College Football Free Picks
Oregon State (-4) at NEVADA
By Jackson Reyes, Featured Handicapper
Nailed my 80 Dime NFC Game of the Month on the Bears, who lambasted the Panthers on Sunday without a problem.
Tonight I have something just as strong in the NFL, with the New Orleans Saints visiting Kansas City to play the two-time defending champion Chiefs.
Let's make it two straight with another 80 Dime NFL Winner, as we close Week 5 with a winner.
I love the value I see here.

MATCHING Sunday's 80 Dime NFC Game of the Month
Bears (-4) 36-10 over Carolina
My free winner for Saturday is the Oregon State Beavers against the Nevada Wolfpack.
Sitting at 4-1, the Beavers are coming in after outlasting the Colorado State Rams in double-overtime, a 39-31 win. They have the sixth-best rushing offense, accumulating 264.4 yards per game, and that'll help in Reno.
With a ball-control offense, the Beavers will be able to keep the ball out of Nevada's hands. Oregon State ranks No. 1 in the nation in time of possession, with an average hold time of 36:37.
And if the Pack can't get anything going on offense, it certainly won't be able to keep up with a Beavers team averaging 30.0 points per game.
Nevada is 2-4 already, and it's only two wins came against Troy and Eastern Washington. It's lost to SMU, Georgia Southern, Minnesota and San Jose State. This is an undisciplined bunch that ranks near the bottom in penalties, and that doesn't help its cause against this Beavers team.
Lay the small number on the road.
