Ryan’s Ramble: Ride the wave

After a 10-3 record on last week’s picks, the confidence is riding high.

Back and better than ever for another episode of Ryan’s Ramble, your one-stop shop for all your sports betting needs here at Frogs O’ War!

I won’t shy away from it, we had a rough start to the season with a 10-17 record through three weeks of college football, but that’s all in the past. Last Saturday we finished with a 10-3 record for a major comeback.

Now an even 20-20 on this season’s picks, we’re riding a wave of confidence.

Before we get into this week’s card, here is a brief summary of this week’s “What we learned” segment:

What we learned

  • Oklahoma isn’t a shoe-in for the Big 12 title like we all thought
  • Is Clemson okay?
  • Penn State white out is the best atmosphere in college football
  • Sparty is (somewhat) back
  • Florida can win the SEC East again
  • Fresno State are legit NY6 Bowl contenders
  • I am begging Western Michigan to please change their dumb new logo

For more context on each of these talking points, be sure to check out the full length episode on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or YouTube!

I won’t dilly dally any longer, let’s get into this week’s card:
