Let's beat our chest a little bit: Not only has Georgia been my No .1 team for several weeks, we've been telling you Alabama was on the verge of serious trouble.
We've also been tracking Michigan for a while as a national title contender you could buy very low on; with Penn St. being the Top-5 miss that let us down last week. But while not entirely sold on Oklahoma or Cincinnati, we're not giving up on Penn State - still in our Bet ✓ Top-10 - and Florida to keep us within walking distance of the 💰 window.
Here is another Bet ✓ heading into Week 7. (Note: Manny Diaz is still the head coach of the University of Miami football team. So, please call for help if you're still on Fantasy Island.)
1.) Georgia: Anymore questions about the Bulldogs not being worthy of top status -- at least for now? Georgia, significantly better coached than Alabama, in addition to having a deeper roster, better be careful with Florida. Track them under totals for spot value.
2.) Ohio State: The defense appears to have caught up with the offense. And that spells trouble for the rest of the Big 10 and CFP candidates. The Buckeyes and Wolverines are thisclose right now -- when it comes to deciding who has the better team.
3.) Cincinnati: The Bearcats, showing no mercy on the scoreboard in recent weeks, have a long road to travel. But will remain in the conversation - at least - if they remain undefeated.
4.) Alabama: Saint Nick gets a lot of credit -- and deservedly so -- but all this noise about having a pro coaching staff might be a bit overvalued. Especially, if you've watched Alabama get outplayed recently. Can they solve all their problems, and they have many, in time for the SEC Championship Game? Unlikely.
5.) Oklahoma: Only because the Sooners are still undefeated and riding in off a miraculous win over Texas. But uncertainty at QB and an unstable defense at this stage in the season doesn't paint a perfect picture moving forward. Keep grabbing those points vs. the Sooners.
6.) Michigan: Good, not great, on both sides of the ball has been plenty enough to make up for a few coaching mishaps. But a cleansing is in order before Ohio State week if the Wolverines are to go from being a nice story to national title contender.
7.) Iowa: Just getting by Penn State at home gives you the right to start some Big 10 beef. But is it good enough to be taken seriously as a CFP contender?
8.) Penn State: Injury at QB could derail what is a solid roster from top to bottom in Happy Valley. But don't close the door on a New Year's bowl invite just yet.
9.) Florida: The Gators still intrigue, despite losses to two undefeated teams at the time they played them. Dark horse to make CFP - if they win the rest of their games.
10.) Kentucky: I know, I know. But the Wildcats are not as good as Florida. And don't have the national allure just yet. That stuff matters with committee voters. And smart bettors.
