Kickoff looms for NFL Week 12, and betting expert Chad Millman and professional sports gambler Simon Hunter are here to deliver their final five against the spread contest bets. After all their picks and predictions this week, they deliver their very best bets. Our hosting duo looks at Monday Night Football, with Bryce Young and the Carolina Panthers taking on Brock Purdy and the San Francisco 49ers. They also argue about the Arizona Cardinals against a frustrated Jacksonville Jaguars team led by Trevor Lawrence and a matchup between Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs hosting Jonathan Taylor and the Indianapolis Colts. And who could resist betting Jared Goff and the Detroit Lions hosting Jaxson Dart and the New York Giants, or Dak Prescott's Dallas Cowboys hosting the Philadelphia Eagles? We'll hear a quick word about the big game taking place in the Windy City with the Chicago Bears facing Aaron Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers, plus Baker Mayfield taking his Tampa Bay Bucs to LA to take on Matt Stafford and the Rams. We also feature an intriguing divisional matchup between Sam Darnold and the Seattle Seahawks facing the Tennessee Titans. All their final and official betting picks, all in one fast-paced episode! #Volume

Colin gives his instant reaction to Oregon beating USC.

He argues that Oregon has officially become one of the best college football programs in the nation, despite their defense being “mid” at best. He explains why USC just doesn’t have enough good players to compete with top tier competition and that the criticisms of Lincoln Riley have been validated.

Finally, he discusses Lane Kiffin’s future and predicts he’ll take the LSU job and discusses why he loves the new UFO documentary “The Age of Disclosure”.

Colin’s top takes of the week. 

First, Colin’s joined by John Middlekauff, host of “3 and Out” to break down all the NFL action.

They start with the Broncos beating the Chiefs to blow the AFC West race wide open & they credit Sean Payton for building a stacked roster while still paying  big dead cap money to Russell Wilson, and debate whether the Chiefs dynasty is officially over (3:30).

They move to the Rams win over the Seahawks and Colin argues that if the roles were reversed and Matt Stafford had thrown 4 interceptions instead of Sam Darnold…. the game wouldn’t have been close, and they agree the Rams have Darnold’s number (16:45).

They pivot to the Bears walk-off win over the Vikings and they both agree that J.J. McCarthy does NOT look like a starting quarterback, and that the contrast between McCarthy and Caleb Williams could not be more stark.They also tip their cap to Ben Johnson for creating a winning culture in Chicago (30:00) and give kudos to both Kyle Shanahan and Brock Purdy for hanging 41 on the Cardinals in Purdy’s first game back from injury (36:45).

Then, Colin Cowherd is joined by Josh Pate to discuss the latest in College Football. They start off with this weekend's big matchup between USC & Oregon. They give their takes on who will win and the state of USC 43:45). They give their Mount Rushmore of College Football jobs (50:45) and debate whether Ohio State has an all-time great defense this season (58:00) and which teams would test the Buckeyes the most (1:03:00).
