JoeyBets Week 12: Making Memories

2–3 minutes

As Ed spoke about in his Eagles postgame article after the Philly Front Office trip to Lambeau, we are coming off an all-time weekend. Not only did we go 6-3 in our picks, but we experienced a Green Bay football week and came out of it with an Eagles win. We couldn’t have asked for more out of this trip. As I stated1 to basically everyone that would listen to me this past weekend, “I’m just here to make friends and memories”. And boy, did we ever.


I am behind on life right now, so I need to just get straight into the picks. Let’s keep this baby rolling!

Notre Dame at Pitt (+12.5, O/U 53.5), Saturday, November 15th, 12:00 pm EST

I am going to continue to ride the Irish for all the reasons I have laid out the last couple of weeks. They need style points here and need to win convincingly. Take the Irish -12.5 and look to buy it down.

Michigan at Northwestern (+10.5, O/U 41.5), Saturday, November 15th, 12:00 pm EST

Big home dog with an over/under line that low? Yes, please. Give me Northwestern at +10.5.

UCF at Texas Tech (-23.5, O/U 47.5), Saturday, November 15th, 3:30 pm EST

Is this the top of the market on Texas Tech? This is a big number and you know what, I don’t care! Let’s ride with our boys from Lubbock and pound Tech at -23.5. Buy it down to -23.

Penn State at Michigan State (+6.5, O/U 49.5), Saturday, November 8th, 3:30 pm EST

Michigan State’s program is in shambles. Take the Nittany Lions to win comfortably here.

TCU at BYU (-3.5, O/U 50.5), Saturday, November 15th, 10:15 pm EST

BYU was completely exposed by a dominant Texas Tech team last week. That combined with the fact that TCU plays everyone tough leads me to believe this one stays close. I love getting the hook here. Pound the Frogs +3.5.

Boise State at San Diego State (-1.5, O/U 41.5), Saturday, November 15th, 10:30 pm EST

Just when you thought you knew me, I come in hot with this absolute sicko bet. I am taking the UNDER in this one. Look to buy it up to 42.

See you all next week when I’ll be back with a normal article talking nonsense about something.

Last Week: 6-3
2025 Season: 47-44-1

JoeyBets has been picking games all season and despite some tough early season breaks has been seeing the board well the last few weeks.

  • Eagles Postgame: The Real Reason Everything Went Wrong

    If you were watching on TV, you are probably thinking the Eagles lost to the Bears because of bad luck, bad decisions, and a whole lot of poor game planning. While that all happened, were you wondering why that all happened? You are all missing a big part of the story. It has so far…

  • JoeyBets Week 4: On to Chicago!

    Last week’s performance was flat out surgical. I carved up the board. As long as I keep this up, I can leave Ed and PFO high and dry, create my own publication that actually produces a profit, and then perform an extremely hostile takeover of PFO where I leave Ed destitute. But I can’t get…

  • JoeyBets Week 3: Let’s Get Spicy

    Two weeks down. We have seen enough football now to be able to make some observations and start to get a handle on who is for real, who can put up points, and most importantly who we should put our money on. There are plenty of interesting storylines going around the college football world right…

  • JoeyBets Week 2: What Did We Learn?

    Week 1 is in the books and we are off to a solid, semi-erect 4-2 start. I am knee-deep in 2027 budget reviews so I admittedly didn’t have a lot of time to come up with something cohesive where I can make fun of Ed. Believe it or not, I have to maintain a separate…

  • JoeyBets Week 1: The Men are Back

    You’ve all been wondering where I’ve been. At least I assume you all have been wondering where I’ve been. It’s tough to tell because I have gotten zero fan mail or social media engagement asking what’s happened to Joey Bets. There must be a mix up somewhere. Eventually, I’ll get to the bottom of it.…
