Fairway’s Forecast and Week 13 College Football Underdog Picks
Following our 3-0 ATS sweep in Week 11, we went 1-1 in our Week 12 NCAA football underdog picks, but that was a bit disappointing again. Nebraska (+14.5) went toe-to-toe with Wisconsin in a near even yardage and stats game, but somehow did not cover in a 37-21 defeat.
