite metrics for comparing teams as schedules begin to ramp up.

    Attention then turns toward the biggest game of the weekend, as No. 1 Texas travels to Knoxville to take on No. 14 Tennessee. Patteson and Hodge break down the matchup, Tennessee's chances as a home underdog, Faizon Brandon facing the Texas defense and whether the Vols can pull off their first win over the No. 1 team in College Football since 1985.

    From there, The Coverboys dive into No. 17 Iowa-No. 18 Michigan and its extremely low total before turning toward No. 4 Ole Miss traveling to No. 21 Florida. The Rebels enter Gainesville fresh off an emotional win over LSU, but find themselves as 3.5-point underdogs against a Florida team averaging 7.7 yards per play.

    The guys also break down Texas A&M traveling to Death Valley for a night game against No. 10 LSU, No. 20 Oregon entering the Coliseum as a road favorite against undefeated No. 12 USC and another interesting ranked matchup between Missouri and Mississippi State.

    The Week 4 breakdown continues with Oklahoma-Georgia, South Carolina-Alabama, Notre Dame-Purdue and several other spots across the country as The Coverboys search for the best betting opportunities on a loaded Saturday slate.

  • CFB Week 3 Recap + Week 4 Lines: What Does Vegas Know About Ole Miss-Florida & Texas-Tennessee?

    The Coverboys are back after another profitable weekend to recap Week 3 and break down the opening lines for a loaded Week 4 college football slate.

    William Patteson and professional college football handicapper John Hodge went 6-3 on consensus picks, while William finished 5-2-1 on his card. Hodge went 17-9 overall, including 11 live wagers, as the Coverboys War Room continues to produce opportunities throughout Saturdays.

    The live chat is proving profitable, too. One member of the War Room who rarely plays live bets went 3-0 on his three wagers, while some of the group also cashed a same-game parlay Thursday night.

    The Westgate SuperContest entries are climbing the standings after back-to-back 6-1 weeks. Entry No. 1 sits at 12-9 and jumped 299 spots from T432 to T133, while Entry No. 2 improved to 14-7 and climbed 92 spots from T118 to T26. With 778 entries in the field, the second entry is now within striking distance of the money.

    The guys also react to everything that happened in Week 3.

    Mississippi State and Kamario “Kart” Taylor continue to look like the real deal. Will Hammond and Texas Tech picked up a crucial win over Houston. NC State has to figure out how to respond after a stunning loss at Vanderbilt. Florida made a statement against Auburn. Lincoln Riley fell to 4-17 ATS in true road games at USC despite another straight-up win.

    And Ole Miss delivered a truckload of karma to Lane Kiffin in his return to Oxford.

    Then it’s time to turn the page to Week 4.

    After only five ranked matchups across the first three weeks of the season, Week 4 gives us SIX, including four in the SEC and two in the Big Ten.

    No. 1 Texas heads to Knoxville as a 5.5-point favorite against No. 14 Tennessee. No. 17 Iowa visits No. 18 Michigan with a total sitting at just 37.5. No. 4 Ole Miss has to regroup after an emotional win over LSU as the Rebels travel to No. 21 Florida, where the lower-ranked Gators opened as more than a field-goal favorite.

    Texas A&M travels to Death Valley for a night game against LSU with the Tigers laying more than a touchdown. Oregon is somehow a three-point road favorite at USC despite already suffering a loss this season. And undefeated Missouri heads to Starkville, where undefeated Mississippi State is laying 6.5.

    One trend immediately stands out: Matchups between 3-0 teams are 14-7 to the UNDER over the last four years.

    Five games qualify this week:

    Texas at Tennessee — 55.5
    Iowa at Michigan — 37.5
    Ole Miss at Florida — 60.5
    Kansas State at Cincinnati — 53.5
    Missouri at Mississippi State — 58.5

    Plus, the guys take an early look at Oklahoma traveling to Georgia with the Bulldogs laying 13.5 and a low total of 43.5, South Alabama at Kentucky, and the rest of the Week 4 board.

    Week 3 is in the books. The preseason mismatches are mostly behind us. A quarter of the regular season is already gone.

    Now the board gets serious.
