There it is, the beautiful 2-0 mini sweep to get us ahead. The college football slate was not too enticing heading into the week, but we saw some really fun games. Fading BYU finally paid off as the wheels fell off from the luck sack team! On the other hand, we laid the double digits with Georgia, and the public dog did not come through. This week, we have two more College Football Picks to sweat over the weekend and cash some tickets!
Week 13 College Football Picks
Indiana (51.5) at Ohio State -12.5
The biggest game in the Big Ten outside of Ohio State and Oregon is here! Heading into the season, no one thought Indiana would be the number 5 team in the country. Coach Cignetti has his Hoosiers undefeated and in the drivers seat for the Big Ten Championship. Sadly for Indiana, they are not expected to keep it up this week! Vegas has Ohio State favored by more than a touchdown and a field goal. Personally, I believe this line is extremely fair, and it will come down to the fourth quarter.
Although Indiana is undefeated, they are yet to really play a great team. Ohio State is already battle-tested and has far more experience. At the quarterback position alone, Will Howard has played many big games in his career, while Kurtis Rourke has not. I would not be shocked if Indiana puts a quick one on the board, but I really believe Ohio State will slow down this Indiana offense. This line tells us where to go, and although it seems like too many points, I expect Ohio State to really roll this week.
The Pick: Ohio State -12.5
Colorado -3 at Kansas (59.5)
Colorado has put themselves firmly into the College Football Playoff picture. They head to Arrowhead Stadium to take on the surging Kansas Jayhawks. Over the last two weeks, Kansas has taken down ranked Iowa State and ranked BYU. Heading into the season, Kansas had massive expectations in the Big 12. They got off to a really slow start but clearly have figured things out.
People were LOUD last season when Colorado was awful. They are 7-2, on a three game winning streak, and every phase of their football team has been getting better and better over the last month. Hate Deion all you want but he has that team PLAYING. pic.twitter.com/2cUn6yc5Yq

Their opponent has a massive target on their back. From Colorado’s social media presence to their on-field performance, The Buffs have eyes on them. This will not be an easy game for both sides, but I really believe Kansas has found their stride. The offense is clicking, and they are getting three points. Sadly for them, the home field advantage will not be much playing in Arrowhead Stadium. Kansas has to win out to make a bowl game, and they have a great chance to. Roll with the hot Jayhawks getting three points.
The Pick: Kansas +3
