2025 Week 14 College Football Best Bets
2025 Week 14 College Football Best Bets
Week 14. Rivalry week. The last full regular season week of the year. We still have the Army-Navy game in a standalone spot, and conference championship games next week. But this is the last time we will have 65+ FBS games until next year. And it all spans from Tuesday through Saturday. Here are my Week 14 college football best bets.

Week 13: 2-2 (-0.23 units)
Year to Date: 27-34 (-12.05 units)
(Friday) Temple (5-6) vs. North Texas (10-1)
North Texas -20.5; O/U 65.5
North Texas: Team Total Over 42.5 (-110)
Eric Morris accepted the position of Oklahoma State head coach earlier this week. Unlike the confusion surrounding Lane Kiffin and Ole Miss, all parties have agreed for Morris to finish the season out before assuming the role in Stillwater. The Mean Green have been on a role offensively, scoring over 50 points in four of their last five. Temple started the season hot, but fallen off lately, losing their last three. Two of the three came to Tulane and ECU, where they surrendered 82 combined points. I think North Texas clears the number on senior day.
(Friday) #3 Texas A&M (11-0) vs. #16 Texas (8-3)
Texas +2.5; O/U 52.5
Over 52.5 (-108)
Friday has some games with conference championship and college football playoff implications, and this one in Austin falls in that category. This is the best SEC team the Aggies have played this year; somehow, A&M will only play one team in conference play with a winning conference record. Since Mike Elko took over in College Station, the over has cashed in each of the eight road games. The average score in that span is 69.5 PPG, with each game clearing 50 points. The Aggies have allowed 28 PPG on the road in conference games this year. For the Longhorns, they have allowed 35.3 PPG in their last four games, with each opponent hitting 31 points. I think this one clears the total Friday night.

#12 Miami (FL) (9-2) vs. #22 Pittsburgh (8-3)
Pittsburgh +7; O/U 49.5
Over 49.5 (-112)
It will be a chilly one at Acrisure Field, and this one has plenty of ramifications in the ACC Championship race. Since Mason Heintschel took over as Pitt’s quarterback, the Panthers average 40.3 PPG at home. Obviously, this excludes the disaster of a game against Notre Dame. But remember: Pat Narduzzi told us that game didn’t matter; these last two games do. Miami’s Carson Beck has not been the best on the road, but Miami can still put up points. They have averaged 27.3 PPG in those three road games in conference play. I think this one can get high scoring.

#1 Ohio State (11-0) vs. #15 Michigan (9-2)
Michigan +10; O/U 43.5
Under 43.5 (-105)
This is a game I used to love betting the over for. There was a decade long stretch where one of the teams scored at least 30 points. But now I’m on the other side for this iteration of The Game.
It will be a chilly game with a chance of snow later on. Ohio State’s top receivers missed last week’s game, but will return this week. But my biggest cause for doubt for scoring in this one comes down to the quarterbacks. This is by far the biggest game for either Julian Sayin or Bryce Underwood. Underwood is at least at home; even so, the Wolverines average 23 PPG in their three home Big Ten games. Sayin has been solid this year and should be in New York for the Heisman Trophy ceremony. But after a conference schedule that lacked big games, I think the Buckeyes could start slower than usual. I’m on the under in this one.

Week 13: 1-2 (-0.18 units)
Year to Date: 18-26 (+3.18 units)
#22 Pittsburgh vs. #12 Miami (FL) +210
Miami is 7-9 in the month of November under Cristobal. And while I believe the Hurricanes are the more talented team, we heard Pitt head coach, Jeff Narduzzi, say before the Notre Dame game: the only games that matter are the last two. Pitt handled business last week against Georgia Tech, and I think they can this week against Miami.
Kentucky @ Louisville +124
Louisville has faded down the stretch, losing their last three. Last week’s game was an abysmal performance. For Kentucky, they are one win away from bowl eligibility. I think Kentucky can win the Governor’s Cup for their sixth win this year.
Virginia Tech @ #18 Virginia +285
The Hokies have won 19 of the last 20 against Virginia, including the only three games Virginia was favored. I think they pull the upset to ruin the Hoos chances for an ACC Championship appearance.
Auburn vs. #10 Alabama +190
The Crimson Tide are just 2-2 in their last four at Jordan-Hare. Kalen DeBoer is just 5-4 on the road since taking the Alabama job last year. Auburn needs a win to go bowling. I think they make it 6-6 on the back of a strong defensive performance.
